I think Ringer hut was great. Nothing too special, I'd say it's your stereotypical ramen shop in Ala Moana. The rice sets were great! The ramen having corn in it was a bit odd for me. But the Takoyaki was my favorite order today. The servers were nice and accommodating when I asked to make my ramen extra spicy! read more

Ringer Hut - Spicy ramen and tonkatsu set and Takoyaki - Salad Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is a good place for someone who wants to have a quiet lunch, away from the noise of a food court. There are plenty of seats available, although some are just wooden benches, which can be a bit uncomfortable. We ordered the Nagasaki Sara Udon. It came with lots of vegetables, which made it feel healthy, but we were hoping for a bit more depth of flavor and umami. A few days later, we noticed that we were charged $2 more than the tip we had written on the receipt. It may have been a simple mistake, but we hope it was not intentional. read more

I used to go to Ringer Hut in the Bay Area. I liked the tonkatsu that they served way back. It was a really enjoyable meal. With fond memories I was happy to find they were in Ala Moana. I was finally able to go and I get a tasty lunch for a decent price. I enjoyed the donburi and they have a nice selection of beers. Things have changed since long ago in the Bay Area, but this is still an enjoyable meal. read more

I visited Ringer Hut for Dinner on Sunday. We arrived around 5:30pm and the restaurant was fairly empty, but filled up pretty quickly around 6:00pm. We got the Edamame, Karamaro Champon with a side of Shrimp Tempura, and the Tonkatsu and Chicken Katsu Set Meal. Everything tasted great. The chili oil and vinegar served with the Champon worked really well with it. However, the bottom of the Tonkatsu was soggy since it was sitting directly on the serving plate. Since this restaurant is located in Ala Moana, there is ample parking. Overall, I was very satisfied with the meal and will definitely be coming back in the future. read more

My family and I meet up with some friends for lunch at...RINGER HUT located in the Ala Moana Shopping Center ground level Mauka (mountain side) near Brug Bakery. It is a very nice, clean and spacious atmosphere. For me, the service fell short. When we first walked in, we were greeted and sat right away. That was good. However, The servers weren't very friendly or attentive to us. Some of us waited quite awhile for our food to come out and there was no update on the delay of our food. Even though my food was brought out late, it did taste yummy. I ordered the chicken oyaku don buri. The portion was generous and filling. My family and friends enjoyed their dishes as well. read more

Ringer hut is a huge chain in Japan and I was pleased to see them in Hawaii. From Nagasaki to Honolulu Ringer Hut brings Japanese-Chinese noodles to Hawaii. The style of noodles is either crispy or soft with a thick broth that coats pretty much everything. I however, gravitate more towards the traditional Japanese style Ramen noodles. The broth is so savory yet not salty at all. Their pork Kunkuni is amazing! The fat from the pork is rendered perfectly and the meat practically dissolves in your mouth. Service is impeccable and lots of parking being in, Ala Moana shopping center. read more

Located on the bottom floor of Ala Moana near the Massage Palace, Ringer Hut is a Japanese restaurant with noodles, gyoza, curry, and more options. The restaurant itself is well-lit, spacious, and feels pretty clean. We have been able to be seated each time we have walked in, but the restaurant has not been empty any time we have been. The service is quick and the people working there are efficient. The menu has a good number of options, with some combos available too. I like the tantanmen so I have gotten that each time. It is tasty, a good portion, and consistent each time I have had it. It is about $16, which does not feel crazy but also does not really feel like a deal either. Friends have gotten other ramen dishes and have liked them, and the tempura. We'll be back again! read more

This is one of my favorite places in the Ala Moana Center. It's on the ground floor with plenty of mall parking in front. The staff greets you as you walk in. They're very friendly and accommodating with a choice of seating. The restaurant is very clean and modern and the view in the kitchen also looks the same. We had the Special Udon, Karaage Set, and Nagasaki Saraudon. We did a little substitute with couple of our dishes and they were very accommodating. The soup base is very flavorful and the rest of the food is amazingly tasty and fresh. This is my first review but I've been here several times and always consistently good. read more

I wasn't expecting Ringer Hut to be this good! We got the Katsu Donburi, Spicy Miso Ramen, and Nagasaki Saraudon. All of the dishes came out piping hot and were delicious! The Katsu Donburi reminded me of classic ones I've had at Japanese restaurants, and the Saraudon is so unique. We also got some gyoza and yakimeshi, which were great add-ons for our already filling meals. The best part was how affordable these large portions were. Vibe: The staff is so hard working and nice. Service is fast and I would definitely come back! There are lots of tables in the restaurant and a bathroom near the kitchen. Parking: Ala Moana Center has a large free parking lot, making it easy to come to Ringer Hut. read more

I enjoy coming here because it's quiet and they have my favorites tonkatsu and shrimp tempura. It's clean, well kept and affordable. The servers are fast and the food comes out quickly. It's a nice go to place when you don't want a big noisy restaurant or to sit in the food court. read more

Ringer Hut - Tonkatsu Set and 1 Shrimp Tempura - Salad Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My boyfriend and I came in on a Sunday afternoon during lunch time and was seated right away. The restaurant gives marugame udon vibes. There's a good amount of seating for a variety of party sizes. At first, they were really attentive by taking our orders and giving us our waters. Also it didn't take too long for us to get our order. We ordered the Katsu Curry, Side order of Chicken Karaage and the Katsudon. Everything tasted delicious and had great flavor. Very similar to what you'd get at any other Japanese run restaurant. However, I was super impressed by the Chicken Karaage. I wasn't expecting the side order to have that many pieces and to be so juicy, crispy, and packed with flavor! It went well with the curry which was more on the spicy and savory side. Once we got our food, it took a bit to get our check. But overall, I would come back again. read more

I was so excited to try this spot when we stumbled upon it. Had the Nagasaki Sarudon for $17.50 and it was just okay. It had a lot of veggies on top which I loved but it was cooked with too much corn starch. Hubby had the katsudon $17.50 and although it had great flavor, it had too much broth with it that it drenched the rice and almost made it soupy. The inside is very clean and the servers were wonderful. Unfortunately, it won't be one of the good spots o would come back to when I'm at Ala Moana. read more

Been here twice & was so impressed with their Udon! They have other menu items but I always like Udon. It wasn't that crowded at 5:00pm and service was nice & efficient. Clean tables and decent restroom. I ordered the Udon Special with Tempura. Very tasty broth! I subbed pork for egg second time dining here. It's great and affordable... under $19 - try'um! read more

Reasonably priced, clean, tasty, nicely decorated, a/c, and a sit down restaurant - Ringer Hut is one of the best places in Ala Moana Center to grab a quick bite. Specializing in champon, Ringer Hut also has udon, ramen, rice bowls, katsu, curry, and gyoza for sale (some with cheese and toppings). The udon was good, a chewy, medium thick noodle with a clear broth. Added a fried gyoza side and that was a winner. Also got the chicken karaage appetizer and that was not to be missed. The chicken pieces were gigantic but still moist and tasy inside while the outside was crispy and not too salty. Would return again just for those. read more

Delicious food, good service, & clean and bright ambiance! My bf & I went to Ringer around 1:00pm & the restaurant was pretty full. We were seated right away & our food came within 15 minutes. I tried the spicy karamaro champon ramen & my bf tried the niku udon. We both really enjoyed our meals & we're saying how we'd definitely go back soon. Prices are super decent too, so if you're ever at Ala Moana & need a quick bite, I would highly recommend Ringer Hut! read more

Ringer Hut - Nagasaki champon $17 - Salad Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My parents LOVE ringer hut and will actively go there just for the selection of Coedo beers, which you have to ask for the "secret menu" for. They have a great selection of ramen, rice sets, and appetizers, and very fast service, meaning we can often sit our family of 5 with no wait at all. It is located in the mall, so parking is as one would expect. Not a whole lot of foot traffic considering how good the food is, but definitely a steady crowd that flows through. Service is fast and good, and we always enjoy being able to look into the open window into their kitchen to spy on all the delicious things coming out. read more

I absolutely LOVE Ringer Hut , especially following its transition from the Food Court to a dedicated restaurant space within Ala Moana, conveniently located near Marshalls. This upgrade has significantly enhanced the dining experience, offering a more comfortable and inviting atmosphere. My preferred selection includes the spicy Nagasaki champon, saraudon, fried rice, and karaage chicken. If you are at Ala Moana, please go visit them! Food is exceptional and authentic, service is great, and it's super clean. Love love love Ringer Hut read more

Both times I've eaten here were within an hour of them closing but the staff are always really nice and friendly. The inside is nicely lit and the interior is very cozy. Both visits I've ordered the same things for my boyfriend and I, the Special Udon and the Chicken Katsu Curry. Both are so good and filling. The Special Udon has a variety of toppings but the mochi, seasoned tofu skin, and thin beef really stand out for me! Not to forget that it also has two pieces of shrimp tempura. The chicken katsu is a good classic as well if you're not feeling noodles and soup. read more

We ordered the tempura udon and curry udon. The udon was alright but they were pretty small. I think a man would definitely be hungry afterwards. There were 3 Skinny shrimp for the tempura, also a little bit of wakame. The curry for the curry udon was not very flavorful, maybe because it seemed diluted with a cornstarch thickener. Only 2 pieces of kamaboko came with this bowl. Left disappointed and still hungry. Oh well. read more

They also had a special $17.99 for Tendon: 3 pieces of shrimp tempura with a fish cake tempura, potato, green pepper, etc. Very generous serving that I could not finish! This is also served with Miso Soup. Ringer Hut is a nice and clean restaurant with its own bathroom! It is located on the street level, Mauka, of Ala Moana Shopping center next to Jeans Warehouse!

I haven't actually been able to try champon at other places so I don't really know how to compare this to other places. I did appreciate how the Nagasaki Champon had a ton of vegetables. The broth tasted very clean and it wasn't heavy at all - very light. Noodles were thicker but I enjoyed it and was cooked well. I thought this place was pretty decent, I would like to come back and try different items. From my understanding champon is the Japanese food for sumo wrestlers when they train for competition - like that was their diet. I mean I can kind of see it - I'm glad this place shrank it down to a smaller size so it's able to eaten in one sitting LOL read more

Food has the Okinawa-ken taste and preparation Service is typical of an establishment in a shopping mall Ambiance is typical of an establishment in a shopping mall. Here is my story: Meeting a couple friends of mine and Ringer Hut was the selection of place to dine. (This turned out to my be first visit EVER to Ringer Hut) We got there before the noon hour and without surprise got pushed and rushed to give them our order (it was like order, eat and go please). It's okay as I understand their wanting to turn the tables as this place as I understand usually has a waiting list. Food came, we ate, patrons came and went... we finally left around 2 pm... LOL they didn't rush us out even if they rushed us to order. We had fried gyoza, Kaki Udon, Miso Ramen and Shoyu Ramen. Yup! It was a ramen kind of day. Broth good and hearty. Gyoza okay.... Would I return? YUP read more

We came in on Monday around 2pm and they weren't very busy. They are located in Ala Moana Shopping Center on level 1 of the Ewa Wing. The interior is spacious with lots of seating. Staff are friendly but not very efficient. We were served quickly but never had our waters refilled. Also as the food came out empty plates were not removed from the table to make room for new items. Food is okay. The chicken Karaage are huge (didn't get a pic) but not very flavorful. The broths of both the Champon and Ramen were absolutely delicious but the noodles were so starchy that I wasn't able to take more than a bite. The curry was good, nothing amazing and you get a small amount of protein with it. The tempura was excellent! Favorite dish by far, it was light, crisp, and not oily at all. The takoyaki was good and had a nice amount of octopus in it. The gyoza was good but I didn't love topping, next time I would try a different flavor. Overall not something I would go out of my way to get again but if I were in the area I would go back for the tempura. read more

If you're like me and don't know what a Ringer Hut is, then let me tell you it's a restaurant that was founded in Nagasaki, Japan in 1974 and now has expanded to over 500 locations. Their specialty is the Nagasaki Champon; a soul food noodle dish with pork, seafood, and vegetables that originated from Nagasaki and is popular in Japan. Ringer Hut is located in Ala Moana Shopping Center facing Kona Street. We walked in for dinner and were seated quickly. We all have our go-to order when it comes to Japanese food so it was a quick decision for us, but there is a nice selection of noodles, donburi, curry rice, and set meal choices along with gyoza and other side dishes. Most menu items are under $20.00. The food came quickly and we all enjoyed our meals. Service was efficient and friendly. The only downside was there was no dessert menu, but they do serve beer, wine, and whiskey with soda. We really enjoyed our experience and would recommend it for a casual dinner read more

Good Japanese food located at the Ewa Mauka first floor of Ala Moana Shopping Center near Lupicia Tea and Brug bakery. Great tonkatsu/chicken katsu combo teishoku that added a fresh green salad to the meal as well! We got a 5 piece karaage chicken appetizer that was so large, we took it home for later. Others ordered udon that looked pretty good. This is a good restaurant that would get more foot traffic in a different location. Try it for a sit down meal or just order take out. On a week night, there is plenty of parking in the area and the vibe is mellow. Very clean too. read more

Ringer Hut has upgraded from the food court to a full sit down restaurant Yelp BFF and I were thoroughly impressed. The extensive menu carries a variety of noodles, fried items, and curry. I ordered the spicy shoyu ramen and Yelp BFF ordered the okonomiyaki style saraudon. The spicy shoyu ramen was SPICY! I was expecting a mild spice, but there's a kick to it. The okonomiyaki style saraudon had crispy noodles and topped with loads of assorted stir fried veggies and meat. The second time we visited, I ordered the agemochi udon, which I really enjoyed. The broth was rich, the udon has a nice chewy texture, but the stretchy mochi made the entire dish. Definitely recommend! (alongside a side of gyoza) The ambiance is very cozy and the wallpaper gave me a Crazy Rich Asians vibe. I think this is our new go to spot. Thanks for reading my reviews! Let me know what I should try next! read more

For a guy who goes to Japan half a dozen times a year and always look for tasty food when I am there, I find this place a pleasant surprise! I tried: Karamaro Champon Sara Udon Both were very good. The Sara Udon was very crunchy and both dishes were tasty. I was in Nagasaki in summer and too bad I didn't get to try these dishes and I am glad I got a second chance when away from Japan. Highly recommended! read more

We usually visit Ringer Hut for lunch when shopping at Ala Moana Shopping Center. I usually order the Hokkaido style crispy noodles. Today, I ordered the hot ramen style. Omg, it was so good....lots of taste, generous amount of noodles, lots of veggies. It had shoyu pork and two shrimp as well. This is my new favorite, hearty and warming. The service is fast and friendly. The ambience is like a typical ramen shop slightly noisy, but not too loud. The only complaint i have being a disabled senior, the center tables have chairs that slip on the floor, a bit scary and unstable. The bench seats against the wall is more stable. Still tho, this restaurant is are go to for lunch. read more

I really hope to be happy with my meal this time around. Sadly, I was not impressed. I came once when Ringer Hut first opened this location and I didn't care too much for the ramen. It was a bit salty. This time, it's been almost a year and its still meh. I ordered a donburi and the rice was mushy. Of course, I didn't finish the rice. I ate all the tempura. The tempura was good. It was nice and fresh and crispy. Service was okay. I didn't think the servers were too quick with their job. The server led me to the table and I immediately noticed dirty oily spots on my bench and I wiped it down with the napkin on the table. The server continued to walk away and another server brought water. Nothing mentioned about trying to help wipe down the seat for me or bringing me a new napkin for my meal. Oh well. read more

Husband wanted to check this place out so we went around 1:30-2pm. Was seated immediately since there were only a few tables occupied. Casual dining with fast service. I ordered the Nagasaki Saraudon and my husband ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen & Chicken Katsu Curry Rice with a side order of Chicken Karaage. I enjoyed the Saraudon because of the thin, deep fried noodles that were underneath the slurry of veggies & protein. Reminds me of Hong Kong style noodles but thinner & more crispy. The sauce with the veggies on top was a little bland so I had to add vinegar and pepper that came with it. Veggies were abundant and crispy, protein was tender but there wasn't much of it. The texture of the noodles helped me eat the entire thing. I tried the Tonkotsu ramen and it was okay. Not that deep of a bone broth flavor and the Kakuni wasn't that tender. The bowl is small so good thing he got another dish. The Chicken Katsu Curry rice was good. Tasted like curry house but a little bit thinner. Katsu was fried well but the pieces were on the smaller side. Chicken Karaage was huge!! We both enjoyed this one. Fried well and juicy and tender on the inside. Huge chunk of chicken. Must order this one! Meal was okay. A little on the pricier side. Good experience but probably would not come here again. read more
