    Ramen takes 1.5 minutes to cook. Tsukemen took 6 minutes to cook
    Nadine C.

    Happy 40th Anniversary to a local Hawaii business! Sun Noodle (located in Kalihi, Honolulu) advertised a giveaway on Instagram. They were giving away forty ramen kits and I happened to be one of the winners! I responded to the Instagram message from Sun Noodle - they offered delivery or pick up. I chose to pick up and take my prize to my mom's house to share with my family. The factory is located in the industrial part of Kalihi with no parking. Luckily, the gial who answered the phone quickly ran outside to greet me, went into the refrigerator section, and returned with a heavy box of ramen kits. When I opened the box at home, I was surprised to see 16 servings of a variety of noodles! Besides Ramen, there was soba, Okinawan soba, and tsukemen style (dipping) noodles! It was very challenging to decide which one to eat first because all of the soup bases sounded delicious! A toss up between the Garlic shoyu and the miso, I finally decided on Seafood tonkotsu. The tsukemen noodles take six minutes to cook. The dipping sauces use 1.5 cups of hot water to reconstitute. (I saved the spicy tantan for my brother-in-law who ate two servings!) My niece loved the pork broth and thin ramen noodles which only take 1.5 minutes to boil! Everyone loved the firmness and chewiness of each type of high quality noodle! Thank you to Sun Noodle for the very generous gift! My family and I really had a fun foodie event by decorating our own noodle bowls! To Sun Noodle: May you enjoy many more years of success and happiness! Congratulations on your 40th Anniversary! Note: frozen noodles may keep for a couple of months. If kept refrigerated, the noodles will last a few weeks. Hint: if you don't want to order from the factory, you may find Ramen Kits at Don Quixote!

    Ippudo pickup - broth from NYC
    Aron N.

    This review is for the Ippudo ramen kit Sun Noodle is selling. These kits are $20 each and the broth is from the famous Ippudo Ramen in Japan, but this one is from New York. I have been to Ippudo so many times. First in Fukuoka and later practically every time I have been to Japan so I am very familiar with the taste. Ippudo remains one of my most favorite ramen along with Ichiran and some others. So when I heard they had Ippudo kits, I had to get my hands on some. So, let's get this over with.... is it good YES! Look, you are NOT going to get the same type of ramen from Japan from 3 frozen packets. Everything is frozen - the broth, the tare (sauce) the char siu and even the noodles actually. NO instructions were provided! Luckily online reviews said heat the broth for around 10 minutes. I put the sauce and char siu into the water around the 7 minute mark. I cooked the noodles around 2 min 30 secs. When you go to Ippudo, the bowl is BEAUTIFUL!!!! It just looks as good as it tastes and if you are lucky enough to the go the Ippudo in Osaka by the Osaka Hilton, it is AMAZINGLY GREAT! Make that INSANELY GREAT! SO DARN GOOD! So this kit, makes a bowl that doesn't look anything like Ippudo. It looks exactly like what you think - broth, noodles, a couple of piece of pork and the spicy sauce. Missing is the all the rest of the toppings - kind of weird since they do provide these missing toppings in some other online kits. In the end, the noodles were better than any Sun Noodles I have every had. I honestly didn't know they could make noodles that rocked this good. The broth was good; It did not taste like Ippudo's killer broth but it was good! If you use the entire sauce packet, the entire bowl was red which I don't recall in Japan. But the entire experience was good. There was lots of delicious noodles! $20 is kind of expensive for a ramen bowl, but this is probably the best "kit" and ramen I have made in my house. It's so much better than the $10 Ichiran noodles you can buy at Marukai. This kit is better than any ramen I have made at my house from a packet or otherwise. So is it worth it? I think so. It was really good... Thank you Sun Noodles for making this available. This will just have to do until I get back to Japan....

    Omg went to Sun Noodle Factory to pick up ramen. There is a sign saying need to order 24 hour in advance . I called them while still in their driveway and the very nice lady who took my order asked if I was downstairs. I said I was and she said no problem I will her the order ready now. I was in and out in less than 5 min. Thank you so much Sun Noodle!! Fresh shoyu ramen for dinner....so yummy!!!!!

    Sun noodles are my favorite ramen noodles! It's a perfect texture of chewy and firm. I always buy the wiki wiki frozen noodles so they last for a while. Today sun noodles were giving out 1,000 packages of a 10 pack of noodles! They decided to let the public know they are open everyday for business and there is no shortage of food / noodles during this coronavirus pandemic. There was a crazy line to get it, but I managed to get mine within 10 minutes! Thank you to all the workers and sun noodle company for providing tasty noodles to us! I feel grateful that I was able to pick up a package because I heard the event got shut down early due to traffic! Anyway you can still buy sun noodles at any grocery store or come back to the factory here.

    Tonkotsu Ramen - VN
    Vince N.

    While browsing through Island Grocery Depot's Kahului store, I came across a pack of Sun Noodle's Tonkotsu Ramen. Already loving their Shoyu version, I was hesitant about trying it because I'm not a huge tonkotsu fan, mainly due to it's color and creamy flavor. Luckily, this bet paid off! TONKOTSU RAMEN: The 2-serving pack comes with separated fresh noodles and 2 packets of base. When I make ramen using fresh noodles, I always use 2 pots, one to boil the noodles and the other to boil the dashi, then throw the noodles in to have a searing hot bowl of ramen, the only way to eat it. The directions state to dilute the base in 10-12 ounces of water, 12 was perfect. The flavor was really good - creamy, porky, and is a little thicker than traditional broth. I wish I could've decorated it with toppings but this was just a quick lunch in between my day-off list of chores. OKINAWA SOBA: These fully-cooked, thick, white noodles also comes in a 2-pack tray. Even though the noodles are pre-cooked, most folks will want to boil them a little longer as they are super al dente. The dashi flavor is a mix of bonito-beef-shoyu. It's a different, unique flavor that I could probably get used to. YAKISOBA (PLAIN): The 6 ounce package of full-cooked yellow noodles doesn't come with any dashi, so it's up to you to find your own seasoning. Luckily for me, my mom has tons of dashi packs from the Saimin noodle bags, so that goes perfect with these noodles as a stir fry. Toss in some sliced Spam, bean sprouts, shoyu, and oyster sauce for added flavor. You'll definitely need at least 2 packs to feed one person. YAKISOBA WITH SAUCE: This 11.5 oz. package is the better of the two, mainly because it comes with powdered seasoning. I pan fried some Spam, fried the noodles for a bit, added 1/4 cup water, then added both packets of seasoning, which wasn't overly salty at all. Delish! SAIMIN: They offer 2 styles, one with a thicker noodle in the white bag, the other thinner in the clear & orange bag. Both are 2 servings in 1, and come with dashi packs. I love these both ways, either as traditional saimin or stir fried. SHOYU RAMEN: Our local Costco sells these as a 4-pack, so I get 8 servings of piping hot, salty shoyu ramen on demand! They freeze well and I don't even have to thaw the noodles to cook. The packets of shoyu-oil thaw out in no time, and the end result is ramen shop quality & taste. Just add your own toppings. MISO RAMEN: Having had horrible-tasting miso ramen in many-a-restaurant, I was hesitant to try this. I'm happy to report that their version rocks! The broth was full of flavor and depth, and when combined with their eggy-flavored noodles, sent this baby into orbit! Highly recommended even for the miso hater! FACT: Ramen Lab in NYC is run by Sun Noodle, and features guest chefs that cook in front of you while seated at a traditional ramen bar. Can't wait to try them! OVERALL: Another winning product from this now nationwide company that started out in the 808. Can't get good ramen at a restaurant, like on Maui? Head to your grocer's refrigerator and grab a package of this diamond in the rough good stuff and settle that craving!

    I feel I need to update this review as it has been 7 years! My family and I still come to this…read moreramen shop and we come here once a month! My daughter and I like to order the Shiro Wagaya Ramen and my husband loves the Garlic Wagaya (Kuro) ramen. We also like to order the corn tempura as an appetizer. The restaurant itself is not so big but fits quite a good amount of people. The workers are very friendly and accommodating. You can also order your food through a QR code and pay online when you're done. There are also restrooms onsite. Parking is still small and can fill up when it's busy (you also aren't allowed to park in the Church parking lot) If you haven't eaten here before, I would suggest looking on their website at the waitlist to see how many people are on there prior to going there as they can get really busy. You can also put your name on the waitlist online so you don't have to do it on site. They have a really good text messaging system letting you know when your table is almost ready.

    Great for authentic ramen and tsukamen with a small, the intimate ramen shop appeal. I've seen…read moreWagaya on TikTok a lot recently and was happy that I put this on my list of places to visit while on the island. The appetizers were pretty good. I enjoyed the sweet and savory flavor of the agedashi tofu but was a little underwhelmed with the ahi belly. I was excepting a slightly fattier cut of fish and wasn't anticipating onion on the skewer and felt it didn't pair well with the fish (personally). I'll definitely be back!

The most impressive part of the night was the reaction from my two daughters. They are typically very picky eaters, but they completely devoured the Tokyo Chicken ramen. My wife and I were just as impressed with our Spicy Tonkatsu and regular Tonkatsu bowls. The broth was remarkably rich and packed with complex flavors, while the chashu was a savory burst in every single bite. I live right near Little Tokyo in Los Angeles and have very high standards for what makes a good bowl of ramen, so I was honestly blown away by the quality here. The kids were so into the food that we even decided to grab an order of chicken karaage to go. The service was exceptionally attentive and the staff went out of their way to ensure our family had everything we needed. The ambiance was also fantastic and added to the overall experience. Regarding parking, it can be tough in Waikiki, but we found a convenient public garage right next to the hotel where the restaurant is located. This spot is a must-visit for anyone looking for top-tier ramen in Honolulu.

You'll add yourself to the list. Varying from 20 minutes up to 45 minutes for a party of 4 or more. If you are patient, your tastebuds will certainly be rewarded. Consistency is key and Momosan puts this to practice day in day out. Attentive service, delicious food, great quality and a comfortable cozy dining experience. Outdoor seating allows you to enjoy the beauty of Waikiki beach. 8 years ago I brought my wife to our first taste of Momosan on a date, we were blown away by the flavors, freshness and quality of the ramen, the sashimi and the incomparable Sticky Ribs. Each and every visit has never failed to impress us still. To this day my kids now 12 am 14 years old, have added Momosan to their list of favorite restaurants.
