Visited here with my bf after a few sightings on TikTok. I'll say overall our experience was great! Decently wide variety of options, including with toppings, and several sides and drinks if you're interested too. The staff member guided us in detail through the cooking process and all the toppings seemed fresh and tasted good in our soups. I'll say that the downside is what you expect: you're paying $$ for essentially instant noodles with toppings you could have yourself at home for 1/3 of the price. It's for the experience and convenience more than anything. I found most noodle packs were $6 and toppings ranged from $1-$4 apiece. My own soup cost about $10 + add a $3 soda. Very instagrammable/tiktok worthy though and we didn't regret our experience, but may not be frequent visitors. read more

The Ramyun Library - Ramen Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

What a great concept! I first saw one of these while in Las Vegas, so when I found out there was one in the Dallas area I knew I had to try it. Being able to pick your own ramen and watch it cook right in front of you feels like something straight out of Japan. It's a fun and interactive experience that makes the meal even more enjoyable. Most of the ramen options lean toward the spicy side, so I do wish there were a few more non-spicy choices available. That said, everything we tried was quite tasty. The teriyaki chicken was just as good and a great option if you're looking for something outside of ramen. Overall, it's a unique dining experience and definitely a place we'll be coming back to. read more

I've seen this place on Instagram and it looked very cool so I had to come check it out. We stopped by for lunch here. They have so many different types of ramen with many different toppings to add. There is a Photo Booth inside too! You order at a kiosk and pick out your toppings. Toppings can be pretty pricey. You receive your order on a tray and then you go to the hot water machines to make the ramen. I definitely enjoyed my lunch! This was a fun and cool experience to check out. Of course you can buy any of this ramen from the grocery store and make it at home, but it is nice to experience at the Ramyun Library. I like the setup here! read more

The Ramyun Library - All the way from NY. We enjoy the noodles and the experience. - Ramen Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

This is a cool place to check out different types of ramen. There is a kiosk where you can go through the different types and order which ramen with various toppings along with any sides. Once you make your order, they bring out your items and you use the little water machines to make your ramen. Once it's heated and made you can then add your toppings. Very cool and fun experience with a great library of ramen for decor. read more

I'm sorry but it's far to pricy for what you get. It is a cute idea and maybe would work better in certain areas. First I do think the location will have some downsides, likely you will have to drive here to eat store bought ramen. That being said the lack of variety is other main issue. Most of this ramen is available down the street at H-mart or even your local Kroger. There are some that I haven't seen/harder to get, but majority are common in stores. Since it's all prepackage I can't really rate this restaurant on food? Yes the noodles were good but also it's the same noodles you can make at home. The main reason my review is so low is the price. One small slice of spam is $2 and a small shot of corn is $1. The price for the bag of ramen was like $6 but I guess what felt off was how high the price of sides were. And it's not like the sides are cooked before, they are (I assume) canned corn and canned spam. I bet this place would do better in a downtown setting for a quick lunch. read more

What a cool concept! Inspiration from those 24 hour ramyum stations in Seoul, they did an awesome job with the set up. With dozens of ramyums to choose from, you can add countless toppings to them It is on the pricer end if you look at the prices per topping, so something to keep in mind.

The service was friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. And let's talk about the ambiance. the wall of ramyun packets was such a unique and fun touch, creating a cozy yet vibrant vibe. While some people say the prices are high, I personally think it's completely fair for the quality and portion sizes you get. You're not just paying for a meal; you're paying for a great dining experience that's totally worth it. Definitely a must-visit spot for any ramen lovers.

The concept of this restaurant is cute and despite the controversial prices, I would definitely come back here! The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars would be the wait-time. I waited an hour to get my ramen, which was definitely a little absurd, but even then the staff was very friendly and helpful. They recommended the perfect amount of "spicy sauce" and gave my party a lot of attention to help us make our ramen as tasty as possible. They truly want you to have a good experience which is really what the place is all about - making your own comfort dish with friends. I had a blast and plan to return, albeit during a time that isn't peak lunch hours. read more

My teenager has been nagging me to check this new concept out and she was not disappointed! The concept is neat but I feel a bit overpriced and underwhelming for me but I guess it's all about the look and feel these days.

My daughter was definitely happy with her selection so that makes this mama happy as well! read more

Great concept here in the US, after came back from Seoul couple month prior. My kid and I decided to do road trip and drove by this little town so we want to check it out to see how it compares to S Korea. Great spacious, clean and perfect place for selfie for sure. Parking might be an issue in the weekend but there's street parking too. We're there when they're open so the staff or owner, she was very nice and friendly. She pointed out what are goods and what are just aok. We ordered via kiosk, you could order through her too. We got several different noodles and added on plus appetizers. It's a self serve but you can ask for help but it sort of self explanatory. Overall it's a fun experience and similar in S Korea, except you have more choose of add on and drinks there. The prices can be on the high end but it's worth it, especially when you have kids and they are actually doing it it themselves instead of clueing to the iPhone/ipad. read more

The experience and ambiance was fun and exciting. The service was great and the area was clean. The downsides were that there was not a huge selection of ramyun and the toppings were pricey considering the noodle itself was already pricey. Not everything displayed was being sold (ex. Sesame flavor). If some of ramyun are $8, then they should include a couple toppings, tbh. read more

This place is fun if you want to try different prepackaged ramens without buying a whole package. The only thing that I could say I didn't really enjoy is that after you order your ramen on the little kiosk you then have to make it yourself at a station. If there are multiple people there which there was when I was there you would have to wait until they were done cooking their own. Maybe giving people the option to have the workers there prepare it for you would make sense because I had to wait like 15 to even be able to prepare my instant ramen. read more

Fun for all Ramen lovers! We were promptly greeted by a staff member who directed us to an ordering kiosk & offered to help if we needed guidance in ordering. The dining area was immaculate & plenty of communal seating. Pretty quickly we were called up to the front & the staff member instructed us on how to prepare our bowls. It was such fun to see our noodles bubbling in the bowls in a matter of seconds. Our bowls were delicious with just the right amount of broth. I added the pork dumplings to mind - they were delicious. My guest added the Kimchi to her order & really enjoyed it. Fair value for the experience ($25 for 2 bowls & 2 drinks). read more

I've been here twice now so I feel I can make a review now lol. Both times I had a great experience. Now, I already knew kind of what to expect by some videos I seen but I still like to experience things for myself. Clearly, it's the cheaper ramen packs you can buy at the Asian markets. So if you're wanting to just eat the ramen go to the Asian market and make it at home. If you're like me, and you like a fun food experience, then definitely come try this place out. Best time I've went without a wait was on a Tuesday right after work. I made the mistake of first time going on a Saturday and it was packed. Now, they do not have a lot of seating and you will be sitting by strangers more than likely. If that is not your thing, again, don't dine here. You put your order in on the big screens by the door. You can pick from various soups with or without broth. You pick your toppings, which mostly range from $1.99-$5.99. Now the main thing I don't like is that you can only pick 4 toppings per bowl. They also have apps, drinks, and desserts you can pick from as well. Once you place the order, try to find you a seat. Wait for your name to be called, and then you will go up and make your ramen. The workers instruct you on what to do, so this part is easy but fun if you like to have interactive food experiences. I enjoyed this part. Plus I love instant ramen. I was ready. Both ramens I've tried were delicious. I got seafood ramen each time but tried two different ones. I added shrimp, green onions, extra veg flakes and an egg to my ramen. I plan to try new toppings next time. I personally think the ramen is delicious and I like the additions you can add. I wish they would allow up to 6 toppings though but I can understand the need for a max limit. The place is cute with the ramen all over the wall. I think it would kind of make this place cooler if you could pick your actual ramen off the wall first, take it to the register to order and then make your ramen. But the wall ramen is for decor only! Both times I had pretty fast service. While me and my friends were eating, the line was getting pretty long and ppl were essentially just waiting for ppl to finish their food before they could even be seated to make theirs. They need more seating plain and simple, especially since this isn't really a place you can take the food to go. I hope they can make some tweaks to allow for more seating and possibly adding more toppings. Still a pretty good place and the ice cream and apps I've tried were also really good, so I will be back for more instant ramen a lot. read more

I'm so conflicted while writing this review because in concept, it's so cute and the experience itself is quite fun...up until the point you realize you've waited an hour to pay $15 to make a ~$1 ramen and it took you approximately 10 minutes to eat. It's a really gimmicky concept that I unfortunately fell for, but I think it would've worked if they didn't upcharge their ingredients/ramen so much. You don't feel as bad about yourself...although you definitely will still feel bad. Every ramen is around $4-6 (I believe) for the package itself, which I think is alright. The issue I have is the fact that they charge so much for their extra ingredients especially when some of them should be free. For example, a better business model might be to charge everyone $4-6 for the ramen + two or three free sides. You can't eat ramen just plain. Everyone knows that. I personally added cheese, green onion, dumplings, and kimchi...which got me to a grand total of ~$15. That's about the same price as a bowl of Japanese ramen or udon, LOL. That's also more than the price of a tofu soup in every Carrollton restaurant. The workers are super nice and helpful, but the actual concept of having only 4-5 people cook their ramen at a time and everyone sits down in chairs to watch them and wait for their own orders... it doesn't work. Either add more cooking machines + seating AND/OR decrease their prices. I don't know. I personally would never come back but I can see the appeal of being curious and wanting to come try it out...but like another Yelper said, save your curiosity and go buy an actual bowl of ramen/udon/noodle soup. You won't have to wait as long and chances are, you'll be paying less too. read more

For what it is (instant ramen) it's definitely worth checking out. You order at a kiosk and the wait time is usually 30mins to an hour. The kiosk will tell you the wait time prior to ordering. There's a wait b/c they only have 6 hot plates to boil the ramen. We waited about 35 for ours and it takes around 5-6mins to make. The staff is super friendly and helps you if needed. There's lots of ramen options I just wish they had more toppings to choose from. read more

Very cute restaurant, it's has photo ops and is very clean. It's def a one and done experience restaurant though. The ramen I chose was fine, every bit the expected instant noodle. You are given the package to open and prepare yourself. You add your own hot water, mix the ingredients and take your tray to the table. My kids love instant noodles but most options had a moderate to high spice level, so they did not particularly like theirs. Add ons add up quick. Fresh green onion was $1. . . Try it out once, but we more than likely won't be back. read more

See, I really want to like this place but the amount you pay for is not worth it. The decro is very tacky and cheap looking even with the wall of ramen . The fish cake is small and only gives you 2 for $1.99. The shrimp is $1.99 but comes in a size that's so tiny you might as well go get yourself a dollar menu item. The service was good and helpful, that's why I give it 1 extra stars. I ended up with what's on the ticket, but I have to say I don't think I will ever come back here and neither should you because for $45.90 you could get yourself a decent meal. ( also feel satisfied and full) read more

It's hard to mess up ramen that you cook yourself, ya know? There's several times of ramen to choose from including vegetarian. There's a few appetizers and drinks that you can order as well. You can choose to put some toppings on top like shredded cheese, green onion, dumplings, a boiled egg. You're essentially cooking your ramen of choice on a hot plate with all your toppings so the service was quick. The restaurant itself is just the several types of ramen displayed on the walls. It's a somewhat novel idea but it was incredibly expensive. For my ramen with all the toppings and a lemonade it was $18. I can't personally in good conscience bring myself to ever go back in this economy but for a little get-together with friends, it's a fun idea but tbh you can get really good ramen for the same price at a more traditional spot. read more

Overpriced gimmick. They have a wall of noodles but only like a handful available to order. It's basically exactly about making cup noodles in a microwave.

Absolutely LOVED this awesome Korean Ramyun concept that's down the street from H-Mart! Super fun experience, good food and cool atmosphere. So glad that we found this hidden gem! It's located on the corner of a little strip mall and can be easy to miss, so make sure to keep your eyes peeled. The location itself is bright and open. They have some fun decor like the ramyun walls with all the different packets lined up, super fun for photo ops, as well as another wall covered in noodles. There are a few big long tables and communal seating. Service was quick and the gentleman that helped us was super patient and friendly! As you enter, you're met with a pair of kiosks, where you place your order. They have a wide variety of noodles, both with and without broth. Most are spicy, though there are a few mild options, as well as Chapagetti. Next you pick your add-ons, up to 4 per bowl. You also have a selection of other fun sides like regular or spicy tuna kimbap, deep fried fish cake in several flavors, Man Doo and Hodduk (brown sugar or cinnamon flavored). They also have some fresh lemonades as well as canned sodas and milk drinks. For my ramyun, I picked Jin Jjampong, a spicy seafood broth flavored noodle. I added woodear mushroom, extra flakes-seafood flavor, shrimp and green onion. My daughter and fiancé both got Buldak noodles with sausage, green onion and hard boiled eggs. We also ordered an original Fish Cake, an order of Man Doo and a brown sugar Hodduk. For drinks, we got a banana milk, a strawberry milk and a Milkis. There is a service counter with a row of self-serve, automated ramen machines that they will call you up to when it's your turn. Now comes the fun part! (Besides eating them of course) You'll be given a tray with the ramyun packet you picked, a separate cardboard bowl, as well as all your add-ins. The gentleman then instructs you to open your packets, add the noodles and appropriate seasonings into the bowl with your extras, then place the bowl in the circle on the machine. He presses a button and the perfect amount of hot water is dispensed into the bowl. The next button he pushes activates induction cooking(there is a circle of metal paper in the bottom of the cardboard bowl which is what makes the induction cooktop work). The ramyun then begins to boil and cook, with a timer countdown and automatic shut-off. It's truly incredible seeing the broth boil away in a cardboard bowl!! If you got a stir-fried noodle, staff will help you drain your noodles before returning them to the bowl for you to add your seasonings. After your ramyun is done cooking, you're free to find a seat and enjoy your fully customized noodles! The sides were all delicious! My daughter especially liked the fish cake more than she thought she would (I already knew I'd love it!). Man Doo wasn't mind blowing, but it wasn't terrible either. Hodduk was very tasty, perfect amount of chewy sweetness, an excellent way to end the meal. Was this the most refined, gourmet, high-end ramyun? No. Was it wonderfully delicious, satisfying and a unique, fun experience? Absolutely! We thoroughly enjoyed everything about The Ramyun Library and will definitely be back every time we are in the area to go to H-Mart! The hardest part about this place is deciding which noodle to try, which is not a bad problem to have! read more
