    Spicy Miso Ramen with Pork Belly instead of ground pork
    Sana G.

    Tokyo Ramen is a great sit-down spot on the UConn campus. They have several different options including vegetarian/vegan ramen and rice bowls. Substitutions on menu dishes are welcome to make the perfect bowl for you. The service is always great and food comes out very quickly. The restaurant is beautifully decorated despite being in an older strip mall on campus. I also recommend adding the spicy chili pepper powder at the table to your ramen if you're into spice!

    Not a bad place to get your ramen fix. Service is quick and courteous, interior is clean, and the food is generally good. I had the tonkatsu ramen: the broth was serviceable though a little on the thin side, the other toppings were pretty standard (good boiled egg though - yolk was not too runny and not too hard), noodles were okay - but a shout-out to the char siu. Soft and succulent, nicely seared, these heavenly pork slices were outstanding! One of my daughters had the shoyu ramen and also found it a little thin flavor-wise, but thought the toppings were good. My other daughter had their chicken karaage rice bowl which she said was very good. My wife had the vegetarian ramen and enjoyed it (and also very happy that they offer such an option); she liked the mild miso broth and the nice spicy finish from the chili oil. So overall, a decent spot for ramen - just would like to see the broths be a bit more assertive.

    We stopped here after being absolutely drained from doing a full move in to dorm on a humid hot day and this ramen place just seemed to appear from the back of the Storrs plaza. Everyone was happily pleased and extremely filled with their ramen bowls, the vegetarian bowl had a hint of miso in the broth which made the tofu blend perfectly and hold moisture. The tonkotsu bowls were incredible with the pork that was tender and sweet enough while also having that signature light char. Perfect lunch or dinner spot, I know the college students keep this one busy!

    Love the owner - she memorizes your order, checks in just enough, is a HUMAN BEING. Love the ambiance. Love the food. Pork samiches are the best. Solid gyoza and (albeit greasy-ish) ramen. Dope pork ribs. Never have ramune :( great veggie / vegan place. Cozy seating, and have to watch for loud people behind you who DONT BELIEVE IN CLIMATE CHANGE AND SHOW ME THE PROOF AND... no one cares ;) Food wins. Owner seals the deal. You're in UConn, so YMMV. Its an effort to not be here on a weekly basis

    Vegetarian Ramen

    We were looking for a ramen place on a cold night, and this fit the bill! Both bowls of ramen were warm and delicious. I had the vegetarian, which had fried tofu in it...the only downside (to me; others may not mind fried). I would have preferred non-fried or none at all and just more veggies. The service was quick and friendly. If you're near UCONN and in the mood for ramen, give it a try!

    Spicy Miso Ramen
    Ritsu K.

    Very good fresh made noodles with tasty soup. The spicy miso ramen had ground beef that tasted like mabo tofu spices - unusual for a ramen but pleasantly combined with the sweet corn and peas. The vegetarian steamed dumplings had fresh dumpling skins and crunchy filling. Highly recommend.

    I'm primarily happy with this place because I can get what they claim to be bone broth. I think they even said they use chicken feet. The ramen I got was less than stellar. Almost none of the "beef" was meat- mostly all fat and wasn't worth all the pulling apart with my fingers so gave it to someone's dog (she said he would love it ). The scallion pancake I don't think could have had any more oil in it. Could have wrung it out like a dishrag. Was yummy though. The guy taking the order was pleasant. And they did get correctly my not wanting egg and one other thing I think and making the substitutions at no charge. I had takeout and was watching birdbox so while I was eating slow I did feel it cooled off quite rapidly to very cold even though it started off quite hot. The scallion pancake was too hot to handle even. Will probably go back to acquire broth. Probably not the full ramen as it has minimal flavor and seems a bunch of carbs for not much nutrition. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    We came here last night after spying the name on the plaza sign and I'm glad we did! I lived in NYC for a bunch of years so I'm well versed in ramen and was excited to see this place, since our here it's a rarity. Cozy little seating area, sat quickly and had someone take our drink orders straightaway. There were probably 10 other people dining when we sat, so the quick service was well noted/appreciated. Drinks cake just as quickly and we ordered the scallion pancake, the torishio ramen, and the tonkotsu ramen. Scallion pancake was out in 5 mins and was delicious, if a little greasy. Ramen was out maybe 10 minutes after that. Husband said his was perfect and he ate the entire thing. Mine (chicken) was also excellent. I will note that they were both not seasoned so if you want spicy you will need to add in. (Hot sauce is on the table!) I personally prefer it that way so you can decide your level rather than just hoping for something. (Just to note, spoons and chopsticks are self serve on the table as well.) Everything was cleared quickly/cheque dealt with in a timely manner. They did let us know there is a 10% discount for cash, so I hope they keep that perk. Long story short, definitely give this place a try! We will be back.

    Food: Solid ramen with a nice presentation. The meat is not always amazingly cooked, but it is still enjoyable. Other indgredients and toppings are app good, including the noodles. The broth sometimes is not as flavorful as I would like, but this is a matter of taste. I do find it sufficiently rich. Atmosphere: A casual interior with sauces at the table for you to doctor your ramen with. relatively spartan decour, with some photos of the food on the wall. Service: The one man working the front end is very attentive, keeping your water full. The food comes out in around 10 minutes. In all the times I have been (3) there has never been more then 5 other people there, so I am not sure if any of this would change with a rush. Value: Good ramen for between $10-$15, a fine value.

    It was that good.

    I am so excited to have a ramen place close to the Northeast corner of CT! And they are GOOD! I had the Shoyu Ramen and the pork belly was fall apart tender, with delicious rings of fat throughout. The noodles were firm and just perfectly chewy. If I had any suggestions it would be to season the broth a little more aggressively, as it is very mild (which some would probably prefer) and to warm up the egg enough so that the center is not cold. Highly recommend! Service is fast and polite. A bit expensive but not surprising in the location. Worth the trip!

    Chashu Don Chashu Don

    My favorite place to eat, I get a pork belly rice bowl called Chashu Don. Best meal I've ever had, pretty big portions filled with a delicious combination of food. Averagely fast cool time when I get it to-go, Very friendly at the front counter too!

    Tonkotsu Ramen

    Definitely one of the best ramen spots I've been to. I ordered a Tonkotsu ramen and the pork belly was charred to perfection. My friend had the Shoyu ramen. His broth was good but I thought the Tonkotsu broth was better. I will be visiting more often. I love the service there.

    Great service, great ramen, overall great experience…read more Attempted to come to this place a few times before. Eash time, there was a significant wait so we tried someplace else. This time, we made a small trek during a slow time and managed to get quick seating. Inside is nice but a small location, about 20 tables and even with the off time most of them were filled. We sat and immediately were brought waters and dishes. The team is designed to be a brigade, with everyone participating in the service. This led to very quick service and easy access to a server. We got two ramens and a dumplings to share. The food took a couple minutes but we quickly had dumplings and soup and we took our pics and dug in. The dumplings were freshly made, loose but flavorful filling with a pool of sauce on the bottom for dipping. The wrapper was delightfully thin and the garnishes added little pops of texture and flavor which changed the flavor profile of the filling. Those were very good dumplings I got a truffle shoyu ramen. The noodles were freshly made, springy and a little chewy but a great sauce vessel. the toppings were plentiful, the shoyu pork wasn't the most tender but the pieces were nicely charred and sauces to be distinct in the dish. The broth started off as straight seafood broth, lots of briny umami but little depth. Once I mixed the truffle scoop in, the flavor really bloomed. Now the broth had an earthy, mellow base note which made the broth a surf and turf umami bomb. It was very tasty, and the best ramen I've had in ct. Price is not bad, $55 for two bowls, add on wontons for the missus's soup and the appetizer. For the quality, the price is really good for what you get. It's easy to understand why this place is as busy as it gets. It's a great ramen shop and worth the trek to try. Delicious ramen done well and fast.

Staff seated us quickly and were solid with service - orders were taken fast and food came out in a reasonable amount of time.

I wouldn't mind coming back if in the area again, but would probably stick to ramen just for comfort.

The restaurant has a cozy, peaceful atmosphere that immediately makes you feel comfortable. Around lunchtime there were only a couple of tables occupied, so it was quiet enough to relax and actually enjoy a conversation. The lighting was a little dim, which added to the cozy vibe. The woman helping us was incredibly friendly and provided excellent customer service from the moment we walked in. I ordered chicken soup dumplings, chicken broth ramen, Vietnamese beef pho, a passion fruit green tea with bubbles, and a coconut bubble milk tea. Everything was delicious, and honestly, I would order every single item again. The chicken soup dumplings were my favorite surprise. They were incredibly juicy. On my first bite, some of the broth squirted right out because I wasn't expecting that much flavor packed inside. Paired with the soy sauce and chili sauce, they were absolutely amazing. The chicken broth ramen was rich, comforting, and full of authentic flavor. It was so good that I ordered another bowl to take home for later. The Vietnamese beef pho was equally satisfying, with a flavorful broth that tasted like it had been simmering for hours. Both bubble teas were well-balanced and not overly sweet. The passion fruit green tea was especially refreshing and paired perfectly with the meal. The portions were generous, the flavors tasted authentic, and the overall experience reminded me why supporting local restaurants is so much better than grabbing fast food. You can taste the difference in the quality and care that goes into the food. I already know I'll be back. Next time, I have my eye on the steamed buns. If you're looking for a cozy lunch spot, a comforting bowl of ramen, or simply a quiet place to enjoy a great meal, Fujiya Ramen is definitely worth a visit.
