Mimi TakanoAugust 23, 2014Ramen is delicious, appetizers are delicious too...oh and the waiters are pretty cute ;)
Yera HaAugust 16, 2014The Lancaster Okonomiyaki, the scrapple waffle, is a weird mixture of flavors and textures that ends up being really enjoyable
Tim JulienMarch 8, 2015triple pork triple garlic is really good (p.s. it doesn't have much broth, just so you know)
Roxanne TehranianJanuary 26, 2015The spicy red chili ramen should be renamed the honey boo boo ramen - instead of pasta with ketchup it's ramen with franks red hot.. & some hot water - gross
GavinJune 20, 2015Ramen and broth quality has changed within the year that I have discovered Ivan ramen and it now feels overpriced for mediocre, hyped up ramen. I would still recommend the shoyu ramen.
Christina RosadoMay 10, 2014The ramen is yum! Broth is super flavorful and the noodles were perfection 👌
Ryan AmbsApril 29, 2015Shio was safe but nothing special. Spicy looked like a bit much and I regret not getting the triple. Beef tongue, prawns, and mushrooms all average. Meatballs were my favorite app fwiw
Mahesh Paolini-SubramanyaAugust 23, 2014The appetizers are better than the ramen (which is good too)
Melody HanDecember 31, 2015Inventive ramen but pricey with the fixings - the mushroom noodles are where it's at
bruna lacerdaMay 8, 2017Appetizers are better than the ramen, also, host made you wait almost 40 min for a table and seat you at the bar saying that the bar is also table service, lack of communication wins! :(
Nicole AptekarAugust 21, 2014The veggie ramen is delicious! Comes with a roasted tomato, which is pretty surprising.
Roniel TesslerNovember 15, 2018This place is the real deal. Chicken ramen has the umami you're craving.- Yera HaAugust 16, 2014If you're looking for something with a kick, the spicy red chili ramen is what you want.
Mullica ZudsiriSeptember 3, 2016Super nice staff. Their appetizers are 2pc but they added a 3rd because we had three people
Hillary YuanFebruary 9, 2016tried this place twice, underwhelming both times. Shoyu and spicy chili ramen are both okay. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Spicy Red Chili Ramen and a few Sapporos is the best hangover cure ever.- Triple Pork Triple Garlic and the "sushi" plus the Coney Island Tofu.
AmateurConciergeJuly 22, 2014The manzeman is much thinner than at Yuji and therefore a little less "interesting to me"
Jonathan KramerSeptember 8, 2014The noodles are fantastic and the vegetarian option is an excellent surprise.
Kristina RudicOctober 1, 2016Definitely get the spicy ramen. Not overpowered by spice but it's full of flavor.
Ru LuFebruary 22, 2015The artwork see really stood out compared to other ramen places. Original dishes were good.
Norma RAugust 6, 2014Shio ramen has a lighter broth for those who don't want to feel super bloated after their meal
Vivek BhagwatAugust 18, 2014The triple pork triple garlic mazemen is not at all traditional, but amazing
Triple garlic triple pork fully loaded is incredible. Ippudo can't touch it.
Sean PatrickJune 20, 2014Small portions. Triple pork, triple garlic mazemen is good, but price/portion ratio is way off. Deviled thousand year eggs are just deviled eggs with bonito flakes - good, but not $3.50 a pop good.
Ryan Zhang 🤪March 21, 2017If you're coming here from Chef's table and expect to be a great Japanese ramen, don't.
