“The ramen is good. Best in town. Not many tables and the wait can be a while however. Parking is very limited and you cannot call in advance to reserve a spot. They gave me a wildly inaccurate wait time so I ended up going but ended up having to wait over an hour, not 15 minutes like what was said on the phone. All the food is cooked right in front of you too. I wouldn’t recommend anything outside of the ramen though.Vegetarian options: Limited“

“Great service! Nice atmosphere! Amazing food! Both Tacos and Ramen! The Boba tea is one of the best I've had in a while! I'd recommend trying Black Tea Boba with almond milk! Will definitely visit again next time we're in Philly!“

“Amazing!!!!! The pho and ramen were perfect, this is my favorite spot in philly for a noodle soup. The owner was so sweet too and she gave us excellent service. The place is very small and cozy but so cute! Highly recommend, a hidden gem! They also deliver on all the big food delivery service apps and it's always fresh and delicious!“

“I recently ate here on Saturday. This restaurant was my second option because I was running too late to my first. When I tell yall I'm so happy it turned out this way!! I took my nephew who loves ramen.Food: I eat at a lot of asian restaurants (Japanese, Chinese, Korean). THIS EASILY IS ONE OF THE BEST RESTAURANTS IN THE CITY. Asian food or not. Very fresh, very clean. And surprisingly extremely affordable. We ordered 1 hibachi meal, 2 ramen (one with (2) extra toppings), 6 soft drinks, 3 appetizers PLUS 20% tip all came to $100!!! My nephew completely ate every bite of his ramen plus broth, which was why we came to this restaurant. There were NO leftovers as it was absolutely delicious and I WILL return.Service: Only one woman who I didnt catch name but the receipt said "BOSS" and even though I was skeptical at first she is very prompt and was pleasant to be around. I was very happy to leave a large tip and I highly encourage it for others to do so as well. She is obviously very hard-working.Atmosphere: Its small but you can tell a lot of the decorations were made by (i believe) the daughters of the owners. It was very homely, cozy, and very cute decorations.Overall 5/5 I highly recommend every single thing.“

“A lot of ramen places are compared to Terakawa as the standard for quality ramen and Tomo does not disappoint. Their Mayu Tonkatsu is very flavorful and complex in flavor, the noodles are perfectly bouncy, and asking for the spicy sauce kicks it up a notch. Easily my new favorite ramen in Philly 10/10!“

“Not the greatest place to sit down and have dinner at, it’s a bit loud and small; better suited for quick to-gos or a lunch spot to grab food quickly. But the food is excellent and affordable, and there is seating if it’s not too busy!!!“

“THIS PLACE IS JUST AMAZING. Dropped by and have to say the service and food was extraordinary. We tried the shrimp tempura Ramen and Truffle Mushroom Ramen both were exquisite. Being from out of state, truly enjoyed the experience here.. A must visit if you ever come to Manayunk.“

“My boyfriend loves Japanese cuisine and amine. It was the perfect place to go and celebrate his birthday with friends! Good pricing , delicious food and amazing wall art. The large screen tv displaying anime was a bonus ! Was definitely worth the 45 minute drive from Delaware County, will be returning!“

“Location a bit sketchy and there is not many seats inside but the sushi is good quality for its price point.The salmon roll is $10 at time of writing, slightly more expensive than nearby alternatives but seems to be expertly prepared.The braised pork belly buns are delicious and come with thick slabs of pork meat.The fried rice rolls appetizers are also quick good and does their job to stimulate the appetite.The cha shu ramen itself is slightly spicy and includes a sliced slab of corn which is an interesting choice, at first glance, it seems a bit like instant ramen but upon tasing the noodles are certainly higher quality than that of instant ramen. The eggs are hard boiled and reminiscent of soy sauced braised salty tea eggs, the broth is flavorful but nothing too special and the same can be said for the cha shu pork pieces. Overall 4/5. The ramen passable but the sushi is the main highlight of this place.“

“Took my daughter here for a lunch date. Overall the food was good. We both agreed that the gyoza was the best part of the meal. I had teriyaki salmon and she had beef ramen which were both good. The service was great and we didn’t have to wait long for our food.“

“Always a great go-to lunch or dinner spot. I love the salmon bento box, so many of my favorite things! I have probably ordered it 20 times and it’s seriously never let me down! Yummy!!!Dietary restrictions: They are able to accommodate my dislike for mushrooms that come in the vegetable side!“

“Okay. I stopped by this place on a Sunday evening while on a business trip. My general rule of thumb is to not judge a restaurant based on Sunday or Mondays. That being said, this restaurant is the exception to the rule. I had the pork belly buns and the aka Ramen. The flavors in both of these were amazing. You should definitely give this place a shot. The broth in the Aka Ramen is simmered for 36 hours! Also, prices were very reasonable. The restaurant itself is on the smaller size but nicely appointed. The server was efficient and attentive. Can't say enough nice things about this place.“

“Loved this place been here a couple of times and the food and service is the best you could get. Refills water periodically, takes trash off table for you, packs your food to go if you don’t finish it. The boba is good here the balls are really soft and chewy. Must get the karaage chicken def a good portion size. The decorations here is so cute too love the vibe this place gives.“

“Definitely my favorite place to eat one of my favorite foods - poke bowls! I've been a regular customer for almost 2 years now and I have never been disappointed. Everytime I get a chance I bring a friend to try their foods. Their takoyaki and steamed dumplings are also delicious! Wonderful staff, they give generous portions and are so sweet! Sometimes they even throw me free sodas“

“Very happy with our dinner visit! Food was very yummy, especially the chicken karagee ?!! The ambiance was very nice too — we were particularly please that the music wasn’t super loud (to the point where we need to scream to talk to each other)! Service was great as well! Will definitely come back ?!“

“1. The food was delicious, especially the marinated egg.2. Have the option to customize the salty levels. I personally would recommend less (salty), as regular (salty) is too much for me.3. The portion sizes are a bit small and pricey compared to other ramen restaurants, but a nice option for a quick and easy ramen.4. The service was nice and fast, was never rushed.5. The atmosphere of the restaurant was relaxed and clean.“

“So happy i found this place and finally tried it. Fairly new and luckily 5 min drive from me. Chill vibes inside. Food was on point! I came towards the night my first time with my bf. wish I got my server's name but she was very attentive and encouraged me to try things in my dish i kept avoiding lol. We got gyoza which is made with chicken (big plus I avoid pork) spicy tuna roll, salmon teriyaki and the Gyu Don. Had to come again the same week. This time ordered the Fuki Spicy Miso Pork Ramen and replaced it with beef. Same server w/ a younger man, still a great time.“

“I went here with a crew of 6 to celebrate a special day, and it was a really good experience! By no means am I a sushi expert, but I am not a newcomer either and to me it was pretty great experience, especially the tempura shrimp on the mango shrimp roll.. We ordered the Party Platter D which came with 64 pieces total comprised of Alaska roll, tuna avocado roll, california roll, spicy tuna roll, sweet potato roll, tiger roll, mango shrimp roll, and creamy crab roll. The mango in the mango shrimp roll was also a welcomed change of flavors. Lots of options. We ended up getting one of the family meals that really satisfied our group's stomachs and wallets. Generally it is a little expensive, but it's a local establishment that also doesn't have a liquor license to bring in easy revenue. On that note, this is a BYOB restaurant, which is pretty neat, allowing you to save even more on your overall price if you plan on drinking. I wonder if they would be willing to warm your sake for you? My only food recommendation (which I communicated to the open and friendly guy at the counter, is that the spicy tuna wasn't very spicy. Maybe now it will be spicier if they've had similar complaints since the time I went--probably 5 months ago at this point. Otherwise, my only other complaint is just that it's a small place--about 8 spots at the stylish wood sushi bar, and two picnic style tables that can seat 5 if you pull up a chair, so it might be a little tough to find a spot if you're going out with a crew.“

“Nice little ramen shop. Interestingly I was thinking of getting sushi, searched on Google and this place popped up. No sushi to be found on the menu when I arrived though.Arrived on a quiet Sunday night, and ordered the signature Ramen, the chashu Don, and chicken karrage.The chicken karrage was fresh and delicious, but it was $10 so I certainly wonder if it was worth the price.The ramen, as warned by some other reviewers, was quite bland, despite having two chilli peppers on the menu, it was not spicy at all, though I’m not complaining about that given my low spice tolerance. The broth was simply lacking in depth and I had to add salt to enhance it, though it ended up being too salty afterwards. It also doesn’t help that I had Ichiran in Manhattan the day before so it was clearly a deviation in quality. Though Ichiran was double the price of this.The pork and eggs in the ramen were wonderful however, tender, sweet, and full of flavor. This applies for the chashu don as well, because of the tenderness and flavor of the meat, it is top notch and I certainly would return/order again for the don but not the ramen.“

“You can tell it is more a grab and go type of place for the college folks but our dine-in experience was great nonetheless! Staff was so kind, attentive, and food came quickly. Sushi was amazing and amazing, I enjoyed my miso soup, and my husband and I shared some edamame.Definitely would recommend for anyone looking for some sushi in the neighborhood! Mango Tango and Holiday rolls were my favorites!“

“Their lunch special is a great value and the rolls were good without the deal too. the tuna in the tuna roll was fresh, flavorful, and plentiful.the atmosphere felt really casual so it might not be great for a nice date, but any other sushi need would be well met “

“Our second time here; first time ordering takeout. All our food was prepared nice and tasted delicious. The one thing I noticed is that the fish pieces, draped over the sushi donuts, were very thin.... much thinner than when we ate in six months prior. I probably wouldn't get any items that could be loaded with rice and lacking the protein.Parking: Finding convenient parking nearby could take a very long time. Pickings are slim.“

“HANDS DOWN BEST RAMEN IN THE CITY. The pork was melting in my mouth. The tonkatsu broth is yummy. The service is lovely. Just an amazing amazing experience. Will definitely be back again. Haven't had ramen this good since San Francisco. This place is a MUST. And a nice portion size. And the price was very very affordable for 2 people. $36 before tip. With edamame and sparkling flavor soda. Soooo good. Like pop your tongue good. Smoke a cigarette after and I don't even smoke. Just delicious“

“I'll be sad to see this place go, it's been a staple for me since I moved to Philly in 2017...I was hungry around 1am and it was one of a few places open lol. The ramen always slaps and I've cultivated some great friendships over hot, steaming bowls of broth and noodles. This is also the place that introduced me to Taiwan Mazesoba (brothless ramen, affectionately known as Maz here lol). Everyone that works here is a vibe, I truly love it here“

“I had went with some friends to Chika Ramen Bar for the first time. I had originally doubted the food given the very interesting, futuristic, Blade-Runner-esque theme, though I was pleasantly surprised. Though I had originally, believed, all of this restaurant's pull had been contributed to the ambiance, the food was extremely something to die for. The miso soup ramen with chashu tasted fresh, new, and had helped ease my original concerns. The Karage chicken tasted tender, without any dry pieces. Finally, the servers felt down-to-earth, without them forcing you to leave in a hurry. The overall ambiance, service, and food were something I would definitely consider with friends again.“

“The staff was very attentive, quick and friendly. I ordered the Tonkotsu ramen and didn't expect such a rich taste - perfectly cooked noodles, a creamy broth and perfectly assorted toppings. Haven't had such good ramen outside of Japan. Will definitely come back again!“
