The menu is straightforward and delicious, no bad choices here. It has a hipster vibe; but don't let that stop you from experiencing the best Ramen restaurant in Central Arkansas. The staff is courteous and efficient. Make this a regular on your dining roster.
We moved from Denver and have been looking for a great Ramen spot since moving to Little Rock. Aji Ramen Bar did NOT disappoint! We got takeout since I was under the weather but it traveled well. The staff was very pleasant and there's large enough portions you can eat off it more than once. The Tonkatsu broth is A++ and we will definitely be adding this place to our new list of local favorites. It seems many already have as there were lots of people inside and picking up takeout while we were there. Thank you for providing a fantastic, delicious meal for myself and my family!Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options are very easy to determine and, considering this is a specialty place, has a fairly decent selection.Parking: This is a large strip mall so there is plenty of parking to be had, but you may need to walk a bit.

We went with a larger group (8) and they were very accommodating! We had 4 kids with us and all were amazed with the food. My 4 year old, in particular, is very hard to impress. She’s very picky. But she was very happy with her bowl! The broth was amazing! It was light, creamy, and the flavor was perfect! Noodles were perfect and the bean sprouts were crunchy and lovely! It was the perfect dinner after spending time at the anime festival!

The broth for the ramen was amazing. The meat was impressive and the service was also wonderful. Very impressive and will be going back.
I ordered their chicken tonkatsu, and it did not disappoint! The broth was delicious and the chopped chicken was very savory and not at all fatty. My fiancé tried their curry ramen, and the consensus was that they most definitely have good curry! Not sure it translated well to being used as a ramen broth though. The staff was also very attentive and friendly. If I lived in the area I would go again.

Great food - reminds me of when I lived in Japan. I recommend the Miso ramen with pork belly - order it spicy!
Best ramen shop I've ever been to, I never go anywhere else in Arkansas. I've prolly been in that place hundreds of times. The service is great and everyone is friendly, the food is heavenly and addicting, and the atmosphere is local and unique. I'd give 10 stars outta 5 if I could.
