Ramen Restaurants near Mesa, AZ

“My kids and I absolutely enjoyed everything about this restaurant. The two women working here at around 3pm where so nice, attentive, and helpful. The food, spicy miso ramen and sizzling shrimp udon were the best we've had in a long time. A bonus, was that we don't eat pork and here they offer a broth that is miso based. We loved it. The presentation was beautiful and it was delicious and it was a good portion. The restaurant was also very clean and no loud music . We had bought some boba beforehand not knowing we were going to eat here. They were the only restaurant we saw that allowed outside drinks. We don't usually do this, but it just happened like that. They also have the best take-away bags. My kids raved about this place afterwards. We will all come back and definitely recommend to anyone.“

“Reminds me of food I used to get on base at MCAS Iwakuni Japan, not far from Nagasaki.“

“Restaurant Review

I recently visited Daruma, and I must say, it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The cleanliness of the place immediately stood out—it was spotless! From the dining area to the restrooms, everything was meticulously maintained, which made the entire atmosphere feel welcoming and comfortable.

The food was equally impressive. Each dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You could tell the ingredients were high-quality and prepared with care. Whether you’re looking for a hearty meal or something light, the menu offers plenty of options to satisfy any craving.

Overall, Daruma, it’s owners and staff exceeded my expectations. The combination of a clean environment and delicious food makes it a place I’ll happily recommend to anyone. Can’t wait to come back!“

“I moved here from California three years ago and I’ve been trying to find a restaurant that serves Japanese curry. That is as good as cocoa Ichibanya in Irvine and this place is not only as good, it is better. The curry has amazing flavor and the chicken Katsuwas perfectly crispy and the chicken was nice and moist. It was absolutely perfect.“

“Best. Ramen. Ever. Be prepared to wait in line during peak hours, but it’s well worth the wait!“

“We love this little noodle shop! It's difficult to find traditional ramen in the desert, well really anywhere outside of Japan! Yatai isn't fancy. It isn't bougie. It's just right! Grateful for their amazing service and amazing ramen. Highly recommend.“

“Very good, it was a wait but worth it for sure👍🏼“

“Really Good food, really great staff. We’ve been in twice to celebrate birthdays (both my sons eat here at least 2-4 times a month) and even though they don’t take reservations on Saturday nights, they are always willing and helpful to accommodate our 9-12 person party. Every staff member that I have encountered has been 5 star.“

“I loved their beef bowls but they've since removed them from the menu :( It was a nice healthier option to the katsu and pork loin

I hope in the future they have the opportunity to bring back the same recipe. All the food here is delicious regardless.“

“The food has great flavor and service is excellent!“

“Kazu Ramen in Gilbert, AZ was absolutely phenomenal. Vina was our waitress, and she was so pleasant and helpful with the menu. We had the opportunity to meet with the owner, Hendra, and he’s got something special going with this restaurant. Stop by, say hi, and eat away! I ate the kazu ramen, and Janelle ate the katsu-men. Delicious stuff! We’ll be back.“

“Good food friendly staff! Worth the drive from East Mesa.“

“FINALLY a place that makes a mean seasoned egg. The seasoning makes it all the way through to the perfectly soft boiled and rich yolk. So many ramen joints around here just throw a regular hard boiled egg in there and call it a day.I had the tonkotsu ramen.Great-tasting broth, though the chashu could be a little more tender and flavorful. Overall one of the better ramen places in the area.“

“Excellent events very fun and outgoing“

“They finally re-open for dine-in. The food is much better when eating there. Sashimi is fresh, Raman broth is yum 😋“

“The sushi rolls from this place are not simply tasty food, but pieces of arts! Besides sushi, the menu has many varieties to offer: ramen, rice, and grills snacks on sticks! The restaurant is very relax and a fun spot to dine out with friends and families. The best Japanese restaurant in town. Friendly owners and great service. I will definitely want to go back and highly recommend it!“

“Nice food and very accommodating“

“I’ve been coming here for years—always consistent. This place is quality and you can tell the owners care. I’ve tried almost everything but tend to just order a bunch of bento boxes to go. Best place for this type of food that I can think of anywhere. Highly recommend.“

“very good food served HOT and you get a lot of it!!“

“I never leave reviews but the customer service we received at 50 Shades of Rosé was undefeated from the time I made my reservation until the time that I left the bar. I made a reservation for a group of 8 and then wanted to upgrade my reservation and preorder some appetizers so I reached out. They promptly responded via email and were able to accommodate my requests. Upon my arrival, I was promptly greeted and shown to my table. The bar itself was such a vibe. We ordered two of each of the appetizers (except the wings) and they were all fresh and so good! The Congo line did not disappoint and the margaritas were so good. Every employee went above and beyond to ensure all guests were taken care of. We will be back and can't wait for the next theme!“

“One more time, absolutely delicious, and Saori always adorable with us, we were with my husband and our 2 twins sons celebrating their 21 years old !!!!!!!!!!!It was tasty, the best Japanese restaurant in Scottsdale !!!!!!!We will back for sure , soon!!!!!!!! Aligatore Saori , Merci beaucoup !!!!!!!!!!“

“Don’t even look at the menu beyond the front page. Get the hot pot.“

“I loveeeee this spot for ramen! It’s consistent every time I go! Staff is always friendly and atmosphere is good. Get the combo if you’re getting ramen, it’s silly not too. The only thing I’d change is how big the spoons are, I want to make a little bite with broth in the spoon but I can’t fit the whole thing in my mouth ?“

“We have been coming here since grand opening, food quality is excellent, they recently updated the interior and added more items to the meme. Of o course the price has increased quite a bit since but it is understandable. Good place for casual Chinese food or noodle soups.“

“We just love this place because the food & handcrafted cocktails are always great! Customer service is also very nice!“

“The best ramen in the East Valley so far...“

“Great food fast service and friendly staff“

“Came here 2 days in a row. The first day, I had the peach sour, house sake(hot), and Sapporo draft for drinks, all 10/10! For food, i had the pumpkin cilantro(vegan) and unagi hand rolls(10/10), then the Miso king ramen(10/10), followed by the kiwi strawberry sando(3/10), could be better. The next day, I had the masturi and miso tofu(vegan) rolls, followed by the spicy vegan ramen(10/10, spicy warning, but super flavorful) I also had the ramune sour(8/10), hibiki harmony(10/10), and toki whisky(6/10). I will be back again to try more! Day 3 update: You can order the spicy miso on the side for the spicy vegan ramen. Also, the crème de sake pairs well with spicy food. Beef croquettes are new to me, crispy texture, soft inside, flavor 8/10. ?
