Olily food, long wait times even when already seated, little to nothing protein so you have to buy extras and employees are not very informed about their menu

Very good ramen place

This has always been one of my go-to spots whenever I’m craving ramen.

They even offer low sodium options, which is perfect if you’re someone like me who doesn’t enjoy super salty food. Everything is always perfectly balanced and flavorful without being overwhelming.

Don’t miss their July special: $1 off ramen and free extra noodles. Such a great deal!

I tried their takoyaki tonight and became obsessed. $8 for 8 pieces is a steal, and the octopus chunks were actually big, not tiny like at some other places. Be sure to ask for spicy mayo. They do have it!

The staff is always so kind, the restaurant is clean, and the food comes out fast. I’ve consistently had amazing experiences here.

If you haven’t tried this place yet, you’re definitely missing out. Highly recommend!

This is about as authentic as it gets. I know, I've been to Japan. 😉 They greet you, Japanese style when you come in and when you leave. The Ramen is to-die-for. The Karaage Chicken or Japanese Fried Chicken is amazingly delicious. I ate a lot of it when I was in Japan and this is just was crispy, juicy, and delicious. So, what are you waiting for? Get on over to Menya Ultra and make your tastebuds do the happy dance.

I wish I could give a zero star for this place. I paid for an extra boiled egg but they didn’t give it to me in my to go order.

The ramen wasn’t mindblowing but still delicious and generous in portions. Now what I did find exceptional was the juicy negipon karaage- probably the best I’ve ever had.

This is our family go-to restaurant for ramen. I had ramen in Japan and this is the closest I have had in the states.

This is a top tier A+ ramen experience. Just great all around. We have a lot of ramen choices in San Diego, so it's really down to individual preference. I am always happy with this Menya Ultra in terms of their selections, wait times, parking, value, quality, freshness, etc. It's all very good. Get there early and get your name in. Then you can walk around and do some shopping until they are ready to seat you.

Lived in Japan for many years, this is easily the best tasting ramen I have had in the states. Had a particularly delicious and unique cold soup ramen last week that was vegan and exceptional. It was not the standard cold noodle dish I would have expected, like hiyashi chuka. While I am a fan of all the ramen they make, I really wanted to write this review to highlight this cold soup and to beg Menya to bring this cold ramen back every summer!

Reservation for two was made 6:00 pm Saturday 10/19/24. Got a call from restaurant to inform that waiting time is about 20 minutes. Arrived around 5:45 pm, my name on the greeting iPad in front the restaurant, clicked reservations now. Got inside the waitress told us that the name on the greeting iPad is for her old friends, and asks us to remake the reservation again! what is the coincidence, my name and number of guests are matching with the waitress’s old friends. Some thing wrong here or whatelse?
