Ramen Kumamoto, a hidden gem in Delaware, continues to captivate ramen enthusiasts and broth aficionados alike. This cozy ramen shop offers a slurp-tastic experience, showcasing the art of ramen-making with a menu filled with delicious options. It is often busy, so visiting during off-peak times is recommended. The restaurant features a small, inviting environment with lantern-shaped lamps and TVs playing anime, which adds to its warm atmosphere. Seating can be tight, making it less ideal for large families, and parking is pay-to-park as spaces fill up quickly. The staff is friendly, efficient, and attentive, ensuring quick service without rushing customers.
The Miso Ramen remains a bowl of soul-warming comfort, where the harmonious marriage of pork and chicken broth embraces the miso paste. It is filled with wavy egg noodles, well-cooked charshu, kikurage, menma, bean sprouts, scallions, sesame seeds, and a seasoned egg. The Mayu Ramen features a Berkshire pork bone broth with mayu—dark roasted leek with garlic oil—creating a rich, complex flavor, complemented by thin straight noodles, charshu, red ginger, kikurage, menma, bean sprouts, scallions, and a seasoned egg.
Recent reviews highlight the delicious food and generous portions, with dishes like the $14 Tonkotsu and karaage curry rice receiving high praise. Many have also enjoyed the Gyoza, Tonkatsu Ramen, and Shrimp Tempura Udon, noting the excellent atmosphere and impeccable service. The food's flavor and quality have impressed many, and the friendly, quick service makes it a favorite spot for ramen lovers. Ramen Kumamoto is considered one of the best places to enjoy ramen, offering warmth, comfort, and a memorable dining experience, with no downsides reported by satisfied customers.
