Ramen Restaurants near Aiea, HI

“I randomly decided to try out this place and I got the Garlic Chicken plate. The chicken was cooked very well and the service was super fast (I was there at 9 PM). From walking in the ambiance was honestly not there. I feel like if this place had a good feel when you walked in, it could be top tier. I would've given it 4.5 stars if it was possible because it was missing just a little bit of flavor, but I understand that it is primarily a ramen restaurant. I will definitely try it again!“

“Really good ramen!!
Sampled off everyone’s broth at my table, and all of the soups were perfect!
Noodles tasted very fresh and perfectly cooked!
Front of house staff extremely friendly and helpful with recommendations!“

“Great place for comfort food of ramen and fried rice and gyoza. Owner is really friendly as well.

Parking: Can get very busy as times, but going early allowed for lots of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor, so no stairs to deal with. Handicap stalls are close to their front door.“

“best ramen ever. You wont regret it.“

“servings is big and full filling“

“Our family LOVES Junpuu! Our favorite restaurant ❤️“

“Found this place last minute when I was around the area. I'm so glad I did! Hole in the wall, local gem, mom and pop shop. The food was so delicious! I got the Wongton min, that one comes with noodles. The wonton soup just comes with wonton only FYI. I also got a bbq beef stick.
The day I went, it was really hot, humid I was craving for something cool but stumbled on this place cuz I was craving noodles. The broth was so good and really just soothed my soul. Everything was amazing and I wish I got the larger bowl.
The follow day I took my friend and she said this was the best wonton soup she had in a very long time (since her mom passed). We both really enjoyed this place and recommend, will be going again next time we visit Oahu!

This place is small and parking is limited but ppl don't stay long. The ppl who work are really nice and this place is always busy so be patient if they don't sit you right away, even if a table is open. They got you, they know what they are going if they have been in business for 79 years! 😬“

“1. Super Clean 2. Very Ono 3. Excellent Customer Service Awesome 👏“

“I stumbled on this place by accident (one would have to as it's in the very back of the Market), and I ordered the takoyaki, the karaage, and the Miso ramen. I was a little worried when the karaage first came out because it was very dark and I was worried it was overcooked. It was slightly crispier than I usually prefer, but very good. The takoyaki were also excellent - the subtle extra crisp made for a delightful final product. The Miso ramen, however, was delicious! No notes, except for one to myself - don't leave the ramen until last, as the meat on top did cool down quite a bit before I started on the ramen!

Be prepared to fight for seating, and woe betide anyone that wants to bring a large group here.“

“Excellent Ramen and friend rice“

“Our first time here and wished it was at the beginning of our visit because we would make sure we ate there again. This will definitely be our go to place when we visit the island again.“

“Rich and umami sesame and miso broth that isn't too salty, perfectly balanced, with springy noodles and fresh greens (just as for no egg and the vegetarian ramen is instantly vegan), the perfect comforting bowl of ramen with the Daikon Salad on the side (just ask for no Bonito Flakes).. I don't know WHAT the previous reviewer was going on about calling the ramen bland, it was great and I'm glad I went (will be back for sure). The Diakon salad is super refreshing, service was phenomenal, don't overlook this hole-in-the-wall! It gets busy because it's so good!“

“Hamamatsu style gyoza is awesome delicious! Ramen is great. Love those tonkatsu bites! Sapporo on tap. This is going to be our new favorite ramen joint!“

“Unique delicious complex flavors. Friendly staff ❤️“

“One of the best bowls of ramen and most delicious takoyaki I’ve ever had!! I tried the Vegan Tantanmen ramen with added tofu. The broth was so good-rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Great portion as well. The takoyaki was perfectly crispy on the outside, with a soft, smooth inside and balanced umami taste. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Very friendly and good food! Best dish I had during my 8 day stay.“

“We've been going to Lucky Belly since it opened. To say it's a Ramen restaurant is not quite true. Our absolute favorite dish is called Shrimp Kimchee Bowl. It's not like any Ramen you've ever had. Spicy, areas of cold, warm and hot. Perfectly cooked large shrimp that has a delicate coating. Unusual type of wood ears. Bean sprouts and ramen noodles. A perfectly cooked soft boiled egg and possibly the greatest broth you've ever had. We just came back to Oahu where we live after spending an entire month in Paris. We couldn't wait to have this dish. Every waitstaff is intimately involved with the cooking techniques and they all have the aloha spirit. By the way, if you are still hungry have the lobster shu mai in a delicate burre blanc. The greatest dumpling on Oahu.“

“Impeccable service coupled with amazing food. I come from Irvine so we got good ramen but damn not like this. The atmosphere was cozy and homie. No obligation to dress up all fancy. Just a good focus on service and food. Employees are really cool, nice and helpful. We even watched the Max Holloway BMF fight on our phones. Def check this place out whether it’s for good vibes or great food.“

“Outstanding ramen choices!“

“Good and it really was a good experience“

“Good stuff!! Try the tsukumen.“

“Gyoza, pronounced like "dumpling", is actually "pot sticker". The fillings are cabbage, leeks and minced pork. It's crispy, not greasy, and has just the right salty taste. It's delicious without adding soy sauce.
Various restaurants are surrounded by a small indoor food court (Lanai), with a spacious space and a leisurely atmosphere.“

“Nice little ramen restaurant next to Don Quitos. I ordered the tsukemen and it was good. The broth was flavorful with a slight spicy kick, fatty and aromatic with woodland mushrooms and an ajitama egg. It was well-seasoned but served lukewarm, and I would have preferred it hotter. The noodles had a pleasant chew, though a slightly thicker cut would have made it even better.“

“Stopped by the other evening to give Tanaka Saimin a try. I called in my order and it was packed up and ready when I arrived. The young lady that assisted me at the counter was super sweet. We got Tuna Cheese Melts with Miso Soup, a cup of Corn Chowder Soup and a scoop of their Macaroni Potato Salad.

We thought the sandwiches were delicious but would've loved a more crisp exterior. It came with a choice of Miso Soup, Fries, Mac Salad or Toss Green Salad. The Miso Soup was full of tofu and had a good flavor. The Corn Chowder was full of Potatoes and Corn and was delicious as well. The Macaroni Potato Salad had a great flavor and paired well with the sandwiches. I'd recommend stopping by if you're in the area. If I get the opportunity to return I plan to try the Won Ton Min... that looks good!“

“Really great food at great prices! A great neighborhood place to eat at or to grab a smoothie or milk tea! 😉“

“We are on holidays from Australia and went on a Go Hawaii tour yesterday with Ian as our guide who recommended we try Sumo Ramen.
It was great! The staff were lovely and very attentive. The food was great and the prices were extremely reasonable.
Would recommend a visit to anyone wanting quick, cheap yet high quality food.“

“Lovely dining experience, wonderful service“

“Teishoku and the combination plates, fills you up at affordable prices.“

“This place is awesome, seriously authentic food well prepared and served by the nicest people, I would go there again in a heartbeat“

“The Tan Tan Ramen is excellent! Portion is big and delicious. When TonTon Ramen closed, we found Goma Tei Ramen Kahala!!! ❤️ 🍜 🥟 🍚 🍤 🍗 😋“

“This place was a bit hard for us to find due to the place being listed twice in the same building. The restaurant is on the ground floor and part of Noodle Street.
The place was quiet when we arrived around 3 on Thanksgiving Day but picked up when we left. We were seated promptly, and the hostess took our order without delay. They had vegan options, and they didn't charge more for it. All servings were one size, but they were hearty.
The food came relatively quickly and the ramen was just the right consistency. I finished all my vegan broth and my daughter's Waikiki special was loaded. I hope you find the time to give this establishment a visit.

Vegetarian options: They have both vegan and vegetarian option clearly labeled on the menu.“

“best ramen ever. You wont regret it.“

“Best tsukamem! Large portion of noodles with excellent dipping sauce. Neighbors eating fried chicken and fries which looked delicious. One wait staff took care of the entire place with great efficiency. Would go back again.“

“**edit 10/20** been here 2 more times now, its my go to lunch place when im in the area for authentic Japanese food? Tried their Tonkotsu ramen with side rice and gyoza, and also the Daily Special which was the Aimori bento (chicken karaage and ginger pork). Friendly service and food that is made to order??**

Legit little authentic Japanese diner/take out place that I stumbled upon looking for another restaurant in Honolulu. Located in the building with restaurants on King Street and Keeaumoku, where Sushi Sasabune is located. This place is at the end to the left.

There was a late lunch crowd when i walked in so took a little while to be seated. Note that this place is run by two people so if youre in a rush, this isnt the place for you as the food is prepared on order so it takes some time.

They were running a promotion the day i went, which was Niku no hi, or Meat Day where if you ordered a specific meal, you would get 150% more. Since it was my first time here, the waitress suggested the popular Karaage Fried Chicken Plate, which I gladly ordered.

Took a while for the meal to arrive since there were two parties seated in front of me, and their meals looked great too... Especially the ramen. When my meal arrived it was piping hot, the way I like it. Squeeze the lemon on and it came with a shoyu dipping sauce that I felt didnt need. The chicken was crisp, not oily and already marinated before fried just like you would eat in Japan.

There was more chicken than I could eat in one sitting so I took half of it home. Would recommend if in the area, Im sure their other dishes are excellent too?5 stars.

Parking: Free parking lot in the back of restaurant and street metered parking in front (free if on Sundays)“

“Went a second time here today and was not disappointed! We love Nagoya Ramen !“

“Japanese Ramen food is delicious 😋“

“Saturday take out 2 Ramen Set, one with beef curry/rice and the other with Mochiko chicken (tasty, tender and moist not like other places). Got it between 2 to 5 pm so we got a total of 16 gyozas. 4 each with each Set plus 4 more for each set.
Also, take out ramen is separated, noodles charsiu in one container and the hot soup in another container. 👍
Shucks, I didn’t take any photos 🤦🏽
Next time I will cause going there again.
🙏👍💕“

“The food was absolutely delicious! I love everything and how it was in such a good price for hot pot. The service was quick and got seated in minutes. The server was sweet and checked on us to make sure how everything is. I saw how quick our food came out. The food was hot and fresh and the chicken was crispy. The soup was very flavorful. Each plating was so unique and beautiful. And how we didn’t had to wait that long for our service. I will definitely come back and highly recommend others to come.“

“Decided to explore something new in the area and stumbled upon this excellent establishment. Visited post-lunch hours, so it wasn't overly crowded. A down-to-earth restaurant offering delightful katsu curries and ramen. The food arrived surprisingly quickly. We tried the spam, chicken, and shrimp katsu curries, all delicious, though the crunch was a bit hard. The combo sets are a great choice; we went for Combo A. The fried rice and mini ramen were spot on. If you crave ramen or curry, this spot is a must-try.“

“A really respectable Japanese curry at a great price. The server was super attentive even during the lunch rush (I'm pretty sure my drink was never empty). This place is all about the fundamentals and is really no frills, but it does those fundamentals really well and doesn't charge you out the ass which is pretty rare in downtown.“

“Anytime my mom asked, “Do you wanna go get Ayame ramen?” my answer was always, “Yes! YAY, Ayame!” As a kid, this was the first place I ever had ramen that wasn’t from a cup or a packet, and it made a huge impact on my tastebuds and what I’d be open to trying for the rest of my life.

Their curry and ramen are both incredible. I still remember staring at the fish cake, wondering what it was, but loving the flavor and texture, and thinking the bright pink swirl looked so cool. I even started putting chili oil in my ramen at a young age because of this place, I loved the heat and the flavor.

This place left such a lasting impression on me, and I would love to revisit and experience that nostalgia again, especially with my mom. That’s the heart of what makes a great restaurant, when someone loves their food enough to share it, and it becomes part of your memories together.

Wishing your restaurant many blessings and continued good fortune. I hope the families who come in today get to enjoy the ramen as much as I did, because 20 years later, I still remember that first bowl.“

“The truffle ramen is so meccha oishii! I will order it again and again!“

“Delicious pastries! I love their Pork Vegetable Fried Noodles. And their pork broth is so good, and so different from the other ramen places that I’ve been to.“

“A hidden gem. The prices are reasonable. The spicy chicken wings are amazing and crispy. I love the fried rice and the curry combos.“

“I ate dinner at Baikokhen Ramen Waikiki and loved it! The chef made an excellent bowl of ramen and the staff was amazing! I’ll be back for sure… Peace & ❤️“

“I think I ate this at least once a day every time I come to Honolulu, I'm from socal so I have great Chinese food options but HNC has THE BEST chili oil in the world, drizzle that on their shrimp fried rice and get their beef noodle soup that they give you extra beef tallow for and put the chili oil in that too and it's so damn good and addicting I can't stop eating it, the best beef noodle soup, they need to sell the chili oil in stores. I met the owner and his daughter last time I was there super cool dude, tried to convince him to open up a spot in OC since he's from there but he said no 😂😂“

“I have been here twice; once for breakfast and once for plate lunch. Both were solid meals, good portions and I got out under $15. I had a Portuguese sausage omelet for breakfast and chicken katsu curry for lunch. The picture is half way through the regular size portion. The interior doesn't have a lot of seating but it's clean and air conditioned.. . I highly recommend this Ewa Beach hole in the wall. Plus they cater. Ono-licious.“

“Good if you want ramen and something quick. I came here on my break and ordered a sukiyaki ramen with a side order of kakiage tempura. Food came out in about 3-4 min. Ramen is standard, nothing too special about it. I was disappointed in the kakiage tempura because it was soggy right after I received it.“
