I love Daiichi Ramen. All of the locations I have been to pretty much operate the EXACT same (Kailua and Kapolei). It's never been too busy when I've gone since it's always midday, after lunch and before dinner. The service is quick and I've never had to wait long at all to get my food.

My husband and I stopped in here for a quick lunch while visiting the Big Island, and did not regret our decision! The service was quick and friendly and the food was delicious, which is saying a lot as we lived in Japan (and had lots of delicious ramen while there) for four years. Highly recommend!

Food 4/5 - Ordered chicken katsu plate and a side of pork fried rice. Chicken katsu was fried nicely and the breading was fine. It was definitely a bigger portion than I expected. The pork fried rice had very good “wok-hei” great flavor. Miso soup was watery and was lacking flavor, although it was served nice and hot.

Price $$ - Price is good with the portions that were served.

Service 3/5 - Service is average, we needed to flag down a server to refill our drinks.

Atmosphere 3/5 - Interior is fine but not much of a Japanese theme, the lanterns remind me of a Chinese restaurant.

Overall - Had a pleasant experience and would visit again.

Delicious food, friendly fast service. I had the spicy tonkatsu ramen and my husband chose the chicken curry, both were great! Welcome change from the tourist traps by our hotel.

One of my favorite go to places for ramen, udon, yakisoba, fried rice, chicken katsu curry and more. I love everything here. Great food, lots of flavor, umami everything ! It's great comfort food ! The portions are awesome , everything's fresh and you can tell they make their own noodles, broth and soy eggs. Highly reccomend this place for everyone who enjoys japanese style ramen.
