Some restaurants try to do it all but in my opinion, it's the ones that stick to one thing and one thing only that really stand out. Golden Pork Tonkotsu Ramen Bar stands on the peak of Hawaiian Tonkotsu ramen. They have three different broths (original, spicy miso, black garlic), some different sides, appeitzers, rice dishes, but that's about it. This is a place that has honed their craft and you can really tell. The broth was incredible. The noodles were firm and chewy. Standard toppings and garnishes. All in all, if you want good tonkotsu, look no further. Food is on the cheaper side though parking is a little difficult. There is a free lot but it's a tight squeeze.

Fantastic ramen and gyoza 🥟! Definitely worth going back. Small restaurant with limited seating. Love the spicy ramen! Quick, friendly service.

The first meal I wanted after landing in Honolulu was a great bowl of ramen and Golden Pork delivered! I ordered the Black Garlic Tsukemen which was savory and rich. My wife ordered the original Tonkotsu ramen and the broth was porky and satisfying. The Grilled Mackerel appetizer was also delicious. Overall I walked out of this place full and happy.

Aloha; this place is great from unreal ramen to the fried chicken you can’t get more authentic. Service is amazing and you get that old Japan feel. This is a must if you enjoy amazing ramen and pupus

Parking: There is a free parking lot with literally 4 or 5 spots. It's one way in/out without much room to turn around, so beware.

Metered street parking is up and down the block.

I had the pork bone ramen. The boss of my co-worker who joined us had tsukemen.
I'm happy to be able to eat delicious tonkotsu ramen in Hawaii.

I tried their Spicy Red Tsukemen, chat siu bowl, and agedeshu tofu. Each dish was perfect. Loved the flavors of each dish.
If I had anything negative to say, I wish the portion size of my ramen was a little larger, but that's because it was so delicious.

If you come to Ala Moana Shopping Center, we recommend the tonkotsu ramen and gyoza here! It's not that expensive and it's delicious! The staff are friendly and can speak Japanese. You can also take out.

I went there because I wanted Japanese food.
The quality is unbelievable from Hawaii.

There's probably a long line in Japan too.
I had black ramen with pepper and garlic.

Yuck. Ramen. The broth was horrible - smell funky, taste even worse.
This is second and last visit to this place - first time had garlic version which wasn't good. Decided to try the classic - and now I understand - without extra things to mask the horrible flavor of the broth very obvious they are not using good quality or fresh pork to make the broth and everything in the bowl - noodles, veggies, etc has that horrible taste. I won't be going back here every again.

The best authentic Tonkatsu Ramen on Oahu!

Golden Pork’s tonkatsu ramen was outstanding. Thick broth, thin noodles, very hot and very creamy. The pork was cut thin, but you’re induced 3 slices, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. It’s so hard to find thin noodles on Oahu too!

On top of that the service was fast and the atmosphere felt like flying to a local ramen restaurant in Japan. Will be retuning very soon to try something else.

Don’t forget the ice cream bun at the end! ?
