Absolutely amazing service by my guy Asher! The food was great and got that lunch special. Katsu Ramen was dank af, I highly recommend this place. Hope you get my uncle Asher to serve you and makes you feel at home.

I love their ramen and variety. Simple yet good quality at a reasonable price. Their chicken ramen is great.

Service from youngsters is local, friendly and sincere. Shirokiya bar furniture and stools not comfy so no leaning back to relax. Shio noodles were lighter than other faves, lil salty and vegies fresh. Tsukumen was also decent. Char siu on round thick side but good. Enjoyed kimchi wontons but wanna try gyozas. Garlic fried rice was small bowl for $6 but tasty. No alcohol nor BYOB so definitely a takeout choice.

Loved the ramen soup. Sure, the name is a bit obnoxious but the ramen is spot on. They have a Windward Mall food court location as well.

First time. Not bad. The first slurp is always the true test. Nice. Firm noods and tasty chasu. Friendly efficient staff. Gotta come back and try more items.

First time dining in here, probably my last. First bummer no alcohol and no BYOB, second gyoza sauce sweet, third tan tan ramen soup sweet also, fourth bamboo shoots crunchy, soft egg brown yolk. Service was good, server upbeat and attentive. Nice clean restaurant so I guess I'll add another star, 2 stars now.

This unassuming place is a hidden jewel! It was a pleasant experience from start to end. The service was perfect, the employees were personable, attentive to our needs, helpful, and gave us wonderful service. The food was delicious. I really wasn't particularly a ramen fan but after this experience I 'm going to have to change my stance on ramen. I loved everything about this place!

I have been here many times. There are tables and chairs for dine in. Menu has a good selection of ramen and other appetizers. My most favorite is Kim chee Ramen with bacon. They are the only place to have this ramen. The service for take out and dine by employees is great because they are very knowledgeable. I want to come back and try everything. Yum.
First off, service was really good! As for the ramen... very glamorized but taste was honestly lacking. I tried it, while working around the area, since I read good things on Yelp. I had the blackened tonkotsu and the garlic was blackened to the point where it had no flavor except burnt garlic. The tonkotsu broth was not rich and the gyoza was supermarket grade stale. The noodles were too thin for my liking. Cost was okay except for the gyoza. If someone else is paying, I'll probably eat there again.

Whenever I come to O'ahu I have to come to Noods. It's my favorite spot on the island for some great ramen. I love their Shoyu, perfect chew with the thin noodles and rich broth! Their kimchi potstickers are unexpectedly amazing. The flavor and texture blew my taste buds away we had to order some to go as well. It's always welcoming, and if you have any questions the staff is more than helpful. The ambiance is clean, open, Music and TV's for entertainment, and I also love that they have art work by one of my favorite artist Vincent Trinidad.

Totally blown away! The ramen was very innovative and delicious. We had the black garlic tonkatsu ramen, spicy Thai curry ramen (spice level 4, very nice), and garlic chili oil gyoza. No extra toppings or substitutions, you eat it the way the chef intended. Service was super friendly! Can’t wait to come back and try the rest of their creations.

Menu offered a lot from appetizers, various ramen selections along with a monthly ramen special and add-ons like fried rice, etc. The service was good and they were very attentive to refilling our waters and checking in often. Ambiance was chill and laid back. Price was a little on the high side based on portion. It would be nice to have ramen set combos like other places rather than ordering everything ala carte. The only thing I would not get next time is the chili garlic gyoza as the cooked garlic tasted on the burnt side. We were kind of bummed there wasn't any alcohol or beer choices. Overall it's nice to have a ramen place near our apartment, however I would have to say there are other go-to ramen spots like Gomatei and Jinya Ramen that will remain our top favorites.

Best ramen in kaimuki. Those eggs, the noodles, the broth. Don't forget the Kim chi potstickers and that this place does great takeout!!!!
