Visited this place twice and enjoyed it both times. Their menu suggests a recommended extra topping for each ramen, which I think is worth the extra 2 dollars or so. The first time, I had a chicken soup ramen with wontons and chili oil (the extra topping). I enjoyed the wontons and the fried onions. The spicy ramen went well with the calpico drink I got, which was sweet with a yoghurt flavor. The second time, I had calamari appetizer with spicy mayo, and the tanaka classic ramen...

Tanaka is an amazing place to try if you are looking for a quality ramen restaurant. I don’t think there were any significant downsides other than the interesting atmosphere. But the food was incredible, the ramen was terrific, and the shrimp was on point. I couldn’t recommend it more; this is a must-stop!

Easily overlooked among the shops, restaurants, and offices in Kapolei, this hidden gem serves up some fantastic ramen and curry. I ordered the pork katsu curry bowl and was met with pure deliciousness—a perfectly golden, crispy pork tenderloin atop fluffy white rice, all smothered in rich, flavorful curry. Just thinking about it makes me hungry again! Don’t miss out—treat yourself to this amazing spot.
