“Small but very friendly restaurant tucked away in Mililani mauka. The girl up front was very nice and friendly. The food was very good I didn’t know what to expect. The shoyu pork was amazing definitely would get again. My wife got the ahi cakes and she enjoyed them too. My son got the teriyaki chicken it was a little dry, but he did enjoy the hotdog. Would definitely go back and try other dishes.“

“I had very high hopes for this place.A few weeks ago, I stopped by for the first time and got beef curry and gyoza to go. It was spectacular! Decided to go for the ramen next visit.And I did.I wanted to get the thickest, most robust flavored soup, so I got the "Special" tonkotsu black garlic ramen.I really liked the visual presentation. Very vibrant, neat and appetizing.As with most ramen takeouts, the soup and noodles were packaged in separate containers. Before pouring the soup into the ramen bowl, I took a little sip.It was a tad disappointing, as I had such high hopes for this shop. The soup was a bit on the bland side. I guess the fried garlic chips are supposed to carry the flavor but there's nothing else. What I did notice was a slight slimy texture and a hint of odor. This probably indicates that inferior pork bones were used to draw the soup stock.For those of you who don't know how tonkotsu soup is made, ignorance is bliss. If you knew exactly what's in it, you may be traumatized!So, I'll spare you the details. What I will say is that hours of boiling the pork bones is needed to extract the umami, but other ingredients are crucial too. Grated ginger, garlic cloves, salt and pepper are some of the common items that are used. Despite the shortcomings of the tonkotsu soup, I have high hopes that Rakumen could be a top contender in the ramen world if they tweaked their soup just a little bit. Use better quality pork bones would be one. Adding a bit more flavor would be the other. *I had some leftover soup, so I added a little grated ginger and garlic with a few drops of la-yu to it and already, it was about as good as the other ramen shops in town. I give them 4 stars despite the seemingly harsh critique of their tonkotsu, because of their prompt and courteous service. But most of all, I believe that they will only get better.Looking forward to visiting again to up them to 5 stars!“

“Everything tasted fresh and customer service was exceptional. Rolls are large for the price. Samurai roll I felt was lacking in flavor, not much “spice” in the spicy tuna or spicy salmon but improved with soy sauce and wasabi. Overall a great experience and I recommend the O’toro nigiri and lychee martini. Certainly the highlight of the night.“

“The food was delicious. I've been here 3 times now.They have an all you can eat menus with different price ranges. I believe it starts at $45 a person and goes up. Each level, you get more food options. But you have 90 minutes to complete it. The cocktails and ice cream were delicious, and if you need help with cooking, you can ask your waiter for tips.Parking: They have a parking lot but it is shared with other stores.“

“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.“
