This is the first time to enter the restaurant which makes me feel cozy, the ramen noodles here are very delicious and it is very cheap even though it is in down town, they have very delicious and very cheap Takoyaki! I will come back again!!! 🫶
When we are in St. Paul we always try to hit up here!
The char su pork buns are out of this world! And Niko soba ramen is amazing!
I've tried it at other locations but this one is my favorite! So happy to have them apart of our community!

If it wasn't for the slow service this place would've gotten a full 5 star review from me. Besides that the ramen was absolutely amazing and flavorful! I'll definitely be returning their and hopefully it'll be even better

I was sooo happy to be here!!! We need a location here Des Moines Iowa. Came here for a family getaway/ vacation and this was soo great for all of us !!! My bubbly tea was sooo good mango flavor 😋. This place is so chile. Children friendly, it's totally a vibe, nice and quiet, small and comforting environment. Small but decent size free parking lot, as well as a couple of spots for street parking too.

We went to Ishita for lunch and enjoyed it very much. The service was excellent. The food was very good. It exceeded my expectations. The food was delivered to the table hot and delicious. It was very eye appealing. Too often we've been disappointed with Japanese restaurants, but this one did not disappoint. My wife had ramen and I had donburi. We also had vegetable egg rolls as an appetizer. We definitely are coming to this restaurant again. Thanks to the very nice server who was very welcoming and efficient.

I would not return. This is a Chinese version of Japanese ramen. I'm Chinese, but was looking for more authentic flavors.
👎 Happy hour half price beer not really half price as menu says full price $5, but a separate small menu says actually $3.25. No glass cups for beer, just plastic. Can smell cleanser on first entering. Gyoza looks like pan fried dumplings, that remind me of Costco. Char siu ramen noodles did not taste like Japanese ramen noodles to me. Char siu was seared well but overcooked and tough. Broth tasted like unfiltered water was used, with a lingering chlorine taste. But there was some depth to the broth.
👍 Great decor, including the dinnerware. Service was kind. Bathroom in good condition.
I was first customer right after open on the day and ordered Ramen as usual (I go here often) But their foods is not good lately This time…The Ramen soup was spoiled. Taste bad. Looks much deferent from the picture on menu.(missing some ingredients )
I told them but even no apologize and no discount or refund
We won’t go

This restaurant is good, authentic ramen. I've been to other well-reviewed ramen shops in TC only to be consistently disappointed by the excessive salt used to cover up quality and subtlety. This ramen shop, however, is much better balanced, which allows the individual to actually taste the flavors and the quality of the ingredients. I probably won't be going to any other ramen shop in TC going forward.

When me and my grandparents came here the first thing that I saw was obviously, the inside. Against my better judgment I didn’t trust it. Boy was I wrong. From the first sip of the exquisite taro milk tea with the chewy tapioca pearls to the last sip of tasty vegetable ramen my eyes watered with joy that such a place existed. Even after I was swaying and looking into to distance as the consequences of eating too much, I still continued, determined to finish it. From the polite service to the amazing food, I would die for this .

Got the tonkotsu ramen with the shredded pork. The shredded pork was the highlight tbh. Broth and noodles were ok.

Vibes were great. Staff was friendly and polite. Food was delicious.
The neighborhood was a little sketchy but that’s just a heads up for future patrons.
