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.

Honestly this is my favorite Ramen restaurant! Highly recommend getting their char siu pork buns and they have the best niko soba ramen!

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.

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.

Ordered vegetable ramen. 95% noodles, flavorless. First time, won’t order there again. Was working late and decided to stop in should have went home and made my own.

Great ramen, didn’t try anything else on the menu, place wasn’t very busy, so service was on point, only had to glance up and someone was right there. Got an extra ramen to go. Highly recommend for anyone that likes ramen.

I went to the store last night. The employee kept sweeping the floor while I was eating. Do you think it's your time to clean up while the guests are eating?
