You can tell everything was made fresh to order.

We came here specifically for the sushi, except they stopped serving it a while ago. We opted for the Ramen instead and it was killer. I got the Creamy Chicken with kimchi added, my partner got the build your own with Tokatsu(sp) and his grandmother got a rice bowl. I wish we had taken photos but still highly recommend. Thank you Eric for your help!

My wife and I ate lunch here for the first time and couldn't have been more pleased. The staff was very attentive and nice. All the food was delicious from the pork belly bao bun to the Tonkotsu and Spicy Miso ramen bowls. Our Kirins were served in frosted mugs which was a nice touch that kept the beer very cold. We will definitely be back.

I’m gluten free and they are very knowledgeable about what has gluten and what doesn’t. I didn’t feel like I had to advocate for myself or embarrassed having to substitute items. Would come back if I lived here!!

First time eating here and the food was amazing. Portions were a little smaller than what I'm use to, but the food was still great. Definitely will go back.

I've been coming here for what seems like maybe 4 times a month. Food never disappoints, and the service is great. But I do have to say, more kid-friendly meal options would definitely help. I always have to get the full size, chicken teriyaki that's $16 in price for my toddler. Other than that it's definitely always on my go-to list.

Highly rated restaurant for a reason. The ramen has incredible flavor. We both got the tonkotsu and the broth is excellent and fully developed. It has amazing depth. We also ordered the pork bao bun just to try and I wish I ordered 4 of them!

The portion size here is so generous. 3 pieces of thick sliced pork. This will be a 'must go' every time I come to Raleigh.

Love this place. I'm picky with my Ramen, but this place is something special. The broth is flavorful and the noodles are a great texture.

We found this place looking for a good ramen restaurant before we headed back from Raleigh. Honestly, I’d recommend it to anyone. Typically when we go to a new restaurant we order a little of everything to see how the flavors are and to see if something is lacking while something else may be phenomenal. Gen Ramen does not have to worry about any dish lacking. We ordered 1 of every bun type and truly they were all very delicious and flavorful. They had excellent amount of freshness and crispness to each bite if the ingredients were supposed to have them and I could brandy order just buns and be okay. Apologies for the buns being half eaten in the photo they were so good re couldn’t resist before I was able to snap a shot.

We also got the ramen. We got the tonkatsu and the spicy ramen. I’m not a ramen hater by any means but I always prefer Pho. That being said I’d probably choose this tonkatsu over pho any day. The broth was extremely flavorful, the noodles hat the right amount of bite to them and a perfect texture. I still can’t get over the broth which I believe is advertised of being cooked for 20 hours? Delicious
