Found amidst other small businesses and shops in the heart of Bryn Mawr, Yamazaki Ramen might just be the cozy culinary hideaway your taste buds need. It's a modest space, sure, but what it lacks in grandeur, it compensates with a soul-warming embrace, a friendly nod, and bowls of ramen that could easily steal the show in any food lover's heart.Now, let's talk about the star of our gastronomic journey--the Yamazaki Special ramen. This bowl is more than just a meal; it's a warm embrace on a cold day, a melody of flavors that sings a harmonious ode to traditional Tonkotsu ramen. With its rich pork-bone soup, tender roast pork, and an ensemble of bamboo shoots, kikurage mushrooms, red ginger, scallions, and a perfectly poached egg, it's a dish that doesn't just satisfy hunger; it nourishes the soul.Alongside this noodle nirvana, we ventured into the realm of the Gyudon Rice Bowl. Here, we found a comforting assembly of sliced beef, onions, and pickled ginger atop a bed of rice, all gently hugged by a sweet dashi sauce. The seasoned boiled egg added a nice touch, though the dish played more of a supporting role to the show-stopping ramen. It's still a solid choice for those craving a bit of variety, offering a satisfying culinary experience.Yamazaki Ramen stands as a testament to the joys of simple, heartfelt cooking. In this unassuming spot, you'll find dishes crafted with care, flavors that linger long after the last bite, and a reminder of the quiet power of a well-made bowl of ramen.So, if find yourself in Bryn Mawr and in search of a quick & tasty bite, Yamazaki Ramen checks all of the boxes.

Wow! I went with my best friend from kindergarten to celebrate our yearly anniversary. We weren’t expecting the best service of all of our anniversaries together. PATRICK put on a show! He even showed us how the chili sauce works. Amazing. 10/10. Keep doing a great job, PATRICK. We will come back specifically for PATRICK.

First time here. Everyone ordered a mini curry rice bowl, charshu onigirl and ramen. The mini curry bowl and charshu onigirl were fantastic. I ordered a shoyu ramen with chicken. It was a bit too salty for my taste, but still good. They were also out of bamboo shoots.Good food for a good price. I would come again.

Just not a very good bowl of ramen. The broth was oddly thick, the noodles weren't great.

Spicy ramen is my go to lunch on a cold winter day. Trying hard not to go everyday so I dont ruin it lol. Broth really hits the spot everytime. Sometimes i will ask for extra broth on the side and the service is very good, only thing is their wooden chairs are very cold to sit on during winters, wish they could put down some padding
Excellent spot for an affordable and delicious meal. Staff is very friendly and professional. Service is fast. Food is made with quality and expertise. Ambiance is clean, bright and inviting.
