Overall, Aoyama Ramen is an enjoyable experience for someone who might want to try Japanese food. The service and time of meals are good, and is a healthy choice! In Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, it is convenient for the go and to dine in. It isn't busy at all, it has a humble amount of people dining. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars, because of the mochi ice cream, and the texture was disturbing. Other than that, this place should be more recommended! You can go check in Yelp for 15% off your first visit today, so go right now!! Aoyama Ramen, the ambiance of the restaurant is warm and welcoming, serving Japanese cuisine. At Newtown Square, this place provides a hot place for those who are cold! I went a few weeks ago, on my first visit, with my brother. The first look when we went inside the entrance, was a soothing wooden lounge. We were placed near the windows, with a soft cushion for people sitting. A TV played soccer games, with a cover of southeast asian music. Our server was an amiable woman, she allowed us to take our time choosing. She was very patient as well and wrote our meals and drinks quickly. I ordered the seaweed salad and the 6-piece Karaage chicken (a popular dish) as our appetizers, which looked promising and flavorful in the photo. When our appetizers came, it was delicious. The seaweed salad had Wakame seaweed, a type of hydrated bright green seaweed. The bowl for the seaweed was decorated with artificial grass as well. The Karaage chicken was piping hot, as the chicken had just come off the grill. It was finely drizzled with a type of secret sauce, which tasted like mayo but sweeter and tangier. It was garnished with green onions as the final piece and onions on the side. With one bite, I felt the sauce and the rich fried chicken overflowing my mouth. The chicken exploded into my mouth, the outside being crunchy, and the inside being so soft and tender. After we ate our appetizers, I ordered the Japanese Curry Don bowl for myself and the Aoyama spicy ramen for my brother. We decided to get water to drink since we had just had a sweet drink earlier. While we were waiting, I noticed that around our seats, the restaurant was sparkling clean. Not a single drop of dirt nor shininess. When our food came, I noticed the appearance of the curry immediately. They made a bowl of rice and then added the Japanese curry. When I grabbed a spoon and dug in, the taste was so savory and warming, It could make someone cry. They also added chicken and vegetables to the curry, which also added to the amazing taste. The food portions were terrific too, since I can't finish many Japanese curries in most restaurants because of huge portions, it allowed me to eat all of it! When we finished eating our meals, we decided to get dessert. I ordered the strawberry ice cream mochi, which was cut into 8 blocks, showing the ice creams. They had a dollop of whipped cream in the center, rising higher than if you put the 8 blocks on top of each other. They had wooden toothpicks to be able to eat the 8 blocks of ice cream, which helped the process instead of using a metal fork and causing a mess. The texture was incredible... AWFUL. It tasted like ice cream turning into ice sand. It felt like sand and ice mixed, to make a mochi ice cream. The total of the meals we had was an average price. It was $49, which I would say, is an acceptable price for the food. Food Critic: Violet Pham

Good ramen. I have had a few a different bowls now and they have all been good. Service is friendly and usually quick. It is usually busier than it looks because they do a lot of door dash deliveries. The place is chill and I like the posters on the wall, good vibe. I'll be back again.

Unfortunately we came here twice and got diarrhea both times. My boyfriend tried two different dishes here and still ended up having stomach problems. The food is decent unless you're unlucky like us.

My sisters and i was in the mood for a nice ramen noodles, we found this place and decided to give it a try. Great decisions. All 3 of us ordered 3 different ramen and all of them delicious.. i still thinking of them till now and cant wait to eat there again. Takoyaki and the bobba was superb too.. next time i want to try other things since everything we got was really good. Reasonable price, Staff also really friendly, the dining area is not big but pretty good space, clean and comfortable. Def will be back and def recommended.
This place is great. Being in my 30s my body doesn't tolerate ramen. Not from here tho. I recommend the Aoyama Spicy. Food is great everytime and the staff are friendly.

Ordered the spicy ramen to go.. loved the seaweed layered over a soft boiled egg surrounded by a meaty layer of meat and noodles.. used 1/2 container of sauce which I will make my own ramen noodles tomorrow night.. when you check in on Yelp there is a coupon for 15% off order! We will return..

Absolute Ramen perfection. Nothing too overdone - just like a spot you'd find in
My godsister and I ordered two appetizers and two ramens for a quick lunch takeout. They were all good.Veggie ramen, 4.5/5: my sister ordered this one and really liked it. She added an extra egg and that extra piece was super complementary to the dish. She loved the broth, the texture, and the taste. Classic ramen 3/5: there was nothing extraordinary about this Tonkatsu ramen. At the same time, there's nothing bad for the price, it's not bad at all!Bang bang shrimp, 4.5/5: this was really good! The sweet sauce went really well the crunchy breading!Takoyaki 4/5: once again, really good app! The sauce and the flakes mixed really well! The dough and the squid had a good balance.$44ish for the four items post-tax.

Never thought I would come across a great ramen spot in a small town but Aoyama Ramen was there to do it. Service was good and food was good as well. Seaweed salad was tasty. Bothe the ramen we ordered had amazing broths. Tasty, not too salty and was smooth. All the toppings mixed well together. If you have a good spice tolerance I would suggest ordering the spicy ramen as it tasted great.

The food was ok. The ramen was great. However we thought that service could be a tad better. We did like the tea. The Ramen did hit the spot however check took some time to come in.
Great atmosphere. I was greeted and seated right away. I really wanted a traditional bowl of Japanese ramen and this hit the spot. The broth packed more flavor that I expected and was light despite the richness of the pork. A nice jammy egg. The noodles were chewy but in a good way. Chasu was tender and good. Would highly recommend both dish and restaurant.
