“Overall, the food was very filling, very tasty, and the presentation was especially nice.
I had the curry ramen which was very rich, bold, and really packed a punch of flavor. My wife got the classic ramen, which was much more mild in flavor, but adding chili oil to it helped.
The classic ramen came with pretty large, thick pieces of chashu pork that were so tender, your lip could bite through it, and it felt like it melted on your palette, very good stuff.
The curry ramen came with ground pork, which I know isn't uncommon to get in some types of ramen in Japan and I wanted to try it. Throughout eating the bowl, the ground pork was distributed pretty evenly in the noodles you slurp up, so you get some consistently in most of your bites. Now that I have tried it, I do think I like the bigger pieces of pork in my ramen. It wasn't bad at all though, just preference. If I hadn't gotten the curry ramen I think I would have disliked this spot for how mild-tasting the classic ramen was.
We also ordered multiple other small dishes to really try out a diverse selection of what Itto Ramen Bar has to offer. We ordered the takoyaki, the pan-fried pork gyoza, the pork buns, and the tuna samba.
The takoyaki came out a little dark which effected the taste negatively, but they weren't bad.
The gyoza were tasty, but I find that gyoza, no matter where you go, is usually about the same flavor and quality.
I was happy to see steamed pork buns on the menu, I don't see them offered at many places and I really enjoyed them, though the amount of bbq chashu pork in them was a bit disappointing. The acid of the yuzu sauce that accompanies them cut through the richness of the pork, but it was a little sour at times due to there being a smaller amount of pork than I believe was needed inside them.
Finally, the tuna samba, which is raw tuna wrapped peppers with masago and a spicy sauce; I didn't eat any of them as my wife was the one interested in ordering them, she seemed to really enjoy them though and was praising the presentation and flavor combination presented by the dish.
The price of everything was a little high in my opinion, I have gone to other ramen joints that charge less for their food and still manage to package great flavor and quality along with the lower price tag.
Though not the absolute best ramen I've ever had, Itto Ramen Bar is the first place I have ever found a curry ramen to try, and it did not disappoint.“

“To Go Order (Door Dashed) I usually don’t leave reviews but I have to say, I throughly enjoyed every single bite of sushi tonight. I ordered two rolls, the Crazy California Roll and the Black Tiger Roll. It looked amazing and the price was very reasonable. I most definitely recommend.“

“My family and I really enjoyed the Tonkotsu ramen. Portion sizes were generous. We tried the Bao Buns appetizer for the first time. The buns were so soft and the chicken was delicious. Price was similar with other Ramen Shops we have tried. Definitely will be coming back.“
