I’ve been here about half a dozen times now, and each time I’ve left extremely satisfied. It’s nice to have a good ramen and katsu don place here in Auburn. In fact, I prefer the ramen here compared to what was once my favorite place in Federal Way.
Both their spicy and black tonkotsu ramen are absolutely delicious. They give that first-sip satisfaction that just heals me when the days get colder and more gloomy.
During the warmer months, I’m kind of obsessed with their chilled tofu. The sauce it comes with rotates, so sometimes it’s shoyu based, and other times it’s a sesame dressing with shaved bonito flakes on too. It’s so simple and clean.
Their katsu curry dons are so comforting to me. More than anything, I could probably eat this every day.
Everyone who’s ever served me here has been really nice. I’m not a hugely talkative person, and so for me they strike that right balance between tending to my needs and letting me eat and chill.

Moved here from San Antonio, needed a ramen restaurant to match the one I left and I think we found it here at Isshin Ramen.

Wife and I had a wonderful experience here and can’t wait to come back for more! Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen was wonderful with a mean bite to it. Music choice was also wonderful with Japanese city pop playing in the background. Please support!

AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! This is an adorable restaurant, small cozy 6 tables and some stools. Hostess had us take a seat and was right over to take our order. Spicy tonkatsu, green tonkatsu, and classic. Gyoza, karrage, and steamed pork buns(takes 20 min but an amazing mid meal flavor!) A beer,a coke, and a ginger lemon refresher. Ramen was amazing all the way around spicy where it needs herbal for the green the eggs are soft and gooey, pork was tender soft flavorful. The Gyoza were out of this world delicate and so much subtle flavor. All around this is the best ramen in auburn and the surrounding area they deserve a visit and a rating for those that love traditional ramen! Show up, eat and be happy! Would have added photos but it was too good to wait!

Amazing Ramen! Also had the shrimp tempora and pork buns and everything was delicious. Would highly recommend!
09/18/25 Today I got the classic tonkatsu. It was great. I would def come back here. The pork broth was light but rich, silly smooth and flavorful. The bowl was on the smaller side compared to other places but it was worth it. Next time I'll try the spicy one.
