I work right next to the stop and often stop for my lunch break. The broth is very clean and flavorful and the meat is good quality. The restaurant is small but still comfortable. It's right in the heart of downtown so parking might be a little tough but if you are already in the area it would definitely be worth your time to check out! This restaurant is counter service. They are always super nice and bring your food out fairly quick
Good food and friendly service. Price is reasonable for the area and good value for a bowl of warming ramen. Vegetarian and vegan friendly, which is hard to find sometimes. Tofu ramen was delicious. Piano music was playing, one might've been from Totoro, which is a nice bonus.
The weather has been colder lately and it was raining to boot. What better time for a hot bowl of Ramen?!? We got here around 5pm on a Saturday, and there were a couple of people there eating, but by the time we ordered at the counter, the entry door was "dinging non stop, and just like that, the place was packed. I guess a lot of other people had the same idea lol. We ordered the Hokkaido Ramen which was a tonkotsu based broth and a Cha-shu ramen, which was a rich shoyu based broth. Both bowls of noodles were rich in taste and texture. Noodles were firm in the soup, which is the way I prefer it. I hate soggy noodles. This Ramen shop was pretty spot on, authentic, like the ramen stands in Tokyo. You won't be disappointed here. I'll definitely be back again to try other flavors. Well done House of Ramen!
Went here for a quick dinner before seeing Wicked. Food was great. Portions were a good size. The place was packed so service was a bit slow, but not their fault.
Most delicious options here and believe me when I say I've tried many different ramen spots. This by far is the best
So yummy! This place is a small, local, women owned restaurant with a variety of delicious ramen. I had the Chicken Ramen with level 3 spice. It did have a little kick, but I could've done a level 4. I wanted to try their Thai tea but unfortunately they ran out. That just gives me another reason to come and visit again! The service is super good and nice. Definitely worth giving a try!
A small, clean and very pleasant dining experience from top to bottom. I like trying new things, and I had never seen a curry Ramen so I ordered that got good advice from the clerk on which type of work to include and was presented with a perfectly prepared, tasty bowl of mildly curry Ramen, that fit perfectly with the vegetables, the broth, the noodles and the meat.Highly recommended
Was craving ramen and was recommended to try the House of Ramen. I got the beef ramen and Thai tea which were delicious. The restaurant is small but has seating if you wanted to dine in. The only issue is that I wish they could close a little later than 8pm.
We were hungry. We needed comfort foods. This place came to the rescue. Broth was rich, noodles cooked just right, presentation excellent. Meats? Some on the dry side and others OK. I appreciated them for providing what I needed.
