Ramen-san is a bold and energetic neighborhood joint that slings hot noodles, ice-cold beer and rare expressions of Japanese whisky all to the tune of the best ’90s hip-hop in town. It respects the traditions but keep things uniquely untraditional in its yuzu sake bombs, crispy dumplings, spicy kimchi fried ramen and more. The restaurant is open for lunch, dinner and late-night dining seven days a week.

Best Ramen and fried chicken options. I only wish they would have a separate fryer for veggie options and Seafood and not fry all in the same fryer. Since I got shellfish allergy my option is limited to one ramen and steamed dumplings which were delish.

Now this is a great place to go to. Food was fantastic, service was excellent, ambience and value were great. I have nothing negative to say about this place—I totally recommend it (though it’s pretty busy—so would recommend making a reservation if you can).

Tantan-san veggie ramen was delicious and creamy, and not over complicated - mushrooms, tofu, leafy greens, and an optional egg complemented the noodles well. Wish I had time to stay for drinks, too

Everything was great, the only thing is that it is not a quick meal. Took about 45 mins to get our Ramen…apps came out rather quickly though and they kept our drinks full.

We’ve been going here for 5 years . Pre-pandemic & pre-kids , we would come for the happy hour . We loved the food and music. Now with kids we love it even more. We like clip on high chairs, mini chop stick helpers and ramen noodle and broth dishes . They make the meal fun for the kids and less stressful on the parents .

Casual atmosphere with 90s hip hop in the background. Great selection of Japanese whisky. Monthly limited edition ramen which is always unique. Late night fried rice a great night cap.
