Tried Ichiddo Ramen and overall had a solid experience. The ramen was good…definitely satisfying, but not the most memorable we’ve had. It wasn’t bland, but it also didn’t have that deep, complex flavor you sometimes look for in a standout bowl. We ordered the crispy chicken ramen, and shrimp fried rice. The crispy chicken added a nice texture, and the portions were generous. The shrimp fried rice was enjoyable and complemented the meal well. We also tried the lychee sake, which was refreshing but lighter than expected, not very strong if you’re looking for something with more kick. All in all, it’s a good option for the area and worth trying if you’re nearby, but if you’re specifically seeking bold, layered ramen flavors, it may not fully hit that mark.

Cashing in on the Ramen "crazy" isn't exactly hard. However, what the title of this establishment lacks in originality, they make up for with service and food quality. Pro: The menu is not just generic, far east staples, and their appetizers, although cliche are made with near perfect levels of seasoning. Good service, clean bathrooms. Cuisine is complimeted by rarely seen at this scale of restaurant exotic non boba drinks although Yes! Boba is present, sake is also dping some heavy lifting with boosting thos score as well. Portion size may not fit personal preferences, but this is both a pro and a con. Cons: After now visiting 5 times instead of my usual order, in-person visit, order, in-person system. I've found myself conflicted by the aesthetics of this location needing to warrant the multiple extra trips. The in-house aesthetics/atmosphere has the over done lets put things of interest around the higher corner of the walls and ceiling. But also, their display montiors of which there seem to be about 5 are almost always muted and showing subtitles on their Japlan location. However, the music is legitimately some slow jam stlye R&B, grey accents in the seating, brightly colored wood furniture. Separately, none of these items are "problematic," so I say all that with the asterisk of you may not care. What I can not and have never forgiven, is having visibly damaged eating utensils and accessories in circulation. Although I only spitred one item having exposed ceramic the fact that its in rotation is one of the only issues. Otherwise, the use of barley a full cup very wide glasses for water and the more basic drinks in place of more vertical cups is legitimately baffling. Yes, they came from Ikea, but the issue is how small the cups utilized for something as basic as water is, 2 small gulps and your done. Portion size may not fit personal preferences, but this is both a pro and a con. This restaurant staff has well trained servers, definitely peaceful even at busy times. Good food and some actual effort put into the drinks menu. You can't go wrong if you want quiet time or just something non traditional that won't break the bank. If the biggest problem I can muster is the buildings aesthetics and maybe the lack of soy sauce being readily available on the table is an issue, then you should feel no issues with going here for your next meal. Easily a 3.5 out of 5.

GRATUITY IS ALREADY INCLUDED ON THE BILL! Second time getting food from this restaurant. First time ordered for delivery and this last time was dine in. The atmosphere is nice, cozy and the service was great! (Staff was very attentive) The food was delicious and portions were good. The only thing i didnt like was that gratuity was automatically added to the bill, but it still has the boxes in the bottom to add the tip. I had ordered alot of food, as i was treating myself after a long day at work, so when I got my check I figured it was going to be an expensive meal. Yes, reading is fundamental and if I would have read my receipt completely before signing and filling it, I would have noticed that the gratuity was already added, instead I ended up double tipping and not noticing till later when i was checking my receipt again. Maybe it stated before hand on the menu that they charge an 18% gratuity automatically and i missed it? But other than that, like i mentioned the food was good. Ended up spending $48.48 with the double tip.

Went here with a friend and everything was delicious! We enjoyed all the food we tried. The appetizers are reasonably priced, not overpriced like other places. The strawberry mixed sake was so refreshing, the ramen is delicious and the takoyaki was really good. Overall, everything here was really good and worth coming back for.

Cute spacious restaurant. The service was quick and pleasant. I ordered the short rib as an appetizer. The flavor was there but the meat was tough. My daughter throughly enjoyed her ramen. I forget which one she had but you add or dip the noodles into the ramen. If you don't eat pork make sure to ask which broth is not pork based because many of their selections are pork. I had the red curry ramen with the meat removed and shrimp and egg added. Unfortunately it was not spicy enough for me and the ramen needed salt.
