The vibe of this place is really unique and I’m glad they stuck with the more authentic seating arrangement of having a bar where you watch them make your food—which provides some light entertainment while you wait. The staff was nice and consistently checked to make sure everything was good or to refill the water. The food itself was just amazing, the pork fried rice wasn’t too greasy but managed to stay filled with flavor and the edamame was perfectly salted. The ramen was great, I had the miso ramen which had a flavorful, salty broth. The pork was cooked excellently and the combination and quantity of toppings were satisfactory. They also have a great lunch special.

It was delicious! A cozy place but a bit tight, not a place to stay for long. I tried the spicy naruto ramen, it’s not like a typical japanese thick broth, it’s clear and fresh. Def will go back another time:)

Tokyo bar style Ramen restaurant- sit right at the counter, quick and easy service for a delicious Ramen with a beer. The simple menu eliminates debating what to order- despite all options looking great! Will certainly be back!

Curry ramen is very delicious but don’t order if you’re wearing a white shirt :) Prices are solid and great value. Ramen comes out within 10min. You can’t go wrong with the basic Naruto ramen. They do have vegetarian ramen here. First come first serve, your entire party has to be there to be seated. There’s a clipboard paper for you to write your name and party size on. Was very busy at 8pm Friday but not a long wait, empty around 9:30pm.

FANTASTIC ramen at a super affordable price! (Around 15 each) and the portions were huge. I got the tan tan, boyfriend got one that has a vinegary egg broth in it (we forget the name but it started with an S) and he loved it. My tan tan was perfection. The noodles were so bouncy and fresh, perfectly al dente. The food came out in literally 10 minutes too!! My ramen was comparable to some that I’ve had in Japan. The broth was insanely rich and flavorful and we are definitely coming back!!

Got in at 12:30! Lots of people but luckily got in instantly because 3 people left at the same Time. Server was a cool dude, polite, and very efficient. The resto is basically a bar that’s kitchen side where you can watch them cook everything. So it’s very clean. The karaage was super soft and moist on the inside with a really flavorful taste and mouthwatering umami. The crisp texture of the breading was golden brown and perfectly thick. The house ramen was very delicious. Broth was perfectly salted, the amount of noodles and chashu was on point, and it was very tender. Loved that I didn’t have to pay extra for the egg. My only knock is that it was a bit of a squeeze since it was a smaller restaurant!

My fiance and I had dinner at Naruto ramen. The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. Even though the location is small, it is always crowded. You can see the chef making your food. This is my third time coming to this restaurant; it is very good. You won't regret it.

Absolutely amazing!! Me and my family have been searching for a ramen place that tastes like what we had in Japan. And when I tell you this ramen tastes exactly like what I used to order in Okinawa. I mean it tastes exactly the same down to the T. It’s definitely worth the wait and I would recommend. I wish we weren’t from out of town. I would be coming back LITTERALY every day. :)
