AGU Ramen - Ward Centre

Great place for decent authentic ramen. Price is ok for the quality but not the portion. Service was great. One of the few places on the island where you can get good spicy noodles. Expect waiting in line during lunch and dinner hours.

Walked right in on a Saturday night at 530. My wife and I had the agucinni as an appetizer. They were crispy and tasty. For dinner we had the Hakata Ramen and the Spicy Kotteri with parmesan. Everything was excellent. Service was good, everything came out within about 10 mins of ordering. That atmosphere was enjoyable as well. I will definitely be back and intend to bring visitors as well!!!

Great ramen. I tried the rafune ramen with two big pork belly of heaven. Noodles are great quality too. Broth is amazing! The only bad side is the price.$22 for ramen is something really pricey. If there's an option to only have a single pork belly for cheaper may be a better option.

The 2nd Agu I've been to and it still didn't disappoint. I recommend the shishito peppers and the spicy tonkotsu. I usually like spicy food, but be forewarned, level 4 starts to get pretty spicy. My only complaint is that the restroom is in the mall and not the restaurant, but it's not that far.

If you are looking for Ramen, come here!! Look no further! Been to Okinawa twice for deployment and this is literally as close as it comes stateside. I don't dont even eat pork and this place actually made me enjoy it! I will see be a regular!

Loved the ramen here, very nice flavorful broth, noodles had good texture and chew to them, marinated egg was extra delicious!

Agu has some of the best Ramen on the island in my opinion.

The wait is really long sometimes and there isn't that much seating. I think they're a little understaffed. While waiting, there were times with tables left uncleared. We also had to wait a good five minutes to see anyone to flag down for refills on water. However, despite those minor qualms, the ramen is great. The broth is rich and flavorful. The noodles are the perfect firmness. Also, try their cheek-a-bu croquettes. The only disappointing this is that they don't take reservations. So plan on waiting.

My kids love Kid City and this is the lunch or dinner spot we go to every time afterwards. Their ramen is so very flavorful and unique because instead of pork, their broth is beef-based. I love the Seabura ramen which is so rich and flavorful, but it can be a bit too fatty for some so they might like the beefy wild better. There is usually a long wait to get it but it's really worth it. Service is good and the food comes out relatively quickly which is a plus because you would likely be starving by the time you actually get in. It is very busy and can get quite loud but I do have small kids so it works ok for us, can't complain. I really like their beef deep fried gyoza too and the beefy sisig (it's actually a Filipino dish served on a hot plate) but it can get really rich pretty fast so bring your cholesterol medicine.lol overall, we always enjoy the food and we always come back. Definitely a must-try. P.S. they did open a new(er) hot pot place with the same name, pretty much like shabu but with their signature broths which was also very good!

My friend and I were Yelping our way through dinner options after some time apart (gotta love the 30s scheduling struggle). A little scrolling plus stomach logic reminded me I'd been here before and liked it - case closed. Reservations are an option, but we walked in and got seated right away: no wait, no fuss, just pure ramen-tic vibes between me and the noodles. Location: Facing Auahi St, right next to Mian & Bao and across from the Anaha building. Parking: Not the restaurant's fault, but the lot behind it is narrow, low, and unforgiving (free, at least!). My compact car had to suck in its mechanical guts just to squeeze into a stall. Lifted trucks? You'll need divine intervention and some serious real-life Tetris skills. Safe to say the designer missed the Hawaii = Tacoma country memo. Atmosphere: Retro, eclectic izakaya vibes with a slightly off-script design. Tight quarters, lively energy, and a playlist that sounded like my Spotify on shuffle. Food: My friend tried the Beefy Seabura, I went with the Beefy Wild. The broth? Incredible - milky, rich, and soul-warming. The beef? Basically a jaw workout - impossible to chew through, and my friend had the same issue. In hindsight, I should've flagged it to the staff, but I was too busy enjoying the other 70-80% of the bowl. Drinks: Just water for us since ramen was the star. Beyond the usual soft drinks and booze, the cocktail list had a quirky twist - each one named after a Japanese city pop track. Service: Our waiter was attentive and on point - no complaints here. Price: Around $15 for my ramen - reasonable, though tough to swallow (literally) when the beef wasn't. Would I return? Tentatively yes. If the beef pulls the same stunt again, I'll be sticking to safer picks.

Came here after receiving notifications about this place as being a place of interest . Unfortunately I was disappointed in the food . First of all got to or table and cushion that had to sit on was ridiculously torn and worn (see photo) It looked so bad I didn't want to sit on it but we had 5 on a 4 seater table and not much room . The restaurant was not busy at first but got busy as we started out meal . I ordered the Beef Ramen and must say the presentation was small and not anything special , the broth was very white creamy and not much beef broth flavor . The beef that was in my ramen was hard and rubbery not fall apart type like other Japanese ramen places . . We also order the miso ramen the small portion and have to say IT WAS SMALL more like kids size. The taste was mild and not rich tasting at all like other places like Tanto Ramen and gyoza . Also order the fried rice which was very delicious !!!! And the best part of our meal . Also ordered Beef wild Ramen which was okay but just ok again the beef was not soft at all . Also ordered the gyoza and I have to say it was the worst gyoza I've had it's was deep fried as stated on the menu but the wrapper was thin with tough and slight crunch texture Not Like the ones I've had in Japan , the filling had a lot of meat but no taste and hard . Also the dipping sauce was just a bottle of soy sauce and a bottle of vinegar left at the table . . We ordered the fried chicken which was tender and juicy but had crunch to it at all . In closing I just recommend ordering the beef fried rice as take out and that's it . In ending although we were felt rushed I must say service was excellent !!!!! Our waitress was awesome and super nice !!!

Convenient location in Ward Center, very nice servers, fun and casual ambiance. Cheap and fun cocktails, so I could see this as a fun option for a little outing with friends! The yuzu cocktail was only $6 and very yummy. The house-made kimchi was a standout for our group, which came with a hefty portion of the flavorful side. The gyoza was also well seasoned and well-packed with filling, although the skin was a bit tough and lackluster. I appreciated the light batter on the fried squid. The flavors were all good, while the squid itself had a lot of chew. I liked it but would definitely consider it tough. I quite liked the tsukemen! The broth was great. Super flavorful, a bit smoky? Not overly oil, but still rich. The noodles were good as well. However, the piece of meat on the tsukemen was really dry and flavorless. Honestly, the dish would be better without it. My group also tried the Seabura ramen. If you like a very rich, almost cheesy ramen broth, this is for you. Not my cup of tea, but it was well done.

Easily one of my my most favorite places to eat when I'm crazing something that will feel like a warm hug. The ramen here is so good, this is a repeat spot for my friends and me. There can be a wait, so take advantage of Yelp Reservations and make them a day ahead for your dining ease. If not, there is a clipboard outside for you to sign in. The list moves pretty quickly and there are seats outside to wait if it's totally full inside. As soon as you are seated, the staff is quick to give you water and a menu, but if you had to wait, there is a courtesy menu outside so you are ready. Since I go here all the time, I do often start with with the Gyoza Sui (which can only be eaten dine-in, so sorry for those who rely on takeaway). Honestly, it's been hit or miss with this one. It's full of flavor, but sometimes it just tastes better than others, so just get it every time . As for my meal, I always go for the yuzu ramen which is a little lighter than the usual ramen flavors you may be used to. Even with the lighter broth, the ramen is very filling and very satisfying. On this particular visit, I went with a friend who has the tsukemen that he polished off. He described the broth to be very creamy and the spice was perfect. If ramen isn't for you, the menu is quite vast and there will surely be something to your liking. The location is convenient to the Ward area and offers free parking behind the restaurant or even across the street near Whole Foods. And if you love the place, you can even get some merch!

Seriously my fav ramen place on island. Location is really small but wait time is never forever. They get you seated fast. The boiled gyoza and fried gyoza are both great options it's always hard to decide on which one. The fries is our go to while we wait. The cocktail drinks are super delish. I always end up with any of the spicy ramen bowls that they have available. Menu items change sometimes.

After a busy morning shopping at Ward we decided to stop by Kamitoku for a lunch break. There was no wait at 11:30 on a weekday and we were immediately seated in the small, cozy restaurant. Service is friendly and attentive, the workers were kind enough to let us store our baby stroller in the back while we ate. The lunch special combos are a great deal and come with your choice of ramen and appetizer. The Seabura ramen was creamy and filling featuring big chunks of fatty meat, an egg, and thick noodles. We tried the Chasiu Bowl and the Beef Sui Gyoza appetizers and both were delicious! It started to get busy as we were leaving so try to make reservations if you're stopping by on a weekend as the restaurant is pretty small!

This is one of my top go-to places for ramen. The ramen is so tasty! The specialize in beef broths and my favorite is the seabura. That one has these little chunks of beef fat that just melt in your mouth. The ramen here are pretty rich and heavy - great if you want something hearty but might not be good if you want something lighter. The appetizers generally taste okay - not the best I've had. But they do have a wide selection in case you're not feeling ramen. The location is super convenient at Ward and there's lots of parking in their structure. When you get there, there's a clipboard right outside where you can add yourself to the waitlist.

My nephew recommend this place for lunch. I ordered the seabura ramen and my spouse had the beefy wild beast ramen. I found both of the broths good. I did prefer the creaminess of the beefy wild beast broth to mines. The noodles and beef were cooked perfectly. The broth had a nice fatty taste. I also ordered the boiled gyoza and my spouse the spicy gyoza. Of the two the boiled gyoza was more flavorful. The spicy gyoza relied too much on the sauce for taste. The serving size is not large, but very filling due to the heaviness of the broth.

I really wish I found my photo from the previous time I ate here. I went with a friend and we were craving ramen like crazy. Quick entry which was nice since there was an open table. I got the beefy wild and she got another beef noodle. When I tell you the beef was so tough we couldn't even bite through it, I wish it was an exaggeration. We were doing all we could to even get a piece. The broth was so creamy and a little too oily rich for my liking. I did expect that though considering it was marketed that way. I was just so disappointed about the ramen. Not sure if I will be coming back anytime soon.

Our family decided to take Grandma out on a field trip to get lunch. She loves ramen so we stopped here to get her ramen fix. The restaurant is quite small and a little hard to navigate through for someone like grandma, who uses a walker. We looked through the menu and everything sounded so good. We ordered with our stomach because we ended up taking home lots of left overs! Overall we enjoyed our food, but the ramen was a little too salty for my taste. My mom said that the tsukemen dipping sauce got cold quickly and wish it was hotter. Would eat here again if I was in the area.

Been meaning to try this place out since trying and loving their hotpot restaurant. Its a different vibe in here, tightly packed and busy. My s/o and I are pretty small so the little table stalls didn't bother us but any larger person might want to wait for one of the normal size tables to open up. Could be a bit of an issue around the dinner rush as it was getting busy, and a queue was forming outside. Service was fine, no complaints. I got the tsukemen, which is the dipping ramen with a concentrated soup base. I can't remember the name of the dish my gf got, but it had the beefy marina broth. We also got a ginger tofu and spicy menma since we wanted something a little fresh to go with that super rich beef broth. As expected, the broth was sooo flavorful and rich. Borderline too salty--even for tsukemen, but I shook off a bit of the sauce and still enjoyed it greatly. The charsiu and bits of meat in the broth were also insanely tender and tasty. It did take a bit to get our ramen and by then we had finished our tofu and most of our menma, which may have helped cut that richness a bit. I do really think I would have enjoyed it a bit more with some extra veg--that could be why I still prefer the hotpot slightly more. The portions werent huge either, especially the appetizers, and I ended up getting an extra half-serving of noodles to finish up my meal. The total before tip was $49 for two ramens and two appetizers, which isnt the worst.

Ramen and tsukemen noodles were great. The tsukemen dashi was OK. It had a very strong meaty flavor rather than a thicker and richer taste that im used to. Other side dishes were good. Overall good. Service is great!

3.5 stars for above average ramen - get the beefy ramen! While the ramen here is decent, some dishes fell short. The lite shoyu and agedashi tofu were quite bland (though the kids enjoyed them), and the portion sizes felt a bit small. The gyoza and other meats were notably fatty and greasy, which detracted from their flavor. The miso ramen was pretty standard, but the Beefy Wild was definitely the highlight of the meal.

they changed up their menu and added a couple of new things that sound super interesting but i haven't tried them yet. i usually always get the seabura - it's super creamy. recently, i started getting the beefy wild - it's also creamy but less creamy than the seabura, super rich flavor, so yummy, but the beef is quite dry. the beef gyoza namban is good, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. the sauce is my favorite - sweet vinegar shoyu and tartar sauce. i come here a lot, sometimes it's super hot inside and sometimes it's super cold so i never know how to dress super convenient place to eat, plenty parking (though the stalls are really tight), wait lines are not too bad (if it's long, the turnover is pretty quick), servers are nice!

Kamitoku used to be our favorite ramen shop on island, but we went for dinner last weekend after having not been there for over a year and it was not the same as we remembered. The portions seemed a lot smaller than before, and our favorite thing used to be the super tender meat in the ramen but it was a lot tougher this time. I still thought the ramen was overall good and I still prefer it over some other ramen shops but we were a little disappointed. However, we made a reservation for our large party and were seated right away even though we arrived early and the staff was very attentive!

Service very good. Ambiance ok. Only knock here is the stools and booths are uncomfortable but the food more than makes up for it. We had a variety of dishes, several of which I've never had. This was an adventure in eating! The broth in the ramen was so flavorful. Half egg perfectly cooked and beef so tasty. Appetizer (see photo) of a sizzling platter of pieces of beef with a raw egg in the middle. U mix it as you take bites. Flavors were amazing! Also a breaded chicken appetizer was good. Each dish had seasoning the was an A+. Love this place! A real find

Food was delicious but a bit overwhelming with the beefy taste. The broth of the Seabura was delicious at first but as you eat more it become to rich a for my taste buds. Service was excellent, our waiter was new but did a fantastic job on answering our questions. Love the atmosphere and cozy place.

I wanted to like this place since I enjoy ramen but I wasn't too impressed. I had the Regular Wild ramen and an order of Beef spicy gyoza. The ramen was milky tonkotsu ramen, but I didn't feel it had enough flavor in the broth. The gyoza, while nice, was covered in spicy mayo sauce and other toppings. I guess I'm a purist and just like my gyoza to stand on it's own. Plain with shoyu and rayu.

Still waiting on a location closer to home lol. My family and I love this place and always enjoy the food and service. The staff are always so friendly and attentive no matter how busy they are. Food is consistently amazing and prices are reasonable. If you haven't stopped by yet you are totally missing out!

My friends have been raving about this place for a while so I finally decided to try it out and it was definitely with the hype. I had the Seabura one and it was really rich and flavorful. On top of a slice of beef, the broth also has chunks of beef fat in it. Definitely want to come back to try their other dishes!

Favorite Ramen Spot every time my Ultimate Comfort Food! Kamitoku Ramen in Kaka'ako is a hidden gem and my go-to for a comforting, flavorful meal. Their beefy wild ramen is rich, silky creme hearty, broth absolutely hits the spot--perfect for when you're craving something warm and satisfying. The boiled dumplings with chili oil add just the right kick, and the kimchi is fresh, tangy, and the perfect side. The space is small and cozy, making it feel like a true ramen joint experience. If you're looking for top-tier beef ramen and amazing flavors, this is the place to be!

I have went to this place twice. The stuff stuff I have to say about this spot is just French kiss. From the broth, to the ramen, to the sides of the dishes. The chef and the people that works here really put there passion not just into there food they serve but also the way they represent the restaurant is phenomenal. The wait could take long a little bit because there busy and the area it's a bit small but it's worth the wait. There is also free customer parking in the mall at the back. I really recommend this place if you want to try something different

Ramen Heaven.... Gloomy weather calls for ramen! We wanted to try a new place and remembered this place in Ward! Reasonable prices for high quality food. Hip, trendy place with limited seating. Two seater tables sit very closely to surrounding tables so you can hear other's conversations. Service was upbeat and friendly. Food: +Beef Gyoza Namban ($8.5) +Takoyaki ($10.25) +Beefy Wild Ramen ($16) +Tsukemen ($17) I thoroughly enjoyed each of the appetizers and ramen! They were so delicious! I've never had this type of creamy ramen before. No dairy which is better for my stomach. They emulsify the broth to get it creamy. Full of flavor! The Gyoza had a nice crunch and the nanban sauce complemented the richness of the beef filling. Takoyaki did not disappoint! **2nd Time Visit: +Beefy King ($29.95) - this was a massive portion of ramen! Loaded with veggies and meats. We were able to finish this between 2 people, but our server says usually most people can't finish it. He told us we were the 2nd to ever finish the bowl in a sitting haha! What a great deal and you'll leave stuffed! They do have lunch specials that I hope to come back for. Enjoy!

Lokking forward to eating at Kamitoku Ramen again. They remodeled. It's hipper and more modern/trendy. My wife and I wanted to split something as we were trying to get to the North Shore. Beefy Marina: Marina's twist on the original beef bone broth & the current light shoyu (4/5). Very flavorful but light. My wife and I drank every bit of the soup. I am so happy that this place is still around. We wish you continued success! Come support this local business!

I am still dreaming of this ramen! Will definitely be back during my next visit to Oahu. The broth was so flavorful and our whole party loved their meals. Service was quick and also made great recommendations. Loved the inside of the restaurant and their merch is hilarious

Great service! Friendly waiters! Delicious ramen! Just the perfect amount so I slurped up all the broth as well!

Craving bold, rich umami flavor? Kamitoku Ramen is your spot! Known for our signature beef-based ramen, they are dedicated to crafting every bowl from scratch as much as possible, ensuring the freshest, most authentic taste. Whether you're in for a quick lunch or a chill happy hour, our rich broths and savory goodness are ready to elevate your ramen experience. The atmosphere is a trendy but cozy Japanese "J-Pop" feel... the staff is true Japanese service. Polite and quick to help. The prefecture they are from is well know for their beef broths... so if you love a rich beefy broth, this is the spot... my favorite was the tsukemen. And you can't beat their drink specials during happy hour, they have some fun cocktails , Pro tip: might be a great place to stop by before hitting the movie theaters next door .

If you're in the mood for tasty ramen that won't leave you in a food coma, Kamitoku's got you covered with their current lunch deal: get a steaming bowl of their Beefy Marina (Original Light Shoyu) Ramen for just $10! It's a light yet satisfying option, perfect for midday cravings when you want something delicious but not too filling. While I'm usually all about their Beefy Wild (seriously, it's amazing!), the Light Shoyu made for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, their unique char siu continues to WOW--it's tender, flavorful, and unlike any I've had before! Kamitoku keeps bringing the flavor, and I'll definitely be back for more lunch deals like this one.

Service was a little slow today, but the food delivered per usual. Kamitoku is one of my favorite ramen spots with their creamy beef broth. I've learned over time that my flavor palette is attracted to the creamy, savory broths over the lighter broths - even ones I'd experienced at some of the highest rated ramen shops in Tokyo. No disrespect to them, but just a personal preference. I tend to switch between three choices: the beefy wild, seabura (Seh-ah-boo-rla), and if we're feeling extra hungry, we'll share the beefy king bowl. Recently, I've felt like the servings have gotten smaller. Sometimes I crave just a little bit more noodles because I devoure them all in 4-5 bites - or so it seems. The good thing is, that empty space in my stomach is filled with some of the best broth in town and I walk out with JUST enough to feel satisfied. I recommend this place to any and all ramen lovers. Just be prepared to wait a bit to get seated, put your orders in, and actually get your food. Come before you're actually starving so you don't get hangry and finish your bowl for the special message at the bottom of the bowl!

A small and cozy ramen shop in Ward. Came here on a weekday for quick lunch with coworkers. I had the small beef tan tan. The beef soup was delicious. It was spicer than I expected but not too spicy. Love that there's a small option! Looked small at first but was the perfect portion for us. Service was fast and friendly.

We had a fantastic time at Kamitoku Ramen with a group of 10. I managed to get a same-day reservation by calling ahead; the staff was honest about not making any promises but did a great job accommodating us all together, despite my willingness to split tables. The 18% gratuity added for our large group was expected, but it didn't dampen our experience. Most of us ordered the Beefy Wild, which remains my favourite ramen. For some of our friends who were trying Kamitoku Ramen for the first time, it quickly became a new favourite. Three people from our group went for the Beefy King, which was enormous--loaded with noodles, meat, chicken karaage, and bean sprouts. This dish is definitely meant for sharing and could easily feed 2-3 people. Unfortunately, halfway through my husband's Beefy King, he found a metal piece from what seemed to be a scrubber pad in his ramen. We flagged it to the waitress, who promptly gave him a free drink, which was a nice gesture, though we were mainly concerned about the cleanliness of the kitchen. Thankfully, my husband was mixing his noodles, so he avoided eating it. Service was solid; we waited around 8-10 minutes for our food, which was well worth it. Everything was delicious, and despite the minor mishap, I would definitely come back to Kamitoku Ramen.

Kamitoku Ramen's broths are jam packed with flavor and have perfect level of spice! I enjoyed the spicy tsukemen and sui gyoza lunch combo. The beef served with the tsukemen was so tender and I loved how thick and al dente the noodles were. If you are a yuzu fan, the sui gyoza is a must! This small and cozy shop has such fun and vibrant decor and music creating a lively atmosphere. Even though the spicy tsukemen is not on the lunch menu, they still made mine spicy. The service was wonderful and there was no wait when I visited. I can't wait to try their tan tan!

This was my first time trying Kamitoku even though I'm always in the area. It's a pretty small restaurant, so luckily I made reservations through Open Table. Even on a Monday night, it was still crowded and there were parties waiting for a table. I got the small portion of the beefy wild. The small portion was really small, but the broth was very rich and flavorful. My friend and I shared an order of gyoza since we were still hungry after ramen. The waiters here were friendly and helpful.

Wow! My first time trying gyukotsu (beef bone broth) ramen at Kamitoku was a great experience. They've been serving gyukotsu ramen since 1949, and apparently it's still very popular at their OG location in Japan. Beefy Wild Ramen: super tender beef! The beef bones are pressure-cooked, resulting in a creamy umami broth. It's lighter than pork bone broth, which I appreciate Beefy Yuzu Ramen: slightly sweeter than expected but still delicious. I wanted something light and refreshing and this hit the spot Overall a solid 4/5 because the noodles were kind of basic and I prefer more jammy ramen eggs, but everything else was great. I would come back!

One of our favorites places to get ramen!!! So authentic and service is amazing! Our server, Tiffany, was super helpful - our kids accidentally dropped the water cups twice and she was super sweet about it! She cleaned up the water mess and even shared how she's used to the kids coming in from Kid City indoor playground and that kids make mistakes - she totally made me feel comfortable about the whole situation (I felt badly about it!). Our other server, Sean, was also nice and honest. I asked his opinion about ordering one kids meal (small ramen with choice of topping like corn that comes with two pieces of chicken and a toy!) would be enough for two small kids (5yo and 3yo), and he said it would be enough and it certainly was the perfect amount for my kids! It also came with two small toys, which my kids were thankful for! Not only is the service amazing, the restaurant is clean and the food is amazing!! Kids loved their ramen! I got the agedashi tofu (it was rich!), and enjoyed it a lot! Shoutout to Tiffany for being so kind!

What do you do when you're done watching Ballerina at Ward Theater? You walk down to this restaurant for a tasty bowl of Ramen to end your Sunday evening, of course! Trendy atmosphere with a hip and nostalgic vibe of Japan. We were seated at a high table with barstools situated in the center of the place. Waters came and refilled timely. Server was friendly and our food came fairly quickly considering we had a large group. I wish I had ordered the regular size of their signature bowl of Beefy Wild Ramen instead of the small. But, it hit the spot, not too heavy with a creamy broth just rich enough to enhance the tenderness and taste of the beef. Garlic chips added just the right amount of balance to offset the simmering goodness. It was really delicious. If you're looking to satisfy your Ramen craving, I'd highly recommend this place.

Out of all the Japanese Ramen I've tried, this place has been one of the most unique experiences. I absolutely love the beef broth, and you can immediately taste the difference from other restaurants. At first, when the bowl came out, it looked like a small serving, but once you started eating, it was good enough for one adult. I also tried the okonomiyaki and the Fried gyoza and everything was good. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting. It is worth it! I would also recommend making a reservation as there was a long line of people waiting outside.

My new favorite Ramen restaurant. Having driven or walked by this many times, I am glad that I stopped in. Having eaten here twice, the service is always friendly and water refills are plentiful. The temperature is a bit on the cool side, so bring a light jacket if you easily get cold. Of course the Ramen will warm you up! The ramen is very creamy and flavorful. My personal favorite is the Beefy King, which is enough for two people to share or one really hungry big guy. It was loaded with lots of meat and veggies. Seating is accomplished via a small center section bar with high tops for about a dozen people, with the rest in two seater tables arranged along the two walls.

This ramen shop in Ward specializes in beef based ramen. Got takeout from here, service was super fast and friendly. The takeout container was neat, kept the noodles and soup separate. I ordered tsukemen (dipping noodles) and was blown away at how flavorful the dipping broth was (beefy, garlicky, umami). The noodles were also perfectly cooked. There was a large chunk of beef with a little bit of fat (yum), some bamboo shoots, and half a marinated egg. My husband tried the yuzu ramen and wasn't impressed. But I'll def be back for the tsukemen!!

A lot of my friends always raved to me about the beefy wild bowl, and now I get it. We went on a weekday night and only had to wait a few minutes after writing our names down to be seated. It really is supremely decadent and flavorful, but I actually ended up enjoying the tsukemen more, with perfectly cooked noodles. The dumplings with yuzu were quite refreshing too, and the takoyaki hot and satisfying. The only thing is the portions could have been bigger, but maybe we were just extra hungry that day. Definitely interested to come back to try their lunch specials and others like sisig and fried dumplings!

My go-to ramen place. Tsukamen, Seabura, Light Shoyu are just a few of my favorites. You can't go wrong. Make a reso if can as there may be a wait sometimes. They do have bar stool seating for smaller parties

This is easily my go to neighborhood ramen spot. It's such a unique spin on traditional flavors (beef instead of pork based broth). It still has genuine ramen flavor just with a twist. I also love the vibe of this place. Fun Japanese pop art, bright colors, neon lights. And the staff is awesome!!! All so nice and helpful with decision paralysis (because everything is so yummy). Fun fact: I went to the Ginza, Tokyo kamitoku and that was a fun experience!

In Ward by Maile's Thai, Kamitoku Ramen is a relatively small ramen spot. There was a wait when we got there but it went by pretty quick. The tables can feel a bit close together and the restaurant a bit dim but it was altogether a clean and quick experience. The service was efficient and our servers were kind. I got the shoyu ramen, which was really good and flavorful! It was also a good portion. Next time, I hope to try a different ramen from their options!

felt discriminated against, me and my fiance were standing outside of the restaurant checked in for over 10 minutes, another (different race)couple comes up and gets checked in immediately by a blonde male looking to be in their 20's and completely ignores us, ive tried the food here before so i thought it would be a nice place to go again, but i was wrong

My family loved it. I had the beefy wild and it was so amazingly rich. I felt silly asking for a take out container to take the broth home but I was glad I did, incredible with some rice later, it is like pure beef butter. The ramen here is a nice change of pace from the usual tonkotsu we get. Cute interior, friendly service.

There's a bit of a wait but easy to get parking in the ward area. We got fried garlic, and it's exactly what we expected, very garlicky. Also, I got the tsukamen and my partner got the beefy wild. Both were very good but I really enjoyed the tsukamen. The noodles were slightly thicker and nice and chewy. The broths were both good and very hearty. Service was good and our server was constantly checking on us and getting us water. The inside had tables and a bar seating. The walls were covered with cool art and they also had shirts and other merchandise you could purchase.

Located outside ward area, this place is pretty good. The gyoza is good size and the sauce for it is excellent. The portions of the ramen. It's pretty good as well. And the beef has a smoky flavor which tastes excellent. The place was busy, but yet our food came out quickly. I suggest you try it one time and see how you like it. It was worth it to me. Prices are reasonable as well.I look forward to coming back again

We were over by Ala Moana, and instead of eating at the food court, we decided to drive a few minutes away to Ward Center: We were glad we did. We started off with the fried ika app. The squid was fresh, tender and nicely battered. It was a good way to whet your appetite. Kamitoku's sig item is a beef ramen. I never stray from my tonkotsu broth w/ chasu, but this time I decided to go with the flow. I was very impressed! The broth was rich from cooking over several hours, and the one piece of beef made me full. I usually eat six pieces of chasu to get full. Our waiter, Jeremiah was a super nice guy and full of aloha. The ambiance is tight casual. We went off hours so it was not that busy. Ward Center is a nice alternative to the hustle & bustle of Ala Moana. The Center has a Nordstrom Rack, where I shop often.
