Karami Ramen

First time here and I couldn't have picked a more perfect place. Karami Ramen absolutely nailed it with this bowl-rich, flavorful broth, tender chashu, and perfectly balanced toppings made every bite unforgettable. It was a delicious and satisfying meal that hit every craving just right. I highly recommend it.

Cute spot with amazing food. I had the vegan special and it was fantastic. My friends got the Karami Special and gave it a solid 9/10. Definitely worth checking out!

I tried the small portion of their miso tonkotsu ramen, gyoza, and their chicken chahan. The ramen soup was good but the noodles look like the noodles from instant ramen and the chicken chahan was salty so I was kinda disappointed. Their gyoza was ok... Atmosphere wise you feel like you're in Japan. Food was also pricey. I'm giving this place 3 stars

Great experience here. Their ramen bowls are big and the noodles have a nice chewy consistency to them! I think the Karaage can be a little less fried/breaded but still really good. The environment here is smaller and resembled a more authentic Japanese experience. It has a bar area and small tables with small seats. Everything just adds to the authenticity.

Great place and one of the most delicious ramen I've ever had!🍜 Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff. 😊 Nice background music, too. 🎶 #Ramen #Restaurant #Food #Music #Dinner

Ramen was fantastic and served quickly and hot. Some Ramen houses serve it lukewarm. I loved how warm it was. It's a modest yet very cozy setting. Decor is uniquely Japanese. Will definitely come back.

I always enjoy some ramen in this small ramen shop. The price certainly raises since Covid but food was still good and worth once awhile. Order their ramen and fried chicken are always a good idea.

First time visiting for dinner and it was a great experience. The restaurant gave off authentic traditional Japanese culture. It’s a small space with booths. Service from staff is good. Very attentive and friendly. There is also a button to click when you need service. As for the food, I had the Karami Signature and the Curry Shoyu. Each dish was delicious and I was wanting more but the Karami Signature was my favorite! I definitely recommend if you’re looking for a quick bite of ramen.

This place was delicious!! Its in a shopping center mall in the corner tucked away. The place is very small, only seats about 15-20 people. We came on a Friday night around 7pm and seated easily. It wasn't very busy compared to all the other very well known ramen places around here but honestly it is just as good. We got their signature ramen which had delicious broth with a small hint of spice. I loved all the veggies in it as well. They also had combos you could add like a karaage don bowl which was so good. Definitely worth going to check out!!

Karami ramen is unassuming from the outside plaza but once you step in you're transported to the coziest Japanese interior with art, wooden booths, and plus cute menu features on the wall- That's how you know it's legit. It's intimate and simply run by the staff but very welcoming. House special ramen: 9/10. Super good, with the perfect kick of spice that melds perfectly with a robust broth flavor. The broth doesn't taste overly thick or fatty, and the notes are perfectly balanced. The meat is tender and pulls apart. I appreciate the toppings already included. My friend ordered the spicy Thai chili ramen it was blown away after tasting mine. The broth for the other bowl was respectably spicy hot and tangy. If you like a semi vintage japanese city vibe (like theusic they softly play) and genuine homey tasting ramen, this place would be perfect for you. Not to mention they have awards for best ramen from the past couple years framed on the wall.

A nice little ramen spot! Loved the lunch combo deal. A half sized ramen and an option from some apps. We tried almost all the broths and loved all of them but the classic chicken paitan was my favorite. The gyoza was ok and I'd pass in the future. The karage was super good though. Perfect crispy fry and juicy inside. The chicken cutlet was also good but I'd go karage over cutlet!

I've never eaten anything like this! It's so simple but jam packed with flavor. The interior reminded me of Japanese night market. It is a cozy restaurant. The service was very amazing and fast! I recommend coming here to try their ramen and takoyaki.

This is my BF's favorite Ramen spot. It's reminiscent of a cute spot we visited in Tokyo. It's a small place so there can be lines at times; when they just open; before they close, and on a rainy day! It's a laid back, cute date option. They close in the afternoon and open again at 5pm! This has caught us out on several days we craved them and the timing was off! I think they are closed Monday too! BF always gets their house Ramen and a cold beer and I love their Chasu Don. Sometimes I get it with extra egg, sometimes we order the ramen with chasu Don combo and I have the small portion which is plenty big and good value. Photo shows the entree size. To go orders are presented well and have never disappointed us.

I loved the vibes of this restaurant. It was a fun place to hang out with friends. I'm not from San Diego, but for SoCal I was expecting really good Asian Food. The ramen was alright, flavorful, a little salty for my taste, but I did not find it memorable. The service was attentive, but also unmemorable.

This place is adorable My vegan ramen was to die for. Staff was very friendly! Really enjoyed the atmosphere.

The food is more of a 4 stars, but overall experience is a 5. I tried the truffle ramen and its crochets or whatever the spelling is. Had a beer as well which came with a cooled glass which is always awesome. The environment and atmosphere is very Japan like. Reminds me of Kyoto in Japan. Very cool stuff. Staff is very kind and accommodating just like in Japan too! Really love it. The ramen was great. The noodles aren't made in house which is probably the only gripe that I would have. But for the most part the broth is great and the meat is good with the ramen as well. Overall great spot!

I can't believe I've come to this place so often and still have yet to rave about how much I love their ramen. There are usually no lines since the restaurant is in a little corner in a plaza on Convoy. The server who usually seats and takes our order is very welcoming, and the inside is small - kind of what you would find in a ramen shop in Japan. I love this place because it is inexpensive compared to other ramen shops, food is good, and I don't have to wait an hour to eat. You may see other reviews mentioning other ramen places, but I think it's fair to judge this place based on its own, especially considering how each ramen shop specializes in different types of ramen. Just my two cents, here's what I usually order: Karami signature ramen: I think its a chicken-based bone broth with a layer of chili oil on top, which adds a much needed spiciness to the broth. It comes with corn, half an ajitama, two thin slices of chashu pork, some marinated bamboo, and pickled red ginger (something that so many ramen places don't include). I love it. My partner and I get a serving of extra noodles and split it, and our total still comes out to less than $20 a bowl. The soup is so flavorful and so salty, just the way I like it in ramen. My favorite part of the dish are the marinated bamboo. It has a sweetness to it that goes well with the saltiness and slight spiciness of the ramen. The noodles are neither thin nor thick, but are cooked well enough to where there is a chew. Karaage chicken: I always get a side of fried chicken with my ramen because I feel like its such a classic dining experience, plus its a great way to gauge how they make their chicken. Karami lightly fries theirs. The batter is not too thick on the chicken, still leaving the inside juicy and moist, although I felt like the chicken during my recent trip was a bit dry. It was still crispy and delicious. It comes with a bed of sliced cabbage and spicy mayo, a perfect complement to their chicken. Overall, Karami is great place to grab a bite of ramen. It's not busy, open relatively late, and offers quick service with many options. It's a great place if you want to support local businesses.

I had a lot of high hopes for this place I really did but I really did not like how close the bathroom was to our table. We were seated right next to it and I immediately smelt the funky smell when I sat down. When I actually went into the bathroom I noticed the door had a lot of gaps. I understand that space is limited but the least they could do is build the door that fully covers any gaps so any smells wouldn't seep into the restaurant. Honestly if I were to come again I would ask for a table the farthest away from it. It was really hard to enjoy my meal knowing there were people going in and out of it and everytime the door opened I would get a whiff of the inside. I was pretty disappointed and because of this I have to knock away 1 star. The food itself was not terrible but also not too memorable. I have worked in a ramen shop in convoy years ago and know that most of these restaurants get their ingredients from pretty much the same suppliers. Almost all restaurants use the same noodles, etc. The only thing I would say is unique about this place is the fact that they use chicken broth as the base not pork. So if you have any diet restrictions to eating pork this will perfect as long as you ask for no chasu toppings. To me it didn't really taste like chicken so they do a good job in that sense. It also didn't feel as heavy as a typical tonkotsu (pork) broth which was nice. Unfortunately, it hasn't made my list of favorite ramen shops but I wouldn't mind going back if a friend or so invites me. Also the price is pretty high so if I want to pay almost $20 for a bowl of ramen I rather go somewhere else.

We have been on a tour of ramen places in San Diego. We had heard good things about Karami Ramen, but we just did not enjoy the food. Food: Karami Signature ($16.50): First off, none of the ramen have a pork base, only chicken broth base. There is a spicy section so our expectation for the Karami Signature was that it would not be spicy. Incorrect conclusion. The soup was drenched in a spicy oil (look at how red the broth is in my picture!) that kept burning the back of my throat and triggering cough. We admit to not being very tolerant of spice, so many of you may enjoy the heat of the broth. But we couldn't even finish drinking ours. Eggs were perfectly softboiled but super salty, so I couldn't even enjoy that. Also compared to many other places on my ramen tour, the dish was a bit small for the price. Chicken Karaage (+$8.80 to make it a combo): Very crunchy batter. But otherwise not particularly remarkable. There was free dried garlic as garnish, which was nice. I love garlic. Ambiance: Cute eatery, although it smelled like cleaning solution (we arrived at opening). Service was quick and attentive. Parking: Free lot parking

Food is the best. Best service and ambiance is nice, like Japan.... Price is cheaper than other ramen restaurants... Try it... we love it! We're surely coming back.... Thank you Karami... we love your ramen (all the foods).

Large parking lot which is rare for the area and a huge plus. Service was quick and attentive. Chicken karaage was delicious with large pieces of chicken. I got the miso tonkotsu, broth was flavorful and noodles were the perfect consistency. The restaurant itself is small and feels quite like the ramen shops you would find in Japan (as others have noted). A great option if you're looking for ramen in convoy!

A great Ramen spot! The restaurant was clean and the service was friendly and attentive. There was a variety on the menu and the food was delicious

The place was quaint and luckily at the time we went there was a table big enough to fit our group of 10. The decor in the restaurant was pretty interesting as it made you feel as if you were on the sidewalk in front of a ramen shop enjoying a nice hot bowl. The staff was very attentive and their menu wasn't overly complicated. I'd definitely recommend this place again as the broth if the ramen was super flavorful.

Listen, all you wannabe Bon Appetit f*^k knuckles, if you don't like that they use chicken broth, then read The damn menu at the entrance. And stop comparing to others. This place is quaint, quick, and food that tastes good. And the water tastes good (yes, that sh*t is important). Ask for garlic. Trust me. The signature ramen slaps. Stop being all artsy, just say if you would come back or not. I would definitely come back

Service is absolutely quicker than most Ramen places. And the servers are nice. Ambiance- feels like you are in Japan. Small restaurant with few tables and chairs. In needs a renovation. It smells old and looks old. Food- we've had the best Ramen in San Diego and it's always been the best and no one can beat it. " Menya Ultra" I ordered Kuro truffle ramen- the truffle powder is so powerful that I was not able to enjoy my ramen. Perhaps if the truffle is less then maybe it has potential. Egg is not as gooey as I am hoping it would be beside that it's only half. This ramen is a solid 2 out of 5. Karami ramen- this is what my husband picked. And I have to say this is much tolerable and it's spicy. The broth is way better. With all kinds of extra toppings in it. I gave this ramen a 3 out of 5. Chicken Karage- this is the only one I enjoyed, great flavor and tasted really good. FYI: Only 1 restroom with weird lock. They should put a cabinet to store all kinds of stuff because it looks messy.

What a treat to come here especially after watching Godzilla Minus One the night before. I felt like we had been transported to a little place on Japan. Reminded me of a ramen eatery we ate at in Kyoto. Service was quick and attentive. We ordered should ramen, gyodon, karaage, and gyoza. The ramen broth was made of chicken and had really deep flavors. Even the chicken cha siu was really tasty. Everything was really delicious. Can't wait to come again.

Pretty good ramen, but the competition for ramen is crazy in san diego. Try menya, ramen nagi.

I want to give this place 10 I went on a Friday night and was seated immediately, ordering their signature ramen which was served in 5 minutes and the taste was utter perfection. The atmosphere is cozy and warm, exactly like my memory of visiting Japan to ramen places. The people was so nice here and don't rush you to eat like other places. I ordered fresh garlic and the ramen hit all the taste buds I was craving - the perfect spice to feel it in the back of your throat, an aromatic garlic smell, a very authentic and creamy chicken broth mixed with the red ginger and marinated bamboo shoots to make this place now my new go-to place for chicken ramen. I LOVE how they offer a variety of chicken broth ramen (I know originally it is pork based). As someone who doesn't eat pork, this is my favorite place. Thank you

Still one of me & my husband's favorite ramen places ever since they Ramen Fest a few years back. Their broth is so creamy and the combo deal is worth it. I usually add a chashu bowl with my truffle ramen Also, I just love ambience. Just reminds me of Japan especially with the music!

First time visiting for dinner and it was a great experience. The restaurant gave off authentic traditional Japanese culture. It's a small space with booths. Service from staff is good. Very attentive and friendly. There is also a button to click when you need service. As for the food, I had the Karami Signature and the Curry Shoyu. Each dish was delicious and I was wanting more but the Karami Signature was my favorite! I definitely recommend if you're looking for a quick bite of ramen.

Food is so good and service is very quick. The venue is small but ample seating; people are in and out. Their habanero ramen is fantastic - the broth is a chicken base and has very deep flavors without being too heavy. Noodles are fresh. Highly recommend and will come back again.

What I ordered | Curry with chicken cutlet ($17.90) | Takoyaki | Garlic Edamame | Gyoza Taste | the portion and taste was good for the cutlet curry. The cutlet has more of a sweet flavor and looks like karage. the appetizers were good. Service | service was decent as there was only one waitress during the thanksgiving weekend. Parking | lot

The empty bowl says it all. We loved this ramen restaurant because the flavors were rich and delicious. The wait was short if you come early and the service was great and attentive. We got the signature ramen and miso tonkatsu ramen. I love how you can choose your size at different price points. I also liked how they had chicken broth for ramen. The place itself was decorated like we were in Japan eating ramen.

SO GOOD. was trying to find a spot in convoy and this place is so freaking good everything we tried. the gyzoa. the octopus ball thing.... takyatori? SO GOOD i need to go back

Let me start off by saying Karami Ramen is a solid ramen spot. There are so many ramen places in the Convoy area alone, that it honestly did not stand out hence the three-star rating instead of four or five. The place is small, but has an authentic feel to it. I saw maybe only 10ish tables and 1 bathroom towards the back- sat right next to it. I wish they would cover up some of their supplies with maybe a curtain or something, cause it's definitely an eyesore. I get it, you don't have much space to work with, but you can put in a little more effort with how you display things. Our waitress was nice and attentive and our food came quickly. We got the garlic edamame & fried gyoza for apps. The garlic edamame was over steamed- it was mushy! Kind of disappointed about that. The fried gyoza was average, nothing special about it The ramen I opted for was the Classic Miso Tonkotsu [$14.50] and was really tasty! The broth was flavorful and not too salty while the noodles were pretty good. Karami is a good spot for ramen, but would I wait for it like I do at other ramen spots (looking at you Menya Ultra)? No. Also, that parking lot is atrocious- even for a Convoy lot, it's bad.

This newish ramen spot is a welcome addition to the Convoy area. It's a bit hidden in the corner, near Sunrise Buffet. They kept their menu simple, just front and back. Ramen on the front and curry, appetizers, extras, and drinks on the back side. I can't comment on the curry (yet), because so far the wifey and I have made the trip here for the ramen only. We have probably been here at least a handful of times and between the both of us, we have tried most of their ramen. My favorite so far has been the Karami Signature Ramen. It has great flavored tori paitan (chicken broth), mild spice and it's topped with chashu, and a seasoned boiled egg. They also throw in bamboo shoots, green onion, and corn. You get enjoyable flavors, plus a little bit of kick, and different textures that work well together! If you're a fan of spiciness, you will probably like their Habanero Miso, Thai Shoyu, or Aka Oni. My wife has tried them all and she really likes the Thai Shoyu. I prefer the Habanero Miso if I'm in the mood for some spice. The decor is nice and there are a good amount of tables here. The place is pretty clean as well. Staff is friendly and attentive. Parking is generally okay here in this shopping center, but on peak weekend hours you might have some difficulty. We are fans and will continue to return. 4 / 5 - Ramen 4 / 5 - Cleanliness 4 / 5 - Service 4 / 5 - Overall

The Thai Shoyu was outstanding! Seating is cozy, very small seating area but feels homey like the hole in the wall ramen shops in Japan.

Had a great lunch special! Got a chance to try the curry and the ramen for a really good price! It's a small shop but once inside, you feel like you're in Japan! It was my first time there but cannot wait to go back!

Food: lunch special ramen and karangeen chicken was EXCELLENT. Chicken was spicy but SO GOOD. The combo was actually big for me. I paid over $20 for 1 lunch special. Service: very good. Small restaurant, feel like stepping into Japan. Will come back.

My friend recommended me this ramen spot in Convoy so I thought we should check it out. I got the special house ramen which was pretty flavorful and had lots of veggies and noodles. It was the perfect portion size for me so I'm glad that I didn't have any leftovers! It does have limited seating but we didn't have an issue when coming in. The waiters were okay with service, they sat us in the back table so it was hard to get their attention sometimes. Other than that, great ambiance and store

Not sure how I found this place or where I was at but was really craving Ramen and it came up on Yelp. Great and welcoming customer service and their menu was easy to navigate. So happy that they didn't use MSG on the fried rice and for sure will return in the future.

Decided to try this place out at my friend's recommendation and was not disappointed! The chicken broth is delicious. The noodle is softer than what I've been used to, but works well. The umeshu was good too. Good portions :) The vibe and service were both good. They were playing some retro city pop

Best Ramen Adventure in Linda Vista! Atmosphere and service are as excellent as the cuisine! Must visit! Warning: limited seating and odd hours so call ahead but definitely worth checking in.. See you there...

I eat a lot of ramen. I have eaten ramen in many countries all over the world. This ramen tastes like real Japanese ramen. The noodles are 固め-still kind of firm, not cooked to death like some places in San Diego. You can taste the alkali wheat like how they make it in kansai. The broth is rich, and the egg is perfectly cooked, custard consistency. There's no flaws in the bowl of ramen. Service was 10/10. The decor was themed like a asakusa-modern. If you like ramen and you miss Japan, go here. すべてはおいしいです ありがとうございます

Since my family and I were visiting Convoy Street to pick up some bento boxes from Nijiya Market, we were looking for some places to eat nearby since we were very hungry. We stumbled upon this ramen place in the same plaza. Upon coming here on Christmas Eve, we noticed it was quite empty to begin with. The place itself was quite small, with couch and bar-like seating available. I ordered the Tori Paitan Shoyu Ramen. To my surprise, it tasted pretty decent -- my bowl was filled with ramen noodles, bamboo shoots, ramen egg, and green onions. The only thing that tasted off was the chicken chashu. Most ramen places use pork so I wasn't used to that and also the chicken itself was quite bland. The broth was on the saltier end still but overall the ramen chewiness is a good consistency. I did notice that this place won the SD food competition for their Karami Signature dish. I probably wouldn't come here again but if I wanted something quick, this is a decent place to go for ramen. Nothing too special about it.

We happened to come across this little hole-in-the wall place because the restaurant we originally wanted to go to was packed. Definitely no regrets! The ramen was perfectly al dente. The egg was perfectly golden gooey. Good amount of veggies. Flavorful chicken broth that was surprisingly just as good as a pork bone broth. Will definitely come back!

The menu says Tonkotsu but underneath says chicken broth. Looks like tonkotsu soup though... All the rest of ramen is chicken broth so I'm gonna assume they don't spend extra time and care to make pork broth??? Some people can't have pork so I think it should be clarified. Remember beef juice incident at McD? The eggs were too salty. The karaage were huge and crunchy

Karami Ramen is tucked away in a corner suite next to a tattoo shop and to the left (south) of Mignon Pho + Grill. Their original signage was at ground level which made it easy to drive past and miss the location. They were four small tables that can seat four people each, one table for two, and nine seats at the bar. I noticed that the chairs were quite low to the ground so taller folks may have a harder time adjusting their legs underneath the table. The seat backs were not very high either. Don't recline too far or else you could lose your balance and fall backwards. The place specializes in spicy ramen with chili peppers from different countries infusing their broths. The heat levels ranged from spicy to hot to extra hot. They also offered traditional ramen for those who prefer non-spicy noodles as well as curry with rice. At my visit, I chose a spicy cha-siu SHIO ramen which had a three pepper tag and contained chilies from Korea. I asked for an additional portion of noodles to my bowl. The contents looked fiery when it came out, but after I mixed everything up and started eating, I didn't think it was too spicy. The broth was quite oily which definitely didn't make me want to drink it after finishing the noodles. The prices seemed to be higher compared to other nearby ramen shops on Convoy St. If you like spiciness in your ramen broth, then this spot would be great for the taste buds as you can amp up the heat. If you are looking for regular ramen in a traditional broth, then I think there are equally good spots along the same street.

Went to Karami today. Staff and service was awesome. Super kind people working. Got the Aka Oni. I like my food spicy and just wish this was spicier. Overall flavor and texture of the soup was gentle, subtle, creamy, and delicious. Noodles had a good bite to it. I added butter and garlic for some extra deliciousness. Second time there and would go back again.

Hidden gem of San Diego. If you are looking for a little cozy comfort Japanese food, this is the place. The restaurant is not big but you have your own space. The decor is very much like a Ramen shop in Japan. The staff was very friendly. The food came out quickly. The menu is simple. The price was reasonable. The portion was enormous. I ordered a a curry bowl which cost $18. At first I though it was expensive, but when it came out, it was huge and definitely worth the money. The signature ramen was also good. We were there on Friday night and it was surprisingly not crowded. Strongly recommend.

It's the third time I've been here, and each time I can't help but feel what a great deal it is for lunch! Each time I've been here, we had lots of leftover. This time, my wife and I shared and upsized lunch for one and we just finished it, without feeling like we overate. Don't expect an upscale decor or very intimate service. It's a hole in the wall that serves good ramen, large portion sizes and very tasty karage chicken! The ramen: nicely al dente cooked in a thick, deep flavored broth. The egg is perfectly cooked, and the char siu, although tasty, is very much on the thin side. A solid B+. Karage chicken: very lightly breaded but still nice crunch and the chicken is super juicy. I would prefer a touch more seasoning but it's still very tasty. An A-. Keep in mind the portions are generous. Unless you're a really big eater, I would highly recommend sharing when ordering combos.

Food was really good as far as the Ramen and chicken Karage that we ate. Definitely a great find.

Little place stuck in the corner near a buffet and a Vietnamese restaurant. This place is small with 5 to 6 tables and a bar area for sitting. The tables and chairs are low, so tall people will have to adjust. The ramen is all chicken broth based with a vegan option. The noodles are on point and the pork is a bit thicker then other places. you can always elevated the spicy with a side of chili oil. The ramen are served with bigger spoon which adds to the experience. since this place is small be prepared to wait during peek hours especially during the weekend. The food is served fast and hot. If you like to try something different and tasty.. hit this place up.

I don't know why karami does not get more attention for San Diego ramen. They have award winning ramen dishes and remarkable choices to select. From the noodles to the broth, it was a delight. There was a plenty of supplemental vegetables and a gooey softboiled egg in the ramen. Perfect acessories to these noodle dshes. The cozy tables, small-ish seats that almost didn't fit my American butt and actual Japanese staff made it more authentic. Definitely a go-to place for ramen.

Karami is great!! We stopped eating pork for almost 2 years now and we have missed ramen. Unfortunately the majority of ramen are all pork broth, so we were delighted to find that all their ramen were in chicken broth and they also had chicken chashu. The Kuro truffle ramen is delicious. Who would have thought truffle goes with ramen but it does and it's soo good. Definitely a different take on traditional pork ramen. The Takoyaki was yummy, but do be careful because it's hot and you can totally burn your tongue. Lol! Just like what I did. Hot sauces! There are 3 choices, Korean, Indian and Chili Oil. All three are great, the Indian one is the hottest. The place is quite, simple and cozy. The tables and chairs are authentic seating so much lower than normal, adding to the ambience.

Love their food and this cute mom and pop restaurant! First of all, it's a small small place like what you will find in Tokyo (from what I heard; I forgot what Tokyo was like when I went there at 8 years old lol) so... if you have a family of 14, you might just wanna book the whole restaurant to have a private party here. My point is, a party of 4-6 is still reasonable for the space. They have outdoor seating so that actually would make you feel less cramped. Space aside, the food here was bomb and the lady who served us was very nice. We got the famous tonkotsu ramen that won the San Diego ramen festival award, the spicy ramen, fried rice and chicken karaage. Everything was sooooo delicious! You won't be disappointed! The prices were also very reasonable. Even our picky eater kid liked the food. The ramen broth had good depth Ans umami flavor. They were also generous with the toppings. Not having to charge extra for eggs, corn or whatever. That's how I like my ramen, wholesome and savory. Can't wait to go back and try other stuff!

Came here on a Friday night and only had one party ahead of us. The place is located in a plaza that has Nijiya, and is quite lowkey. Loved the vibes, server was also friendly and attentive. 5/5 for the takoyaki and gyoza. Takoyaki was crispy on the outside, packed a lot of flavor and the sauce was thick and concentrated, which made it really tasty. The gyoza was also great. Make sure to order the 6 pc dishes to get more bang out if your buck. 4/5 for the thai shoyu ramen. Karami serves more traditional type of ramen, the noodles are more similar to shin ramyun and the soup base is light but flavorful. It's definitely drinkable and is not as rich compared to Menya Ultra. Noodles had good texture, the egg was soft and perfectly cooked. There was only one piece of thin chashu. Would've given a 5/5 if they had a thicker slice of meat or could have added one more slice but am looking forward to come back to try their karaage.
