Flavorful ramen & Japanese small plates in a playful setting
"Yes, this basement noodle joint does a very Colorado green chile ramen, but purists shouldn’t worry—they’ve got killer bowls of porky tonkotsu and spicy miso ramen, too. Beyond the broth, you’ll want to prioritize some of the shareable small plates like spam musubi, blistered shishito peppers, and okonomiyaki fries. The vibe is super industrial here, with concrete just about everywhere you look, exposed ducts, and neon lighting the subterranean space. " - allyson reedy
"An early favorite in the still-emerging RiNo district when it opened in 2015, Jeff Osaka’s underground ramen shop is of course best known for its namesake, mostly traditional noodle bowls. But for many regulars, half the fun of a meal here lies in seasonal specials like green chile–chorizo ramen as well as in signature snacks, from karaage and okonomiyaki fries to Spam musubi and mochi doughnuts. (Speaking of fun, Osaka also owns kaiten-zushi Sushi-Rama around the corner.)" - Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias

"Tora Ramen, a new stall at the Golden Triangle’s Broadway Market food hall, will open soon. Chef Jesusio Silva plans to offer a variety of ramen dishes with experimental flavors, blending Mexican and Japanese influences. The menu will also include Japanese appetizers such as house-made gyoza and black mussels in red curry sauce." - Paul Albani-Burgio
