Ramen Ryoma Pacific Beach

Visited Ramen Ryoma for the first time after hearing glowing recommendations, and the experience was a pleasant spin on a classic ramen night out. Kicked things off with the karaage chicken, which really nailed it, crispy, flavorful, and clearly a must-try on the menu. For the main event, I went with the butter corn ramen in a shoyu broth. It was a smooth and warming bowl, though it didn’t quite deliver a standout moment compared to some of the other ramen shops I’ve tried over the years. Service was friendly and moved at a good pace, keeping the vibe relaxed and comfortable, even if nothing particularly memorable stood out. While I have to admit I've had ramen with a bit more wow factor elsewhere, Ramen Ryoma still offers a cozy atmosphere and satisfying flavors that make it a solid spot for a casual meal. I may not have found my new go-to, but it's a nice option for anyone on the hunt for good comfort food and great fried chicken in town.

Really enjoyed the sushi and the Ramen was easy to order and packed great flavor. The scenery is gorgeous and the staff was really friendly and accommodating. Will def be back!

I got miso ramen and liked their thick noodle and rich miso broth. I also enjoyed the soup, but black oil was a bit too much for me because I’m used to regular miso ramen. The atmosphere at the restaurant is good! I dig samurai and their murals!

This location is top 3 ramen in the city and I’ve been to a bunch of spots. It’s specifically this location though—the hillcrest location was probably bottom 3 for me. This is the second time I’ve had a 10/10 bowl here, and I got a different one each time. This one was the Miso Mayu Tamago. Great service as well. Go on a weeknight when they’re slow and enjoy. Oh and if Japanese beer is your thing they have Orion, don’t see that one everywhere.

We’re on vacation here and we thought this was better than any ramen place back home. Top quality food and very reasonably priced. Glad we gave it a try.

Super friendly service. I was a little disappointed in my shoyu ramen. The egg was more on the hard boil side, and I only tasted soy sauce. It lacks a secondary flavor. Overall affordable. I'd come back for the sushi 🍣.

You are greeted with a hearty welcome and the spicy umami ramen ( miso broth) is fantastic. Supersize it! You won’t regret it. We haven’t tried their other menu items because this is SO good :)

Last second choice to go here and was kind of disappointed with how the ramen tasted. The broth was not creamy and felt kind of watered down. Not saying it was bad but it just wasn’t the best. The prices were really good and the sides were also decent
