"Between the long lines, and the soundtrack that could only have been picked by a DJ-turned-ramen chef (true story), getting into Ramen Tatsu-ya feels like you just walked into Austin’s hottest club. It’s conveniently located within walking distance from most of the bars on the East Side, making it a great place to start (or end) your night with some fuel. Get the Ol’ Skool made with chicken shoyu broth if you want something a little lighter, or just go all in with one of the classic tonkotsu bowls." - nicolai mccrary, adele hazan, raphael brion
"Between the ever-present line and the soundtrack that could only have been picked by a DJ-turned-ramen chef (true story), getting into one of Ramen Tatsu-ya’s five locations feels like you just walked into Austin’s hottest club, but without a stuffy dress code, and with food you actually want to eat. Don’t worry, the line moves fast. But if it ever starts to feel too daunting, just grab a beer from the bar inside while you wait. Or, if you’re at the East Austin location, head to Domo Alley-Gato next door—Ramen Tatsu-Ya’s sister bar concept, where you’ll also have access to the full ramen menu, usually with a much shorter line." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
"I slurp worries away with delicate ramen and vegetables in a rich broth — perfect comfort for an autumn night." - Erin Russell
"A hyped BBQ-ramen concept that attracted a lot of chatter barely had time to establish itself before closing; many people talked about it but some never managed to visit, leaving the impression it shuttered shortly after opening." - Erin Russell
