Tampopo Ramen

It’s been awhile since I ate from here. But I decided to order something today and the dishes were still great. They listen to my request and were nice over the phone. When I’m craving vegan ramen again, I’ll be back to order.

The Shoyu Ramen with added Nori seaweed hit the spot and was perfect. The mixture of the soy sauce and chicken broth was delicious. The chicken version was charbroiled and added to the layers of flavor. It also comes with pork, if desired. The kikurage mushrooms are also very good. I would highly recommend this dish and literally ate every last drop!

Delicious! Fast and friendly service. I just wish the pork was a little crispy on the bao buns. They were tasty tho.

I’ve never had a bad dish here! Ramen is great, lunch special is a good deal for the quality and variety of the food. Service is always on point. Seasonal items and specials are great - cold sesame noodle for the summer! The happy hour drink deals are also a great value. Overall great spot. Lucky I work nearby.

Very flavorful, would relieve any hangover or if you’re feeling under the weather I recommend it. The pork buns are my favorite they have this sweet yet not overbearing taste, they’re perfect. Though it’s a really small place to dine in the tasty food makes you overlook this con.

Tampopo was recommended by a friend of mine who also loved ramen. Maybe we came on a busy day, they had us waiting over 30minutes, standing by the door and having to move every time someone came in to pick up an order. After standing there, I also believe that they have a huge clientele on delivery orders. The place is very cozy, but the service was slow. Some plates were delicious, some didn’t live up to my standards, based on my friend’s. Once again, I came with my bf and my (fan lover of ramen) mother… we shared appetizers: Steamed (pork) bao buns, Pan fried gyoza dumplings and Fried pork katsu. For entree I had Shoyu ramen with chicken karaage added on, my mom had Shio classic ramen, and my bf had the Spicy miso ramen with pork katsu added on. We LOVED the appetizers, every single one was super tasteful and different in flavor, but we were mind blown by the deliciousness of each appetizer choice!! The ramen were not as we expected… the eggs were so cold, we couldn’t even eat them, my broth was salty, my mom’s broth choice lacked on flavor, they took so long but our ramen didn’t feel or taste like it was freshly made, only some components, like the add ons, but that’s that. I would definitely come back to try more of their appetizers, try their rices and maybe their stir fry. But for sure wouldn’t come back if I craved ramen only, not my first choice for it.

Had a great experience at Tampopo. Staff was super friendly. We had the chicken and pork Bao Buns and Purple sweet potato Tempura fries. The fries weren't that sweet, but went very well with the curry mayo dipping sauce. Buns were spot on. Perfectly soft with amazing combo of sauces. For main I ordered the Ginger Beef Ramen. I highly recommend adding the spicy chili oil if you want to kick the Flavor up a notch. It was truly perfection

I have to be honest this ramen is very mediocre. There aren’t many places in wahi to compare to but compared to what you get downtown this ramen is nothing to write home about. I had the spicy miso and it wasn’t spicy at all, egg was overcooked and char siu was not high quality and felt lacking. Overall the broth could use more flavor as well, was not very hot, and did not taste authentic. Service was slow but it was new years so they should get a break for that. Nothing was bad per say, just disappointed based on the reviews I expected more. If you have a ramen kick in the area I guess its a good spot to go since there aren’t options but would not go out of my way to come here.
