Some of the best ramen that I have ever tasted! The servers and staff were amazing and created a welcoming atmosphere. There was good music and intimate spaces for you to sit. Food came out in a good amount of time and was so delicious! I will definitely be coming back several times.

Finally got to stop by this ramen spot that opened in May of 2024. The atmosphere was very welcoming as the host and kitchen staff welcomed us as we walked to our table with a smile. The restaurant was very neat and clean and the bar looked as if it would be a cool hangout in the evenings. We had lunch here so we just sat in the dining area. Our server was very pleasant and got our orders and drinks taken quickly. I personally liked the food as the Gyoza was delicious and the ramen had a good flavor. I think it could have been a bit hotter however. It's a bit pricier than I expected as well but my wife and I were able to eat for $31 although she didn't get ramen. We shared one just to taste it because she's not a major fan of the broth. Great job to the staff and I'd recommend it if you're in the area to give this place a try!

For a long time I've felt Louisville needed an great Ramen spot! This is it! I stopped in for lunch, service was fast! The waitress was super helpful! I had the strawberry milk tea. I'm not sure how you don't love milk tea. Strawberry isn't my fave, but this was good. I'd definitely have it again. I started with a pork chasu bun. So solid! I could have made a meal out of these! (Could very well come back just and do that). Don't you judge me!!!! I also had the Kiwami Shiro. I toyed with adding things, but decided to have it as is before I tried my hand at chef. This is a solid bowl of noodles! Great portion size, great flavor, and balance of ingredients. The broth got progressively better as I got to the bottom. I'd be curious to come feel the vibe of this place at night. During the day, very chill and quiet. I can see how it would be an awesome spot later in the evening.

A friend wanted to try this place for lunch so we came by on a weekday. It had been on my list for a while. I had been following any updates on the Courier Journal since their opening date had been pushed. When we came in, it wasn't super busy. A few groups here and there dining in. Likely people who work nearby and had stopped in for lunch. We ordered 2 of the soft shell crab buns to share among 4 of us. But surprisingly, they didn't have knives for us to divide them...we had asked the staff and they simply didn't have any. I get that it's a ramen shop but... Anyway, the bao was very good! Something I would order if I went back! We also got ramen too. 2 of us got the spicy ramen, kiwami aka, while the other 2 got kiwami shiro. Not even spicy at all! Maybe something in between mild and medium but leaning towards mild. I love the Hell ramen at Ramen House and I was expecting something super spicy! Overall, it's not bad. It's nice to see other ramen shops in town. One con was that the back area was very warm. They had a fan on but it wasn't blowing towards us. Hopefully they can figure something out with that!
