“ The beef ramen is amazing!! I absolutely love it. I highly recommend this place. The service was great too. ”

“ Sooooo excuse the lack of pictures, just imagine in your taste buds how good the food is San images. We were greeted right away as we stepped in, and sat immediately. We were a party of 6, and our server immediately brought us iced water, it was also a hot day. Not sure what water they use, or if Mira Mesa just has good tap water but didn't have that yucky taste. We ordered some edemame and gyoza to start off. They were yummy, the gyoza was kinda pan fried? Not sure but the pieces were stuck together, like one big giant gioza, shad a good crisp and amazing savory flavor. Loads of different ramen bowls and everything was very good, the only reason I'm taking away a star, even though the flavor was really good and everyone savored their ramen, the protein was one of the smallest portions I've ever had at any ramen place, really good taste, just need a tad bit more meat. I had the miso ramen, the miso broth was perfection! Not overly hot that you can't eat it right away, just right and ready to dig in as soon as it hits the table! There was just one in our party that didn't have ramen and went for the karage bento, from the miso soup, the salad, rice and karage it was so perfectly put together. I snatched a bite of the karage and it was like heaven melted in my mouth. Hmmmm. Outside of that the restaurant is very clean and pleasant. Didn't have to wait long for our food to come out. Our server neatly packaged our left overs, and we were on our way. Very decently priced as well, great value! ”

“ If you are a ramen lover, this is perfect place with so many different varieties of ramen, also have vegan options. All the ramens were so good and flavorful, they also have lunch combos which include ramen and choice of appetizers. Price is pretty decent and quantity is also good. ”

“ I recently decided I wanted to start trying some of the "other" ramen places in San Diego. I've tried all the usual suspects (Menya, Taijima, Nishiki, Rakiraki, etc). I went to Isshido because it was close. Had the Black Garlic Tonkotsu and an order of their chicken wings. I asked for the upgrade to the house "thick noodle" for $1. The soup was very good. Flavorful, good texture, and their garlic oil went well with it. Chashu was fine, although VERY thinly sliced. If you're a fan of protein you might want to order more as an add-in. The egg was well cooked although a little bland. The only disappointing part was the noodles. Even though I had ordered the "thick" ones, they were still very thin and felt like standard store-bought egg noodles. Very similar (if not the same) as the ones they use at Santouka. The surprise of the meal was the chicken wings however. The are cooked to order (they will warn you it takes 15-20 mins) and come out super fresh and hot. The flavoring is like the popcorn chicken you might get at a Boba place (heavy on the salt and white pepper, which I love). Super delicious. I'd come back just for the wings. Service was polite, restaurant was clean. Overall beat my expectations based on what I had read, especially the wings. I'd come here over Taijima or Rakiraki any day. ”

“ Wow, I dunno how someone can rate this place less than 5 starts. This place is underrated. It's funny because I've seen this place before but never thought to try it, then one of my friends recommended me to try it out. So I did today, we were like 6 people so we ordered many different appetizers and everything was so good! I ordered the short ribs ramen and it was amazing! Service was great! Food came out pretty fast. I really liked this place. I will come back many time for sure. ”

“ We've been here twice and it was very good. This time we came for restaurant week, all ramen was 15% off and each order came with a free small appetizer. I had the Black Mayu tonkotsu ramen this time; the flavor was good and flavorful, but not as smoky as the black garlic ramen I've had at other places. The broth was also too salty. The regular tonkotsu ramen is also good, I like that the chashu is thinly sliced and not too fatty. There is usually lots of seating, quick service, and the prices seem slightly lower than other ramen restaurants in the area. ”

“ I was very impressed with the menu. There was a wide variety of broths, noodles and options for adding toppings to your ramen, as well as many spice levels. The hostess/waitress was very friendly and helpful, and considering she was the only one on the floor she did great being attentive to all the guests. I ordered the spicy tan-tan, as this style is generally one of my favorites -- and they didn't disappoint. At the "very spicy" level I had plenty of heat, but not too much to be overpowering. The flavors came through strong, and the noodles (thin al-dente-ish) were really nice. I ordered chicken katsu with my ramen, and it was good, though a little different from what I'm used to. Not as crispy of a breading, and a lot of sauce on top... which had an interesting tangy citrus flavor to it. I also had a taste of my wife's spicy miso with pork chasu... it was really good as well. She got the thicker noodles that our server recommended, as she was quite pleased with them. Overall a great experience, tasty ramen, and plenty of heat. By the time we left the restaurant was packed, so definitely plan ahead and prepare for a bit of a wait if you come during peak meal times. ”
