I will highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for authentic and savory Japanese cuisine in Fairbanks. The best ramen in local There is a station for homemade kombucha that really amazed and refreshed our taste. The perfect amount of sour, sweet, and fruity mix together. The husband of the owner is so hospitable and enthusiastic sharing info about the store and invite us for tasting. Really lucky to meet him!!!

If flavor had a final boss battle, the Pork Bao Buns sandwiches I just devoured would be the undefeated champion standing atop a mountain of fallen taste buds.

The moment they arrived, steam rising like mystical aura energy, I knew I was not in the presence of an ordinary sandwich. No. This was a full-on shōnen protagonist entrance. The buns themselves? Pillowy clouds forged in the hidden village of Dough. Soft. Fluffy. Slightly sweet. They weren’t bread — they were emotional support companions cradling destiny.

And then… the pork.

Tender. Juicy. Glazed with a sauce so rich and savory it felt like unlocking a forbidden flavor technique passed down through generations. Each bite triggered a flashback arc. The caramelized edges hit with that crispy “CLANG!” sound effect you’d see in bold letters across the screen. Sweet, salty, umami it was a three-way combo attack that left me dramatically kneeling at the table whispering, “This power… it’s over 9000.”

Halfway through the second bao, I experienced what I can only describe as a transformation sequence. Aura blazin’, taste buds ascending, background music swelling. I wasn’t just eating anymore, I was training.

By the final bite, I felt victorious yet humbled. These Pork Bao Buns didn’t just satisfy hunger, they told a story. A saga, a legend passed down in whispers across late-night food quests.

Would I order them again?

Without hesitation. Without fear. Without limit.

10/10. I would pledge loyalty to this bao clan and defend its honor in the great culinary tournament arc.

Ordered their Tonkotsu ramen and popcorn karaage chicken. I’d say 7 out of 10. Im very strict reviewing Ramen since a lot of my family members used to work as a ramen chef and I been to many ramen spots in LA and Washington. Their broth base taste slightly bland and not as creamy as I thought. Their ultra spicy paste is solid but quite expensive for a small little paste of it. My spice tolerance is very high and their spicy paste is just right at 5 out of 10 spiciness level. It feels as if they use angel hair type of noodle, very thin and soft, which I really like. Their popcorn chicken karaage breading is okay, nothing too fancy.

Service is almost non existant. I asked the young lady if they got any wifi I could use since I just got here from Washington and Tmobile is really bad but she said she does not know the password. Fair.
No water served at all either. You put the dishes back to a basket they prep for you. The young lady never came up to you to ask if everything was good either. She was just on the phone call with someone almost the entire time and went back inside, no one else was outside until a new customer showed up and a different lady came up to greet them. I shouldve given no tips tbh but it is what it is.

Would I come back? Maybe, in the far future. But only to go. Oh they charge $1.50 for to go.
Pricing is alright. Definitely cannot compare this to anything like Tatsu ramen, Tsujita or Kizuki.
It’s 3.5 out of 5 at best. People who give 5 out of 5 for their ramen really have never tasted other ramen in the West Coast.

We tried the spicy beef buns, Takayuki (octopus balls), and chicken karage. No ramen. All the food tasted great. Small counter-service place located near a fuel depot. Worthwhile to visit and have lunch.

Absolutely delicious We LOVED everything we ate. Chef and staff are adorable and kind. We will be coming back a lot!

I wanted to add a little “edit” after reading some of “not so great” reviews. We lived in Japan for 3 years and Oishi Kitchen is as close as we found to traditional Japanese Ramen. Someone wrote the eggs were rubbery and I think they also said discolored… Duh!!! It’s been marinated, that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be. I ordered extra eggs after eating one bite of one. I guess it upsets me when someone reviews specific foods they’ve never tried in the original country and know nothing about!
Let’s be honest, there aren’t a ton of great restaurants in this silly little town of Fairbanks but Oishi Kitchen is one of them! Absolutely delicious
Lastly, I don’t care where you order food from, take out will never ever be as good as dine in! Food tastes better fresh in ceramic dishes than Styrofoam…. That’s just a fact!

We ordered two traditional ramen. Both were very flavorful and plentiful. Price margins are not bad either. Location is tucked back behind the industrial railroad area, but it actually makes for a quiet Cove to enjoy lunch.

Tonkotsu ramen is probably the one of the best ramen I had in US, thin but medium firm noodles with rich soup base, perfect boiled egg with super soft chashu. I almost finish all the soup!

I paired the vegetables gyoza and kombucha set, it turned out to very tasty too.

Edamame’s portion is way bigger than the normal appetizer based on its price.

Really love this gem restaurant, will visit again when I’m in Fairbanks.

Nice little spot for ramen. Clean, quiet bar stools to eat or option for carry out, dine outside tent. I ordered the miso ramen, was not quite hot like it sat for a bit but it was ok. The potstickers were good. Liked the flavor. They also sell kombucha in many great flavors. Will go there again and make sure my ramen is hot and not warm.

The food was top tier. The Kombucha was mind shattering. The Apple Crisp was so smooth and had no bite to it. I had to get the 64oz of it ($21) aka “The Guzzler” to take home. I got the vegetarian tan tan ramen and they did such a great job with the tofu textures. I thought it was beef and it honestly was just tofu. It was so flavorful and had the perfect amount of spice. (Don’t get it if you aren’t a glutton for spicy punishment ) They are masterful in that kitchen

Hidden gem of Fairbanks! I’ve gone to their place since their initial open, and their menu has widen but also lost some really good tasty treats (most of their bakery goods are no longer offered!) But their food selection is still on point! Their Ramen and bao buns are my ultimate fave. If you want the most authentic ramen locally, this is your place. The seating is limited and bar style, very fitting for a single person or duo visit, less accommodating for large groups. Also their newer location is not in a high traffic area and somewhat hidden.
