Charming and tasty. We got our food quickly, the place wasn’t too loud, and everybody seemed to be having a great time. Only note? The Roman could’ve been a little hotter, but we like our soup really really hot.

So where can I start first off me and my family meet up for dinner at this place. The tall white waiter had zero costumer service and a cocky attitude. He asked if we would like to order drinks then my wife told him we would like to order appetizers he say I’m only taking drink orders rn. If you can’t multi task you shouldn’t be a waiter bud. Then our appetizers was cold and the calamari was chewy but to top it off our crab sticks still had the plastic wrapping on them rolled in batter and fried. The workers just made like it was a normal thing and replaced it with a new one plastic not included. The price is high the food lacks flavor and the service sucks. I do not recommend this place for any reason. I wish I could give negative stars.

This ramen spot quickly became one of my favorites in town. Their tonkotsu ramen is absolutely outstanding—the broth is rich, creamy, and full of depth, with that slow-cooked, porky goodness that warms you from the inside out. Every sip feels like it’s been simmered for hours, layering flavors until they’re perfectly balanced. Paired with springy noodles and tender slices of chashu, it’s comfort in a bowl.
The chicken karaage is another highlight. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned just right—it’s the kind of side dish you end up ordering “for the table” and then secretly wanting to keep for yourself. It’s the perfect complement to the ramen, offering a satisfying crunch between bites of silky broth and noodles.
The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the service is quick without feeling rushed. Prices are reasonable, especially given the quality. Whether you’re a ramen aficionado or just in the mood for a hearty, satisfying meal, this place delivers every time.

The menu does the place no justice. The food was very good. I almost changed my mind after seeing just the menu but I’m happy I stayed. We ordered tempura shrimp, the spiral potato, and the AI ramen. Everything was fresh and everything was good. I took the ramen home and microwaved it, it was just as good. I’d definitely return!

Great food and great service. The Ai Ramen was hearty with a rich, creamy broth and the soft boiled egg cooked perfectly. The chicken karaage was moist and tender with just the right amount of seasoning that goes well with the spicy mayo. The agedashi tofu was deliciously crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, although the broth seemed to be sharper and saltier than most other places have; I personally prefer it to be more on the sweet side, but it was good nonetheless. Unfortunately I only ordered one quail egg skewer and wasn’t able to get a good sense of the taste, but the mantou skewer was great with the condensed milk on the side and would make a very good dessert for the meal. The staffers were attentive, courteous, and seemed to have things together fairly well for a restaurant on it’s first day. I will definitely be coming here again and am eager to see how the restaurant develops after a month or two.

Decided on this place based on a whim and was in the mood for ramen. I will tell you, they don’t disappoint. Acknowledged us instantly, handed us a menu and let us find a seat we wanted. Not even 2 minutes later brought us tall iced waters and asked if we wanted to order or wait a few minutes. We did wait so we could take a look at the menu. Decided on a couple Ramens. Came back and took our order about 2-3 minutes later. With in 5 minutes of ordering. Our food was brought out to us. Props to the Chef/s in the back. Flavor was amazing, ramen was cooked perfectly, the presentation was eye catching. Really enjoyed the whole experience. I will be back and telling more people about your amazing Ramen restaurant. Thank you AI Ramen.

Finally some good ramen! Wasn’t having any luck in Albany. This broth has perfect balance, not so fishy like other places. Definitely try the spicy tuna tower!

Fresh, authentic and flavorful Ramen that will leave you wanting more! Every bowl at Ai Ramen is balanced and filled with a punch of flavor.
The Food – Tasteful and fresh, cooked in a clean kitchen and environment. Everyone was wearing masks.
The Menu – Simple. No cut corners or fluff. Try the Karaage Chicken..you won’t be disappointed
Atmosphere – Very open and clean. Plenty of seating with a hint of underground hip-hop in the background.
All in All 5/5 – I have always said that Corvallis needed a good Ramen shop in north town. I hope they do well and serve consistent bowls of fantastic ramen!

The best Raman place in Corvallis. But just so you know the price is expensive. Takoyaki is awesome. Their beverages is not good. And with this price I will expect better Ramen.
