This ramen is some of the best I’ve had. Noodles are perfectly chewy, the broth is complex and delicious, the toppings are top notch. Highly recommend anything and everything on the menu.
We had the pleasure of talking to Frankie about his journey opening his ramen shop while we were there, too. His passion for ramen is obvious and it shows in the food he creates. He sources everything as locally as possible and you can taste the difference. The bar is a fun spot to hang out in, too. A win-win all around. We will definitely be back.

The owner, Frankie, was above and beyond in his welcoming service and superb culinary skills. The food was 11/10 so amazing and flavorful. The portions were huge and diverse. Talking with him he was very passionate about his niche in ramen and bring his

You walk into Frontier Lounge and invariably you’ll think you’ve walked into the wrong place. You ask the bartender sheepishly “is there a ramen joint in here?” and you’re informed that yes, there is in fact a ramen joint in here and it’s at the back. As you order on the kiosk you see Frankie whipping up some amazing food. You’re in for a ride.
I live in the Toronto area and have ramen regularly, and Frankie’s is as good or better than any I’ve had. The broth is substantive and layered in flavour, you want to drink it. Everything else is cooked perfectly (noodles not overcooked, pork tender, egg yolky and delicious). Paired great with a pint or two from the front of house.
I never thought I’d have an amazing bowl of ramen in a cowboy bar, but that’s Charleston for you. 10/10, would recommend, and will return. Thanks Frankie!

THE most AMAZING $1 dumplings you will ever eat! Served with your choice of sauces. My favorite when visiting the Charleston area. My daughter turned me onto this place. You will not be disappointed!

This place has great ramen! The gooey egg is really good along with the rich broth! The portions are a good size and it is very filling!
The chef, Frankie, is pretty amazing! He has a passion for cooking and it shows! He’s also very personable.
Try this place, you won’t regret it if you like good ramen!

Frankie Ramen is a true gem!
I stopped by with my best man and another close friend on a Wednesday night, and it turned out to be the perfect hump day treat. We ordered the Shio Ramen (pork) along with dumplings, and everything was made completely from scratch.
The ramen was absolutely delicious—savory and flavorful, yet surprisingly light. The broth had this delicate balance with a touch of lemon that made it stand out from any ramen I’ve had before. The dumplings were just as satisfying and clearly prepared with care.
What made the night even more memorable was meeting the chef and owner. He personally came to our table, and his passion for the craft was inspiring. Learning that he studied in Japan for 18 days straight, perfecting his skills, gave so much depth to the experience. Even more exciting—he shared that the larger restaurant is still under construction, and there are plenty of surprises he’s planning to unveil soon.
The concept of hosting his residency inside Frontier Lounge is brilliant. The space itself has such a cool mix—vintage charm with a western edge—that made it a fun and unique setting to enjoy a bowl of ramen.
For just $25 with tip, this meal was worth every penny. I’m so excited to see Frankie’s journey unfold and can’t wait to come back. Wishing Frankie all the success he deserves!

Just left Frankies and had to stop what I’m doing to write a review. This experience was INCREDIBLE!!! The dumplings are good but the ramen is the star of the show. We got the brisket ramen and exceeded all expectations. We even got to speak with Frankie himself and he is the kindest and most down to earth business owner I’ve ever met. You can tell he takes great pride in his food and business. We will absolutely be coming back here and next time with friends! Also loved the killer country music in the bar.

Frankie loves Ramen, and that makes for a lovely bowl of Ramen. We went to Frankie Ramen on a Friday night, and were surprised by a genuinely tasty bowl of Ramen. Frankie’s dedication to the dishes that he serves is outstanding; he even came out to make sure everything was in order and chatted with us about his passion for the delicious food that he makes. Thank you Frankie, we will see you again soon because we loved your Ramen so much.

10 OUT OF 10 – CAN’T GO WRONG
who knew I’d find the best Ramon in Charleston in the back of my favorite bar. Frankie himself is the sweetest, most down to earth man who really gets to know his customers.
Not only is Frankie great but the food is delicious. I usually always go with dumplings and a spicy ramen which is SOOOO flavorful. I just can’t get enough of it
