Just had some amazing Ramen here, seriously the noodles and broth were top-notch! The decor is super cool, totally decked out in an anime style that’s a real treat for fans. Service was really quick and everyone was so friendly, which made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back for more of this deliciousness. It’s a must-try for any Ramen lover!

I’ve been coming here for years and the taste is the same delicious. It’s a very well made ramen menu and the taste is so good, the broth is perfectly cooked and creamy the spice levels are a nice choice for people who like the same broth but want have different tolerance to spicy food.

We ordered the spicy miso ramen and Tokyo spicy ramen. Miso ramen was a little bland but the Tokyo spicy was amazing. Gyoza was good too but I would pass on the kimchi next time. Overall, good prices and great atmosphere. Nothing to rave over IMO but will definitely return if in the area

I’m going to start just letting you know I’ve had the best ramen in the world…in Austin, name to be withheld. Since moving to San Antonio I have now been to 4 ramen restaurants and Austin’s rendition of ramen is still leading the pack. BUT…Ito so far is leading my SA rating for pretty good, not my GREAT rating.
I tried the hakata ramen (no corn, no onions, extra egg, extra mushrooms.) My critique…first, it was pretty spicy. Second, the broth was rich but lacked memorable flavor. Third, everything else was as expected. Fourth, the quaint little restaurant reminded me of a great place to meet a special friend or first date; clean, quiet, blah blah blah. Fifth, to the chipper guy behind the counter…you got my order right. Thanks for double checking. Good job. Stay kind.

This has been my favorite ramen place so far in SA. The atmosphere is inviting. The food is amazing & the staff is friendly. I always get “The hell” — level 2 spice level. I tried level 3, but it was tooo hot had me in there making a scene lmao. I learned my lesson. Whoever gets level 5, more power to you. The broth is soooo good. I don’t understand folks who don’t drink it but on the other hand I know the sodium in it is through the roof. Nonetheless I don’t eat it all the time but there was a time period where I couldn’t stay away. I think about this place often. lol So had to come back and give a rating. Oh, the egg rolls are delicious as well. Last thing I will add, is that these people know their worth. They can be a bit pricy compared to serving size, but you genuinely pay for what you get. I’ve gone to other ramen places who just about overfilled the bowl, the price was cheap but it didn’t taste that great. So I get it! Can’t wait to visit again.

Dropped in and ordered seaweed salad and Shio Seafood Ramen. The interior was decorated in manga style. Music in the background was easy listening Japanese. Seating areas were mostly clean. Food came out in short time. Seaweed salad was prepared nicely and had good authentic flavor. The ramen was nice and hot and the aroma was good. Looking down at my bowl of ramen, it looked like the ingredients were just dumped and not full mixed. I did the mixing my self and tasted. After tasting I could tell everything in my bowl was excellent quality and the flavors were wonderful. Overall I enjoyed eating here.

Ramen tasted amazing, I recommend getting the spicy ramen. Tried both level 4 and 5 spicy ramen but they tasted similar and they weren’t really hot at all. It is a chill place to hang out at and the decor for this place is really cool. The matcha drink tasted like it came from the instant boba packs that usually has no strong tasting matcha and is usually a little artificial but it was still good nonetheless. Service was also great.

I must say that this is a place we stumbled on and it was a great find. The ambience is very fun and friendly. You order up front and pick up your food. Though very small, it is a very personable space. Because it’s compact, you may have to sit with someone you don’t know and they state that. However they bring a positive perspective as to you may meet a new friend there.
The food… omg what can I say.
I got the Hell Spicy Ramen. It did not disappoint. It had a couple different levels of spiciness. I got the 4 as I like a little heat but still want to enjoy the flavor. I can say while the heat was up there for my taste. I can say the ramen had bold and savory flavors. I couldn’t stop eating the broth despite being a little too spicy for me. I still thought it was amazing. I will try the level 3 next time.
My kids got the shoyu and tonkotsu and those were very flavorful as well. All three had a marinated egg that was by far one of the bests that I had. Everyone in my party loved theirs. I overheard someone order and they requested an extra egg as well. I told my oldest son and he agreed that next time he would do the same and request an extra as well.
Talked to the owner as we left and she was friendly as well. Told her we had a great experience and would be back.
In a town that sometimes finding Asian flavors is tough compared to Chicago, LA, Houston or Austin. I would say that this place does amazing and I am sure they would do great in areas like those.

My boyfriend and I come here almost every time I come and visit. We love this place so much. The food is amazing and flavorful and the atmosphere is perfect. We love the decorations as well, the anime stickers are great! We started collected the business cards you have in the front and we have tried other places in Texas trying to find some other ramen place. But they just never compare to Ito Ramen! ❤️❤️
