This place needs a better rating! It is confusing because it has Ramen in their name but all we got was chinese food. We got garlic spinach, beef chow fun, jook, and beef brisket noodles. All delicious! Will come back again

There is a good reason this place rates so low- they deserve it! Again I should have reconsider ordering from here,but they are like 5 minutes from my home and we were in the mood for just pork chow mein and pot stickers,how can that be screwed up? Well who knows as when my husband went to pick it up 35 minutes later as per their request,they didn't know what my order was ,despite knowing my phone number.Part of the reason was,my husband didn't quite pay attention to what I'd ordered,so it was like the blind leading the blind. He arrives home,5o minutes later ,with what looked to me like a single box in a bag.I said " OK u got chow mein and pot stickers in one box? " His answer to everything is " I don't know,they could find your phone number with an order," So I open this ' mystery box' and knew right away,it wasn't what I ordered. It was a very poor version of beef chow fun. The usual flat noodles and thinly sliced beef which is typical for chow fun; their version,uncut ' logs' of unrolled noodles and huge chunks of a braised albeit tender ,hopefully beef! I called and could barely understand the woman on the phone who thought it was very comical that my husband didn't know exactly what he was sent there to pick up and she remembered taking my order but that's not what came out of the kitchen! This is an hour and a half of my life I will never get back - I will gladly stick to ordering from my favorite- - Ming's Chinese on San Mateo ave.,a few miles away. They NEVER disappoint.Ichi Ramen is just taking up valuable real estate!

I have been eating at this place for many years. Love their Pork Liver Congee, string beans ground pork, these two are must get, and there is one thing you must not miss is the Fried Doughnut! Everything is very traditional taste. Sometimes the waiting can be very long, but it makes sense right? Small restaurant, always busy. Appreciate for their hard work.

Called and placed my order. As you know outdoor dining not allowed. Tried the seafood ramen and it was good. Had enough seafood and soup was hot. Ready when we picked up.

I was waiting for my orders today. I saw two of the chefs were not wearing face masks again while they were cooking. I complained last week to the cashier. At this pandemic time, they should be more careful & not to spread virus to protect everyone. The kitchen is so small, but have 5 people inside. I love the food here, but this would be my last time.

This used to be a ramen spot but was taken over by a Chinese restaurant. They kept the name of the ramen restaurant but it's basically the old Hing Lung that used to be in Chinatown. This is my go to spot for porridge! Great flavor and nice and thick consistency. The wonton soup was a little bland and the noodle roll was okay. Food was better when they were in Chinatown! But if you are looking for porridge this is the place to go!

Always great food. Glad to see they're open for take out. Looking forward to going back again.
Went on opening night with the family. We each had a ramen bowl and all four were delicious. The duck bowl broth is like the best lemony chicken broth ever. I had the seafood bowl and the egg in it was especially good. My husband had the spicy, miso bacon bowl and that was incredible- hearty, with an amazing array of layered flavors.

Pretty good, inexpensive, comfort food (chinese style). Looking for congee, roast pork over rice, noodle soup, etc, this is the place for you. Nothing really special but it hits the spot. Not quite sure it's called ichi ramen tho. It's not a Japanese place. In fact I've noticed that many asian eateries in this area are in some type of identity crisis.

A strange name for a restaurant that has excellent Chinese congee. Great congee and is something I would make a special trip for.
