The best place to get authentic ramen in the Twin Cities! The environment is cozy, and the staff has always been friendly. The ramen itself is great, with the broth being delicious and the pork being super tender and full of flavor. I’m always a sucker for good gyoza too, and here it’s great!There’s honestly not much else to say - this is a great no-nonsense place to grab a bowl of authentic ramen. Will definitely be visiting again!

4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ OVRR ALL & possibly more if compared to local similar.If you are seriously considering this review to help you to form an informed decision; than you must know that I rarely, rarely give 5⭐️'s only because I can always imagine improvements...that's just me.Tenkka Ramen?If you are an average American the sign and name should peak your curiosity and maybe rattle your senses to prepare them to try something new.Bottom-line....Simply good food, prepared well with noparticularly notable highlights other than the atmosphere and ambiance being a bit more upscale than expected.**No offense at all Tenka Ramen', This is a kudos to you for straightforward good meal. KUDOS! (and thank you).~JohnKid-friendliness: If your kids like you they will probably like eating here with you. Others, I don't know what to tell youWheelchair accessibility: Yes. Up to code and generously accommodating where possible.( I managed and supervised large commercial contstruction builds and became well versed in ADHA standards- if you questioned my credentials on that last one?).
Best Ramen this side of the Pacific? No. Yes, they have Sriracha bottles on their tables, but that's obviously because of customers. It's certainly worth checking out if you're in the neighborhood and wanting some ramen.

Since I'm staying in Minneapolis for a few weeks for work, I wanted to try out some new restaurants. I found Tenka off reddit when looking up quality Ramen establishments, and Tenka did not disappoint. The lady at the cash register was extremely pleasant and the food came extremely fast. Albeit, I visited at about 3pm and the place was suprisingly empty. But the food was delicious. I had the chicken karaage and the tonkatsu ramen. The pork belly was tender and delicious and the chicken karaage was amazing. I spent just under $25 for this and a can of pop.Unfortunately the city hasn't taken care of the streets outside of the restaurant with the garbage and the homeless.. this place deserves a nice inviting storefront.
Best chicken/pork belly sandwich in the city refreshing Boba superior customer service great for takeout or dine in. Bonus program the owner remembers your order! Love her
Tried this place because of the spectacular reviews and was equally disappointed. The tonkatsu broth was watery and smelled of barn yard. The appetizer was not great. The chicken karage was very gingery and dry, although the dipping sauce helped. The service was the only good part. If you are looking for authentic ramen or even good ramen, this is not it.

Our carry out order was packaged carefully and it was DELICIOUS!! We had the spicy miso and the Torisho ramens. I preferred the spicy broth (it’s hot though so be careful!) The Japanese buns were also delicious. Also, the lady who got order was

The pork belly is amazing and the customer service is excellent. Their ramen really hit the spot on a single-digit Minneapolis winter day. Highly recommend!
