Fantastic place to grab some noodles! I had the spicy tonkotsu and the broth was thick, creamy and delicious! Plus, the service was speedy and the food isn't expensive, especially for the quality.Instead of stopping at McDonald's, definitely give this place a try!

ramen is very delicious . hot sake good. however, the shrimp shamai is 5 small pieces for $4.50 i think that’s expensive. you should give 6-8 for that price or lower the price to $3.50

The takoyaki is so bomb. It comes out in the skillet and is the best I’ve ever had. The ramen came out kinda weirdly. I got the Tsukemen ramen. The soup was on the side but maybe that’s just because I’m not used to it this way. The flavor was very good but not spicy at all. My only complaint was that there wasn’t enough broth. The noodles are amazing and felt freshly made. They were the perfect chewiness. The karaage wasn’t really worth it because there were only like 6 little pieces. Service was great and everyone was very kind. Make sure u get the extra round of noodles for only $1.50. They gave me a very big bowl!

Great ramen place with rich flavors. The decor was also cute and the ambiance was casual but still felt nice. We had the takoyaki to start off which was piping hot but crispy and delicious. The noodles itself was tasty, it was chewy and absorbed the broth well. It’s a affordable place with lots to offer.

Was in the area and had this place on my list of places to try. The service was great, even though I believe the servers were not native speakers they did very well communicating in Japanese.One thing I really liked about this place is the ask you if you want your noodles regular, semi hard, like al dente or hard. I've been to a lot of ramen places in America that by the time you get your ramen the noodles are already near soggy.I wouldn't travel just to eat at this place but if you are it's worth giving a try.

Today was my first time visiting the restaurant. We wanted something different and we found it at Monta Ramen. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was inviting. The staff was execellent. We didn't have to wait to be seated. Since this was our first time, the waiter kindly explained the menu items. I will become a frequent visitor. My out-of-town guest love it and she is 11 years old.

Definitely looking forward to going here regularly and trying all the different toppings. I got Tokatsu with pork and bean sprouts. It was the first time I've had creamy broth, and it was so delicious. Everything tasted really fresh, and it was filling and satisfying!

Used to work in Vegas with a bunch of other people from Hawai’i and Monta was where we got our ramen fix. It’s the closest thing to places back home, and in Japan. They are one of the few traditional Japanese ramen spots in Dallas that cook down pork bones and make everything from scratch. Super stoked to have Monta here! They also have a relationship to Izakaya Mr. Max, and supposedly they are going to expand to an izakaya menu!Also add their fried rice and fried chicken to your ramen as a combo! Such a great value and super worth it!

I visited here last week for the first time and has Tonkotsu ramen. The broth was creamy and noodles were cooked perfectly. The service was great, and my waiter was very friendly. Nice interior and family friendly.

When I entered the restaurant, I was greeted fairly quickly. I was asked where I'd like to sit for service. There were a few people in the restaurant already. I was served drinks and food quickly. I ordered a Spicy Curry Ramen bowl with Black Garlic Oil. The portions were quite large for the price I paid, and I was full after eating.The broth had a kick to it and was very flavorful. The potatoes were a little undercooked, but overall the other vegetables and noodles were cooked well. I recommend this place!
Delicious! Confession, my first Ramen experience. But! It was wonderful. The flavor was amazing. The velvety broth was unforgetable. The pork was amazing. The service seemed a bit stretched. They may have been short staffed. This will be the benchmark for future Ramen adventures.

The veggie ramen was delicious, and the kimchi fried rice was good. They were cash only when we were there, but I wasn't sure if they are always cash only. The food all came out at different times, and we had to ask for the check because it was taking so long. But the employees were very nice, and I'd go back for the excellent food.

First time having black garlic broth. This place gave me a great first black garlic experience. Lights are dim, making the eating experience so much more calming. Do wish they have more variety of ramen BUT Would visit again. Great place

Excellent dinner at Monta Ramen! Lovely cozy, calm but lively atmosphere.The staff were pleasant and helpful.The vegetarian broth was light and not overly salty, with plenty of greens, tasty tofu and flavorful vegetables.I asked for an egg in it, and it was just perfect.Spicy edamame appetizer was scrumptious!

One of the best tsukemen I ever had! The broth is very thick, full of Umami, and noodle texture match with the broth so well. Staffs are very friendly too. Will come back!
