Reviews for Hachidori Ramen Bar in Miami, FL
The sticky buns are an absolute MUST have. They’re probably amongst the best I’ve had, though I must say the addition of the... salted miso butter made everything a tad too salty. A great start to the meal nonetheless. The ramen itself did everythingright - pork belly was perfectly marinated and I loved how it was crisp around the edges. Egg was also perfectly marinated andvegetable toppings were fresh and crunchy. I got the small OG tonkotsu, which was rich and creamy, and my husband got theregular sized shoyu. Overall, a solid bowl of ramen, though I did feel the broths were a little too salty and it’s unclear tome if the ramen noodles were fresh. Price point was also a little higher than I’m used to to for ramen and sake, but may justbe due to rising costs in the area overall. They do have some happy hour starter options on weekdays until 7pm. Service was alsovery good and the restaurant felt very welcoming. Read more
As a ramen enthusiast I was disappointed in both food and service. It seems likely that no one on staff actually has in-depth... knowledge on how to make authentic ramen. I feel conned out of a $100 meal. Wait service You order and check out via app sothere’s no formal wait service. Although the staff encourages you to ask them questions about the menu, we had to get upseveral times to the bar to ask questions. Menu We saw the hokaiddo cheese tarts and charred miso eggplant on Google and thewaitstaff had never even heard of eggplant on the menu (half the reason why we were convinced to come). They were also out a lotof items including spicy salmon and the cheese tarts???? Food Overall extremely overpriced and underwhelming. My partner and Igot the fried chicken baos, the Japanese street corn, shoyu ramen and tantanmen ramen. All the dishes were dull anduninspired. The baos were lackluster. The fried chicken was barely crunchy and the sauce was kinda tangy but had none of theumami flavors you usually get with Japanese izakaya despite this being a chicken dish. The corn was tiny in serving. Itwasn’t bad. But nothing about it was Japanese. Basically just queso fresco cheese and corn— not worth it at all. The shoyusoup tasted watery and the tonkotsu equally lacked depth in flavor. The noodles barely had any bite and were a little mushy bythe time they got to us. Our ramen also just took forever and the soup did not come out hot. Tbh we walked in during a Fridayevening and it wasn’t busy at all but regardless, the kitchen seemed like a mess (there’s an open kitchen). 2 stars insteadof one because the ambience was ok.

Literally the best bao buns I've ever tried! A little spicy but perfectly balanced with fresh veggies and fried chicken. Ramen... was good, too. I've asked for the lightest broth, so it was not as flavorful as regular tonkotsu ramen. But to me it was perfect- with delicious pork and marinated egg. Read more
Minimalistic space with a good selection of ramen. The O.G was interesting, but could be a bit too hearty for some. The shujo... and tantanmen were good. I recommend this spot for some good ramen in Miami. Read more
The flavors were out of this world on Ramen, seriously the best so far, the spice, the deliciousness, everything about it... screamed an experience in your mouth. The staff very attentive and kind. Had an amazing time thank you. Read more
This is a late review :) I came here last year when it was fairly new to the area. It was lunchtime and they had just recently... launched a lunch menu. Not sure if they are still offering this but I opted for the Ramen Lunch Set which is a choice of ramenand comes with a rice bowl, ginger salad, gyozas, or shishito peppers. The ramen I selected was their signature OG which isTonkotsu and miso broth with cured pork belly. It was very tasty and the medium spice level was perfect for me. The noodles hada nice snap and the pork was very tender. The rice bowl and gyoza were pretty good too. This is a cute ramen shop in thegentrified little Haiti. Clean and modern dining room and the food is decent. Again, I'm not sure if they're still offeringlunch but I would come to try their dinner items. Read more
This place was nice, and my waitress was extremely helpful, and honest. She made recommendations based on what I told her I... liked. My table had the Izakaya Starters: Umami Sticky Bun, and the Bao Buns both Pork Belly & Fried Chicken. These starterswere the bomb! They are on the pricey side, I just wish you got three instead of two. You will taste the herbs and spices usedin this culture with an American culture twist. We also had the Shoyu The Money Ramen. I personally didn't care for it, itwasn't for me, but my party loved theirs; they're into Ramen anyway I suppose. We dined outside, but the ambiance of therestaurant is perfect if you want to dress up and have a nice night out with your sweetie or with dear friends. The restroomswere impeccable! Overall, I would recommend this place if you're into ramen. Read more
This spot is so cute! I wish I could give it 4.5 instead of 4 but it’s not an option. Our starter, the fried chicken, was... really tasty. The breading was seasoned really well and the wasabi mayo dipping sauce paired with it perfectly. We ordered themushroom fried rice which was extremely creamy and more akin to a risotto. It was super flavourful and rich. A big servingeasily shared between 2 or 3 people. We couldn’t finish it and took about half home. Would highly recommend. They said tonightwas the first night it had been ordered and we were the first ones to try it. We’d order it again! For my ramen I got aRakata Tonkotsu. The broth was very fishy and overpowering. I really didn’t like it. But the egg was perfectly cooked and Icould have eaten a whole dozen. The pork belly was really nice and not chewy at all. Noodles were great, just can’t get overthe broth. Did I order the wrong one? Everyone on here is raving about it!! I’m more than happy to go back and try anotherone! The service was excellent and I can’t say enough good things. Read more
