Reviews for Kotsu Ramen & Gyoza Portland in Portland, OR
Small eatery inside the martket place, but it was probably the busiest when we went at about 4:15 on a Saturday. We ordered for... 5 and the food took a little longer than I would have thought (30 minutes) with about 3 people ahead of us. Other than that,the menu is pretty basic. I had the Vegan "kick" option. My son had the OG Flame and overall their "hotness" rating was prettyaccurate. The only think I would have liked is to be able to get extra chili sauce if you wanted a spiciness between the kickand the flame. They offer that for an extra charge, which I don't think is right since the bowls themselves are all equallypriced. Read more
Pretty great resturant! I got the takoyaki and the chicken Karaage Bowl. Both were good! The takoyaki had pickled ginger on it... which was different but good. The karaage bowl was a little spicy but it was very good. It was missing the ramen egg which I wasa little sad about. I would order for here again for sure! Read more
Delicious. I moved here from Asia and have been disappointed with some of the Japanese places I?ve been to in Portland but this... one definitely tastes like something I?ve had back home. Read more
Staff is a 5/5! They were all super helpful and so friendly! The food is a 4/5 for my personal tastes. I like noodles with more... chew to them and the noodles in "The Kick" were definitely soft- almost melt in your mouth soft. We ordered a deluxe and theeggs was *chef's kiss* perfect! Broth was packed full of flavor! I ended up dipping everything, even things from other vendors,in the broth! We also got the chicken karaage curry rice bowl. I like more "gravy" with my curry so I was expecting more of agravy vs a sauce drizzle. The chicken was delicious, had a sweet/salty thing going for it. We also had an order of gyoza but mydaughter ate it all before I could try it, so I'm guessing it was delicious since the picky 8year old didn't want to share. Iwish Portland wasn't 2hrs away so I could go back and try more options! Read more
Soup was hot and noodle tasty. A good variation from the normal western burgers and sandwiches.
Absolutely awesome. I got the curry ramen (with pork) & the Brussels sprouts (med. spice) for lunch today, and both were ON... POINT. The Pine Street Market overall was spacious and clean. Would absolutely be returning if I weren?t just here for theweekend. Read more
Kotsu ramen is located inside the Pine street market. I tried the kotsu kick. The food was hot and looks great. The ramen is... good but not exceptional when compared to other places I?ve tried. Read more
A little too salty to me. Really needed to down water after. I also couldn't tell the difference between the spicy ramen and the... curry ramen The pork was STELLAR though. Love the cute set up for takeout. Read more
