Got the 3pc karage and small salad to share. I appreciate that they have smaller portions! I thought the salad was supposed to... have chashu but it came with tofu cubes instead, which was a bummer (maybe I misread that small size is tofu or they made amistake). I got the shio ramen, which was good but pretty average - not sure if it's worth $17.80. Read more

Unlike other Ramen restaurants, Orenchi has a shorter line which is a blessing. The menu has choices of appetizers, Ramen types,... and desserts to make everyone happy. We had akadashi tofu, edamame, and shishito peppers. They were all delicious, and largesized. We had two orenchi Ramen with different toppings, and a vegan Ramen. All good. The vegan Ramen has crumbles of fake meatwhich are totally unnecessary. The service is ok, you have to work to get the staff's attention. And, the two men in the frontseem to be allergic to humans.

The Vegan curry ramen was pretty good and filling. Also ordered the eggplant Tempura which was a nice vegetarian... appetizer. Good choice of vegetarian options and the taste was good and the service was nice. There was just 5 minutes waittime and we were seated quickly. Will recommend this place and I'll visit again!

Post COVID-19, their menu has changed. Ordered a special and 2 chicken ramen bowls. Chicken - meat was tender, however the broth... was kind of tasteless. Pork - this was the special. It was good. Quantity wise, one bowl is enough for a person. Read more

I got the seasonal noodles and the flavors were POPPING. My friend got the steak rice bowl and the sear looked stunning. Can’t... go wrong with a pitcher of beer for two as well, right? Flexible food and drink menu with veggie options as well. Octopusdumplings are something else!! Read more

The ramen is good. You get a whole egg (instead of the half egg in some places). But I think the egg is kind of too soft. Of... course, it’s a personal preference. But I just don’t like super soft egg. Most of places are not that soft. Service is goodtoo. But when I got the check, it shown a 15% service fee was on the bill without any words from the waitress. It’s totallyunderstandable, but it would be nice if I got informed so I would not possibly pay double tips. During pandemic time, somerestaurants asked customers to support them by paying service fee so they explicitly told us so we would leave tips on top ofthat. But that seems not the case today since I did not receive any such words from them. Read more

You cannot make reservation online. So we went there on a Friday night and waited for about 30 minutes. The food is about... average. The Romain especially the Curry Tantan one is too salty for me. The waitress is pretty nice. But they don’t have hotwater at all in the restaurant. so I would say overall an average experience. Read more
Excellent takoyaki, crispy outer layer and sofy-chewy inside. I was expecting for more creamy and savory tonkotsu broth, Ramen... is just alright. Ambiance: Good Food: Good Service: Good Read more
