Reviews for Ramen 101 in Vacaville, CA

The service is fairly friendly, but not a big fan of the food here. I came on a Saturday night. It wasn't too crowded and we... were able to find seats. It's an order at the cashier and find a seat type of restaurant. I ordered the Tonkatsu Ramen (mediumspice), which came out in <5 minutes, but it was bland compared to ones I had in the Bay. The Vegetable Tempura was okay, butnothing to write home about. The seasoning just didn't seem to exist on either of the dishes so I can't say they complementedeach other. Overall, I can't say I'd come back since I don't visit Vacaville often. It could just be a miss for tonight. Read more

Had a craving for ramen again and stopped by. Not a fan. Should have been alert when I was asked how spicy I wanted my... tonkotsu. First restaurant to ever offer that option outside a miso or salt ramen. Medium is barely noticeable on an Easternscale. The tonkotsu ramen broth flavor was watered-down and only warm. I had to take a mouthful of broth to find the hint ofpork, or what I'm used too, and it has no thickness to it. Definitely not a thick bone broth. The egg looks right, but theyoke was cold in the middle. Charsiu was pretty good. Fast service, average size portion for America. Read more

Surprisingly good ramen. We stopped on our way back from Truckee and we?re not disappointed. The chashu was tender and... flavorful. Would definitely go again! Read more

Wanted to try this place out and so glad we did. We ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen, Agedashi Tofu and Kaki Fry. Everything was... delicious. The broth was perfect, not too salty. I chose mild for the heat level and it was just a perfect kick to my broth. Read more

We stopped by for dinner on our way from Tahoe. The restaurant was crowded. If you want to eat at their outside tables you need... to order To Go. The ramen was simply amazing from the broth to all the ingredients. The portioning is more than enough. Theselection of appetizers was great. We ordered lumping and grilles squid. I would prefer less of sweet sauce over it, but it wasdelicious. Read more

We stopped in yesterday on a whim after Googling ?Ramen near me? and I?m so glad we found this place. The service was fast and... the ramen was EXCELLENT. I had the black garlic ramen and my partner had the tonkatsu ramen. I can?t wait to go back again. Itis a little on the pricey side, but you get really big portions and great quality food in a fast casual setting. There?s notmuch seating so a few outside tables would be great?and a cold beer would?ve paired so well with the Ramen, but they don?t servealcohol as far as I noticed. We will be back soon!

Great food (perfect flavor-see pictures of the food we ordered). Fast service. A bit pricey (then $11, now $14-$15? price jacked... up after opening approximately 3mos ago and ordered extra broth but male person-maybe or possible owner behind counter chargedme for $5? c?mon). Recommendation: -Bring the appetizer first bfor main course. -Need condiments on side of tables. -Needoutdoor chairs/tables set up due to space too small inside. Read more

We heard about this place via word of mouth from co-workers and decided to check it out. We were going togo at night but heard... they didnt have many tables and sometimes there is a wait for the dinner rush. We waited and went the next day for lunch at 3p.m. no wait time. Was very good! Portions were good and the broth was very flavorful. Service was excellent. Food came outof the kitchen in a timely manner and the whole family enjoyed it! Will definitely be going back! I want to try some of theHawaiian dishes Read more
