The View From Space

Having been a steady customer since it opened, I finally decided it was time to blog about the dining experience at one of my favorite Ramen shops, Ichiben.

Located in Waimalu, this slightly hidden ramen shop offers a cozy nook where you can have a nice lunch or dinner. 

The staff there is wonderful, they are attentive and very accomodating.   In fact the owner/cook makes it a point to come out and talk with the customers on a regular basis.  They make you feel welcome and very comfortable eating there.

The food is, quite simply, very good.  The ramen is simple but delicious and is offered with 3 different types of broths (shoyu, miso, paitan).   The other offerings (Chicken, Kal bi, fried rice) are tasty without being overly salty or “over spiced”.   The best way to describe the food is clean and fresh with natural tastiness (is that even a word?).

Here’s my review on Yelp.  You can also see others there too.  They rate a 4 out of 5 stars.
