Mugen Noodle Bar

The food was great. The service could be better. Very hurried. The food is good. I agree with others who posted a bit pricy for noodles but it’s Hood River.

I'm glad that Hood River has a ramen option but I don't find it to be amazing or good value. I got the black garlic ramen with extra pork and it was nearly $30 after tax and tip. The broth is very mild. Perfect if you like mild things. I go here once every few years.

Came in out of the rain to steaming pots and a clean simple layout. Greeted on entry, one long bar style seating. Grabbed a menu and had a seat. Ordered a pot of tea. Cups for tea and water line the back of the bar. Ordered the Ramen, Tori Paitan, with a side of hot chili oil. Very good broth and mix of toppings. Broth was complex, hearty and a perfect counter to the cold rain. Stand out toppings for me were the bamboo, fresh sprouts, egg and shasu. Will definitely go again. UPDATE: came for a short meeting with others, warning seating only full parties so arrive as close together as possible. Enjoyed tori paitan again, though I should taste around the menu, I enjoy it too much.

This is my second time coming to Mugen Noodle Bar and my experience hasn’t changed. Absolutely LOVE the theme of a ramen bar, the owner is incredibly nice and helpful, plus they just introduced sushi to their menu! (Saturdays only from what I believe.) My BF and I got the curry and shoyu ramen. I absolutely love it here. I’ll definitely be making this a regular spot to revisit.

Mugen Noodle Bar is so cool! This place is a little slice of Japan complete with a gorgeous wooden noodle bar (outside seating available as well). Theres a great variety of dishes and beverages. The staff are warm & friendly and the prices are fair. But, the food? 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 I've tried several other ramen places, but Mugen wins the gold medal! Try em out! Two more tips: their spicy dishes can taste somewhat mild for you lovers of 🌶🌶🌶. That means if you want more heat ask for a side of their chili sauce. That also means means don't be afraid to try a dish if its marked as spicy. Also they don't do doordash & such (most likely because delivery ramen is never as good as fresh from the pot!)
