Nishikawa Ramen

Nishikawa Ramen is a solid spot if you’re craving ramen in Phoenix. The broth has good flavor, I will say the portions are pretty big in my opinion . The noodles were cooked well, and the toppings were fresh. While it may not be the absolute best ramen I’ve ever had, it definitely hits the spot and is worth trying. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable, and the staff was friendly during my visit. Service was steady, and overall it was a good dining experience. I’d come back when I’m in the mood for a warm bowl of ramen.

I had a good overall experience at this place. The person taking our order was polite, patient, and attentive, and made sure that we were served only vegetarian food, which I really appreciated. They took the order calmly, explained things well, and ensured there was no confusion, which made the experience comfortable and welcoming. The place has a nice and relaxed vibe, making it a good spot to sit, chat, and enjoy a meal—especially if you’re in the mood for ramen. The food tasted fresh and well prepared, and everything we ordered was enjoyable. The ambiance, service, and food together made for a pleasant visit. Overall, it was a good dining experience, and I would recommend this place if you’re looking for a vegetarian-friendly spot with a good atmosphere.

We visited Nishikawa Ramen in the late evening and we were simply blown away!! I had the Tonkatsu Ramen and my dining partner had the Shoyu Ramen and both were very delicious. We shared the Vegetable Croquettes as well, and everything was absolutely delicious. The portions were gigantic and you could tell everything was extremely fresh. The croquettes were creamy and crispy, the ramen was packed with goodies. We will definitely be visiting again, and you should do the same!

This is a pretty good place for ramen that I would recommend. Their appetizers are awesome. We ordered the chicken karage, fried squid legs, and gyoza. Everything was fried perfectly and tasty. The ramen soup was good. I would say they aren't spicy enough but other than that, it's pretty good! They also have old school anime playing on the tv!

After shopping at IKEA in Tempe we decided to drive all the way to NishiKawa to dine in. First time and I was very impressed with the service, food and location. It felt like I was in Japan again eating at a shokodo. Authentic and simply Japan style.
