Ramen Umai- University City

Ramen Umai is always my go-to. The seasonal menu is a hit! Must try the crab & meat pot, wagyu matsusaka, and seafood appetizers! A

This is a really great cheap-ish spot for a meal. We got two bowls of ramen, four spicy chicken wings, and two orders of mochi for less than $40. Food came out quickly and was delicious. The round chashu was slightly superior to the chashu pork shoulder. Highly recommend ending the meal with a little serving of mochi. It was the perfect treat after the warmth and strong flavors of dinner. We went around 8PM. It was busy but not packed. YOU SHOULD GO HERE!

Food was soooo good! Really Glad they opened up in town! The soup of the black garlic ramen was especially good. Chashu just melts in your mouth and the chicken karaage is the best chicken nuggets I’ve had in a long time! It’s got a nice warm ambience that reminds you of the midnight diner in Japan. Perfect for winter! Oh and, unbeatable price for SO MUCH FOOD, just Wow.

Come here religiously and finally have enough points for a free ramen. I only ever order their non pork ramen and I can’t even use my points for that. Waitress says she’ll change it then they don’t and they’re not going to make a new one. what’s the point of your loyalty program and spending $100s of dollars on your food for the free reward only to not be able to use it for any thing i actually eat at your restaurant? make it make sense. I was also sitting there for like 30 minutes with no water so yeah. normally i have great things to say about this place but the loyalty program is a load of BS if you don’t eat pork ramen. Like I’m obviously not your only customer but the night staff hasn’t seen but i’m here ALL THE TIME. and you couldn’t make an exception a dietary restriction so it was

HANDS DOWN BEST RAMEN IN THE CITY. The pork was melting in my mouth. The tonkatsu broth is yummy. The service is lovely. Just an amazing amazing experience. Will definitely be back again. Haven't had ramen this good since San Francisco. This place is a MUST. And a nice portion size. And the price was very very affordable for 2 people. $36 before tip. With edamame and sparkling flavor soda. Soooo good. Like pop your tongue good. Smoke a cigarette after and I don't even smoke. Just delicious
