Came lunchtime on a Sunday. Ricky was on point with his service. Pikachu Pucker is a delicious Sour beer brewed in house. Appetizer sampler was incredible. Lots of crunch and freshness. The Tokyo Ramen has a delicious clear broth that heals something in the soul. Great vibes. Great food. Great service! 10/10 would recommend

A cold days remedy…delicious crafted ramen! Our first visit at the new location and happy to say the food is as delicious as always, the space is way nicer and more upscale with tables & high tops nestled into cozy nooks as well as a wall rail and bar service so there is plenty of seating. The service is friendly and fast. Definitely a step up in decor and a steadfast commitment to quality, flavor and presentation. Put west Brew Izakaya on your list…you will be glad that you did.

We will be back!!!! We may or may not bring the kids. Great ramen and typical izakaya foods. Oishi I feel like I am back in Roppongi. Best ramen I have had outside of Japan. Ricky was great with the beer and drink choices.

Used to go to the other location before they moved and loved the atmosphere there, but this new location is even better - love the more mature vibe while still having the root ties to anime and Japanese culture. The food was just as amazing as last time and the appetizer bento box was a great way to have all your favourite apps in one place. Our server Rikki was friendly and always checked in on us while we were there. Would recommend for anyone looking for a spot to get away and get some great food!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Kevin McFarland · Nov 2025

Ramen that isn’t college microwaved? Yes, please. Somehow these noodles and broth made me feel like an actual adult who knows what they’re doing. Beer selection = happy craft enthusiasts. Tried 8 of 11 taps, and the maple porter became an instant favorite. Dessert in a glass, but you know, adult-style. Decor and seating? Totally on point, it was comfy, stylish, and zero awkward table jockeying. Service was friendly, with a tiny “wait, who ordered what?” moment, but honestly it just added a little comedy to our evening. Overall: great beer, amazing ramen, chill vibes, and enough charm to make me want to come back next time I’m in the area. Ramen game officially upgraded.
