🍜 Cozy Japanese Ramen Spot in McKinney

Tucked away on a quiet corner in McKinney, Kuma Ramen may be small, but it wins over passersby with its light yet flavorful bowls, a warm host, and walls filled with playful ramen-themed art. 🏮 Vibe & Ambiance The space is clean, bright, and neatly arranged. The wall art stands out—on the left near the entrance, a giant whale swimming in the ocean brings a soothing touch, while the right wall is covered with ramen-themed anime illustrations, including a particularly charming one of Ultraman enjoying a bowl of noodles! 👩‍🍳 Service & Hospitality Only one staff member was working (likely the owner)—friendly and welcoming. She asked if it was our first visit and how we found the place, smiling as she shared, “We’ve been here for 5 years!” 🍲 What We Tried ✨ Tonkotsu Ramen｜$12.49 Broth is light yet flavorful, not overly rich; noodles cooked just right; chashu tender, seasoned well; egg perfectly soft-boiled. ✨ Spicy Ramen｜$12.99 Gentle heat that enhances rather than overwhelms the broth—great for those who enjoy a mild kick. ✨ Dragon Roll｜$14.95 Fresh eel and avocado on top, wrapped around crispy fried shrimp; sushi rice soft and well-textured. 💰 Value & Impression Ramen prices are very reasonable compared to many specialty shops; Flavors are balanced, not heavy or greasy; Sushi uses fresh ingredients at fair prices. 📍 Kuma Ramen 5121 Collin McKinney Pkwy Ste 800, McKinney, TX 75070 (Recommend checking hours—small shops may close occasionally.) #McKinney#McKinneylife#McKinneytravel#travelguide#foodguiide#McKinneyfood#DallasMcKinney#Texas
