Hachiren — Restaurant in Yomitan

My review is both for dine-in and take-out as this is our Ramen place in all of Okinawa. My daughter refuses to go anywhere else and if you ask her for the best Ramen place, her only answer will be Hachiren. Place is located on the 3rd floor of the community building besides JA Yomitan. Their base is so porky and their charsiu pork is super delish. The all star ramen for me is enough but I also love their spicy version.

That being said, what do you expect from a high traffic, high rent tourist trap struggling with inflationary pressures, staffed by 4 guys that's only open for a few hours per day? The taste was fantastic, though. I'm good for...

We've only lived in Okinawa a short time but we quickly found our favorite Ramen restaurant! Hachiren Ramen is located in a cute community center, quietly tucked in a corner room of the third floor. They have a simple menu that has been kindly translated to English and their ordering machine also has an English option. We are always greeted with enthusiasm and seated quickly. The ramen comes piping hot to the table directly from the kitchen. The broth is creamy, the noodles perfectly al dente, and all the optional accoutrements add to the delicious meal. We ate there again today and I'll already thinking about when we...
