Hiro Ramen — Restaurant in Ashland

I have eaten here dozens of times. This evening I was delightfully treated by the server girl who has been here this last year.

She has always been so kind though her service this evening really topped the literal cake. From the moment I casually mentioned it was my birthday, she took extra care kindly saying happy birthday multiple times, treating me with Tea & mochi without even being requested.

I was so pleasantly surprised by her service and care, she was so intentional and I hope the owner sees that they have an amazing gal up front.

Thank you guys for your love, service and amazing food. I will always be a long standing fan of this place.

Food, environment & service has always felt so good to me.

I am very appreciative for how my birthday dinner turned out and am so glad I waited all day for them to be open again for dinner.😍

I hope this girl gets a raise because she deserves it.

Thank you, again & may many blessings...

A hole in the wall, but without the broth to back it up. Every good ramen place is graded by the strength of their broth, and not necessarily the decor or atmosphere. All you care about are intense, rich flavors drawn out of the pork bones with a jab of salty/umami greatness right in the jaw. This place didn’t make the cut. I ordered the tonkotsu ramen with pork. The noodles were good and the slice of pork was tasty, albeit briefly (small portion). The broth unfortunately was watery, bland, generically creamy, and not well-seasoned.

The menu had plenty of Korean options. The galbi appetizer was the highlight of the meal. The seared rib meat was deliciously caramelized, gingery, and hot, right off the grill.

Overall I am not excited to go back because, like I said, if you want to be a hole in the wall, the food needs to be a slam dunk. I’m appreciative to have this option locally, but it didn’t knock...

I avoid restaurants usually as I have numerous allergies and I genuinely hate to be a burden. Went with a friend who was excited for me because they have gluten free noodles. Once I ordered I was informed that the broth was made with soy sauce that contains wheat. What's the point of having GF noodles if you don't have that option for broth? Not a big deal, I was hungry so I ordered rice and plain steamed vegetables. The kid waiting on us said they used sesame oil on the veggies. I asked if he could leave that off. Was told ok. The food arrived for my girlfriend and our friend and nothing for me. The kid told me I shouldn't have come into an Asian restaurant if I was allergic to sesame and they would not provide me with rice and plain steamed vegetables. I'm fairly certain that line was fed to him by the owner who was back in the kitchen. Great way to run your...
