Naniwa-Ya Ramen — Restaurant in Honolulu

There are a lot of ramen places out there and each claiming to have some special broth or noodle, but Naniwa-Ya has been around for decades and offers a good selection of ramen to match just about anyone's taste and at a reasonable price. You get a decent size bowl of noodles and toppings swimming in a good broth at a fair price. On top of that it is fast and ready to eat or takeout before you know it. The final nice addition is their add your topping open bar of green onion, fried garlic, and other seasonings that you can help yourself to for that extra bang to your ramen.

I tried the Kimchi Lime ramen and was very pleased with it. Had lots of veggies, so it was a much healthier alternative to the other meat based ramens. I do recommend getting a side of their bamboo shoots to add to it.

SKIP THIS PLACE!! I ordered another place andy wife came here to get ramen. We sat down in front of this place and started eating. She gets halfway through her ramen and saw something something that looked like a bean. She put it on her spoon and it was a roach! Took it to the counter and the lady just seemed like this happens. Didn't seem surprised. She said sorry and she will refund the money. Lady didn't even have the common courtesy to refund the gyozas or her drink. Of the $18 she just have $14 refund back. This is an unsanitary place! I'm assuming no pest control... But they have a "pass" for restaurant inspection. DO...
