Ramen Ya — Restaurant in Oʻahu

I dont even know how to express what I ate in a review. When a person goes to eat ramen at a restaurant you expect something more than the ramen noodles you find in your own kitchen. The beef had no flavor and reminds me of the steak strips you buy in the freezer aisle. It appears they are literally just microwaved and thrown in the broth.

More value for money! Awesome food, big savory portions! It’s also a family-friendly place! They recently added toys and a stuff toy vending machine for the little ones.

I always order from them either from Uber Eats or in-person at the restaurant for dine-in or take out! Staff is very friendly! I love going to this restaurant. It’s also close to Long’s and Foodland so if you have errands to run, everything is in one...
