RAMEN FACTORY — Restaurant in Old Tappan

Pro : The staffs were very friendly. The place was clean and efficient. Plenty of parking

Con : I had a Spicy Miso Ramen. Perhaps because the soup was vegetable-based... it felt clean, not greasy... yet... not that flavorful. Tasted bland with emphasis on spiciness. Someone mentioned it tasted like Korean YookGaeJang and that was quite accurate description of the broth. It tasted like YookGaeJang without the enrichment of the beef broth. I like spicy food so I had no problem with the ramen being spicy but somehow the whole broth didn't blend that well and was so so. 3 out of 5 at most. The noodle wasn't that good either. It was too thin, the texture was not what I was hoping for... it could be my personal preference but it wasn't type of noodle that made me enjoy ramen. 1.5 out of 5 for the noodle.

I went to try out this place since another reviewer thought this place was better than the one in Closter and Northvale. I totally disagree. Ramen Matsu, in Closter, tasted much more authentic, and better. and then I would rate Northvale ramen place inside the woori market better than Ramen factory.

I may stop by again to give them another try by trying out their chicken/pork based soup ramens... but I really didn't enjoy their noodle so I...

We needed a Ramen spot so bad in this area and they nailed every item on the menu!! Tried the Karagge, crunchy and flavorful not over battered juicy chicken. Pork bun was fluffy, tasteful, light and comforting. Shoyu Ramen was delicious with very bold flavors, Miso Ramen was balanced, spicy and very authentic. Oyakodon or Chicken Rice Bowl was incredible, rice was sticky enough, delicious egg, and sace combination. Also, ordered the marinated egg to add to my rice bowl soooooo good lol. Cant wait to go back to try the rest!!! Wishing this new beautiful business the best of the best! Almost forgot, servers were super sweet and so on top of things. Tea...

We had three appetizers: Pork Bun (the roasted pork and cabbage on the warm bun were delightful), Karaage (served with two sauces; the brined thigh meat was tender, and the fried skin was crisp), and Pan-Fried Dumplings (soft on the top and perfectly golden brown on the bottom, with a very satisfying filling). For ramen, we chose Shoyu Ramen and Spicy Miso Ramen. Both featured flavorful yet not overly salty broths and well-roasted thick cuts of pork. The seaweed, wood ear mushrooms, and bamboo shoots balanced beautifully with the noodles. Additionally, the aftertaste of all the dishes was clean. The service, interior, and cleanliness were...
