Outbreak Ramen has managed to do the seemingly impossible: create a ramen experience that is both comforting and exhilarating. The moment you step into this vibrant eatery, you're immersed in a world of rich aromas and infectious enthusiasm.
The menu is a tantalizing journey through various ramen styles, each one a testament to the chefs' passion and expertise. The Tonkotsu, a creamy, pork-based broth, is a symphony of flavors that dances on the palate. The noodles, perfectly al dente, provide the ideal texture to complement the rich broth. For those seeking a fiery adventure, the Spicy Miso is a must-try. The balance of heat and umami is simply sublime.
But it's not just the ramen that shines at Outbreak. The accompanying sides are equally impressive. The gyoza, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, is a perfect appetizer. And don't forget to save room for dessert – the matcha ice cream is a refreshing and delightful conclusion to the meal.
Outbreak Ramen is more than just a restaurant; it's a destination. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a casual meal or a celebratory gathering. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate about their craft, and it shows in every interaction.

Read moreDuring our self-guided food and bar crawl of West Bend’s Main Street, The Outbreak came highly recommended by several locals and bartenders as the perfect final stop — and they couldn’t have been more right! The ramen and potstickers were said to be the ideal end to the evening, and wow, they absolutely were.
The space itself is spotless, unique, and totally up my alley. Despite the apocalyptic theme, the atmosphere is warm, casual, and welcoming, with a fun cocktail menu to match. Our bartender was super friendly and made us feel right at home.
Drinks: We tried the Yuzu Sour (honey liqueur, melon, yuzu lemonade purée, and sour soda) and the London Fog White Russian (vanilla vodka, Kahlúa, chilled Earl Grey tea, and cream). The Yuzu Sour definitely lives up to its name — tart but tasty! — and the White Russian was absolutely delicious.
Food: We ordered the vegetable shiitake potstickers and Tochi. The food came out quickly and looked picture-perfect. I only tried the potstickers, but they were so good I could’ve easily ordered four more plates.
Dessert: We grabbed slices of green tea cheesecake and raspberry cheesecake to go — both a-m-a-z-i-n-g!
The Outbreak was the perfect ending to our Main Street crawl. Great food, creative drinks, and a fantastic vibe. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back if ever in...
Read moreWas passing through West Bend and looking for a place to eat. After strolling down Main Street checking out all the restaurants we were surprised to find Tochi Ramen in a bar. We talked to some other customers and they raved about how good the food was.
When we entered it was quiet, with a few people at the bar, and a couple tables with diners. Got served right away, we ordered a cocktail and beer. Our server recommended the special Hanzo Hasashi which was excellent.
Got a couple of orders of steamed buns, one Spam (love me some Spam) and the other Pork Belly. Both were fresh and flavorful. Got the Grass Fed Beef Mazeman. The flavors were amazing! Loved the smoked bone marrow butter. However the piece of beef in mind was tough and grizzled.
The atmosphere was chill and relaxed until halfway through our meal, a bunch of older men came into the bar, and were making a raucous, talking very loud, with plenty of profanity. Clearly having their idea of a good time.
We loved much of the experience, and would recommend it, but with some...
