Chika Ramen Izakaya

I enjoyed how the ramen had corn. Vegetarian options were clearly marked, but hard to tell which ones were vegan. Was told the kimchi ramen was not vegan, grateful the staff warned us. I think the broth could be more flavorful. Another person in our party loved the broth & thought it was great as is. There were no windows in the restaurant so felt a little stuffy atmosphere wise.

A good spot to get a warm & tasty meal in the middle of winter. Ramen broth was good, noodles were chewy, the pork had a tiny bit of after taste. The takoyaki & karaage were quite good - hot & delicious. The place was clean & inviting. No complaints with the service. Definitely a good place to have a filling meal.

Okay food, bad service.

Place had the potential to be really cool. Once sat, despite being one of three tables in the restaurant, it took about half an hour to come see us to take our order. From the time we were given our food, we didn't see another server again. We had to go to the front & tell them we were leaving to get our bill. Asked for chili oil twice, never got it.

Food was okay, nothing special. Broth was more meaty than miso-y. Meat was overcooked.

Food comes out very slow. We wait about 30 mins on Civic Monday for ramen to come out.
The Sama fish was delicious, but all the 3 ramen broth we ordered were a huge disappointment. The broth was shallow & flat.

I was looking for a ramen & had a go on Chika. The kimchi was delicious but spicy (I love it but some people don't)
I had the pork broth with chicken ramen. It was a generous portion. The broth was tasty & the egg delicious.

We tried Tonkosu Ramen, the broth was very tasty & hot. We also had a side of Japanese fried chicken which was very delicious.

The service was excellent & very friendly

I really like the ramen. I tried the fumed duck ramen. The broth is savory & tastes really good. The duck also delicious.

We tried their tonkotsu ramen. The broth looked good but could be richer. The portion was great with 3 thick slices of chasu & half of the egg which can be marinated better as well. Noodles used were the yellow noodles, came with bamboo shoots & black fungus. Service was excellent

Very solid ramen. The miso broth & tonkosu broth are both very flavorful. The pork in the ramen is nothing to write home about, but it certainly wasn't bad either.

Good portion of ramen. The broth was very good. Top tier. The pork was a bit low quality. I would be ok if they cut the pork a bit more thinly & have less portion & provide higher quality meat. Also had the Chicken Karaage & it was very good.
