Ramen Ryoma Beaverton

This place is pretty great! We ordered the Spicy Umamu Ramen, Tamago Mayu Ramen and Gyoza which was a very filling meal for two. It ended up being $30 which was a great deal. I definitely recommend the spicy Umami ramen, it is more of a numbing spice and not as harsh as some chili based ramen. The food came out super fast, likely a result of how simple the menu is. Atmosphere isn't a huge selling point but it's not too loud, and the restaurant is clean so points there. Overall, I highly recommend this shop as an affordable and delicious option for ramen with a good amount of customization options. Also, they have gluten free noodles for a small surcharge!

Vegetarian Food Review: They have very few vegetarian options but the vegetarian ramen was delicious. And the salted edamame were good too. Definitely a must try. Seating can get challenging because it’s packed during dinner time. Which is a good thing. So plan accordingly for waiting.

Ever since our last trip to Japan at the end of 2024, we have been trying to find a place that would replicate the Ramen we had in Japan. Now I know coming back from Japan my standards are a bit higher. Ramen Ryoma was suggested to us by one of our friends, I put it on my list to try. The atmosphere was very similar to some of the Ramen places we had visited in Japan, the staff were very friendly, greeted us in Japanese and we were seated. I had ordered the Deluxe Ramen Ryoma in Shiyo with extra noodles, and my wife had the cream of butter Ramen. When the Ramen came to our table, the first thing we did was to taste the broth, wow, you can tell the difference in the care they put into their broth, we were so excited to dig in. The firmness of the noodles were to my liking, the fat pieces of Char Siu with the intertwining that was amazing, each slur took me back to Japan. So if you're looking for a great place to experience some great Ramen had a great price highly recommend this place. We will definitely be going back and trying other noodles.

Tucked away in a modest business plaza in Portland, Oregon, Ryoma Ramen finds itself neighboring a curious "Japanese" market—though its Hawaiian influences suggest a unique cultural fusion. The restaurant offers a cozy, unassuming ambience that pairs well with its approachable menu, but can Ryoma captivate the discerning palate of a ramen enthusiast? I ventured to find out. After being welcomed by the attentive waitress, I had already made up my mind: the Corn Butter Ramen with miso broth, along with a beer to pair. At first glance, I was intrigued by the ordering system for beer, allowing diners to pick a size that suits their mood. A small touch, but one that speaks to thoughtful service. I will admit that I was a little perplexed by the naming convention of the ramen; in Japan, this dish is typically called "Butter Corn Ramen," a detail that might strike traditionalists as odd—but ultimately, that's cosmetic. The food arrived promptly, starting with the beer followed by the steaming bowl of ramen. Visually, the presentation was spot-on: the pat of butter oozing into the broth, golden corn glistening atop the bowl, and the roasted pork neatly arranged. It was a picture-perfect display that stirred anticipation. However, my first sip of broth gave me pause—the flavor initially had a burnt undertone that was both surprising and disappointing. However, as I mixed the ingredients together, the broth seemed to mellow and balance out, improving significantly with each bite. The noodles were an undeniable highlight. Cooked to perfection, they struck the coveted balance of chewiness without crossing into mushy territory. They’re the kind of noodles that keep you coming back for more. The roasted pork, on the other hand, presented an inconsistency. While the flavor was deep and well-executed, the temperature was inexplicably cold—a perplexing misstep that diminished the overall enjoyment of the dish. It warmed over time once submerged in the broth, but this came at the expense of cooling the soup, which should ideally stay piping hot—a hallmark of a good ramen experience. Granted, I arrived close to closing time, so perhaps the kitchen had begun prepping for the end of the night, but this detracted from an otherwise solid offering. The miso-based broth itself, while decent, lacked the rich, creamy intensity that deeper ramen aficionados—myself included—tend to gravitate toward. While this could be an intentional adjustment to cater to American tastes, it fell somewhat short of delivering the depth of flavor I hoped for. That said, I must emphasize that ramen varies widely depending on the region in Japan; for instance, Kyushu’s tonkotsu ramen is famed for its lush pork-based broth, which perhaps set an unfair benchmark in my mind. Despite the lighter flavor profile, the bowl remained enjoyable overall, especially for those open to a less traditional interpretation. Ultimately, Ryoma Ramen offers a comforting, approachable bowl of ramen that feels designed with both American and Japanese influences in mind. It’s not perfect—the temperature mishap and somewhat underwhelming broth were notable shortcomings—but these weren’t dealbreakers. For a casual ramen outing, Ryoma absolutely delivers a good meal and an inviting atmosphere. Would I return? Yes. With a few tweaks—especially to the depth of the broth and attention to small kitchen details—I suspect Ryoma could truly shine. For those seeking an “authentic” experience, keep your expectations tempered. Ramen differs across Japan’s regions, and clinging too tightly to one interpretation can lead to unnecessary disappointment. Ryoma Ramen isn’t a trip to Kyushu—it’s a Portland experience, and it’s worth trying with an open mind and appetite. While it doesn’t transport you fully to Japan, it’s a bowl that brings joy in its own way. Give it a shot, and savor the little details that make Ryoma what it is.

I was visiting Portland,, and I wanted to try a ramen restaurant for date night. I love the food. Our server Miles is very nice, and he has solid recommendations on the menu. We had tried the Umami Spicy Ramen, and the Tamago Mayu Ramen The ramen broth is very thick without being too overbearing. The noodles are flavorful and springy. I'm amazed at the quality, despite the price being cheaper than Downtown Portland, and the noodles coming out in only a few minutes. Definitely will be coming back again.

Everything about Ryoma is top notch! The food is amazing, all the mix match options can seem overwhelming but just ask your server and they can help you! Food comes very quick, is always amazing! Truly a great place to pop in if you are craving Ramen! Or before you go get groceries!
