I love Terakawa, The food is always excellent! Always able to sit right away. The food and service is great. The food comes out very quickly. They also have high chairs.

Sorry the picture isn’t so cute, I forgot to take it before we started eating. We got the Chicken Tan Tan. The plating was gorgeous before. But, I am not exaggerating when I say this is the best ramen I have ever eaten in my life and I’ve had a lot of really great ramen. The service was also lovely, they are very nice. I would definitely return to this spot when the next ramen craving hits.

A small, rather unassuming restaurant that was nicely decorated without being too much. I probably would have been fine without an appetizer since I was alone, but was glad I ordered the Pork Buns to start. Not overly sweet and you have a choice of soft or crispy buns. For my entree, I had their signature Terakawa Ramen, which had thin, straight noodles which held up well. The broth was delicious and I appreciated their seasoned egg, which was basically a half of a semi-hard boiled egg. I liked biting into that juicy yolk. For dessert, I had mango mochi. Clean presentation without the unnecessary whipped cream some places add. Service was good but maybe a bit rushed. Definitely a place I recommend and would go to again. Note to Management: Work with property management to make sure your marquee is lit. I stopped by at night and I missed it on first pass but luckily knew what I was looking for based on previous outdoor views. Yours wasn't the only one whose signage was off.

This place has it all organized and working very well and smoothly. The host at this place is very nice and quick. There was a waiting - a lot of groups. But the host was so calm and would sign groups up and give them the menu to explore and order food while they’re waiting. And the food arrives right after you’re seated. All warm and delicious meal. The bowls are huge and edamame was great. Taste amazing. The spicy red ramen was delicious. The flavors were on point and it was a huge bowl.

Ordered the terakawa ramen and chicken curry. The curry can be ordered as a mini side to any entrees. As an entrees it has large portions and pretty filling. I could barely finish it. The Ramen broth is rich, and the toppings can be requested served on the side. We always ask to take home any leftover broth.

We went there for lunch during one weekend in early December. We three ordered three ramen dishes. They were reasonably priced and were plentiful. They were very tasty. The service was excellent as well. Overall, it was a very good lunch. We would gladly go back there again.

Some of the best ramen I’ve had. Pork was super tender, melted in my mouth. Price was insane too, one bowl was 16, and they weren’t small.
