Customer Reviews
Spontaneous visit to a ramen place I’ve never been to. I am a really big ramen fan and I have to say Gin Ramen is AMAZING. I had the Gin Ramen with the bulgogi and chashu. It was extremely flavorful with a kick. I appreciated all the textures and the black garlic oil was chefs kiss. My husband ordered the chicken kaarage ramen and wowwweee was it creamy and buttery. The kaarage was juicy with a nice crunch. My husband and I were served by Jannie (sp?). She made recommendations, was anticipatory, and checked on us throughout. The atmosphere was beautiful. We will definitely be back here again with friends. I want to try all their ramen now.
A very cool ramen restaurant, cozy seating,lighting, and interior design. Was greeted and seated right away and the bartender was incredibly friendly and attentive and even went over the menu with me to share his favorites. Ended up going with the house specialty Gin ramen (with chase and blugogi) which was excellent. Good serving size, ramen came out quick, and they didn't skimp on any of the sides (though I would've have liked maybe one more piece of chasu to come included). The menu is pretty extensive and they seemed to have a curated cocktail menu and a broad selection of Japanese and Scottish Scotches as well which is a nice touch.
Stopped here for lunch in a weekday. It was not busy. The service was quick and polite. The staff were friendly. I got the Katsu rice bowl and came with a fresh salad. Both were flavorful. Tried the shrimp bao-very good as well. The decor inside was very nice. Street parking or paid parking garages.
Gin is a real Gem. Amazing food that is fresh and perfectly prepared-eggs, noodles, beef. There is a reason that the Gin Ramen (bolgogi ramen) is the most popular. Certainly great for the cold weather. The bar tender and innovative cocktails are worth the visit. The staff has a special hustle and were fantastic and getting hungry diners fed.
I love ramen and have tried many places, and Gin Ramen really impressed me. I ate here last week, and the ramen was rich, flavorful, and very satisfying, with fresh ingredients and perfectly cooked noodles. The atmosphere was comfortable, and the service was friendly. I would definitely come back again.
