Karai Ramen Bistro

I am so happy I found this place!! I’ve been to so many ramen restaurants in Florida and this is by far the best I’ve ever had! I really hope Karai starts opening in new locations around Florida. The food is always consistent. The broth is flavorful and you can tell the ingredients are authentic. I highly recommend visiting. I do see quite a bit of negative reviews, but I have never had an issue going there. The staff are kind, quick, insightful, and helpful.

The ambience feels authentic. We tried the potato koroke, karai ramen, and katsu curry. They were all delicious. Food came out quickly and staff were friendly.

Attentive and quick service (they weren't super busy, we were there pretty early). Ramen was delicious, chicken katsu was delicious, gyoza was... you guessed it, delicious! Pork Belly wasn't too fatty, and the spicy pork belly was perfect. I'm a fan of their soy sauce mixture as well as their sweet sauce they have. Usually I don't like sweet sauce, but this one was just right ♡ We will definitely be stopping by next time we're in JAX. Beware the parking lot. They have signs up for "No Church" parking, but the church goers ignore them. (Some even park there on purpose just to be rude 😒.) I would avoid church service times for easier parking.

We had 3 different ramens - delicious with complex broths. Limited seating and excellent, charming service.

We love eating in but finally got a chance to try takeout and it was just as delicious as always! Got the to go only Udon shrimp curry and the kids loved having edamame with their ramen 🍜
