Ramen-Ya TEINEI - Ramen restaurant in Seattle - 1256 Republican St #5538, USA

Absolutely a must if you’re in Seattle! Stopped by during restaurant week too which is going on right now, and enjoyed some of the freshest and tastiest sashimi I’ve had in the city! Definitely coming back! Highly recommend. The team here is also so thoughtful and it’s cool to watch the open kitchen. Ordered more food to go because it was that good!

This place is worth the wait, but I would have liked a bit of a heads up that they would be just as packed as every other place in the area on a Friday night. The servers tried their best, but were out numbered. Thanks goodness they let us sit and dine at the bar. We were not in the mood to wait 30+ minutes and once we notice the decor, we just had to try the ramen. No other place would do. The interior and decor of this place is just down right cool no butts about it. Even the bathroom is beyond cool. They have a friggin tree inside their bathroom. I should have taken photos. At least I got a shot of their legendary gundam collection. I was a huge fan growing up. I literally felt like I was somewhere else like Vancouver Canada or Japan. Lmao. I haven’t even said a word about the food yet. Yes the food was a just like in my dreams, perfectly seasoned the way the menu ingredients explain. I did not add anything to my ramen. I ordered the chicken tonkatsu shoyu ramen and I must say it was spot on. Even the chicken was tender and almost tasted bbqed. My partner had the garlic special which I believe had squid ink. Very nice touch and gave it more of a bolder smokier flavor. Also very beautiful. The only downside, I was still fairly hungry after. I wish I would have ordered an appetizer. Next time I’ll be sure to try out on of their specials. Their base options blew me away, but the garlic special was good but not as good as the base chicken shoyu. In my opinion. I must say, the garlic special is still worth a try since it’s such a unique flavor I’ve never really tasted in this way. Oh, and back to my roots, their water was very clean and refreshing. This really tells me a lot about how they care both about the establishment and their customers. I can’t wait to come back. Last but not least, I think they deserve and award for best ramen that I’ve ever tried. Don’t quote me because my ramen game could use some work. But at the same time, stand out food is still stand out food.

I first visited because I love Ramen and it was close to my hotel on a work trip. I came came back a second time because the Ramen was so good. I had the Garlic Tonkotsu both times and it is fanonminal. You have to give it a try.

Went here on a weekday night to some delicious Ramen and picked the Chef’s Special SUPER RAMEN ✨ - Veggie Volcano Ramen! 🍜 (this comes with a boiled egg unless you ask otherwise) ❤️Omg the Food portion and the the taste of broth on this ramen was Divine! If you were down with flu, this would be like a god sent gift! I absolutely love loved this one so much! 😭💕 ✨ Other than that - We had the Veggie Croquette as well as an appetizer. This was really delicious as well ❤️ ✨ Also you can try the authentic Japanese Soda that comes with a glass ball here, if you haven’t ❤️ The waitress was super cute and friendly too! ♥️♥️♥️ Perks for Amli residents with a discount if you carry your perk card !

Great spot for Ramen! Veggie friendly, with options. Even has Sapporo on draft which is a plus. If you happen to grab a seat at the bar, there’s a sweet collection of anime posters and figures from Gundam wing to neon genesis evangalion.

The food was delicious and well prepared! The eel cold noodles were well balanced with sweet and salty; the ramen miso soup noodles were tasty. The restaurant is located at a quiet neighborhood near Union Lake. It takes time to wait for our orders prepared. The ventilation is poor, our clothes had food smells so strong after our visit. Overall the price value is great with such wonderful food.

The ramen here is one of the most delicious ones I've ever tried in the states. If you like spicy food I recommend the spicy tonkotsu ramen! The service is really good as well as the decoration with figurines brought from Japan.

This place seems like a more traditional sit-in restaurant, but there's two things to keep in mind: 1. The menu is actually on a QR code that shows the list of options, and 2. You actually have to walk up to the counter and order/pay for your food instead of someone coming to you first. Was confused for a little while until I realized that. Still, good proportions and good food! I'd try it again.
