Harumama Noodles & Buns

definitely would want to go to this place again with my family! 😋 as for me, i got the garden party ramen, seaweed salad, koala strawberry bun, and polar bear egg custard bun. all were delicious, and as a ramen lover, i really savored the noodle soup! 😁🍜 the buns are ridiculously cute and adorable! 🐨 i appreciated that they have vegetarian options as well 🌿

Great spot for a quick lunch. Be aware-> the lunch special is only Monday-THURSDAY! It is the first thing on their menu so I went to order it on a Friday and said it wasn’t available- so I did the next best thing and ordered it anyway. This did not disappoint. I got the chicken ramen and the pig (BBQ) buns and they were so good! Quick turnaround makes it a doable daytime lunch spot during work and matched the vibe.

Even with their bigger location, there is always a wait! It’s worth it though. We went on a Wednesday night have waited for 1.5 hours. Not to worry. We went over to Oak & Elixir for a drink and they texted us when our table was ready. You can also check your place in line virtually. Friends say this is their absolute favorite ramen and their is no denying the cuteness of the animal buns. 🐷 I get the vegan option and they were out of chili oil this time so it wasn’t super flavorful but I’d still go back.

The entire menu looked delicious so we definitely over ordered in all the right ways. Bulgogi fries are excellent with a mix of fries, cheese, sauce, and veggies all very flavorful. We enjoyed the spice of the kimchi ramen; also ordering pork and duck buns. Things arrived promptly and very fresh! We did stop by Friday night but it was too busy where as coming back for opening the next day meant zero wait.

I really enjoyed this place and really had a good time. We ordered: + Karaage + Veggie pot stickers + Cucumber noodle salad + Eggplant and duck bao + Cow character bun + Fat duck ramen Feedback - karaage was standard, but didn't come with any lemon. This was unusual for me, since nearly every other place I've been to always provided a wedge - Cucumber noodle salad was drenched in dressing. The bottom of the dish was a pool. - the fat duck ramen was outstanding save for one thing, the noodles were a little soft. Next time I'd ask to see if I can get them as firm noodles or as al dente as possible. Standouts: Veggie pot stickers actually had good heat to them. Eggplant bao was delicious according to the wife.

Came to Harumama and LOVED it! Of course you've seen the cute bao all over Instagram and I will agree that they are overpriced for what you get, but you have to also realize that the price is for the artistic quality. Having said that, the two that I tried (cow and polar bear) were still very good. The buns were fluffy and the fillings were pretty generous! But the star of the show for me was the Uni Udon. This was SO GOOD. The noodles were thick yet supple and generously coated in an unctuous uni, peanut butter, fried garlic and shallot sauce. There was just so much flavor amplified by the deliciously creamy and briny uni. The addition of a couple langostino was also a nice touch. It's definitely worth the try in my opinion! Most other tables seemed to go for the ramen so I'm going to wager that that's probably pretty decent too. I guess I may have to try that in a future trip...!
