The ramen is really good, and the soup base is the perfect balance of flavor. Most of the ramen are $15 ± 2, and keep in mind that you definitely need to reserve ahead of time. There's very few seats, and people usually stay 45min-1hr, maybe a bit longer. Even if you do reserve, they will remove you from the list if you arrive >5 minutes late. If you're in a group, make sure everyone arrives on time, because once the group enters, anyone who arrives late may unfortunately be turned around.
Fantastic ramen spot. I cannot say it's better or worse than Ramen Nagi, but it's different due to the source of their origin.
Menya had a much simple yet flavor broth than Nagis base. It's light, complex, flavorful and makes you want to drink it. Nagi's broth on the other hand is very rich and I cannot see people drinking the whole thing.
The Karage choices is more diverse with Menya and is excellent.
Price wise, both are in the same range.
Overall Menya is highly competitive with Ramen Nagi and is an excellent place for ramen dining.
I've experienced many ramen places in San Diego. Menya Ultra is one of the best so far. I ordered a Negi Miso Ramen and 5 pcs of karage. Both were really good, however, the portion of pork meat wasn't that much in my opinion. So, if you really like meat, you'll need to order extra. I paid 26 USD for everything (no drink). If you want to go, make reservation since there's always waiting list, especially at lunch time (noon) Enjoy it!
One of the best ramen spots in San Diego! Their regular broth was too salty for me though, so I would recommend getting the low sodium option.
Michelin rated Ramen Shop. Very good indeed. Top 4 I've been too. Hard to determine which one would be #1. They're all so yummy!
5-star: Great noodle, tasty soup,
3-star: for the long wait even we put our name on the Yelp waitlist. The turnaround was faster if one wants to sit at the bar but we preferred a table. Just for some reference, waitlist at 5PM and got seated at 6:15PM.
3-star: for the minimal service
Maybe will do takeout to save time.
Amazing Ramen in San Diego. Been a few times now and it's always a solid bowl. The broth is more creamy(thicker) than ither Ramen I've had and so flavorful. Their Tonkotsu is a go to and you must save room for dessert. The fried ice cream is absolutely mind blowing with that cold to hot tastebud explosiom
For ramen it honestly doesn’t get any better. Rich In flavor, perfect quantity, and made with quality and good tasting ingredients. Love this place! They have 3 locations in San Diego and the only place that strings their own noodles
