Betsutenjin Ramen

The Hakata style ramen is delicious! I've tried just about every ramen joint in the city, and this is by far my favorite.

Place was recommended by a friend and I’m grateful I listened. Ramen was cooked well and the broth was rich without being too much. Mushrooms were also cooked well with a small crunch still there. Favorite part was the pork! Had the right amount of fat and was super flavorful! 10/10 would recommend coming back again and definitely would recommend to others.

Pretty small restaurant overall, but based on its location not too busy. Lots of single bar seats. They really only have two mains which are hakata style or prawn Miso. I got the hakata combo with gyoza. The gyoza is a bit disappointing, not in taste but they are very small. The ramen was pretty solid. Really good noodles and a pretty okay broth. Luckily they have an assortment of condiments to make it better. Like togarashi and garlic chips. I think without the condiments it's a pretty boring bowl but the togarashi really puts it up a notch. Also wish the bowls came with a bit more broth.

One of the best ramen that I’ve had in Seattle and the experience was unique even among all the ramen spots in Seattle! I recommend the hakata style ramen and remember to put the extra spices in that are available on your table. The restaurant itself is very small, intimate, and private at the same time. Highly recommend Betsutenjin to everyone! Food I got the hakata style ramen and loved it. The broth is pork bone broth. It is clean, rich, not oily, not salty, and delicious. I would add in the spices available on the table to customize the broth to how you like it. The ramen noodles were also really good and firm so that you can slurp them right up. The meat on top was fatty enough and just enhanced the dish overall. I definitely want to come back here and try the other ramens on the menu as well since I loved my first time so much. The menu is limited and they do the few dishes very, very well. We also got potstickers for the table and I loved how the bottoms were so crispy. The soy sauce is so random because it’s just packet soy sauce. Atmosphere Casual, laid back ambiance that is very private for your party. There is a curtain that blocks off your table from the rest of the restaurant and gives you lots of privacy and helps block out noise. The table itself feels very intimate though. It is a unique dining experience and I can imagine that people eat ramen like this in Japan. Pricing Ramen prices are also very reasonable for the quality of ramen that you get. Prices are comparable, maybe lightly more depending on what dish you get, to other ramen spots. The food and experience is very worth the price you pay. Service Service was good. When you first enter, you put in your order at the window and then they bring your food out to your table. The staff was friendly and helpful in answering any questions. Other The restaurant is pretty small so there can be a long wait so be prepared for that.

Fairly busy on a Tuesday night. You order at the front and get guided to your seat. The seating area is secluded and you can pull the curtains once you do get your food to eat in private. The ramen is a little pricey, but I'm still glad it comes with a gooey ramen egg, cooked to perfection. We both bought the Hakata set with extra gyozas. Gyozas came with a dipping sauce. The ramen itself was good, but the broth could've been more flavourful. It is made of 100% pork bones and we enjoyed the taste overall. Service was great!

Given that there were only 2 things on the menu, I have to say, both were delicious! I especially enjoyed the broth of both the Hakata Style Ramen and the Prawn Miso Ramen. The restaurant itself is a little hard to find, as it's one tiny unassuming door and the decor was dimly lit and a little small. Despite all this, it still somehow felt perfect. Very homey, cozy, and Japanese. Would highly recommend and almost certainly will be back!
