Yataimura Maru - Portland

The Tokyo Ramen is probably the worst ramen I’ve ever had in my life. No fat in the broth or pork—I’m not sure the pork could even be considered chashu and the broth was comparable to that of an instant ramen. The sushi was pretty good though.

The sushi is bland and overpriced. The restaurant is dirty and they were sold out of many items. Save your money.

I had pork gyoza and the basic Ramen. Both were super delicious and really hit the spot ? It was the perfect amount too- not over full, no leftovers.

When I say I'm obsessed with this place, I mean I'M OBSESSED. I went here with friends one night because it was nearby and looked good, and I've gone back so many times since. Not only is their atmosphere and decor nice but their food is also amazing. I'm absolutely in love with their abu udon with chili oil on the side. I haven't had many ramen/udon without broth and you mix a sauce in, so when I tried this for the first time, it was an absolute game changer. I also love their karaage, appetizers, and curry. Their rolls are alright in my opinion--nothing special, but I mostly come here for their ramen anyways. Try to get reservations if you can on the weekend, because there will almost always be a wait for dinner! :

The katsu chicken and curry was very comforting and did not taste like the premade one from the box. The bredding on the chicken was good perfect and the decorations inside were very nice. also the staff was nice
