Their ramen are sensational, with generous portions that are perfect for solo diners with a hearty appetite or friends who love to share. For first-timers, we highly recommend that you start with Araya Special to understand and experience their mastery of making ramen.

This miso-based ramen is savory and flavorful, keeping a balance in its umami. It has seasoned boiled egg, chashu (pork belly), ground pork, narutomaki (Japanese fish cakes), and lots of noodles.
We also fell in love with their Tantanmen that packs a kick of spice and a punch of umami to every serving.

If you are craving something spicy, you should try their Araya Karamiso Ramen, which has a spicy miso-based broth, thin egg noodles, and various toppings such as narutomaki, bokchoy, tamago (egg), and scallions. Make sure to pair this with their karaage for a truly filling meal.
