Ramen Ichinen - Calgary

Was there last Saturday and this is now my favourite Ramen place in Calgary. I ordered the Red Ramen and also ordered the Spicy Mazemen and a side of Chashu Bowl (Yes I know, I'm a pig! lol) and they were all extraordinary. The Spicy Mazemen had a very complex sauce and the noodles were cooked to perfection. And yes, as the menu suggests, you might want to order an extra bowl of steamed rice to soak all the goodness of the sauce on the bottom of the bowl. The Red Ramen? hmmmm... the broth was out of this world! Hands down my favourite broth out of all the ramen places that I've been to in Calgary. With the friendly service and amazing food, I am addicted to this place! See you again this weekend!

As a Japanese having ramen for decades I give full marks for the Tonkotsu Red Ramen. It is not just spicy but is composed of good balance of spicyness and texture. What is more the spicy miso paste gives a fantastic kick and savory flavor to the broth. It is very different from spicy ramens from other shops that put too much Doubanjian and make broths smelling only it.

This by far is the most delicious ramen We've tasted in Calgary! been searching for a place with hakata thin noodles...finally! new favorite.: the Tonkotsu Red Ramen and Original Tonkotsu Ramen are both superb. You also get to choose the type of noodle (thin or thick , meat (belly or shoulder , veggies and noodle firmness which i looove! Comfy place plus the people are friendly and accommodating. Thanks miss Meg!

Great ramen! Great service! I ordered Black Ramen, spicy level 2, thin noodles, and fatty char sui. The umami is definitely there and the base was smooth. The char sui was perfectly soft. The ajitsuke tamago on the bowl was perfect, but the extras we ordered were a bit overcooked. Other than that, it was a perfect Ramen experience. We'll be back tomorrow.

This place made me fall in love with ramen... And the chicken karaage is a must try too! Plus very friendly staff.
