What to Eat at IchiRyu Ramen House Wasl How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For IchiRyu Ramen House Wasl, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Reserve ahead. Book before visiting, especially if you are going at a busy time; one walk-in party waited 25 minutes for a table.
Plan parking. Allow extra time for parking on weekends rather than arriving just before your booking.
Choose noodles. Ask about noodle types when ordering: reviews mention a choice between thin and regular, with thin noodles carrying an extra fee in one account.
Try red ramen. For a spicy bowl, consider the Red Ramen; a diner found its heat balanced rather than overwhelming.
Save dessert room. Leave room for matcha ice cream or mochi ice cream, both specifically praised as satisfying finishes.
Solo option. If you prefer minimal conversation, the restaurant has a solo section and lets diners order and pay using forms and QR code.

Common Concerns
Noodle surcharge
One reviewer found the ramen overpriced because thin noodles cost an additional 15 AED.

The Bottom Line
IchiRyu Ramen House is a casual Japanese restaurant in Jumeirah where ramen is the main draw. The menu gives you plenty to explore: reviewers praise the Red Ramen, Aka Paitan, Ichiryu Chef Kotteri Ramen and truffle ramen, while takoyaki, gyoza and maki rolls make useful starters. Broths are described as rich, creamy and flavourful, and portions can be generous enough to leave leftovers.
The setting is a big part of the visit. Anime, manga, Pokémon, cherry blossoms and Japanese memorabilia create a colourful atmosphere, with one review mentioning a dedicated Solo eating section. Families and children appear comfortable here, and another diner described ordering and paying with minimal conversation through a form and QR code.
Service is usually described as friendly, attentive and accommodating, though one visit involved slow service and food arriving a bit cold. The room is small, and tables can be close together. Weekend parking may take planning, and booking ahead is sensible: a walk-in party waited 25 minutes.
Also check the noodle choice and surcharge before ordering, since one reviewer paid an extra 15 AED for thin noodles. Desserts are generally well received, particularly matcha ice cream, though one pancake accompaniment was criticised as stale.
