Ika San Ramen

John Potter

Poor experience. Didn’t get our order out correctly. Never got meat in my friends ramen. Missing items. Friend got other peoples extra ordered eggs. Overcharged for items that differed from the menu, (menu said $11 and my bill rang up $13). One persons bill had someone else’s items on it etc. Had to ask for additional soy sauce in ramen because we don’t know if they even made any of it right. They obviously fixed it but there were just too many issues and wouldn’t recommend.

Summary: apparently all the money has been invested in making the place look pretty, with little left over to actually make the food taste good. The food appears to be what the menu calls it in name only. It goes to show that you can name a dish anything you want, and it barely requires a passing semblance to it. While the visual aesthetic of the restaurant was interesting, and the staff attentive, it was hard to hear them say anything over the loud pounding music. As a matter of fact, when I walked in, I couldn't even hear the host come up behind me and ask if I'd like to be seated. The rice in the "oyakudonburi" was undercooked and crunchy, in the entirety of it was covered in a spicy mayo that made it oily and unpleasant. The flavor was all muddled up, and it was a bit of a chore to eat (I say "eat", but I mean consume for the sake of sustenance, not pleasure). The "yakitori" consisted of small, flaccid pieces of chicken with no flavor of their own. A sweet American style teriyaki sauce was drizzled all over it and the water logged pieces of green onion it rested on. One has to wonder how many days ago those onions were prepared. These kinds of skewers are supposed to be grilled, however there was no texture or char marks to indicate that the meat had been cooked that way. I'm sure there's a segment of the population that will find this place enjoyable, but I cannot in good conscience recommend this to anybody I know. The staff seemed kind enough though, so I can't say that it was all together a terrible experience.

Our group really enjoyed dinner here while staying in the Omaha area. The service was good, the ambience was excellent, and all of our dishes were delicious. We tried four different ramen bowls, as well as several small plates, and all were excellently prepared.

My wife and I go here on an irregular basis. We don't make a ton of money, so date nights are special for us. We love this place. Our waitress was genuinely cheerful and tentative. The food is always good. The Tonkotsu with an extra egg and the Mary Jane are our favorites. Our waitress recommended the Tokyo fried chicken for an appetizer and I also recommend it. But what really stuck out for us this time was that there was an issue with our order and the manager was very quick to rectify it. We were really taken care of. I enjoy serving people, so being served this well myself is humbling for me and the staff did just that. We will be coming back to this location from now on. Thanks for taking care of us!
