So we stooped by Ramen ya Its very convenient and we got the following item Mini Katsu curry combo Garlic ramen Kids chicken Katsu curry Gyoza happy hour

Decent parking in Waipio next to Starbucks and Costco. The food deserving 5 Stars as the Service and Ambiance. Perfect indoor AC temp makes this place "a must go".

Look, this isn't fancy ramen by any stretch, but it has a few things going for it: - close to home - solid value - quick takeout and perhaps most importantly, - my picky kid LOVES it We almost always get takeaway and opt for the Combo A or B for $16. They've raised the prices a bit in recent years, but haven't changed the portion sizes - still plenty food. We almost always get the Combo A, which has a small ramen, 4 gyoza, and a choice from a limited menu (like fried rice, mochiko chicken, a couple katsu curries, beef stew). That side item can be a meal in itself. When my keiki was smaller, we could split one of those combos between the two of us - now he winds up downing all the ramen himself and half of another. The ramen comes with broth and a separate container for the noodles, kamaboko slice, green onions, and a slice of pork. Chicken katsu curry comes over white rice, and IIRC, the mochiko chicken comes with mac salad and white rice but I usually opt for the katsu so it's been a while. They're also fast for takeaway. There are a limited number of tables (5? four-tops) but I can call my order in from Mililani, get in the car, and it's ready when I get to Laniakea Plaza in about 10-12 minutes. Parking is tight. There are a good number of spaces, but they can fill up at meal times because there are several eateries that share the lot, plus the angles of the parking rows and entrance/exit can make it difficult to get into some spaces.

Waiting for the car in the Costco Auto center around lunch, and didn't feel like food courtin it, so we walked over to Ramen-Ya to grab a bite. We walked in and were immediately greeted, vax card checked, and seated. The menus are posted on the walls/windows to avoid contact. I haven't been to a Ramen-Ya in a minute so I was pleasantly surprised to find some new offerings! We chose to try the following: - Black Garlic Ramen ($12.50) - Super dark, garlicky broth with a load of fried garlic. Slightly bitter but overall immensely savory. Came with a hard boiled egg and four slices of chashu. - Paitan Ramen ($12.50) (sub udon +50c) - Light, creamy and salty broth. Really flavorful and comes with a hard-boiled egg, four slices of chashu, generous amounts of menma, and a smattering of wakame. Both bowls had a lot of noodles and really hit the spot. The chashu was a bit inconsistent, a couple slices were very tough but most were tender and fall-apart delicious. My biggest complaint would be that the menu shows ajitama with a dark color, but they really just hard boil an egg and drop it in. Kinda bland and disappointing. Having that marinated egg would've sent this bowl above and beyond. Great option to have in the Costco area, especially right next to the auto center! We'll be back for sure.
