The Hakata Modern is probably the best flavored ramen broth ever. The pork is always so yummy and flavorful. But the marinated hard boiled egg in there is chefs kiss! They give you a ton of broth, noodles and all the other add ins. They are packaged separately, which is great. That way if you can't eat it right away the noodles won't absorb all the broth. We have been ordering here for years and the quality is always on point and consistent too!!

Lowkey didn't like it but it's not the places fault. I didn't like the broth which kinda defeated the whole purpose of buying ramen. I'm happy that they do deliver the broth and the toppings in separate containers because I ended up pouring the broth down the sink. The toppings were nice and fresh so I ate some of them but it honestly felt like eating a scrap salad since it was just random toppings in a pile (I didn't want to toss them). I wouldn't order this again but everybody's different. I also didn't even really get to eat the actual noodles since they already had a specific taste to them that I didn't like. I feel like this place would have nice food but I lowkey don't want to be risky with my money. Overall I rate 3/10 I'm happy that I bought this with a discount because I would have had paid like 30$ for a weird salad.

The udon bowl was massive, piping hot, and full of thick, chewy noodles; several chunks of tender imitation crab; a light, flavorful clear broth; and perfectly crunchy kelp. They even kept the scallion garnish off my order, just like I asked! I could have easily made two meals of the dish, but I'll admit I got greedy and ate it all in one extended sitting.
There were five massive takoyaki drizzled with a delightful combination of mayo - not too much so as to be heavy - and a tangy brown sauce. The octopus chunks inside the lightly crisp, wonderfully smooth and slightly gooey balls of dough were well done, and overall, they were a culinary delight to eat.
If that wasn't enough, they even dropped my stuff off early! (My workplace is pretty close, but still!) With such a feast and service (did I mention they supplied plenty of napkins and utensils?) I can only say that the best time to order ramen is whenever these guys are open.

The Takoyaki is delish, I love the creamy savory flavor of it! My go to place for a good bowl of rice or ramen. The staff are always nice when you go in, the portions are always generous. Excellent flavors on everything they have!

I think this is the best ramen in Grand Rapids. But they insist on packaging the iceberg lettuce salad right in the same box as the hot rice and katsu. Worse yet they dress it. I have tried specifically asking for separate for delivery and doesn't happen. It's pretty gross by time of delivery. Katsu is good, rice is good, pile of slime next to them.
