Ronin Izakaya

Tried their shoyu ramen with my friend after our field trip and I must say that it was one of the best ramen I've ever had. It both looks and tastes good. The broth is flavorful and light. Atmosphere of the store is very pretty and they open anime from tv. I'm craving it really bad so I will take my brother with me next week.

Absolutely loved this place. The food was great and the drinks were reasonably priced. I preferred this place to the one two doors down. Can't wait to go back!

Ronin Izakaya is a Japanese tapas bar serving up some delicious Japanese tapas, skewers, ramen, Oden, and don bowls. The main attraction here is the samurai sword skewers, but we decided to try some tapas and rice bowls. The rice bowls come with a seaweed miso soup. The broth was satisfying and served piping hot. The karaage bowl came with crispy chunks of fried chicken Japanese style drizzled with some tangy soy garlic sauce. The chicken was juicy and crispy on the outside. My Gyu Don beef bowl was a bit underwhelming. Very small portion of beef and lots of rice. The poached egg yolk was good to eat on the rice. I did find my myself looking for more meat and had to eat some of my wife's chicken. In the picture on the QR menu, there was a pickled daikon salad which we did not receive with our order. It's no big deal, but the menu picture should only depict what is served. The lychee ebi bomb shrimp was my favorite dish but kind of pricey at $17 for 5 shrimps. Thankfully, the shrimps were gigantic to make up for only 5 pieces served. The oysters at $0.99 each during 1pm-5pm weekdays is a great deal and went well with our 2 for $10 Asahi draft beers. I will definitely come back and try the samurai skewer, some yakitori skewers as well. We did notice a lot of menu items were showing sold out. The restaurant was not busy around 4:30 pm. If you want some delicious Japanese tapas, I do recommend giving this place a try. We were happy with the food, and service was friendly. The decor inside is beautiful with Japanese murals and wooden tables and stools. Makes you feel like you're in a Japan. P.S. if you check in on Yelp, you get 10% off your bill.

Located in the heart of Downtown, Ronin Izakaya offers a delightful taste of Japan with its cozy ambiance and extensive menu. As soon as you step in, you're greeted by warm, traditional decor that sets the mood for a relaxed evening. The menu boasts a wide variety of izakaya staples, from yakitori skewers and savory grilled dishes. Each dish we ordered was bursting with flavor and impeccably presented. The freshness of the ingredients was evident in every bite. The drink selection is equally impressive, featuring a range of sake options and Japanese beers that complemented our meal perfectly. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, providing recommendations and ensuring our glasses were never empty. Overall, Ronin izakaya delivers an authentic Japanese dining experience that's perfect for both casual outings with friends or more intimate dinners. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to explore Japanese cuisine beyond sushi and ramen .

The food was incredible. Our server was amazingly friendly and quick. When one of us forgot our hat, he ran after us in order to return it. Above and beyond service.

Best Beef tataki in the area, tender meat with refreshing sauce. Perfect dish to side with a couple beers ( they also have patio, which is great for summer nights)

Food is so delicious, people are so nice here, should keep visiting

Good food, nice atmosphere and great time with friends. Thanks for your service

The food and drinks are amazing!! I went there for my friend’s birthday, and they are so helpful and thoughtful:) my friend and I were very satisfied!! <3

Went for a quick lunch. Ordered a ramen soup which I forgot the name. Came with ground pork and some chasu. Soup tastes great and spiciness was just right. Wasn’t disappointed but could have been better.
