Menya is one of the most consistent Ramen restaurants in all SD! Nagoya style fried chicken, Tonkotsu, and TanTan are personally my fav! This place is always packed so make sure you add yourself to the waitlist before going there!

Ultra Menya is my favorite ramen spot in San Diego! I always order the vegan miso ramen, and it’s absolutely amazing. The broth is flavorful and satisfying, and the noodles are handmade, which makes such a difference in taste and texture. For anyone watching their sodium...Read More

This is my favourite Menya Ultra location - it definitely does not disappoint! However, it does fill quickly so getting there at opening is a good idea. The braised chashu is 100% worth it.

Such good flavors, fresh noods made on the spot, incredible ramen. The gyozas are crispy and tasty too. I wish they make veggie gyozas soon. Service was good, restaurant busy but you get seated fairly quickly. We'll be coming back for more soon!

Talk about a ramen experience! The place was absolutely packed before noon, and the service was on top of getting people in and out. They have to charge extra for the eggs right now which is a bummer but WORTH IT. I love spice, and the...Read More

I personally think that all of the rewards given to the restaurant isn’t enough to discribe how amazing the tonkatsu ramen was. The broth was rich and pure and the noodles were bouncy and chewy. If I lived in San Diego, I could come almost...Read More
