About RAMEN IPPUDO QV

Tucked into QV, RAMEN IPPUDO delivers Hakata-style ramen calibrated precisely to your liking—from noodle firmness down to broth richness. Regulars make a habit of dialing in the hardest noodle texture for the Akamaru Modern, where garlic oil and spicy miso cut through rich tonkotsu broth. The cavernous dining room keeps tables turning briskly, making it easy to slip in for a quick lunch or sit back after hours with gyoza and a cold beer. Plant-based diners get their own dedicated draw in the Nirvana bowl, topped with crisp enoki tempura and glazed eggplant chashu.

  • Tailored noodle doneness: Select precise noodle firmness—including extra hard—and customize broth richness to order.
  • Dedicated vegan ramen: Features the Nirvana bowl built with creamy plant broth, crispy enoki mushroom tempura, and eggplant chashu.
  • Monthly first-day special: Offers $10 bowls for standard ramen choices on the first day of every month for dine-in guests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you customize noodle firmness and broth levels?

Yes. You can customize your noodle firmness (including hard and very hard options) as well as adjust broth spice levels or salt intensity depending on the bowl. You can also order extra noodles if you want a larger portion.

What is the monthly $10 ramen promotion?

On the 1st of every month, Ippudo runs a recurring special offering standard ramen bowls for $10 (dine-in only, ordered via QR code at the table). Expect lines during this promotion, with wait times often around 30 minutes.

Are there plant-based or vegan ramen options?

Yes. Ippudo serves a plant-based Nirvana / Veggie Ramen featuring a creamy umami broth topped with sautéed eggplant chashu and crispy enoki mushroom tempura.

Should you dine in or order takeaway?

While takeout is packaged with soup, noodles, and toppings separated, reviewers note that takeaway portions can feel smaller and eating outside in QV square cools the hot soup down quickly. Dining in is recommended to enjoy the food piping hot with full table service.
