My second visit to Menya Ultra was just as impressive as the first. I enjoyed a delicious bowl of ramen paired with their crispy and flavorful fried chicken. The consistent excellence of their food combined with top-notch service makes it a must-visit. Looking forward to returning!

Overall, we loved it. The drinks and food came out very quickly. It actually surprised me. Great, great atmosphere and treatment, and also very good food. Don’t leave without trying the fried ice cream (Sorry for the bite, couldn’t help it). We ordered the Tanta Men and the Spicy Miso Ramen with egg. We will repeat.

I’ve been visiting Menya for many many years. I noticed they’ve downsize the bowls, glad the Ramen was delicious. What really disappointed me is the new QR code ordering/paying method. Why change the classic-traditional method? It was perfect!! You guys had something unique and amazing! I would love to see the old ordering and paying method return to Menya! It’s a big disappointment. Now the service is nonexistent and at the end of the bill you will be charged 15% for a service fee!! Is this how you guys treat loyal customers? What service?? When I had to order everything through my phone and my water was never refilled! I should be the one getting the 15% service fee. Also cash is NO longer accepted, terrible. We will not be back!

I’m from NY and this Ramen just blew my mind. I absolutely loved it, flavor was there, portion was incredible and the wait was short. All around well done!

Best ramen in San Diego. HANDS DOWN! There is AWLAYS a line and a wait so make sure to check in on Yelp when you’re close. This place is so good that there are multiple locations! They also have a great rewards program. Any of the Ramen is amazing and so bold with flavor. Their spicy miso is just the right amount of spice and the portions are HUGE for the price. Do not skip on Menya. You’ll regret it if you do.

The staff were really nice and super attentive. The food was nice enough but needs a little more salt/flavor to have been a really great restaurant. So overall it was still a good experience but it is definitely missing that extra push to be glorious.
