I was curious to try out this Michelin Rated Japanese ramen restaurant in Waikiki. However, it is noted that the Michelin rating was given to the original restaurant in Hokkaido, Japan. This restaurant blossomed into a chain found in other parts of the world such as Vietnam and Thailand.

I read somewhere that the Michelin rating was given for the shio ramen. However, whatever I read was wrong. It was given to the shoyu ramen. BUT! The shio is WINNAHS. I think it would definitely adapt to local taste buds for those that love saimin. Think of it as a luxurious, more flavorful saimin dish.

  1. Apologies. I read a review prior to coming here, and it said the Michelin Rating was given to the Shio Ramen, which is why I mention it in this video. After reading the restaurant's website, that person was incorrect. It was their shoyu ramen that got the rating. Nevertheless, after reading lots of reviews from regular folks, it seems more people liked the shio more than the shoyu ramen. So it's a win-win in my book.

  2. Aloha Misty!!!It was nice meeting you there!if you ever come to San Diego Let us know.Thanks for all the good videos you make.Always get new places to eat.😀Roy and Jo-Ann

  3. Aloha Misty: It was fun tagging-along with you for ramen noodles at the food court. I was amazed at the large bowl of delicious bone-broth noodles with garnishment and the side-dish of gyozas — the price was awesome for delicious food at a restaurant located in Waikiki. Too bad I don’t have a Hawaii ID anymore — 🥲. I am looking forward to visiting during the next visit home. You are dong a great vlog presenting the restaurants of our hometown. Keep up the great vlogging. Nice to meet one of your subscribers during this vlog. Best wishes and much 🧧, follow 🐯-alum! 🤙 to you and Aiden!

  4. Excellent food hall. I don't think I've had a really good bowl of Ramen yet so I'm waiting to try the places you have reviewed. Thanks again for another great review.

  5. My take: Ramen is a cut above saimin which is local style. Also, when you eat gyoza try it with the chili oil, vinegar and shoyu.

  6. Hi Sista, looks so Ono, making my mouth water. Good price for the quality. Thanks for another great video. God bless.

  7. Happy Aloha Friday Misty!! OMG that ramen looked ono!! We are excited to visit Stix Asia when we go back. Looks like a nice variety of vendors to try. A little pricey for ramen but again it’s in Waikiki so understandable. Even though the Shoyu was the Michelin winner, the Shio looks winnaz like you said. Mahalo for another great video!! Have a great weekend!! 🤙🏽🙌🏽😋👍🏽

  8. There has barely been a few I've found that are above really great to eat again and again. I'm going there hopefully soon 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾 Great tasty vlog my good fiend.

  9. Fancy ramen looked yummier than the shoyu ramen I'm sure. Looking forward to your next travel vlogs! I used to be a travel agent with company vouchers to travel all over the world which I never took lol I'm not much into traveling anyway, but love it when others show it through their eyes. Have a great weekend my friend.

  10. Bone broth is full of calcium…so that’s good. Oh yes, chili oil ramps up the flavor. You and I have the same thoughts About local style saimin vs Japan style ramen. 😊

  11. Awwww I wish I knew you were coming to Waikiki. You could have parked at my building.

    Tip: park at the Ross parking garage across the street. Buy something in the line for a couple bucks and you can get your parking validated for up to two hours.

    K Street Food has one of the best chicken sandwiches with a pickled slaw on top. Definitely worth checking out.

  12. Hehehe…Am Totally 100% agreeing w/U!…IMO…Most locals, like myself, try & stay as far Outside of WKK, as possible! Too much noise, too muh congestion & too much headache makes for Hugely unfriendly local environs! Whenever feeling the need to haed beachward, NS for me…Slamdunk!

  13. Looking forward to trying Stix out when I get there in Oct. 4 months 2 days to go. I have never had Ramen before not to many places sell it here in the UK so it is on my bucket list.

  14. OK it is the shoyu ramen …for the Michelin Star ! The shio ramen was onolicious ! We will try it out when we go home for a visit ! Mahalo for sharing Misty ! Stix Asia Waikiki hea we come !

  15. Vegetarian AND vegan ramen? That's awesome! Something for everyone. Thanks Misty. 😉🤙

  16. The ramen looks so delicious Misty! 😋😋😋 There are no really great ramen places on the mainland. 🙁
    Aloha and stay blessed! ❤️🙏🏻😊🌺🏝

  17. Your ramen looked almost like a tonkotsu…thick and cloudy. Usually, I like shio because it is clear. Not a fan of thick, cloudy broths. Well, I suppose there's more than one way to make it. But yeah I'm like you. If I don't HAVE to go to Waikiki (party, wedding, etc.), I won't.
