Tenji Ramen

Authentic delicious Japanese food! The best Gyu Don beef bowl I've ever had. The rice was perfect...Nice and clean, great place to come and enjoy lunch, my husband and daughter both had the chicken teriyaki bowl and loved it. The staff is very friendly. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back.

Staff greeted me the instant I walked in the door. My server was friendly, helpful and attentive. She checked on me periodically and made sure I was good at all times. The food was hot and delicious. I ordered the Crispy Chicken Karaage and the Spicy Tonkotsu Black ramen dish (with a few add-ons). The chicken dish was cooked perfectly and had a delightful crispiness that did not disappoint. The ramen was plentiful and had just the right amount of kick. I recommend checking Tenji Ramen out if you’re looking for a good local eatery with authentic flavors.

I heard about Tenji Ramen from a friend, and their recommendation was absolutely spot on! I visited on a Saturday around 2:30 PM and had no trouble finding a seat. The restaurant is super clean, and the art on the walls adds a vibe to the overall ambiance. I was excited to see the Gyu-Don (thin beef) bowl on the menu. The waitress was incredibly sweet and welcoming. She took my to-go order right away and even offered me water while I waited. Service was fast, and everything came out neatly packed and ready to go. The food itself was flavorful. The beef bowl had great taste, though I think next time I’ll ask for a sauce on the side, maybe a little teriyaki, just for an extra punch. I also loved the little touch of including a mint with the meal. Small things like that I personally appreciate. Their menu has so many tempting options, and I’ll be back to explore more. That beef bowl, that’s my new go-to!

Fantastic friendly service with smiles all around! Polite staff and great food. The pork char siew fried rice is super good, the dim sum is great (they have vinegar and ginger for the Xiao long bao!) and the lunch bentos are huge! Family loved the chicken karaage and ordered a second serving to-go. Great meal stop that we highly recommend :)

Great place!!! my husband is a very picky eater he loves the food here!

Good food, service, and atmosphere. You will want to come back after you eat here because of the staff attending you and the quality/quantity of food they give. The only bad thing I have to say is that they sell soda by the can, other than that, it's a great place to eat.

I just found out about fresh Ramen noodle soups being made at these Ramen restaurants! I love Ramen noodle soup now & Tenji Ramen noodle restaurant in Murrieta CA and believe me it's fire! They have some of the yummiest Chicken Ramen noodle soup I've had! I added some extra egg. Which I love! I just didn't expect to pay $1.50 for an extra egg!! I mean I understand that good prices are going up but charging a $1.50 for an extra egg is just a little excessive!! Otherwise everything else was great! I loved the chicken Ramen but my husband's Ramen noodle dish was even better! Especially with the chili oil and garlic oil that they add too the soup. My hubby just had to add a little extra! Lol.. If you like Ramen Noodle soup then you really should give Tenji Ramen Noodle Restaurant a try! I'm pretty sure you'll like it too!! 😁😂👌

Went here for lunch with family. The staff were really nice and friendly. The service was quick. Didn’t take too long to get our food. Usually I’d get ramen, but was hankering for something different- so I went with the Chicken Katsu Curry. Just the right amount of food, and perfect amount of spice. Fam had a bento box and the Gyudon bowl (both tasted amazing, but the Gyudon seemed a tad smallish). We also split an order of the Koroke which were also delicious, and piping hot. Really nostalgic for me. Definitely gonna go back again (and try the ramen next time).

The food is ahhhhmazing! Soup dumplings are fresh and cooked to perfection and the Chicken Katsu Curry is addictive, it's a must have! Staff was attentive, friendly, and quick with service. My new favorite spot 😊.

I recently visited Tenji Ramen and was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service, delicious food, and stunning decor. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome and cared for as a customer. They went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was enjoyable, and I truly appreciated their efforts. The restaurant itself was immaculate, with every detail thoughtfully considered. Even the glass of water was crystal clear, a testament to the high level of cleanliness and attention to detail that is present throughout the entire establishment. The decor was beautiful, creating a warm and inviting ambiance that made me feel right at home. And the food... oh, the food! Every soup that I tried was simply delicious, with rich and complex flavors that left me wanting more. I was blown away by the quality of the ingredients and the skillful preparation of each dish. It's clear that the chefs at Tenji Ramen are passionate about what they do and take great pride in creating exceptional meals for their guests. Overall, I cannot recommend Tenji Ramen highly enough. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or a special night out, this restaurant is the perfect choice. With friendly staff, a clean and inviting atmosphere, and delicious food that is sure to satisfy even the most discerning palate, Tenji Ramen truly has it all. Five stars all around!

The waitress/shop owner was very nice and took good care of us! The food was very good, the drinks were cold and tasty, and had cozy seats.

This is a keeper!!! A very tasty, affordable ramen & dimsum location. The Soup Dumpling is a must-try! But the MVP for me is the ribs appetizer -- great seasoning, soft, tender (not dried up or jerky-like!). It comes in 3 pieces, so it can be a meal with a side of rice! The pork buns and steamed items were equally great! Don't forget to check out their Happy Hour options! 👌 Find it @: off Alamos Rd...Around the corner from Stater Bros., just past Pizza Hut.

The BEST RAMEN IN THE AREA 10/10 The staff is always amazing and super friendly!!! I love to come here with my husband when we crave ramen! 🍜

Love this place! The servers are friendly and attentive. The ramen is delicious. Our waitress remembers our order feom the first time we went 2 years ago.

This place is Awesome! Most of their appetizers are under $10 dollars so that's great. I had the katsu curry, which i loved. The Ramen was delicious as well. I also had some Sake, their bottle is like $8. Their service was really nice as well. Overall great service, decent prices cheaper the most places and tasty food.

Very good service and the food was flavorful. The tonkatsu isn't as thick or rich as other ramen places I've been to, but rather milder but still flavorful. The chashu was seared and a little tougher than other ramen places, but not a deal breaker as it complimented the milder flavor of the broth. Loved the gyoza and kaarage. Despite the differences in flavor, still one of the best ramen places in my opinion in the Murrieta area, and we'll definitely be back again.

Discovering this cozy and serene ramen spot has been a delightful experience. This establishment caught my eye since its opening day, yet I hadn't managed to dine there until now. I'm thrilled to report that my first visit was a success. The chicken ramen served here is both flavorsome and hearty. Equally impressive was the shrimp tempura udon. Although sushi isn't usually my preference, the visually appealing sushi orders around me suggested it's also a hit. If you're in the neighborhood, I highly recommend giving this place a try.

Our overall the experience was just okay. The food was quite basic—not bad by any means, but it didn’t really stand out or leave a lasting impression. One thing that could have been improved was the presentation, especially for the odon and ramen. Having all the ingredients mixed together in one bowl took away from the experience. It would have been much nicer if the components were served separately or on the side, allowing diners to appreciate each separately.

What can I say, a disappointment in taste. Had tasted better ramens in other places, this so far has no taste. Even the smell of the ramen smelled like boiling pork coming out of the pot. Spices seemed mute. The pork bun has a lot of fatty meat not the meat itself. This place needs improvement in their cooking. The staff are welcoming and courteous.

This was the first and last visit for my wife and me. We ordered takeout due to my wife's health conditions. Upon digging into our food, we were greeted with low quality ramen containing pork that was tough, had a strange taste, and was even pink in parts. To make matters worse, it was missing the seasoned egg we had paid extra for. Not only did we have to throw away our entire order, but we both ended up on the toilet less than 45 minutes after consumption. ​ The few staff members I interacted with were very nice. However, the manager's unprofessional choice to only offer a free appetizer on our next visit was an insulting attempt to 'make it right.' ​ I don't like to leave a negative review without offering an alternative: if you want significantly better quality ramen, I recommend Rockin' Ramen off Temecula Parkway or if you want the best romin in socal and are in the Carlsbad area visit Gonzo Romen.

My order took forever and I ordered the seafood soup which was $22 but the only seafood in it was 1 mussel. Definitely not a $22 dish.
