Whether you’re in the mood for a classic miso ramen, spicy variations, or a bento set with gyoza and karaage, the menu has something for every kind of craving. In this blog post, we’ll explore Ichiban Ramen menu, pricing, current promotions, best-selling items, outlet locations, operating hours, and share our honest review.
I recently dropped by the Pavilion KL outlet of Ichiban Ramen for lunch, drawn by their halal-certified chicken‑based ramen options (no pork, no alcohol) and friendly “eat clean, live zen” philosophy. I tried the Rich Chicken Ramen with Ajitama, and the broth delivered a warm, savoury depth with subtle miso undertones, complemented by a perfectly soft-boiled egg and springy noodles. The chicken chashu—made from halal‑certified chicken breast—was tender but lean; I personally found it slightly under-seasoned, though the broth carried enough flavour to balance it out. The restaurant’s compact layout, rustic wooden décor, and tatami-style seating gave off a relaxing, casual vibe—ideal for a solo meal or quiet catch-up.
On another visit to their Penang branch (AEON Seberang Prai), I opted for the Seafood Ramen Set (around RM21), which came with prawns, mussels, squid rings, and a side of gyoza. The seafood was fresh and the broth had punch, though it leaned buttery and slightly oily for my liking—still quite comforting. Portion sizes were generous and the ramen noodles held their bounce well even after a few photo ops. I also tried their Mubarak Set in IOI City Mall, which paired a Spicy Chicken Ramen with sides like karaage and gyoza for about RM27. While the karaage was decent and gyoza average, the ramen was the star: bold, spicy, and flavourful—though still not quite as complex as ramen from premium shops like Maruki or Seirock‑ya. Overall, Ichiban Ramen delivers consistent, halal-friendly Japanese comfort at approachable prices—with clean, efficient service making it a reliable go-to for casual dine-in or a group lunch.
