Hakata Ton-ichi - Niles

It was an amazing experience. This really is a place I would recommend to people. Though I wish they'd have a shoyu based ramen since I think all their ramen is miso based.

A Look Into Hakata Tonichi Hakata Tonichi. A fast-food ramen shop with more than just ramen in their menu to satisfy all your possible wants. Located at the “Top of the Glo” in Glorietta 2, this restaurant makes it easily accessible to students, families, and workers alike, even dedicating themselves to serving quality ramen to those even on a light budget. The restaurant opened sometime in June 2019, and ever since it has been a nice restaurant to go to for those who wish to indulge in something expected to be pricey at a cheap cost. When my friends and I went to the store, we were greeted by the loud welcome of all the staff members, and greeted with a colorful and cheery store interior. On one end of the restaurant are the couch seats, and near to said couch seats is a wall with a mural on it. This would be a great photo, if it weren’t for the even more impressive mural on the other end of the restaurant, and having your picture taken here is sure to be an eye-catcher if you were to post it on your social media account. Dining here really gives off the vibe as if you were in a ramen shop in Japan as they played a few J-pop songs over the speakers, however not loud enough to be able to disrupt your meals or conversation. Once me and my companions were seated, on their menus, their famous “essential ramen” or in other words, very affordable ramen, you could basically get one every day, was displayed along with 3 other variants of it. One being the “black” variant, including squid ink in the broth, one being the “red” variant, featuring a little extra spice for those out there looking for a bit of extra heat, and the “miso” variant, which gives the ramen broth a much deeper flavor. The one thing is, with this kind of ramen, you would expect a relatively high price somewhere around the P350 to P400 price range, however the price range of the ramen here? P180 or P220 per bowl! Really affordable, and add to the fact that it’s taste is on par with that of the more costly ramen, it’s a real great deal, giving some real nice bang for your buck. However, if you’re itching for something other than ramen, Hakata Tonichi has got you. They have more than just ramen on their menu. Curry rice meals, rice bowls, a few sushi and entrees, they even have set meals which could be separated into 3 variants, each giving you a bowl of ramen to go with it! One which gives you a bowl of ramen with a rice bowl, another with a rice of your choice, and the “King” set which lets you pick a rice side of your choice, an entree, and a sushi roll of your choice. Now, I may be a fan of ramen, but I have to say, their curry is pretty great as well, even having different toppings to go with it such as shrimp, pork cutlet, chicken, and hamburger. While this does seem like a tempting offer, the price range for the curry plates are just slightly higher than the ramen bowls at P260 to P290. Or maybe you don’t like the taste of curry or just want some rice with sides? They got your back! Hakata Tonichi has rice bowl meals as well if you don’t feel like having ramen or curry. Hakata Tonichi seems to be one of those places which I thoroughly enjoy the atmosphere, the food, and the service as well. It’s in a mall with a lot of different activities available to do, so if you’re eating out with friends or family, once you finish, there is just a huge variety of activities to do, which makes it perfect for a get-together.

The food for the working class The ambiance of the restaurant was really inviting and a good place to rest as well as a comforting feel after a day of work where a person could just talk with their friends a just bond there. The food in the restaurant was really good and the serving is big enough to make a person very full having a whole ramen bowl along with a curry rice and iced tea only for 320 pesos. the cheese gyoza was 160 pesos for 5 pieces which tasted really good. There is also a combo where you would get a ramen and a donburi only for 420 pesos where surely the person who would eat this meal will be full and delighted. A price of 100+ to 200+ for a meal and 320 to 500+ for a combo meal. The overall meal was cheap at 480 pesos where the person who would order all this would surely be too full to even have a desert after the meal.

First thing, the interiors are absolutely lovely, would want to know the artist na gumawa ng walls nyo. Their ramen was very good for the price, and my bf loved the miso ramen. Salmon roll and the gyoza are relatively cheaper but they taste good. Minor comment lang sa gyoza, finely grate your ginger instead of mincing, kasi may nakagat akong cube. Everything went well with a glass of beer. Will definitely come back.
