" Honestly, I expected more from Kanji Ramen after hearing so much praise. While the food was good, it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. I found the broth to be slightly bland, and the portions were on the smaller side for the price. The service was decent, but not overly memorable. It’s a nice spot, but I think I would try somewhere else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely incredible food at Kanji Ramen! Everything from the broth to the toppings was incredible. The katsu was as satisfying as the ramen, and everything was cooked to perfection. Seats are limited, but the cozy vibe makes it worth it. It’s a great place for a casual dinner. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kanji Ramen is a charming little restaurant that truly feels like a hidden gem. The ramen is undoubtedly authentic, and you can taste the quality in every bite. I particularly enjoyed the tender pork in my bowl. The ambiance is very laid-back, making it a great spot to unwind. My service was prompt and friendly. I hope they maintain their quality over time as I plan to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried their signature ramen and it was good, but I’ve had better elsewhere. The service was fast, but the vibe was a little too busy for my taste. I was expecting a more relaxed atmosphere. Portions were decent, but overall, I think not all the hype is justified. Still, it’s a solid option for a quick ramen fix. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an okay experience at Kanji Ramen. The ramen was pretty good, but I felt like it lacked some unique flavor that would have made it stand out. It’s a nice cozy spot, and the staff was friendly, but for me, it was more of a one-time visit unless I'm in the area again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Kanji Ramen multiple times, and it has become my go-to spot in Austin! The ramen is authentic, bursting with fresh flavors. The staff members treated me with kindness and care each time I visited. The atmosphere is just the right mix of bustling and cozy. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious ramen! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Kanji Ramen, but my experience was average at best. The ramen lacked a robust flavor, and while the service was friendly, it wasn't enough to elevate my meal. The atmosphere was cozy but felt a bit crowded for my liking. I may consider trying a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)
