" This place wasn't my first choice, but I’m glad we ended up here. The ramen was solid, but not quite as savory as I had hoped. I would recommend sticking to their house specialties, as those seem to get the most praise from others around us. Overall a pleasant experience, friendly staff. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ramen Belly truly surprised me! It’s one of those rare places where you can find authentic ramen in a suburban neighborhood. I opted for the spicy miso ramen which wasn’t overly spicy and just right for my taste. The service was swift and the environment very laid-back—it felt friendly and inviting. I’m booking a table for my family next week! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at Ramen Belly! They serve the most delightful ramen bowls I’ve tasted in Iowa City. The pork belly has the perfect balance of tender and flavorful, and the broth was rich while not overwhelming. The cozy atmosphere really makes the meal feel special. I will be returning with my family next week! " (*Curated Review*)

I plan on returning soon, with even more people to share the experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Ramen Belly! From the moment we walked in, the cozy atmosphere wrapped us in comfort. The tonkotsu ramen was heavenly—rich and savory with simply perfect noodles. I added extra pork belly and was blown away by how tender and flavorful it was! Our server was incredibly attentive without being intrusive. I can't wait to come back and test out their other menu items. A standout gem in Iowa City! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Ramen Belly based on online reviews and was not left disappointed. The flavors were delightful in the ramen dish I ordered, and the side of house pickles added a tangy kick. This place is great for casual dining, and the staff were very attentive and friendly throughout our meal. Definitely a solid choice! " (*Curated Review*)
