This place is probably the best Japanese place in Tucson . I've enjoyed everything on the menu, my personal favorites are the tonkotsu ramen and sukiyaki chicken. This place is a must , the owners are great people as well
Been going to Ikkyu since it opened. Lori and Hiro are great with a growing staff.
I had the Ramen Tonkatsu bowl and it was the best. This the place for fresh Ramen noodles.
I also recommend the Spicy Tuna Don and the Spicy Tuna Don Volcano Style. ENJOY!
This is place is phenomenal. The food is very authentic and their staff friendly. It gets pretty busy around lunch time, but is totally worth a little bit of standing in line.
Best Ramen in town with an awesome family running the place. They serve it Thursday-Saturday but they serve all kinds of delicious plates like the Spicy Tuna Don, Volcano Style. On point. Been going for a while but finally decided to review. Couldn't recommend this place more.
We have been enjoying ikkyu since opening day! Fresh and delicious food served by the most welcoming folks you will find anywhere. Our children are adults now and and when we are together they always ask for ikkyu...it's our comfort food... good for the body and the soul 🤗
When ever we are even remotely in the area we stop in for some great ramen and the spicy tuna don which is to die for!
Delicious food. Ramen was great. It's only served on Friday-Sunday though. Definitely recommend!
I visit this fine establishment on a weekly basis with a small group of friends, a ritual we've taken up about 6 months ago, and needless to say, there's a reason we keep returning!
The food is nothing less than outstanding, it's always fresh, made quickly, cooked to just the right amount (if the dish warrants it) and overall delicious! (If you're a first timer, try the Special- Chicken Yakisoba, its my favorite!) and the owner (I think she's an owner, its the lovely and sweet older lady there in the evening) is a sweetheart. The rest of the staff are always friendly too, but she in particular always remembers my friends and I, welcomes us when we arrive, and thanks us when we leave!
I have yet to have a remotely negative experience and its one of my ideal dining locations. My only complaint would be how hard it is to find a seat sometimes thanks to its popularity! Give it a try, it won't disappoint!
The food is great, if you're looking for authentic Japanese cuisine this is the place. I highly recommend the ramen, nothing compares!
My favorite restaurant and always my go to when my fiance and i want to go out. Never been disappointed by anything going here. Ramen is amazing, bento boxes are our favorite! Just wish they had a kid size because our 3yo loves it as much as us, just cant eat a big portion. Other than that looove it!
Cannot beat the Tuna Bowls, especially Volcano Style. Great people, great service, great food.
Great homemade ramen served on Thursday thru weekend only! Other great Japanese dishes! Check out their menu can't go wrong with any choice!
Spicy Ramen is the best!! I'm there at least once a week!! Highly recommend!!
The food is good, the kids love the noodles. The serving sizes are huge. The kids loved busing their own table.
Always super impressed with this place! The food is incredible!

Ramen es bueno �������������������
Spicy Tuna Don, volcano style is so yummy and comes with Miso soup. You get a buzzer when you dine-in, but the food came out right away. They have misters if you decide to sit outside.
They are still the best! Missed my beloved Tonkotsu Ramen but decided to try the black Tantanmen ramen and I was not disappointed! Delicious attention to detail and layers of flavor! My son had the spicy volcano style Tuna Don and we shared a Ninja roll so thankful they are still open!
Best Ramen I have ever had. Will absolutely be coming back with friends.
I came here, cause Noddleholics was closed it was my daughter's birthday, and I had no idea what good places for ramen there were. It was fast and tasted good, and it hit the right spot. For the swift change in plans. PS noddleholics was closed due to a shift change. Give this place a shot.
Great service, great food, Spicy Tuna Don volcano style is a must try! Very ADA compliant and accommodating was able to get my scooter inside and sit down with ease when my leg was broken. Does not allow pets inside, however. Luckily there is a pretty comfy, shaded patio with misters that they do allow pets to be.
This is just the same quality of food I received in tokyo. Delicious!
Visited Ikkyu on a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed! The Japanese curry chicken was delightful and the staff were friendly. This quaint restaurant has seating inside and outside under a shaded and misted patio. The restaurant looks to be a favorite takeout location as I saw many people coming in to pick up lunchtime orders. If you are looking for a Japanese restaurant I would give Ikkyu a try.
This is a no frills, order at the counter kind of place. You don’t come for the customer service, you come for the delicious Japanese food. The type of place I imagine Anthony Bourdain visiting and raving about because it was all about the food. We got the tonkotsu ramen, spicy black sesame, shrimp tempura roll, and the ninja roll. It was really good and would definitely come back and recommend to a friend. Everything was delicious.
I moved to CO over a year ago, and still catch myself dreaming over their tuna don volcano style. Can't wait to go back to Tucson for a visit and hit them up daily! The shoyu ramen and inari volcano style were great too. Still to date my favorite Japanese eatery in the US. (:
This place is absolutely amazing. My wife and I shared the tuna don volcano and each had a teriyaki bowl. All incredible. Highly recommended.
Quick service
The volcano bowl with spicy tuna was amazing! They do not skimp on the portions. Very good, would reccomend and would go again.
Easily one of my favorite places to eat. Friendly staff, great food, and reasonable prices. Cute outdoor patio area. Very clean. Menu is posted outside.
I regularly get the most excellent of food from Ikkyu, and I always enjoy it. The ramen is quite good, while I can't speak to how "authentic" it is, I do think it certainly is some of the best Ramen you're going to get in Tucson. Spicy tuna is great, salmon bento box is great, nothing to complain about.
Ramen is legit and delicious. Ramen is only served Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Spicy tuna don volcano style is great too.
Obsessed with the Volcano Don bowls. They are also one of the first in Tucson to be serving authentic ramen consistently. I remember coming here almost a decade ago and they still got it right.
