About Menya Ramen House
Menya Ramen House brings authentic Japanese ramen to downtown Metuchen, NJ. Our tonkotsu broth simmers for a full 16 hours — no powders, no bases, no shortcuts — the way a Japanese ramen master taught us. Alongside the best ramen in Middlesex County, we're known for our double-fried Korean fried chicken, hand-glazed in Crispy, Honey Butter, and other signature sauces. Every bowl is finished with roasted marinated chashu pork, wood ear mushrooms, and black garlic oil. Vegetarian and vegan bowls available. Family-run, never corporate — we started in Ridgewood and grew one neighborhood at a time. Open Tuesday–Sunday from 12 PM for lunch and dinner. Dine in or order takeout online direct from our website for the best deal.

Delicious ramen! Very flavorful and exactly what I expected. I highly recommend it and will definitely go back.

This ramen is not authentic. The noodles used are thin and stringy like angel hair pasta. The pork was hard and rubbery. The ginger used on top is not fresh ginger as it was dyed. The portion was small despite the price. Service was great, but they cut corners with the ingredients.

Great ramen. I highly recommend getting the shio ramen without the red onions, and opt for the chicken instead of pork chashu. Skip the karaage and go for the delicious gyoza or takoyaki instead. I generally think tonkotsu is overrated; a light chicken ramen done well (like in here) can taste just as complex and perhaps more elegant. Plus, you get to walk out without feeling like you’ve downed an entire brick. Ordering the shio instead of shoyu or truffle will allow you to maximally enjoy the pristine chicken flavor. I recommend asking for no red onions because it can overpower the broth. Ramen is evaluated on three components: soup, noodle, and toppings. They’ve got the soup down pat. Very flavorful. The noodles had a great bite. For me, mushy noodles is a dealbreaker, so I was very glad to get firm noodles. The only thing they need to improve is the topping. I noticed they struggled with cooking proteins, perhaps because they haven’t figured out the role of salt in changing the structure of muscle fibers. The sous vide chicken was soft but I wouldn’t describe it as juicy, which is what I’d expect from this cooking method. Adding salt to the bag should solve it. The pork chashu

We tried both vegetarian options on the menu, and they were well prepared. The portion sizes were satisfying and the service was good. The flavors were balanced , especially since vegetarian ramen can be hit or miss at many places. That said, I do wish the bowls had been a bit more generous with the vegetables.

Jenna, thank you for the black garlic oil recommendation and thank you for you friendly spirit. You definitely leveled up my DoorDash experience. Highly recommend Shoyu with ajitama, and black garlic oil.. it was 10/10! The chicken was fresh, so were the noddles , and the broth was so amazing it wasn’t oily and it wasn’t too watery it was made just right. Probably the best ramen I’ve ever had in NJ !
