This service here is sometimes great and sometimes bad (to the point I left the yesterday since no one was giving there menu and there weren't really a lot of people).

In terms of food, the food and price is ok. Satisfies my Japanese food craving. I don't get raw stuff here. I usually get the curry, agedashi tofu, and ramen.

The spicy tofu and maki are great! They serve unlimited house tea. Ajisen ramen is good for sharing. Katsu, Karaage, and Vegetable tempura are good too.

This place is a hidden gem. They have a nice ambience and very friendly staff. The kani salad was tasty but very less kani. The california maki was good. The service green tea was nice treat. A quick Japanese treat in busy Ortigas.

Serving is alright. Price is similar with the other ramen places. Weird thing for me is that they use pasta noodles for their ramen but the taste nonetheless, is good enough to warm up a cold night.

Kung gusto mo ng ramen house or japanese resto around Ortigas Center, this is the place. Sosyala ang aura ng place. May pagka pricey rin. Madaming kumakain dito during lunch weekday at konti naman kapag weekend. Madalas kami dito kapag weekend dahil walking distance lang, saka nakakatamad magluto. Hahaha! Abt their ramen, I think hindi sya yung hand-pulled or authentic na noodles. Parang naka pack spaghetti noodles lang. Tried yung iba't ibang ramen nila, di ko madistinguish yung pinagiba iba ng mga lasa parang pare parehas lang. Sorry to say ha pero opinion ko lang. Makanin kanin pero okay naman. Masarap spicy tuna. I also like their cold tea and kani salad. Sabi ng friend ko masarap daw yung sabaw ng ramen.

Service is fast. They provide service tea while you wait for your food. Food was served less than 10 minutes. We were in a hurry when we visited because we have work, luckily, they serve food fast! And the food, sooo delicious!!! It's kind of pricey, our bill was 1000php for two heads. We ordered two rice meals and a ramen we shared because the serving can be good for two.

I saw this Ramen house near my workplace and I got curious so I tried it out. The interior of the place is really nice. It is located at the back of Family Mart where we pass through going to and fro Garnet Road.

I tried their House Specialty - Ajisen Ramen and it tastes pretty good. The broth of the Ramen has this unique flavor and it's not that salty. The noodles were al-dente. The price is also competitive. I also ordered their Don Buri Gyudon and it's delicious. It maybe a bit sweet for others but for me, it's just right.

Ironically enough, I have never tried the Ramen from this place. But for all intents and purposes, this is a solid Japanese joint found in the heart of Ortigas. They have generous portions, an array of sushi and maki dishes, and all at a reasonable (relative to other Japanese restaurants) price. The interiors are very refreshing, and the service is always top-notch. Tip - look for Ryan, he'll never fail in giving you VIP treatment! Will surely go back to try the ramen.

Ajisen Ramen serves delicious Ramen at an affordable price of 290-400 pesos. The soup is not as full bodied as the best Ramen I've tasted but the flavor is sufficient enough. Hindi nakakaumay. The place is clean and the crews are attentive. I ordered Chasu Ramen at 345 pesos. The meat serving is generous.

It's my second time to eat here at Ajisen Ramen, and unfortunately, the first experience wasn't that positively memorable. Glad to have given it another try though, as the second visit redeemed this restaurant for me.

The key was that I didn't order their ramen anymore, as their version was in my top 5 of not-so-authentic-Ramen list. Customer service also slightly improved versus before when the staff and even the manager seemed like they couldn't care less 😕

Anyway, I ordered the Spicy Tuna Sashimi and Kani Salad this time. The former had a good spicy kick, the fish seemed fresh and there was more of the tuna versus the tempura flakes. This version was one of the most satisfactory spicy tuna sashimi that I've tasted. On the other hand, the Kani Salad was a perfect complement to avoid "suya" from the sashimi.

What added to the positive experience was the moderate price and good-serving size. Ambiance and service were so-so.

Nevertheless, willp definitely back, not only because restaurant options near the office are quite limited (but that's a honestly a big factor haha), but because now I've discovered where to get my Spicy Tuna Sashimi fix next time 😊

A better place to eat when you dont want common resto along F.Ortigas jr(former Emerald avenue). Its between garnet and f.ortigas jr rd so you might have difficulty finding it if you are not from the area. Tried chasu with gohan rice for my dinner, and it seems just ok. Will try ramen the next visit.

My friend and I had dinner at Ajisen Ramen last week. Honestly, it's a little difficult to look for especially if you aren't familiar with Ortigas post office.

I had a bowl of Kon Ajisen Ramen while my friend went basic with Ajisen Ramen. We shared an order of Gyoza as side dish.

The broth of Ajisen ramen is milkier compared to the ramen I'm used to. However, I appreciate the mild taste of this ramen. The gyoza wasn't bad too.

The service is excellent as the staff was refilling our cups with green tea the whole time and the prices are not bad. I would love to go back to try more items on their menu should I crave again for Japanese food.

My sister and I were in a super hungry state earlier tonight so we tried Ajisen in Emerald. It was our first time to try it here and had low expectations. We ordered a bowl each of the Kon ramen (Chashu and Corn) and shared an order of America Dreams sushi just because we were so hungry. The sushi wasn't a forgot-what-my-name-is yummy level but it was a good enough value for money (better than Teriyaki Boy or Tokyo Tokyo sushi, if you ask me). As for the ramen, again considering its price point, it was okay. Pork was tender and tonkotsu broth was not too oily or fat so that's good. Noodles were firm enough for me, probably 7/10. Overall, it was a good experience and I see myself coming back here. 👌🏻

They have a new branch in Ortigas and it is quite difficult to find especially if you are not from there. They are located on the side of the OCAI building, so you would notice only if you pass through between Garnet and Emerald roads.

Anyway, I am surprised they have a new menu. One of which is Kakuni (stewed pork) ramen. The pork, which has been cooked for several hours, is very tender. The soy sauce flavor spreads throughout the dish. The noodles are chewy as well. A good dish and can be an option to your favorite ramen here.

We often order Chanko Nabe, their hotpot, and was surprised to see they have a Kimchi version of it. My wife ordered it thinking there were glass noodles inside but there was none. The spiciness is just right, giving comfort and warmth to the body. You can choose pork or chicken. We chose chicken and was glad that many pieces are skinless.

On the side, we had the fried stuffed mushroom, which is some meat stuffed shiitake mushroom and coated in tempura batter and fried. A light dish. For dessert, finally the mochi red bean ice cream is available. It's made with a little shaved ice, a few mochi rice balls, red beans and topped with ice cream. I loved it as a way to cap the meal. It was cool and refreshing.

This is just a few minutes-worth of stroll from my workplace. We've been here quite a few times and if the food doesn't make you come back, it's their welcoming servers. Even if the place is packed with people, you get your food in less than 10 minutes. I first tried their ajisen ramen, and their tuna maki. The soup was a bit duller than I was hoping for it to be (maybe because I came there first thing in the afternoon?) but the sushi was fresh. Though, the next time I ate there, the ramen tasted better.

Whenever me and my husband eat in Japanese restaurants, we almost always order katsudon as our meal. Me and my workmates were looking forward to Ajisen Ramen. They were on their soft opening when I was able to try it out with my husband. I was late for work for around 20 minutes that day, and when it was already my lunch time, my husband sent me a text message that he was waiting for me at Ajisen Ramen. A treat for me because I was late for work. Hihi! The katsudon was great, it was worth it for the price of 265php. An hour lunch wasn't enough for me to finish it, so I had to take it out. Sadly they just put it in a plastic, I was expecting it to be in a styrofoam at least. The ebi tempura was also great in taste, the price though on their menu was 185php, when we asked for the bill, it was 285php, they said it was a typo error. If I didn't have go back to the office right away, I wouldn't allow it that I'd be charged for something that wasn't my fault. My husband just shrugged it off. Yuzu juice was a first for me, probably I wasn't used to an apple citrus drink with a bit of a bitter flavor, but it tastes good.
