"If you 're looking for good, (mostly) traditional ramen in Spokane, you gotta give this place a shot. This was my first time eating their food and I was definitely happy with what I got. I ordered the Spicy King Ramen with all the extras (minus extra spicy; I don 't mess with extra spice my first go at a new place) and a side of gyoza. The gyoza was good and the sauce had a nice little bit of a citrus flavor to it like a yuzu sauce. When I finished the side, I wish I had more of them! As for the ramen itself, it was excellent with a couple of notes. First, it wasn 't really what I would consider proper spicy. It was almost what you would call 'spicy adjacent '. Second, it wasn 't quite as rich as I thought it would be. Most traditional ramens I 've had in my life have been more rich and almost creamy with it 's broth, but King of Ramen 's broth was mild and thin with lighter flavor notes which complimented the summer heat I think better than something more dense. Mind you, it wasn 't bad, maybe just not quite up to what I expected it could have been. Speaking of heat, I ordered my ramen to go and it was still piping hot when I got it home which was great! Even on warm, summer days, a good hot ramen lifts your spirits. And there was a lot of it! Easily enough to fill that mid-day, skipped-breakfast hunger but not too dense that it 'll stop you for the day. All that being said, I think it 's a pretty good place to get a quick, tasty ramen at a decent price that shouldn 't disappoint any but the most entitled Karen 's."

"I recently had the pleasure of enjoying lunch at Ramen Taka, and it was quite a delightful experience. Upon arrival, we were pleased to find that there was no wait, and we were promptly seated, which is always a plus when you're hungry and craving some delicious ramen.We decided to start with their miso ramen, and I must say it was a flavorful journey for the taste buds. The broth had a deep, rich flavor that was undeniably enjoyable. However, for our personal taste, it was just a tad on the salty side. The balance between saltiness and umami was slightly skewed towards saltiness, which might not suit everyone's palate.One unique aspect of Ramen Taka is their use of digital menus on your phone. While this adds a modern touch to the dining experience, it can be a little challenging if you're used to the traditional printed menus. It takes a bit of getting used to, but it's a step towards embracing technology in the restaurant industry.One interesting feature I appreciated was the availability of two different sizes for the ramen bowls. This allows diners to choose according to their appetite, which is a thoughtful touch.In terms of logistics, the parking is situated at the back of the store, which can be convenient for those arriving by car. The staff at Ramen Taka were friendly and accommodating, which enhanced our overall dining experience.In conclusion, Ramen Taka offers a satisfying ramen experience with a few quirks. The miso ramen, while delicious, leaned towards being slightly saltier than our preference. The digital menu system might take a bit of getting used to, but it adds a modern twist to the dining experience. If you're in the mood for ramen and don't mind a slightly saltier broth, Ramen Taka is worth a visit, especially if you appreciate the convenience of different bowl sizes and friendly service."
