Ichiro Sapporo Ramen

Nestled in the heart of Dallas at 2555 Inwood Rd, Ichiro Sapporo Ramen offers an authentic journey into the rich, comforting world of Japanese ramen. Specializing in Sapporo-style ramen—a culinary tradition known for its robust miso-based broths and hearty noodles—this ramen restaurant masterfully balances flavor, texture, and warmth to satisfy every craving for soulful, satisfying meals.

Ichiro’s menu boasts an exciting array of standout dishes that highlight the best of Japanese comfort food. The Spicy Miso Ramen is a crowd favorite, delivering a luscious, spicy kick intertwined with creamy miso depth and perfectly chewy thick noodles that soak up every drop of the rich broth. Another not-to-miss is the Spicy Tonkatsu Seafood Ramen, where tender seafood mingles beautifully with the smoky, pork-based tonkotsu broth, layered with tantalizing spices that awaken your palate. If you prefer something with an extra punch of flavor, their Tan Tan Ramen and Red Curry Ramen offer vibrant, bold tastes that won't disappoint.

Complementing the ramen is a tempting selection of traditional appetizers and sides that truly elevate the dining experience. Crispy and succulent Chicken Karaage provides the perfect bite of crunchy, juicy goodness, while the Gyoza arrives with a delicate, savory filling wrapped in a delightfully crispy shell. For those intrigued by unique textures, the Takoyaki Crispy Octopus Balls offer a playful and flavorful snack that cracks open to reveal tender octopus coated in a golden, crisp batter. Don’t miss the Garlic Scented Edamame or the decadent Steam Buns with Pork Belly, which are soft, pillowy, and rich with melt-in-your-mouth pork belly.

Diners have also been raving about the Tonkotsu Kuro Ramen, where the intense, smoky broth-richly complements the generous slices of pork belly, and the flavorful Soy Garlic Chicken Wings that deliver a savory punch. For those who want a lighter twist, the Poke Bowl adds freshness and balance to the otherwise rich menu offerings.

Ending your meal with a sweet note, Ichiro’s Mochi Ice Cream is a perfect choice—small, round dessert balls encasing creamy ice cream inside a soft, chewy rice cake shell, available in flavors like green tea, strawberry, mango, and black sesame that leave a delicate sweetness on the palate.
