Local Flavor: Tamashii Ramen Edmond offers flavorful Japanese fare

Chances are, you might have had ramen before – it’s a popular and affordable meal, particularly among college students. The noodle dish originates from Japan and can come in dozens of different varieties. While most of the ramen we eat tends to be of the instant or cup-noodle flavor, traditional ramen has the capacity to blow your socks off.

And this is exactly what Tamashii Ramen Ya – located at 132 E. 5th St. in Edmond – offers with its signature bowls. You can sample some of their delicious dishes as well as an assortment of other options, like takoyaki (fried octopus dumplings), chashudon (braised pork, fried rice) and mochi ice cream. We recommend the tonkotsu garlic ramen with a side of gyoza (potstickers filled with pork and cabbage)!

Tamashii Ramen Ya is open from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM Tuesday through Thursday, 11:00 AM to 10:30 PM on Friday and Saturday, and 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Sunday. They are closed on Monday.
