I was so excited to try this ramen when I first saw it because it looked like authentic Japanese ramen. I’m always looking for a good pork based broth ramen(tonkotsu ramen). I finally had the chance to try it and… so so disappointed. The pork broth was bland & lacking any sort of depth of flavor. The soy sauce flavor was so-so. I want to believe this was a bad day & am debating whether to go give it another chance…

I’ve tried this truck a couple times… each time I would regret buying… the noodles were overcooked. The broth(I had the pork broth both times) had a weird stench to it. I was going to give this food truck a 2 star but I want to give it another chance and try other offerings. If there was a competing truck out there that did it right, this truck might improve it’s quality/taste, but there is none.

Go to their website to figure out where they are. I had the ‘Devil Ramen’ which comes with any of the outher soup bases but dialed up anywhere from 1 – 10. I ordered a ‘Piggy Ramen’ at a heat level of 5. WOW!!! Other than it was flippin’ cold out and I had to sit in my car, ITWASDELICIOUS! Best Ramen I have ever had.

When it’s a cold, rainy night in Salt Lake City(and even when it’s not) and you and your honey are craving ramen, but Tosh’s is already closed(because 8:00 is way too early to close for dinner, in my opinion) and Kobe has a 2-hour wait(as they typically do this time of year), and you want your ramen NOW, The Ramen Mobile is the answer. I’ve visited this cute mother-daughter two twice now at the SOHO Food Park and the second time was even better than the first. Both the Piggy(tonkotsu) and Happy(shoyu) ramens are good, Happy being my favorite and making it Devil-syle(aka Sriracha overload).

Ramen Mobile is one of the food truck started this year in town. The mobile concept reminds me of the ramen food carts on the street of Japan. Quality was still a long shot in comparison. They are the more active food trucks in town that maintain consistency on their schedule and social media updates. The ramen quality is not exactly the best in town, since the noodles, the meat, and the egg were all subpar. Broth was the only good thing in the ramen. Noodles tasted like the packaged ones you get from grocery store. The boiled meat could be a regional style thing. The eggs were just hard boiled, not the soft boiled ones you get at an actual ramen place. Corn was an interesting garnish, it reminds me of ramen from the Hokkaido region, and I know some people who would love corn in their ramen. In all fairness, it would be an upgrade for somebody that had only eaten Top Ramen or Cup Noodles their whole life, but if you at least had the ones in the town, you would know they are definitely below the restaurant quality ramen from Tosh or Kobe. Mobility seems to be the only benefit I see from them.

Overall a yummy solid ramen contender. And I will be back for sure. That said… On a scale of 1 – 101 being packaged .20 ramen and 10 totally amazing authentic Japanese ramen, this would fall on at a 6. I got the piggy ramen. The broth was cloudy and rich but not quite as gelatinous as truly authentic stuff. But the flavor was good and certainly delicious enough to keep me eating. The ramen noodles were very fresh and perfectly cooked to just last al dente. The slice of pork was tender but not mushy, had good pork flavor but not much more as far as the flavor profile. The biggest disappointment was my egg — very hard boiled to be point of being green around the yolk. The bowl included sprouts and corn — two things I don’t usually don’t get in ramen. Overall the bowl was yummy, the service was very friendly and fast, and I will be back again. It won’t transport me to Japan — but a decent bowl of ramen that comes to me isn’t a bad thing.

I was born and raised in Japan and still visit yearly, I enjoy good Japanese style ramen. My wife and I went to Mulligans last week just to try The Ramen Mobile, I ordered the Devil ramen with miso based soup, the noodles were just OK, I understand the need to use prepackaged noodles for a mobile restaurant, no problem, the soup was bland and I’m pretty sure that they just added a bit of Sriracha hot chili sauce for the heat which is not the correct flavor for Japanese ramen. The roast pork, egg and vegetables were all very nice, the cup was filled just a little over half full. The two young ladies taking orders and cooking were also very nice and the ramen came out fast. If the soup base were a bit more flavorful and the correct Japanese spice sauce was used that would be a huge improvement, fill the Styrofoam cup a bit more full and it would be a definite winner.

I’m eating this, while I write this review. I have the Devil, at 10 with the miso broth. The broth for this is just right. The flavor is not overwhelmingly«fish» as some miso has been in my experience. The egg, the noodles and the pork were all cooked to my liking: Slightly soft hard-boiled on the egg Just a little passed al dente on the noodles Juicy, not mushy pork. Their spicy scale for the Devil is 1 – 10, in my opinion they could go to 11. All in all, mighty fine ramen. I have already recommended this to my co-workers, I recommend it to you.

This is one of the better ramen I’ve had. I love the pork bone broth and the freshness of the noodles. Nicely priced at $ 7.25 this will get you happily full.

I don’t know much about traditional ramen, and I’m not a fan of the packaged stuff. But Ramen Mobile’s lunch is SO yummy. I had the Nummy Ramen(which is a miso paste base) with all the toppings — it was a huge portion, served piping hot, and really delicious. I thought the noodles were a good texture, the pork slice was very tender and smoky, and the egg was a nice touch. I hope Ramen Mobile comes back every Friday — that would be a great weekly meal!

I love ramen and a food truck seems like a great delivery method for this delicious comfort food. I was beyond thrilled when I saw the truck outside my office today. Unfortunately the ramen mobile did not deliver the quality/flavor that I desire. I tried the pork bone ramen. There was no line at the truck, and the employees were very nice and courteous. My problem with the ramen is the flavor and ingredients used. The broth is very bland, it did not have much flavor at all. Certainly did not carry the Salty, Savory, Umami flavor that I was craving. The noodles were overcooked and mushy. The vegetables were tasty but almost none existent. The egg is hard and looks like it has been sitting in a warm truck all morning. The pork did not have any flavor, was pretty dry, and there was only was small piece. Overall the food was decent. Ramen is so tasty it is hard to truly ruin. This truck has been open for 2 weeks, and I am really hoping they can improve there service. I will be back in hopes that they do.
