I wanted to eat at a restaurant I’d never tried and find a place in Honolulu. As with many searches online, I Googled Ramen Saimin in Honolulu. One of the first restaurants on the list was Hokkaido Ramen Santouka. I didn’t know what part it was on Kaheka street, so I walked in both directions. After careful review, the pictures looked close to the Don Quijote store on Kaheka. Sure enough, the restaurant is in between many of the eateries surrounding the Don Quijote store. No one was in the restaurant when I went there at about 2:15 pm on a Saturday. I had probably just missed the lunch crowd. It was good for me because I didn’t want to wait to get seated. My intent was to try their Ramen and write an article about my experience there.
My first impression of Hokkaido Ramen Santouka was skeptical at first. The place was nice and clean, but I was still skeptical. The server may have had a long day, and I didn’t want to judge the restaurant based on the server’s customer service. I try not to let that be a factor in my experience at a restaurant. I saw great reviews online, so I decided to try it. I had the Char Siu Shoyu Ramen. I wasn’t sure if I’d like it, so I took the small. Within five to ten minutes, my Ramen was gone. There were many five-star reviews online. Sure enough, I would give it a five-star rating also. There was no wait time. The food was delicious, and the place was clean.
Final Thought
The restaurant is in the shopping center of Don Quijote on Kaheka street in Honolulu between many of the eateries. Next time you’re in town, check out the Hokkaido Ramen Santouka in the shopping mall next to Don Quijote on Kaheka street. Almost every review on Google had a five-star rating. They received another five-star rating from me.
