Ramen Cubed - Willits, California

A great find! The White Miso Chicken was fantastic. The broth was rich, the chicken perfectly cooked, the noodles were fresh, and presentation was really kinda gorgeous. It's a cozy spot with just a few tables. Great, friendly service and a great meal.

We wanted to try something new, so we came here. The staff were exceptional in explaining the foods and even letting us taste the sake. The food was full of flavor and delicious! We loved the tapa salmon and the seared scallop large plate. The only downside is that it is not an intimate restaurant. The tables are small, and you sit on a stool or a bench. But the food - wow! Amazing!

We enjoyed the food and the service. We just got done hiking and this really hit the spot! Cozy comfortable place for a meal.

The system of one employee cooking and serving didn’t work last night. My ramen noodles had a strange texture, biting into whole peppercorns took over the flavor of the dish. There was no presentation, usually the salmon is placed on the top of the dish not lost at the bottom. $24 for this? I don’t know if I’ll eat here again

This place is great! We got seared ahi, seared scallops, and braised pork belly tapas, and shared a seared scallop ramen bowl, with extra egg and extra noodles. Omg soooo good. You'll want to roll in their broth, and chug a gallon of their chimichurri. Everything was super flavorful and cooked perfectly!

The staff was really friendly, and as an added bonus, they were playing Beach Boys while we ate, and that was fun!

I want to try the whole menu!

Best place ever! The girls who work here are so nice and such a great chef! Fresh veggies, perfectly cooked meats and fish. Definitely one of the best places I have ever been. Even better than the fanciest place u can go.

We had the tonkatsu ramen, it was very nice! The pork and broth was flavorful. The two staff are very nice and clearly working hard. We are new residents to Willits, moved from LA. It's nice to have a unique place like this in town, we will definitely be back and I recommend you give it a chance.

It’s not everyday a small town like Willits gets itself a Ramen joint!
To start I have been to this restaurant two times and ordered take away once in order to provide a fair review.
The Good:
1. The pork ramen broth! The pork broth probably couldn’t get any better. I cannot attest to any of the other broths as I have stuck with what I know and I know it’s dang near perfect. High ratings for that!
2. The marinated egg. It adds an almost boozy rich flavor to the broth.
3. Staff seems nice and service was not lacking.
4. Location. Easy to find in downtown Willits right beside the movie theater. Free parking too!
5. The ahi Tuna tapas is fairly priced and extremely tasty.
6. The meat in the various orders of ramen has been perfectly cooked. I’ve had chicken, scallop, and tonkatsu. All great!

There wouldn’t be light without dark….
The Bad
1. The noodles. I don’t know what is going on but the last two times I’ve had ramen from here the noodles have been extremely doughy. No spring to them at all, just mush!
2. The prices. I don’t normally mention prices in “the bad” part of my reviews but I have to on this one. $25 ($28 if you’re using Door Dash) for a bowl of scallop ramen. I got exactly 3 small scallops, one egg, and a few sliced veggies. At least throw in some mushrooms or something to justify the expense! It’s more than I’ve ever paid for Ramen, even in San Francisco. It’s ramen…
3. Tiny place, bathroom is located outside.

Overall I am very happy that the humble town of Willits has some variety in the restaurant department. I think this restaurant is worth trying if you’re in the area.
