Top 3 Ramen Joints in Nashville
We searched for more than just 3 places that make Ramen in Nashville but there just aren’t that many that do it. Yes, there are places like The Treehouse that have served Ramen but it isn’t a specialty. Also, many places serve Udon or Pho, and while they are similar to Ramen, they ain’t Ramen. Finally, some places did indeed have a bowl or two of this magical hangover cure on their menus but we wanted to focus on places that have a wider selection.
So this is what you get. But we’ll be honest, this is a pretty good selection. If we have left a place out let us know and we will go check it out!
Black Dynasty Secret Ramen House
Black Dynasty Secret Ramen House started out of a house on the east side making five courses for 10 people, it turned into restaurant takeovers with 300 people waiting in line in 25-degree weather, now they are at BAR SOVEREIGN TUE-SUN 5 pm-10 pm
They make EVERYTHING in-house, fresh noodles, tare, broths, toppings, oils. They also infuse their creations with a bit of southern magic.
