Excellently delicious!
This kit is great. It's out of stock quite often and now I know why haha.
I highly recommend it if you like real ramen noodles these are legit.

Pretty good, but..
My husband and I enjoyed this kit but I think he liked it more. I felt the dehydrated corn seemed a little stale and didn't become the normal consistency I was hoping for based on reviews I read. I did enjoy the noodles, but the broth wasn't as flavorful as I hoped for. Overall, I wouldn't mind trying another kit in the future.

I gave this as a Christmas present and my daughter loved it. She’s a beginner cook and appreciated how simple it was to make, as well as inspiring.

Wonderful!
I couldn’t wait to try this once it arrived, and was not disappointed! My husband loved it as well. I made the whole kit, and we had leftovers for a couple of days - it tasted just as fantastic reheated as the day I originally made it. I made it exactly as it came, but you can experiment with all kinds of add ins, or maybe different kinds of mushrooms, etc. And the chili oil that was included in the kit is my new favorite condiment - I’ve used it on all kinds of foods and it seems to work with everything. I will always keep this in the house, and I will order another kit soon. I also can’t wait to try some new kits - I’m very impressed with this company and the high quality of these kits and how far they go to ensure they are as authentic as possible.

So Easy to Make a Fun Meal
This was so simple to make. I loved it. However there are an abundance of mushrooms. It was perfect for me, but not sure if my husband was as much of a fan...he is not big on mushrooms. Very tasty!!!

A Perfect Gift for Food Lovers!!!
A perfect gift to send to a friend far away! It was so convenient for me to create the meals. Initially, I thought the meals would be a combination of ingredients sent to me with lots of preservatives. However, they were actual ingredients I could buy in a store. I was able to try different kinds of foods, and the portions were easily for 3-4 people. Hands down I would buy these again for myself and for friends who are students farther away.

Great Flavors, Easily Portioned
All the family enjoyed this meal kit, even the kids! It was packaged in such a way that it could easily be split into single servings (there were 4 bundles of noodles and 4 packets for the broth). We didn't add any protein and still found it to be a filling meal.

As Good As It Gets
As foodies, my husband and I love to dine out. However, our selection of delicious and authentic restaurants is quite limited in our new home. In search of delicious ramen without the 1.5 hour commute we decided to try this kit. For the price and portion given, it was enough for two people to enjoy not only for dinner, but also lunch as leftovers.
First, the box came within two days (in time for Saturday date nights)! The box setup is appealing and laid out beautifully. The steps included are simple and clear. Now, what I did the night before was marinate pork belly strips and soft boiled eggs. Also, I went to the local Asian store to purchase Kamaboko aka naruto :fish_cake: and other Japanese items to make our meal even more special. In the end we both loved the ramen as it was simply delicious! I can’t wait to try our pad thai box next weekend!

It’s Possible to Make this Vegetarian
I gave the Tonkotsu soup base to a friend and slowly caramelized two onions in lemon infused olive oil, added 4 cups of vegetable broth and 4 cups water and then followed the recipe as written. The broth was so flavorful. No spice for my husband; lots of spice for me. It was SO GOOD! I would get this kit again in a heartbeat.

So, so delicious
This Ramen was SO good. We even bought pork belly, tofu and roast beef as proteins, but ended up only adding eggs as it was so flavorful on its own. We were super pleasantly surprised, and there was enough to have seconds/leftovers. The broth is so rich and yummy, and the instructions make it super easy to follow along. My husband actually made the perfect soft boiled eggs for the first time ever. The ingredients are of super good quality as well. I can't wait to try out other stuff as I just ordered this to try out TakeOutKit, but now we're fans.

Loved the Tonkotsu Ramen Kit!
This kit was awesome! Bought a pork tenderloin for the protein and the whole kit was so easy to make! It was nice to have the ingredients separated so everyone chose what they wanted in their dish! Family loved this meal!

Tonkatsu Ramen
This meal kit was delicious. It tasted like authentic Japanese Ramen. It was so nice to have all the special spices and ingredients right at hand instead of having to search for them in specialty stores.

Simple to make, but full of flavor!
A great dish overall. I loved the suggestion of adding an egg! I opted to add tofu as my protein and it was great! It is good on its own, but you can definitely add your own style (other vegetables, toppings, etc)

Excellent!
I had been looking for healthy meal kits for some time, but my daughter and I really love flavorful ethnic foods and I was having a hard time finding anything’s no to fill the bill. When I searched for flavorful ethnic meal kits (I don’t recall my exact search language) I found Takout Kits. Their kits were exactly what I was looking for, so I decided to try one before subscribing. I’d been craving udon from a restaurant I live in New York, and this dish looked very similar so I decided to try it.
I’m so glad I did because this ramen dish is so incredibly delicious! The instructions were clear and it was easy and fast to prepare. We used frozen, all natural pre-cooked grilled chicken that I sautéed with some of the spices from the “spicy” packet provided. It was all so tasty and the broth is amazing! It is restaurant worthy, seriously. It easily makes 4+ generous servings so we had some leftovers for lunch! I highly recommend this dish and will definitely be getting it regularly. I can’t wait to subscribe and try the other recipes! Thank you for helping this mom serve tasty food!

Tastes like I’m back in Tokyo!
Making and eating this kit was a delicious way to relive some of our experiences in Japan earlier this year—and it was all so easy to do! Warm noodles in broth are so comforting and filling, and I loved that I could customize each bowl with the different add-ins the kit has (plus my own eggs). There was nothing hard or complicated to prepare the food, and the little packet of spices helps set the meal apart from what I might otherwise be able to do on my own.

Easiest way I've found to make authentic-tasting ramen!
I adore ramen--both the instant noodle kind and the more authentic kind you can get at small Japanese restaurants--and in the past I've tried to teach myself how to make a more "homemade" version for my husband and I after finding the noodles at a local Japanese grocery store. After combining together a few "easy" recipes I found online I managed to pull off a decent version of ramen that my husband adored, but it was time intensive and had a lot of steps I had to juggle at the same time, so I rarely wanted to make it.
This ramen kit has SAVED ME. Their version has fixed the two biggest problems that have plagued me when trying to make ramen completely on my own. One, they have some soup base packets that when simmered with water taste like a traditional simmered broth, and ended up being easier AND better tasting than the complicated mix I had come up with myself. Two, they provided plenty of toppings, none of which needed much fuss or chopping--preparing toppings often took me a half an hour or more alone! This version is so easy that I spent half the cooking time just sitting and talking with my mom while stuff was cooking on the stove.
The ramen was a huge hit with my family, too. My mom said this is one of her favorite kits yet, and my husband seemed super pleased to have homemade ramen again. This is the closest I've gotten to the ramen from my favorite Japanese chefs in town at home!
Definitely try to have some meat cooked ahead of time to serve with the ramen--I forgot to do that with my first time, which was a shame. I gave everyone two hardboiled eggs instead of one and that worked just fine, but I know from experience that having some sliced chicken or pork can really add to a bowl of ramen.
I can't stop gushing over this kit enough. Thank you for creating a simple, delicious version of one of my favorite meals!
