Kizuki Ramen

Kizuki Ramen serves Tokyo-style ramen built on roasted-bone pork and chicken broths. Signature bowls include Garlic Tonkotsu, an extra-rich pork broth with plenty of garlic, and Yuzu Shio Ramen, a lighter broth with a citrus finish. Bones are roasted before boiling, and some ingredients are imported from Japan when US substitutes fall short. The menu also includes tsukemen dipping noodles, tonkatsu, karaage rice bowls and a vegetarian ramen.

The Bellevue restaurant is one of several Washington locations, with others in Seattle, Lynnwood, Tacoma and Renton. Less-sodium versions of most ramen are available, and there is a vegetarian option on the menu. Online ordering is offered, and gift cards can be bought online or looked up on the website.
