Akai Ramen & Izakaya is a delightful find in downtown Salem! 🌟 The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it perfect for a casual meal.

I tried the black garlic ramen, and it was a flavor explosion - rich and comforting! The chasu was delicious, and the portion sizes are generous for the price. We also ordered takoyaki, which was a fun treat!

The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, immediately assisting with dietary preferences. If you're in the mood for some good ramen and a friendly vibe, this is the place! I’ll definitely be back for more. 🍜✨
