    THE BEST RAMEN IN THE COUNTRY HAND DOWN. I am a Ramen lover, I try ramen everywhere I go in the world. Michelin Rated… u name it! but this one is one of the best, if not the best I’ve ever had. The owner spent over a year working himself at a ramen shop in Japan and brought not only the ingredients but the whole culture around making something simple at an excellent level of performance.

    Seriously guys, this is top Ramen; if you’re looking for the love and comfort of a proper Ramen bowl, search no further, this is it... Also, great staff and service, owned by a young couple who’s super friendly with easy vibes at all times. Big ups for the chef who actually went to live and work in japan to learn the trade of Ramen. If you’re into a rich broth, proper noodles, and a perfect egg, this is the place, cheers!

    This is the best VEGAN ramen I’ve had!! The broth is just perfect: creamy and not heavy on stomach! The portion is very generous. It’s a very small place, so you would have to wait for a table, but it’s completely worth it.

    Great place, ramen is the best in town. Try and book a reservation, or arrive early as it gets busy. Must try if you like ramen!

    Best Ramen in town. Everything from the music, decor and overall vibe create the perfect atmosphere for Ramen. They’re open to the public on weekends with reservations available via WhatsApp. I’d recommend planning for a short wait before entering but it’s totally worth it!

    As a ramen lover, this is the place to be.... truly outstanding. Everything from there home made ramen noodles, the insanely rich and flavorful broth, to the perfectly cooked and marinaded 6 minute egg. Wow wow wow is all I can say.

    Best Ramen and japanese food in the city. The place is super tiny (like some places to eat ramen in Japan) so better check the availability to eat in there. Also they have another option, your can bought a Ramen Kit this one have all the ingredients to make ramen at home.

    Surprised to find such high quality Japanese food in Guatemala! Bonito captured the essence of what it’s like to eat in Japan perfectly. Even up to serving us beers while we waited in line (And it’s well worth the wait) Great service and vibe 👌🏼

    If you’re looking for a traditional, true to it’s essence, japanese bowl of ramen: this is the place. It immediately transported me back to Japan when I tried it. It’s an explosion of umami and lots of flavors in your mouth. And it’s a veeeeery generous portion. If you’re in Guatemala City, you can’t miss it!!!! They aren’t always open, so be sure to check first if they are.

    This place is a true hidden gem. We visit often and it’s consistently great. Cacho and Loren are great hosts and always make us feel at home. The ramen is delicious and I order the ninja level of spice which is hot but also perfect. Highly recommend!

    Amazing food that will warm your soul. Take a trip into this cozy restaurant, you won’t regret it. Authentic Japanese cooking, I recommend the level 3 spicy Tonkotsu and the dipping noodles! (Tsukemen) Don’t miss out on the black sesame ice cream, it’s sublime to say the least. Extra points for being pet friendly and always rocking great music!

    We cried while eating because it tasted beautiful. The lemonade and the ice cream were exquisite. This is the type of food that should be spread out in Guatemala: quality cozy delicious food.

    this is absolutely my favorite restaurant ever. the vegan ramen is absolutely phenomenal. i'm serious, the food here is the most delicious food i've ever had in my whole entire life. the black sesame ice cream and lemonade are incredible as well. i really can't put into words how amazing the food here is. i'd give it a higher rating if i could. the atmosphere is also really, really nice. the music is really good and the decoration is so cozy and unlike anything i've seen in guatemala. this place is truly special

    I came from the USA and a friend of mine told me about Bonito Ramen. I had the best experience with my order of Shoyu. I loved it.

  • 3/5 Rodrigo A. Villatoro M. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice little place, has a lot of flavore, but when the place is crowded the experiences became a mess I recommend to call before and order advance to resolve that problem enjoy.

  • 5/5 Thomas H. 3 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    I’ve seen London I’ve seen France, I’ve eaten Ramen in Tokyo in my underpants, but this is by far the best I’ve ever had. These people do it all themselves. In Guatemala, there is no infrastructure to support this kind of restaurant, so for it to be authentic (which it is) they make the noodles, broth, eggs (350 a week!), even their sake from scratch right here on the spot. If you can get a table you’ll have an experience you cannot beat, only repeat!

    Great food, one of the best in the city in my humble opinion but I would prefer if staff would treat everyone the same.

😐 The food is good, but the service should improve, the staff doesn't like to assist, you need to call the waiters several times.
