I had the Deluxe Ramen and it was fantastic! The broth has a fantastic flavor and was served very hot. The pork was also cooked very well. The service was a little slow, seemed to be due do the kitchen but the food and wait staff is definitely worth it!

Our first time visiting Asheville. We tried Itto for lunch. We were grateful that they allowed us to bring our dog inside given the freezing temperatures. We had the classic ramen, spicy ramen, and deluxe ramen, char su scallion pancakes, and gyoza. All were delicious. High recommend!!

I’m not usually the type to write bad reviews but the service was not good—the food was okay. The staff was extremely unprofessional and not kid friendly. We had a small child in our party who was playing with his other brother and we were told to “control our child” which did not end well to say the least.

We are Itto regulars, for dine in and take out, but tonight was a miss. The restaurant was not busy when we arrived. We did take out with 2 ramens, 2 tapas, and 2 orders of mochi. We also ordered 1 extra ramen egg. We checked the bag before leaving and everything seemed fine, but when we got home the extra egg was missing. I put the mochi in the freezer until we were finished eating. When we tried them, the exterior texture was all wrong: dry and cracking. This was a real let down for us at the end of our otherwise tasty meal, despite missing the egg.
