The Best Ramen Bowls (Review) in 2020

Commonly used as an udon, pho or noodle bowl, JapanBargain’s aesthetic red and black design is ideal for ramen-lovers to make their experience seem more authentic. The bowl is made from melamine, meaning that it can be popped in the microwave or the dishwater and come out without any bumps or scratches due to its durable nature.

Yet the feature we love the most about this bowl is the circle of raised plastic adorning its base, lifting the bowl approximately two-thirds of an inch off the table. Not only does this design cater to the Japanese aesthetic, it allows the bowl to be easily transported when containing boiling water due to this large buffer of insulation. What’s not to love?

Boasting a functional design with chopstick slots ideal for carrying your ramen from the kitchen to your eating space, these porcelain bowls even come with two bamboo chopsticks and two ceramic soup spoons to match perfectly with the aesthetic Japanese design. The ceramic soup spoons in particular are incredibly functional: given their traditional shape, it’s impossible for them to fall into a bowl of boiling hot ramen.

Besides the countless reviews praising all three elements of this beloved Ramen set, delighted customers have been quick to comment on their dishwasher and microwave safe construction. Perfect for a couple, Tasse Verre have created a sturdy and stylish product worth investing in.

Nominated as our premium pick out of all the luxurious ramen bowls on the list, Vallenwood’s Four Bowl Set are as authentic as they come. Made from non-toxic melamine, the entire Vallenwood set includes four chopsticks, spoons, and even chopstick stands to zhuzh up your late-night ramen trips.

Manufacturers place such confidence in their bowls that they even advertise their 100% money back guarantee – meaning that if you’re unsatisfied with these bowls, Vallenwood would be more than happy to provide a full refund and still allow you to keep them. The company’s commitment to perfection is why we’ve dubbed Ramenwood’s bowls as our premium pick – you simply cannot beat them.

Dowan’s sparkling-white soup bowls may not be of an authentically Japanese design, yet the shape and size of these classic white bowls facilitates a healthy lifestyle. These bowls are able to be placed in any microwave, oven, dishwasher or freezer thanks to their durable porcelain construction.

Our favorite feature of Dowan’s bowls is their flat bottom design, enabling them to stand firmly in the kitchen cabinet. Although the chance of a broken bowl is incredibly slim, if this situation happens to arise, Dowan are prepared to offer customers unconditional warranty for damaged items, as well as money back guarantee for bowls accidentally broken in the first ninety days. Classic and curvy in design, they’re bound to fit perfectly into your kitchen cabinet.

What says “ramen for dinner” more than bowls that plaster the word in beautifully bold letters over the front? Bold and beautiful in their own special way, World Market’s ceramic japanese ramen bowl set are perfect for couples who want an bring a level of individuality to a collective cooking experience by choosing between the colors “Red Dragon” and “Green Rooster”.

Equipped with two ramen bowls, two spoons, and four traditional, sleek black chopsticks, manufacturers have thought of every respective element in order to make your dining experience special. One feature that particularly stands out for us is the premium ceramic handles: an intricate little detail not often seen in a ramen bowl set.

There aren’t many people who can confidently declare that their ramen bowl is entirely made of 100% naturally grown plant material  – unless you’ve purchased Ozeri’s Earth Ramen Bowl, that is. Entirely manufactured from biodegradable ingredients such as corn, sugarcane, vegetable starch, and beets, once these bowls are underground, they will biodegrade back into their natural elements within two to three years. Who knew that saving the planet and eating your noodles could go hand in hand?

Available with either a modern beige or startling red interior – both encircled by a dark outer coating – the six-piece set is color coordinated to match the spoons and chopsticks exactly. Both sets of cutlery even have holders at both sides of the bowls so carrying your noodles from the kitchen to your bedroom for midnight snacks is even simpler than before.

The history of Ramen bowls is wonderfully rich, bursting with iconic designs. Two design in particular are Seigaiha (青海波), a geometrical pattern meaning “blue sea and waves” displaying a wave crest pattern, and Karasuka (唐草), which predominately features nature such as flowers and leaves. Happy Sales’ bowls creatively utilises both iconic patterns in their “Bazaar” and “Bloom” designs, including a colorful twist.

Microwave and dishwasher safe, Happy Sales’ ramen bowls stand out as the perfect gift for any ramen lover. Their bowls’ capacity of sixteen ounces renders them capable of holding odon noodles, as well as a hearty bowl of pho, inside their edges. Plus, its Koudaidon design features a tall bottom so its user can hold the bowl without fear of becoming burned.
