Get a First Taste of the Ramen That Everyone’s Talking About

Let’s talk ramen. Not the packet. Not the dorm room special. We’re talking big flavor, bold toppings, broth that’s been babied for hours, and bowls that don’t mess around. At Craft, ramen is a whole situation. It’s where rich chicken paitan broth meets everything from braised short rib to plancha-seared shrimp, miso-glazed salmon, and chili-laced tuna. You want ramen? You want Craft.

We’ve taken this comfort food classic and given it a Norfolk-worthy upgrade. This isn’t something we microwave in the back and throw some garnish on. This is our thing. Our obsession. Our kitchen’s proudest work. So if you’re hungry in Norfolk and ready to get serious about ramen, pull up a chair.

Braised Beef Short Rib Ramen That Eats Like a Feast

Short rib ramen is where cozy meets knockout flavor. We take tender, fall-apart beef short rib, let it hang out in a rich paitan broth, and layer it with green onion, crispy nori, toasted sesame seeds, a perfect six-minute egg, and a drizzle of eel sauce that brings the whole bowl to life. This one doesn’t whisper. It announces itself.

Plancha Shrimp Ramen Turns Heads

Shrimp al pastor is the wild card you didn’t know you needed in your ramen game. We sear it on the plancha to get that perfect crust, then let the paitan broth soak into every bite. That egg? Still perfect. The nori? Still crisp. The flavor? Off the charts. If you like a little seafood attitude in your bowl, this is your move.

Miso Glazed Salmon Ramen That’s Too Good to Share

This one’s smooth, savory, and straight-up addictive. The teriyaki miso glaze on the salmon brings a little sweetness, a little umami, and a whole lot of depth to the paitan broth. With green onion, nori, egg, and eel sauce in the mix, you’ve got balance. You’ve got flavor. You’ve got that friend who always “just wants one bite” suddenly asking for their own bowl.

Pork Belly Ramen That Brings the Heat

Slow-braised pork belly. Gochujang BBQ. Paitan broth that brings it all together. This bowl doesn’t play it safe, and we like it that way. The fatty richness of the pork belly and the spicy-sweet kick of gochujang are made for each other. Toss in some sesame, green onion, and that signature egg, and you’ve got something serious going on.

Blackened Chicken Ramen for the Bold and the Brave

Pan-seared, blackened chicken plus a sriracha glaze that keeps things interesting. This ramen’s got edge. It’s got flavor. And it’s got a broth that takes all that heat and makes it feel like home. Not into seafood? Don’t want red meat? This one brings the fire without compromise.

Seared Tuna Ramen with a Thai Chili Twist

We keep it sharp with this one. The tuna’s seared just right, the Thai chili sauce adds a punch, and that creamy chicken paitan broth holds everything down. It’s bright, spicy, savory, and totally addictive.

The Bowls Are Hot. The Vibe’s Even Hotter.

You’re not coming to Craft for average. You’re coming for ramen that’s been thought out, cooked right, and served up with pride. You’re coming to sit back with a frozen margarita, soak in the Colley Ave energy, and eat something that makes you forget what day it is.

So if you’re wandering Norfolk and your stomach’s asking for something bold, ramen at Craft is the answer. We’ve got your table ready and your bowl waiting.
