Staff cheerfully salute arrivals and departures at this dedicated ramen bar just west of downtown on 14th Street Southwest. And there’s plenty of positivity in the piping hot bowls of ramen that are Muku’s specialty. Among the bestselling bowls here are regular, spicy and black-garlic tonkatsu (pork) ramen. Soups all feature some combo of sliced pork, nori (seaweed), corn and fish cake and may be garnished with boiled egg halves. Also try the jya jya men, a cold ramen bowl with spicy ground pork and vegetables.
