Daruma Ramen is slated to begin serving diners again in East Austin in 2026.
What you need to know
The ramen shop, formerly located off East Sixth Street, closed its doors in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now, Kayo and Takehiro Asazu, who also own Komé, Sa-Tén and Uroko, and Harry Chang are planning to reopen Daruma Ramen at The Goodwin apartment complex off Airport Boulevard.
On the menu
The restaurant is recognized for its refined, clear chicken-based ramen known as Chintan broth.
In their own words
“The revived concept will stay true to its original spirit while introducing a refreshed setting for both longtime fans and new guests,” Kayo Asazu said in an email.
