Restaurant Gems of Pittsburgh and the Tri-State
🔥 NORTH HILLS… HAVE YOU TRIED THIS PLACE YET?! 🍜🔥There’s a LOT of great food hiding along McKnight Road — and Eiwa Japanese Ramen Bar is one spot that deserves some attention!🍜 Ramen🍣 Sushi & sashimi🥟 Gyoza & crab rangoons🍛 Katsu curry🥢 Udon🍚 Rice bowls🥗 Poke🧋 Boba & specialty drinksAnd the ramen selection is no joke. You can go with everything from Hakata Tonkotsu and Rich Miso to Tan Tan, Lanzhou Beef, Golden Katsu Curry and Thai Curry Ramen. One thing that really caught my attention is how much variety they pack into one menu. You can have one person at the table going all-in on ramen while someone else gets sushi, poke or a rice bowl.That makes Eiwa a pretty easy spot for a group where everyone wants something different.📍 Eiwa Japanese Ramen Bar4860 McKnight Rd — North HillsNow I want to hear from the North Hills crowd…👇 HAVE YOU TRIED EIWA YET?And if you have — WHAT’S YOUR GO-TO ORDER?! 🍜🥟🍣Tag somebody who needs to check this place out! 👇4860 McKnight Rd, Pittsburgh, PA 15237 ...
