If you are in Beaverton, Kizuki Ramen & Izakaya is amazing, it's from Japanese chain and is one of their first restaurants in US (so I've been told).
I live right near this one but only went once and favor a few other spots. It's not bad and they do offer a lot of options and have the best decor.
Alright, the Ramen spots I've hit that I would say are worth the time and the money:
Noraneko
This place is right by OMSI, too. You gotta visit OMSI, btw.
Izakaya Kichinto
Right by the Wonder Ballroom (and the aforementioned Russell St. BBQ)
Boxer Ramen
There's a couple of these around town (owned by the Blue Star Donuts/Little Big Burger people) but I really like the one on Alberta.
Hapa
Got food carts on west and east sides. Amazing stuff.
Kayo's Ramen Bar
The ramen would be top-notch even if they didn't give you two eggs per bowl.
I haven't gone to Biwa or Mirakutei, yet, but people speak pretty highly of em. I'd also put in a word for House of Ramen downtown, which looks basically like a convenience store with tables, and is definitely not trying to class the dish up any, but can't deny: They make good soup.
Your comment on Kayo's Ramen seems insane to me as my roommate and I tend to always add egg to our ramen. Two eggs is not entirely uncommon and we pay extra for that honor!
To go with my above reply I suggest Ramen Ryoma. Not much to look at and it's attached to a popular Japanese store but my roommate and I have begun going here the most for Ramen out on the west side.
Also, a little hole in the wall with barely even a sign is Yuzu in Beaverton. They do offer ramen but they have plenty of other options. I typically get a katsudon and my roommate and I split an appetizer or two each time we go. The tamago karokke is always ordered.
Lastly, if you want Japanese curry you can order that at Ramen Ryoma but you really should head downtown and check out Kale. Or rather Kalè or however the e looks. They essentially just do curry with a very basic menu. I've always been a fan.
