Itadaki Ramen Restaurant

I have heard a lot of good things about this ramen restaurant that opened in the last year. I tend to avoid Collins and Cooper, if I can, but it was Saturday and I was running errands so I thought I would pop in. There were three women sitting behind the counter who told me to just sit anywhere. One of them immediately brought me a menu and asked what I wanted to drink. She brought me a glass with ice, and a bottle of water. I really try to avoid single use plastic as much as I can and asked her if they had water that wasn't bottled, she just told me they don't charge for it and walked away. Environment be damned, I guess. The service didn't get much better after that. The table was clear when I sat down, but apparently had not been wiped down because there were soup spots all over it. There were only three other tables occupied and the women spent most of the time I was there on their phones, so it wasn't that they were busy.Then, my soup came out. And it was piping hot. Which I love. Soup needs to be HOT, and I have been to a few ramen places who send it out just warmed. The ramen was good. The noodles were chewy, in the best way. The egg perfectly cooked. The chashu was very tender. You could see that it had spice on it, but it wasn't spicy, however it was very flavorful. If I were judging just on the ramen I would have rated it better. My only complaint with the food, because of the shape of the bowls and spoon, it is not easy to get the last of the soup that has all the delicious bits left behind. Alas, they were left behind. The check was dropped down while I was still eating, and you pay at the counter. The ramen price is about on par with Ramen Izakaya Akira, in Lewisville, but I think only one is worth going out of your way for.

We were in the mood for some Ramen, and I wanted to try a new location. We settled on Itadaki. This restaurant is a small store but still has plenty of tables. You sit down and order at the table. The service was very good for us. The wait staff are very helpful if you have questions about the ramen types. For the food I had Sapporo Gara Broth ramen. I ordered mine with miso broth. This ramen comes with chicken and pork. So, it cost a dollar more for two meats. The broth was very tasty, not spicy at all. I do like some spices, so I may order it with some spice next time. Plenty of food at a great price. We did have an appetizer first, it was the Gyoza pan seared very good. Food came out fast not much of a wait. For a nice touch at the end of our meal the server brought out two slices of watermelon. That was very nice, I really liked that. I'm not sure if that is an all the time thing or not. But it is a good idea. On the menu you have plenty of other items Bento boxes, chicken meals cooked with different sauces. Fried rice, Udon and Soba. All looks very good.

Perfect cold weather destination on Monday night. Parking was complimentary and we got sat right away. Ambiance was intimate and cozy. Server was attentive and friendly. The owner, Alex, was helpful and recommended SAPPORO GARA BROTH Ramen. We ordered that with miso and shio in low sodium broth and chicken karage. They also offered Bento boxes on the menu. The ramen hit the spot and karage was delicious too. Great experience and we will be back.

I was in the mood for ramen and my bf found this place for us. It seems newer since there were few menus so we wanted to try it out!! We were a bit surprised that there wasn't any Tonkotsu, or other typical dishes from Ramen restaurants but we were open to anything. We got the Kara Miso Sapporo Gara Broth and Shio Sapporo Gara Broth. Both were incredibly flavorful and the Kara Miso satisfied my craving and much much more. They were very generous with the servings of meat and everything added in the dish was delicious and filling. I had to take some home. We also got chicken karaage which was crispy but not oily! Very flavorful as well. Service was quick, and our servers were attentive. They gave us some watermelon after our meal as well ^.^ Will be showing this place to my friends and family.

They serve a ramen style from Hokkaido, the northernmost of Japan's main islands. It includes a miso-infused pork bone broth prepared low and slow.I got mine spicy. Everything was delicious and service was on point. I will be going back. Ambiance was chill and efficient.

Came here last minute for some ramen and want wasn't dissapointed. It's a small location with good flavors. They offer a few variations of ramen and appetizers.

Tucked away in the whole foods plaza, is a gem of a ramen shop. Itadaki Ramen is authentic Japanese, Kansai-style 関西 ramen. The restaurant is clean and welcoming with plenty of tables. The owner learned the methods from Japan and imports the noodle and broth. The noodle is especially QQ and the flavor is very unique. Definitely worth the try. Order:Chicken karaage-tender with a crispy outsideTakoyaki -more tokyo style, fried well and not gooey. Saucy and savory just how I like. Squid geso karaage-fried squid, can't go wrong. Crispy, chewy and would pair perfectly with a beer. Agedashi tofu-fried perfectly without falling apart or being too wet. Big portion! I'd need extra sauce cause I basically drink it lolFried oysters -incredible texture, crunch and fried well with fresh juicy oysters. A summer staple. Soup-less RamenOn the saltier side, pork is tender and braised well to really balance it out. Nigori chicken broth in shoyu sauce and pork chashu - savory, rich and filling. Ramen egg made perfectly, noodles are chewy and very QQ, broth isn't too saltyCome try out this new ramen shop!! It's a bit of a drive for me but 100% worth it.

This is a new spot near our house! The service is so friendly and amazing! The ambiance is nice. They have a lot of tables and on top of soda and water they also have sake, wine and beer! The ramen is really good! Perfect for a cold rainy day. I had a chicken and pork ramen dish. The food came out quick. It's also in a plaza so it's got ample parking. Will definitely be back!

The ramen is sooo good. The staff shared their story, they are a chain from Japan and they are required to serve their food to high standards. As such, the broth was incredibly rich and they have great portions. We have been to Sapporo before and highly recommend if you want a little taste of Japan here in Texas. The interior is also lovely.

At first, walking up to the shop, I wasn't sure what to expect since I'm new to the area. Once I entered the restaurant, the lady at the front desk greeted me and asked for my order.Since I didn't know much about the menu, I decided to try their pork ramen bowl. The order didn't take long, and the whole meal was very tasty. 10/10
