Hoshi Ramen

We had to come and see what this restaurant had to offer. We were visiting friends on campus and one of my friends mentioned a quint ramen shop so of course we could not pass it up! We had to come and check Hoshi Ramen out! It was very cute walking in and seeing lots of different japanese decorations with Scooby-Doo episode playing behind the bar. Immediately felt comfortable as a nerd coming here to get some food.We actually reserved a table ahead of time for the 5 of us and they were excited to accommodate. We sat down and the server started service with waters and our appetizers. We ordered the Chashu fries, the chicken karaage and the seaweed salad. Everything was fresh and tasty! Then we went in ordered our respective ramen bowls. I acquiesced to a spicy seafood ramen bowl. Because spice and seafood is the best combination.The noodles were chewy. The vegetables were fresh. And best of all the broth was light and savory. This a great place to try. The even have a description key to aid in the menu if you didn't know what it's from. 5 stars!

Really exceptional vegetarian ramen! I ordered a tofu bao, seaweed salad, and edamame as well, and it was all good. The standout was the vegetarian ramen though; I added egg and extra mushroom to mine. Maybe the best vegetarian ramen I've had!

After being promised Ethiopian if I stoped to take my son for a haircut on the way home from his volleyball game yesterday, there was a last minute change of plans. My husband decided to save Ethiopian for a day we can get there earlier enough to get kitfo, which is often sold out by 7 p.m.He surprised me with a new to us restaurant. It was very good! My husband did his usually thing and asked the server what he should order. The server was excited to share his suggestion of tantanmen ramen. My husband enjoyed it. He asked if it had a peanut butter flavor, and I had to remind him that it has sesame tahini. The chicken based broth was very tasty. I ordered the tonkatsu ramen. This one has a pork based broth. It was tasty. But the broth was a little bland. The pork belly was very good though. My daughter ordered what I think was the best ramen of the night. She had the seafood option. The broth was flavorful and had a little kick. The highlight of the meal though, was the chashu fries. The meat, cheese, and sauce loaded on perfectly cooked fries was such a satisfying bite. We also ordered edamame, the beans were not over cooked or too salty. We also order shoyu ramen to go for the goblins at home. I only tried the broth, and it was very tasty.

My family is big fan of Ramen we probably tried 20+ places , Hoshi is very clean and fast , Broth is not artificial like some other Ramen Franchise, but the Ramen I ordered is overly salty , meat is very chewy , it's a ok place for quick lunch but if I have choice I will go to the other Japanese restaurants by Costco ( close by crumble cookie )

I can see this place being a nice chill spot for people to eat and hang out, but the food wasn't good. I ordered the shoyu ramen and the noodles were undercooked, still firm. There wasn't any flavor in the broth and the portion size was pretty small compared to other ramen spots.I was told the seafood ramen was good, but when I tried that it seemed like it was all spice, no flavor. Kind of disappointed. The plus to the experience was the waiter was nice.

They have lots of menu items and I've been twice and both times were just okay. I really wanted to like the ramen but it was bland, which was surprising because the pork was delicious--there is much potential. They have a "secret" Korean menu that you can ask for, which is great for more options. I had something from that menu once but it felt like they were slightly stingy with the protein so the majority if it was just noodles.

Robbie provided the service and he was cheerful and worked real hard for the table. He was spot on for the e ute meal. Our glasses were always filled and plates removed on completion. He handled a party of 10 flawlessly.Had the tonkatsu bao. It was very good. It was a bun was a tad bit sweet but the pork paired with aioli was very nice.Went with the curry ramen and side of chicken katsu for the meal. The katsu came out a few minutes after the curry. I waited for it to add it to my bowl. That was the right call. The chicken katsu lacked salt and a little flavor but went well into the ramen bowl. The noodles were cooked perfectly in the ramen dish. The broth was also flavorful, the corn and onion went real nice together, the crunchiness of the katsu was excellent. The pork belly in the dish was a little bland as well. Overall nice dish.

I have been craving ramen and since I've seen bao bun tacos on TikTok, I've been dying to try those too!! I am not disappointed!! Everything about this visit was spot on! The service was spot on! Our server was friendly, our drinks never ran dry, the team worked together, our food was fresh, hot, and tasty, the ambiance was comfortable, and the cleanliness was definitely spot on!! The teriyaki chicken dish was not overly sweet and sticky as most Americanized Asian food is. The ramen seemed very authentic and hit the spot for me. I'm not sure but I think they make their mochi. I've had the preordered stuff before and didn't really care for it but I loved everything about this mochi. Even my son enjoyed it and he didn't like it the first time we tried it either. Word of the wise is, not all mochi is created equally! Please revisit this if you've tried it elsewhere and didn't like it. The only thing is... for this food experience I had to accept that I was going to upset my body as there were no options for gluten free. Obviously bao bun is not GF and that's what I wanted to try. Ramen could be served with a rice noodle option but they don't have it. You could order one of their rice dishes but it's sure to have soy sauce that isn't gluten free, and the meat was coated and fried in something not GF. Moral of the story is if you have celiacs just stay away. Gluten intolerance? Weigh your risks verse's benefits and deal with your decision. Lastly, the vegetarian options are not fully vegetarian... like Worcestershire sauce. So if you're vegan... skip on this one. You have no options here. Otherwise, come one come all and eat your heart out!! It's good stuff.

Had the curry don, chicken fried rice, tantanmen ramen, and tried the bao buns also! Everything was fantastic!

Food is delicious, hands down the best ramen I've ever had. 100% worth the visit. Wait staff is very friendly and food is consistently delicious.
