My wife is on a mission to try out all the ramen places in Houston. She found this spot and we went to go try it. Im not much a ramen fan so I ordered the rolls: tiger, shaggy dog and crunchy roll. My wife ordered the tonkatsu ramen. They were very delicious and all that food didn't cost all that much either (also comes with complimentary cream cheese tempura!). Servers and staffs were all nice and friendly too. The interior is very izakaya like and has that local Japanese ramen place vibe. If you are looking for nice cozy ramen place. Give this a try!

The inside is a bit small, with 7 4ppl tables and a few bar seats. The decorations are very cute and well done. This place has a very causal feel and the volume levels are moderate. I ordered a vegetable roll and a avocado roll. Both came out looking beautiful but they were definitely on the smaller side. The rolls were also like $5 each so that's expected. The flavor was decent, it felt like the rice didn't taste like sushi rice and that I needed to dip it into soy sauce for the flavor to really pop. I have heard good things about the other things on their menu so I will go back to try other dishes! The staff was really nice and the food came out so fast!

Smash: beef yaki toriPass: miso ramen with cashew parkAll in all, it's fine. Take it or leave it. If I'm going out for ramen, I'd spend a little more and pick elsewhere.

I love ramen, and even have a top 10 ramen list... this was not it. The ramen noodles were hard even with the broth, the seaweed piece was soggy before I put the broth on and I ended up removing it altogether. Shrimp was overcooked. Broth was good and had bold flavor but fell flat. Edamame felt like it came from a frozen bag and there was barely any salt. Thai tea was good. I had gyoza as well and have no photo because I ate it before I took a picture, it was the best part of the order. The service and ambiance I cannot speak to since I had it ordered. I will most likely pass next time.

I ordered takeout and here is my experience: Easy ordering online I ordered the Hot Papa Roll and not sure what the other roll was (a type of tempura roll).Rolls were super yummy and will now be my regular go to spot after this. Everything came out great and the hot papa roll is one of the best rolls I've had in a while, did not disappoint.

After a nice hoop session my friend and I wanted to get some ramen. This spot just opened so we decided to give it a try. I thought the experience was pretty good & definitely worth coming back again. The service was excellent by Crystal, she was accommodating & kind to us. This restaurant is very small so I'll say 2-5 people can dine in together but anything past 10 is pushing it. The decor was nice though. Here are some items that I tried. * Gyoza- the filling was good & it was moist. But the outer shell was a little undercooked & tasted gummy. 3/5 * Cream cheese tempura- very good. The batter was flaky and the texture was on point. The cream cheese on the inside was delicious. 4.5/5 * Steak Ramen- I loved the broth, it was garlicky. The ribeye was too rubbery for my liking. It needs to be cooked less. The noodles were overcooked. 3.7/5 * Lobster Ramen- the broth was decent but needed more seasoning to give it some oomph. I thought the sodium level was just right. Not bland and not too salty. The lobster had a nice bouncy texture to it. The egg was gooey in the middle just the way I like it. The noodles were overcooked, it barley had any chew to it. 3.5/5Overall, the food was pretty good but the service is what gave it a 5 stars. The only suggestion that I have is, giving us an option of soft or firm noodles. I prefer mine to be firm because I like a perfect Al dente. Other than that, this is a solid spot to go for a nice quiet lunch/dinner. Will I come back? You bet I will. Next time I'll try their sushi. Also, thank you Crystal for the complementary cream cheese tempura.

I visited here because I was looking for ramen in the area and wanted to try a new spot. I know Jinya is nearby, but I've been too many times and wanted something new. Besides, this restaurant is very highly rated on yelp, so why not?At the time of writing, they have 7 versions of ramen, with 3 having seafood in them. The steak ramen is only $1 more than the tonkatsu. They are slightly chincy because the steak doesn't come with egg, and if you do order a ramen with an egg, you only get 1/2. They do offer two types of noodles in your ramen; however, the standard noodles are soft, and the firm noodle is $1 more.I came with a small group and ordered a few tonkatsu ramen, a steak ramen, avocado roll, and shaggy dog roll.They offered a complimentary appetizer, but in the end, the mess up kind of left a bad taste in everyone's mouths. The ramen came out very thin and tasted like tap water, even though the color of broth was similar to what it should be. My initial thought was, "Is this a joke?" We brought this to their attention, and they immediately knew what was wrong and brought out a cup of a thick milky sauce. After pouring this into each bowl, it improved the broth significantly, even though the cook still claimed that he put it in all the bowls already.The complimentary app was tempura cream cheese and this was decent. I can't really give much more than 3 stars since the food was just average.
