Not much to put. It was a little hidden in all the buildings.Good ramen and good gyoza!Not that cheap but good portions. Not sure I'd go out of my way to go here versus ramen other places. Especially since a lot of the buildings by it are also food or expensive stores. But good nonetheless!Additionally the entire time I was here only Charlie Puth played and idk I just thought it was so funny.

I'm a huge ramen fan and was skeptical about Rakkans' vegetable broth as I'm a bigger fan of savory broths made with pork and chicken bones. I wanted something lighter for lunch though and decided to stop by and give it a try. Service was good and the waitress was helpful in making our choices. I saw they also had an off menu seasonal special but wanted to try their traditional ramens first. We went for the Pearl and Spicy Quartz so we could try a creamy and the more original soy sauce flavor. However, we both were not very impressed with our rmaen. The Pearl was supposed to be less salty compared to the Amber, however, it just tasted salty to me without any depth of flavor. The Spicy Quartz was a bit better but still just did not have much flavor. Our eggs were also overcooked. The gyoza appetizer wasn't bad.Overall, I'm not sure if we went on a bad day as there are so many good reviews about this place but we left disappointed and likely won't be coming back especially with all the other great spots in Houston we have access to.

Food was amazing (had a few appetizers and a bowl of Ramen), but the dessert i tried was horrible (green tea tiramisu)! It had no flavor to the cake and just alot of dusted green tea on top. My main complaint about my first time experience was the service! The initial server was great until the end. Another server including ours kept initiating the bill was there and mentioned it 6-7 times within a 5 min period rushing us to pay while we were still eating! Then on top of that saying they was about to close and it was 8:30. I then asked what time u close and she said 9. I paid and walked around and came back around 930 and it was other ppl in there eating. I felt stereotyped and didnt appreciate it! Servers sucked that night and it was my FIRST TIME there. Will not b going back because of that! Ive been in the industry for 18 years. Food was great tho

I like coming here for lunch because it's not too busy and the food comes out fast. They have a cool lunch special $12.50 which includes an entree & appetizer. I recommend the Avocado tofu rice bowl. They also have vegan ramen and/or you can substitute most of their other ramen bowls to make it vegan. Servers are really nice and well trained. Soft music vibes in the background. Lowtop bar and hightop community table in addition to some booths and outside tables.

Great if you are a match/green tea lover! Pairs well with the vanilla ice cream as the matcha on top can be potent for those that never had anything matcha related.

I had the spicy curry ramen with chicken and it did not disappoint. Julio was my server and did an amazing job. The atmosphere was pleasant although my one complaint would be that it was a little chilly but that is a subjective thing. All in all a great experience!

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place but here it goes.Rakkan has been one of our favorite ramen spots in town. They're a ramen spot from Tokyo. All their broths are plant based and very delicious. In our most recent visit I got the Pearl (salt+umami sauce) which very light, salty, flavorful broth and my wife got the Quartz (creamy sauce) which was creamy, full bodied and flavorful. The noodles, chashu pork and egg were also perfect. Service was super friendly and prompt. The shop itself is nice and clean. They even have a community table which would be good if you have a big group. Overall, this place is def a top 3 ramen shop for us. It's also in mkt so it's nice to kinda walk around after eating. Go check them out!

First and foremost our serve was Julio..... Brruuhh this was my first time going and the next time I go, I'm going for him as if he's the one on the menu ha! My man was super helpful, recommended dishes, offered amazing services like a true gentleman and a scholar lol! I usually leave reviews only for bad service. Looks like Julio changed my perspective by being a cool & polite young dude!But to the Rakkan Family! The clean environment, the music, dim lighting made me and my lady very comfortable for our first date in months to re-spark things! We will be back ASAP, no Rocky!P.S. I'm getting lucky tonight
