Tamashi Ramen and Sushi

Wasn't a huge fan of the Tonkotsu spicy ramen. I thought the soup was too salty, noodles were a bit hard, and portion was a small (compared to what I'm used to at least. Maybe I just eat too much). The fried squid tentacles on the other hand were amazing! It only comes in a small dish, but I would order it again because it was so good. I could eat that all day.Service was ok. Nothing over the top or below par either, which is fine. We got our food and water with no complaints on our end!Plenty of seating. At first glance, the restaurant looked narrow and small, but there is actually another side with more tables.Lots of One Piece anime decoration everywhere. I never watched One Piece, but I still enjoyed looking at all the interesting characters.

Great spot when you need a quick meal, would not go here with large parties as it's small and their wait list builds up pretty quickly but they're good at moving it along promptly. The takoyaki was my favorite so delicious, the ramen was ok in my opinion the broth didn't stand out too much to me. The roll we got I believe was the tiger roll (can't quite remember) was pretty good would come again to try some of their other items. The place itself to me was so cute and tiny reminds me of a very hole in the wall type of vibe.

It definitely hit the spot. On saying that upon walking getting hit up for money by a drifter wasn't what I expected this far away from downtown. The place is extremely small, but dining alone tonight so didn't think anything of until they tried to seat me at last table...it was very uncomfortable. There was a booth side that was impossible to get to as the table next to me was so close that no one could get to that side so had to settle in chair facing the wall as my whole right side of my body had basically become one with the wall. Couldn't stand being so uncomfortable so within minutes I looked around for a better option and there beside entry door was an available high chair seating that peered out to parking lot.I ordered the Yellowtail Raku roll and the Curry Tsukemen...both items deemed to be spicy, but neither of them were. Though the roll was quite refreshing and they didn't skimp on the fish. The ramen came with an abundance of dipping noodles and toppings (fish cakes/cabbage/kani), pork a bit less that what I expected, but it was ever so tender and tasty.If you live in the area it definitely great for take out. Wouldn't go out of my way to visit though.Service very friendly.Total experience:Slightly over 3.5

We've been wanting to try this place for awhile and went on Saturday night around 6pm. There was quite a wait with a few parties ahead of us (at least 30mins-1hr). They have a waitlist paper that you put your name down for. The wait did take awhile and we opted to sit at the bar area for faster seating.We started off with takoyaki and karaage for appetizers. I really like their takoyaki, there were a good size with a good amount of octopus inside. Flavored well and cooked well! The chicken karaage was crispy and flavorful, although I felt like there wasn't too much meat overall. I love dipping ramen, so I was very excited to try the curry tsukemen. This ramen was SO GOOD!! I've never had a curry ramen before and this was 10/10. The noodles were yummy in the broth but it was a little hard to separate them in the bowl. They give a good amount of meat and other add-ons in the ramen, so I felt like I had enough toppings per noodle ratio. The broth itself was super flavor and delicious and also not too spicy, which was a plus. It was a nice warm heat flavor but nothing too extreme. Overall, I really liked the takoyaki and ramen here!! I can't wait to come back for the other ramen and try some of the sushi too! I probably would just come a little earlier or on a weekday!

Small place with a traditional Japanese feel. Parking can be an issue. Service was good. Hands down the best Ramen I have had in Houston. Tamashi's ramen did not tasty overly salty or leave some weird film in my mouth like some of the other popular ramen spots in town. Theirs tasted more homemade than many that I have tried. Pro Tip: Ask for some of their hot sauce/chili paste it has a great flavor and heat.Tonkotsu, $10.75: Nice portion with a rich bone broth. The flavor was deep and rich. All the ingredients were top notch. Would highly recommend.Tamashi's Menn, $11.75: Broth was also rich in flavor like the Tonkotsu. the shrimp were nicely cooked. Chicken Karaage, $6.50: Chicken thighs battered and fried in a crispy coating. Great appetizer especially for those that are not super adventurous. Can't say enough about the quality of the ingredients and the price of the food here. Would highly recommend and return.

If you're looking for a quick ramen fix the spot is it the food is decent what flavor for broth in perfectly cooked noodles services quick and efficient making a great for those in a hurry. However, be prepared for a tight and snug ambience.

The food is excellent, better than many luxurious and expensive places, the place is small and simple but pleasant. The service is good, they are very friendly and attentive.

I'm a big fan of tamashi. My usual go to location is the bellaire location but stopped by this location because my friend and my boyfriend was in the area. Parking here is limited so you'll most likely have to find street parking during peak times. This location is small and only has a few tables. Wait time was not bad on a Saturday. Unlike the bellaire location this location does not offer skewers. My go to is the spicy tonkotsu ramen and Brussels sprouts. Service here is fast and restaurant is clean.

This is my go to place for good affordable sushi. I always get the Tamashi's Menn Ramen with the Sushi Special and share it with my sister and it is the perfect amount of food. I don't go with more than one person usually because the restaurant is pretty small and isn't great for more than two people in my opinion. Service is always quick and efficient as well. I've been to another Tamashi at a different location but I think this one is better. I would recommend this as a great lunch place.

Their service here was incredibly fast, and the restaurant is very small, which I later learned made this restaurant a poor choice for a chat to catch up with a friend. There are only a few tables inside, so there was a short wait on a weekend afternoon. I got the tonkotsu ramen, and it was okay. The noodles had a thin rough texture I wasn't a fan of, and the broth was fine. I wasn't very hungry but finished the bowl as the portion was not large. It was a good price. After we finished eating, they quickly cleared the table and brought our checks. We were asked to leave because there were people waiting, and I felt bad for taking their time, but we only sat for about 30 minutes in total. I do understand that I should've been more cognizant about the line. There is a small parking lot in the back, but it was full, so I found nearby street parking.
