Really good ramen, everything was flavorful, and the creamy miso broth was my favorite part. They also give you 3 slices of pork when other places only give you 2. The service was also quick, my order came out in less than 10 min while dining in. Overall really good, and I would come back.

Was in the area when I decided to look for a local ramen spot. Searched and I found Tom Ramen. Located in an inconspicuous strip mall you'll find a small ramen spot. With plenty of parking that should not be an issue. Inside the seating is not very big so small parties are best for this spot. Menu is large with plenty of options ranging from ramen boba and sushi, classics and house specialties. Service was good and was able to take our order quick. Food came out a bit later and was hot and fresh. While not the best ramen I've had it definitely hit the spot.

Solid ramen and very filling portions. We tried Tonkotsu miso ramen and Karaage ramen. Both came with rich, creamy broths and lots of toppings. The karaage chicken was not as good as in Japan (of course not, alas), but my partner and I still enjoyed them. Not the best ramen out there, but solid flavors and fair prices.

Wanted to try a new to me ramen spot. First time here, ordered Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen. Typical price for the area, $15.99. Very large portion. I wish the pork broth was richer. Usually the pork broth is creamier for this type ramen. The pork itself was chewy, not so much melt in your mouth. I suspect it might get pan fried then added. Great noodles, typical mix of veggies. Strip mall, with parking. Small interior, about 9 tables. You come in and at the counter and they bring your food out to you. There's a lot on the menu, sushi in particular. Overall pretty good.

Tom Ramen is a casual dine-in restaurant where you order and pay up front at the register. They will bring you the food when it's ready and clean up when you're done, but it's not full service. I stopped by for lunch on Sunday with a big group and fortunately, we were able to be seated.TOM RAMEN - 15.95This was the tonkotsu ramen that contained chashu, beansprouts, half a ramen egg, corn, bamboo shoots, wood ear mushrooms, wavy ramen, topped with scallions and black garlic oil. The broth was pretty creamy and not too salty, but it lacked a strong pork flavor. It was mostly flavored by the black garlic oil. The chashu was really thin and quite charred on one side so it had a good flavor, but it wasn't very juicy or fatty. Everything else was fine. I'm not a huge wavy ramen fan, though.The ramen wasn't bad but it's not worth trekking to Alexandria for. Overall, I'm glad I got to try it since it's been on my list for a couple months.

Ehhhhh.... I'm not sure if it's worth the hype. A friend and I were in the area for a birthday party and saw this place had really good reviews and so we went to try. We both got the volcano ramen and although it was (temperature) hot, it wasn't spicy at all. The 2 pieces of pork were extremely fatty but the broth was quite good. I love a soft boiled marinated egg so I was disappointed that I only got half of an egg and not the whole thing with my ramen. We also got matcha drinks with boba pearls and those were bland and lacked matcha flavor. Overall the experience was mid and kind of a disappointment done the reviews were all fantastic.

My friend told me about this new ramen shop just opened across from their place, and I had to try it! I was a little worried because it was in this dark strip mall. But looks are deceiving - thank goodness!! It exceeded all my expectations. It was small inside, but very bright with fast service. You order at the counter like a fast casual spot. I ordered a Volcano Spicy Tom Ramen. It caught me off guard because it was actually very spicy! The broth was delicious and umami, and it came with two pork cha siu slices that were tender and flavorful. It also had a cured egg and crunchy bamboo shoots. The noodles were beautiful and springy. Just want you want - the perfect texture. My partner ordered the regular tom ramen, which came in a similar broth but just without the spicy oil. If you order $30 worth of food (about 2 ramen bowls), you get a free California roll! Sweet deal! When you can't decide whether you want sushi or ramen - you can get both!Talking about sushi - they have a full sushi roll menu, as well. Our friend ordered a Dragon Roll. Hefty potions and nicely fried! Didn't try it, but our friend said they were very pleased. Hope this place sticks around! It's great and in a central spot!! Excited to come back and try more things on the menu.

This just opened close by giving the area another option on food. They have lunch specials such as bento box and sushi along with ramen bowls. Staff were attentive even though they looked a bit stressed. Will give it a little time to break in. Enough tables to sit and enjoy a meal. Bright colors!

Tom Ramen just opened up in Mark Center - they offer an extensive menu that includes various apps, soups, makis, specialty rolls, sushi, sashimi, bento boxes, donburi, and ramen.I was surprised to see this place open and was excited to give them a try for lunch.We ordered:+Rock Shrimp - crispy shrimp tempura tossed in a sweet chili mango sauce; each shrimp was a nice size, deveined, and had a nice light batter; the sauce was similar to a 'bang bang' type of a sauce, but this was yummy with a kick and a great little app+Hawaii Roll - one of their specialty rolls; this was filled with a sweet potato lobster salad, and topped with a spicy kani with an eel and spicy mayo sauce; I'm usually not into specialty rolls, but this changed my mind! This was really tasty, especially the filling and the topping!+Tom Ramen - tonkotsu salt-flavored broth with chashu, stir-fried beansprouts with pork, a nitimago egg, scallions, corn, fish cakes, bamboo shoots, wood ear mushrooms, nori, and a black garlic oil; the hubs said it was pretty good, but didn't care for the chashu+Karaage Ramen - chicken broth with a nitimago egg, scallions, corn, fish cakes, bamboo shoots, and wood ear mushrooms; the deep-fried karaage with a spicy mayo sauce was served on the side; probably one of the better chicken broths I've had for a ramen; wasn't really a fan of the karaage as I felt like it could have been fried harder, but I appreciated that it was served on the side and not placed in the ramen in which it would get super soggy!Before we left, we had an Hokkaido Brown Sugar Milk Tea to go; this was more like a sweeter version of a milk tea, and I wasn't a fan.Staff were very kind and friendly! Honestly, I was a little hesitant in trying this place out, but I'm glad that I did - we'll definitely making a return visit!Plenty of parking in the lot.+Hawaii Roll+Rock Shrimp app+tasty specialty rolls+good chicken broth-based ramen+friendly staff+plenty of parking+located at the Mark Center

It is a small but cozy ramen shop that recently opened and I drove more than an hour away to try it out with a buddy and thought it was good! I didn't really want to go anywhere that was too "loud" at this time, and thought this place was good enough for somewhere a little quiet, but still had decent bowls of ramen. The service was pretty fast and I think the place is still developing anyways since it's relatively new, but I think it has a great variety of food already! The Tom Volcano Ramen felt like a nice, warm hug and I thought the spice level was good enough! It definitely wasn't the spiciest, but I'd order it again!
