“Nishiki Ramen is a culinary gem that transports you straight to the streets of Tokyo with its authentic flavors and vibrant atmosphere. The moment you step in, the warm welcome by the staff sets the tone for a delightful dining experience.The takoyaki here is a revelation – perfectly crispy on the outside while being delightfully gooey on the inside, each bite is a burst of umami goodness, complemented by the tangy sauce and delicate bonito flakes that dance on top. It's a must-try appetizer that primes your palate for more.Moving on to the kaarage, Nishiki Ramen's rendition of this classic Japanese fried chicken dish is nothing short of perfection. The chicken is marinated to the bone, ensuring each piece is succulent and flavorful. The golden-brown crust is audibly crisp, making it an irresistible treat that pairs wonderfully with their array of dipping sauces.But the star of the show is undoubtedly their eel dish. The eel is grilled to a smoky tenderness, glazed with a sweet and savory sauce that enhances its natural flavors without overpowering them. It's a delicate balance that Nishiki Ramen masters, offering a dish that's both comforting and luxurious.Whether you're a ramen aficionado or a curious foodie, Nishiki Ramen's dedication to quality and flavor shines through in every dish. It's a culinary experience that leaves you planning your next visit before you've even left your seat. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in the best of Japanese comfort food!“
“Just finished dinner at RanKen Noodle House in Kentlands- it was really good. Gyoza we’re perfectly cooked, I got the Ramen and my husband had Udon Tempora. I had been hesitant previously, and then kept coming by at the wrong hours. So glad we finally made it and we will be back.“
“Gyuzo offers an exceptional Japanese dining experience, made perfect by Amanda's impeccable service. From her warm welcome to expert menu guidance, Amanda ensured a memorable evening. The dishes, including delectable sashimi, ramen, and Wagyu beef, showcased Gyuzo's culinary excellence. Amanda's attention to detail and seamless service left us eager to return.“
“It was our first time here, and we really enjoyed the food! We had the spicy miso based ramen with chicken katsu, the volcano base ramen with bulgogi, the chicken katsu curry rice and a Phoenix Special Roll. From the side salad & miso to the size & freshness of the roll (could've been spicier;)) and the simplicity of the soup bases and even the curry-- everything was delicious! Even my picky husband said it's some place he'd come back to;)“
“This ramen shop is really excellent. The noodles are made in house and fresh. The broth is really well made as well and has excellent flavor.I had the takoyaki as an appetizer and felt it was a little strange that it had egg salad as a base. I still felt that the dish was really good.I asked for no spicy sauce in my dish and they were able to accommodate.I would say that my only complaint was that it was loud and had fairly loud music. But I feel that I'm also just more sensitive to loud environments.Overall the Ramen is great and I highly recommend going here for some really fresh and nice ramen.Dietary restrictions: They asked about any dietary restrictions.“
“I came here around 9 pm on a weekday night because I was starving and craving some Japanese food. This place is technically located inside Kusshi Sushi, so you would just be seated regularly there and can order food off their menu. For Donburi Dojo and Ramen House, the food items are listed on the Silver Spring online menu (but you can still order them here at the Bethesda location!). I ordered a pork katsu don. It blew me away with how good it was and totally surpassed my expectations. All of the katsu pieces were cooked well and mixed great with the egg and onions. The sauce was my favorite part because of how flavorful it was, ultimately creating a slightly sweet dish that completely hit the spot for me. It's easily the best katsu don that I've had in the DMV area!“
“This is a chain ramen establishment which I found to be a fine place for a warm bowl of Japan. There is some depth with their broth and it's pleasing. Not sure I'll come back with the area yielding in my opinion better options. The servers are great with being super friendly. The atmosphere is fun and everyone inside like me was having a great experience. I do recommend this place and till next time....“
