“The presentation of my ramen was a 100/10. The service was amazing, the ramen was delicious, and the professionalism of the woman working was warm, friendly, and kind. This level of service reminds me of how things used to be, before covid ruined the service industry as we knew it. 110% will support this business as long as I’m in this area, as well as recommend it to everyone I know.“
“Rakken ramen is one of my go-tos for ramen as they're healthy and fast. Not your typical ramen as they use a vegetable broth, which is equally as delicious as a regular pork broth! Our server, Yaya, was attentive and provided great service today! Thank you!“

“I was here on a Friday Night. It was a lot slower than I expected it to be.Food rating.Burnt Garlic Tonkotsu - 4.5/5Creamy savory broth as intendedTakowasa - 5/5Crunchy raw octopus mixed with wasabiTakoyaki - 4.5/5Everything was how it was supposed to be. I just wished it was 6 pieces instead of 4.Garlic Soy Wings - 4/5Like the Takoyaki, there were only 4 wings, 6 would have been perfect for me.Polite and attentive service.“
“This is honestly one of my top ramen places that I've tried in Houston. I had heard that the ramen here is very authentic, so I had to try it out for myself. I came here on a week night for dinner, and unfortunately, they were a bit understaffed. There appeared to be only one server for all of the tables, so it did take a while for him to take our order. I'm writing this review a few months later from when I tried this restaurant, so I hope that has changed now. He was very friendly though. I tried the tonkotsu gachi ramen. It was VERY delicious and flavorful. It didn't feel overly heavy like some other ramen places that I've tried. I can say that this does taste pretty authentic. I like the location of this place too because I live around here, and it's easy access for people around the medical center to go to. I hope this place stays here for a while! I would absolutely come back.“
“Local sushi hole-in-the-wall type restaurant. The menu is really good, but we usually make up our own rolls and they accommodate it well. We enjoy our meals at Yoshi's.Vegetarian options: Plenty of opportunities to avoid the animal products if you are vegan or plant-based. Miso soup, vegetable rolls, ramen, appetizers, etc.Dietary restrictions: We ask for some basic veggie rolls most of the time and the results are good.Parking: Either in front of their shop or in the whole foods parking lot, no big deal.“
“After spending hours in NRG watching rodeo, we were so hungry and found a nearby restaurant named Taro. It was really great to have meal there, including sushi and drink. We enjoyed the ramen and all you can eat. The old guy waiter was very nice and humorous. I liked him. Very good service.“
“Toyori is an interesting fusion restaurant which serves both Japanese ramen and Taiwanese sizzling steak. While I cannot speak to the Japanese ramen, I say that their signature rib-eye steak was some of the best I've ever had.What made it stand out:1. The sauce - I typically go for the classic black pepper sauce but the combination of the black pepper sauce with the mushroom and tomato sauce was too intriguing to pass up. I was a big fan of the sauce (even though I'm not the biggest fan of tomatoes in general).2. The steak was a perfect medium as ordered. I find that I don't usually pay much attention to how the steaks on these sizzling plates are cooked since they're usually pretty thin but Toyori's steak was not only cooked perfectly but was tasty as well.3. Portion size for the sizzling steak was good; I certainly was not hungry after eating everything.I will also note that the service was fantastic for our party of seven, and their physical menus have large beautiful pictures of the food.All in all, I will definitely be back for the sizzling steak (and maybe the ramen) when I'm back in Houston.“
“food here is great! however there’s only pork options or vegan, u can ask to take out the pork though! No ramen with chicken in it. Would be amazing if they had more variety for that! they have a self serve area that has water and bowls/bags for to-go which is really nice. the broths for their ramen is amazing. (bring a jacket if you get cold easily, it’s cold in here but the ramen will warm you up)“
“I'm not an expert on ramen so I can't say this is authentic & up to par with other Asian ramens but boy is it tasty here! I especially love the wonton versions! It is a bit pricey but so is every other ramen spot. I really crave it when there is cold weather! You really shouldn't skip the shrimp tempura! It is so appetizing. Overall, 3 appetizers , 3 bowl of ramen , and 3 iced teas will run you about $95. It is worth it!“
“I love Ramen Noodles & born & raised in New Orleans we ❤️it so when I started working @ MD Anderson. In the Medical Center I put Uber Eats on my phone & so I tried this Restaurant & Babyyyyyy when I tell u I've bed. Hooked every since then So today is Ramen Noodles day so since Zi have had it in some months I decided to get it before work this place is A is A Gem I could eat it everyday it's Delicious back home we would call this place A Hole in the wall but it's worth every penny I give it A 5 ⭐!!!“
“I’ve been to this place several times and they never disappoint. I’ve gotten various items, but with this trip, I got the tonkotsu ramen. Nice heat, good noodles, delicious chashu, and delightful broth. I wish the broth were a bit creamer, but other than that, it’s amazing regardless. Service is quick and friendly. Interior is cozy with a good amount of seating. I recommend a visit! They have a few other locations around Houston as well.“
“First time we went- my son loved the Ramen. I wasn't happy w the poke Bowl i got but the staff was nice and they helped me choose something else. Personal preference I guess- Wasabi isn't my thing and the dish I got had honey Wasabi on it that I didn't notice.But the appetizers were amazing and the place itself is soo nice“
“They food is good the ramen is nice but I ain't even gon cap it got some weird aftertaste just the noodles don't get me wrong the soup broth and base was bussin and the meat was bussin which is what I mainly care about but them noodles tasted kinda funny tbhh maybe it's just me tho everything else was solid“
“On Friday afternoon, I brought my wife back to eat at this restaurant. The food was delicious last time so I came back. This time I was a bit disappointed. The taste was still good but the broth was too cold. When it's cold, I like to eat hot food but the bowl of chicken noodle soup was cold. In my order, I asked for extra bean sprouts. When I brought it out, the bean sprouts were already put in both my bowl and my wife's bowl, so it was more appropriate to put them on separate plates for everyone to eat and pick up for themselves. My wife's and my ice water glasses both had no ice, weren't cold enough, my bowl had a large chip on it, my wife's bowl had a smaller chip. I think if the bowls use coffee sticks, are the ingredients of good quality? I don't know this. The staff serving the bowl held his thumb in the bowl. I don't know if his thumb touched the broth, but it felt a bit disgusting. The bowl should be brought out using a tray or cart. In general, the taste is good, but it's too cold and not delicious, 5/10, the service is 3/10. Next week I'll try again and edit the review later, contributing my personal opinion. I still like this restaurant. I hope it improves and becomes better so that Vietnamese cuisine can be loved and spread.EditedCame back to try 3 more times, every time it was delicious and hot, my wife complimented me, I never had a chipped bowl again, the staff was ok, the service was good, it seems like last time it was just an accident.“
“Ramen had a rich and balanced broth, noodles absorbed flavors beautifully. Bowl was aesthetically pleasing, and the colors and textures added visual appeal. Ambiance of the restaurant complemented the experience comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Staff attentive and friendly, quick and efficient service added to the positive aspects of the establishment!“
“Brought the family here for a late lunch/early dinner on a Sunday. Overall a wonderful experience. The atmosphere different. There are four different types of seating. Open seating, bar, the multi-level honeycomb tables, and individual private table. We were seated in one of the curtained tables. I really liked being separated from the open area. It filled some of the noise and allowed the family to focus on each other. We ordered Takoyaki octopus balls and pan fried gyoza dumplings as appetizers. The Takoyaki had great flavor. The only negative I could say about the whole meal would be the octopus was chewy. That is no big deal, sometimes it just is. The dumplings were great. I ordered the Omurice with pork tonkatsu. Comes with rice with a runny omelet on top. They usually serve it with a sauce, but could not decide which one I wanted. I went ahead and had both the demi glace and curry sauces on the side. An “Amazing Lemonade” to drink. All had great flavor. I’ve been wanting to try this dish for a while and glad a restaurant does a good job at it in the Houston area. I cannot remember the name of the meal my wife ordered. It was a teriyaki beef burger with rice buns. It came with a side of fries purple sweet potatoes. I believe it is on a special menu, so it may not be available if you go. Both were delicious. I stole a bunch of her fries. My some ordered the Japanese curry ramen combo with Thai iced tea. My daughter ordered The Mega combo also with a Thai iced tea. Again, the ramen were perfect. I am not a fan of Thai tea. To me it usually has too much cinnamon to me, but I really liked theirs. All of our meals came with a steamed pork bao bun. My wife hates pork, especially pork belly, but she ate the whole thing. For dessert we shared one Japanese Cherry Blossom Jelly since we were all stuffed. It was a light and refreshing end to the meal. Overall the food is fantastic and all that was a little over $100. A pretty good deal that stuffed four grown adults. Glad this place is over an hour drive from the house or I would be tempted to eat here all the time.Parking: The shopping center has a bunch of businesses that fill up the parking spots. Had to circle a few times waiting for a space to free up.“
“Everything I ate was delicious. Will definitely be back again. Sushi was fresh and well prepared, small plates were different than what you’d usually find at a Japanese spot. The miso glazed cod (gindara) and the black sesame spinach were highlights of the meal.“
“Delicious meal options! The tempura is perfect, the watermelon boba slushie is top notch, and the ramen broth is slurp worthy!Parking: We were able to park right in front of the door.Kid-friendliness: Comfortable environment for kids to enjoy too.“
“I had a great experience here. New ramen shop opened up near Seiwa Market. This is their soft opening so they open from 11am-3pm. We came before 11am so it was still closed. An employee came out and yelled "We're open!". We were the first one in and we got a warm welcome from all the employees. People just kept coming in every minute and soon the place was packed.This place has done well for itself even though it's their soft opening. They have great service here with the waiters checking up on you every now and then if everything was okay.Spicy ramen: enough spiciness and rich broth. The noodles were thinner and the bowl was a decent size. You can add in extra noodles and a half-boiled egg.Tsukemen: also known as dipping noodles. The broth was too salty for my taste. The noodles' size was bigger. The egg was cooked just right and has an interesting sweet taste. I find dipping noddles too be a little tedious to eat so I just poured the broth into the bowl which defeats the whole purpose of dipping noddles but whatever works for you.There are combos that you can order. It comes with a side and a drink. We ordered combo A with the fried chicken and pink lemonade. It was surprising when the waitress gave us another cup of pink lemonade when the one on our table was almost empty. I didn't think they would do a refill on a combo that cost only 4 dollars.“
“If u like sushi this is a quick bite place But not for a fine dining The overall quality is not meeting standards But the layout and portion is generous Really good for someone just want to taste a little The service is good But will not return“
“Food was fantastic! We caught them on a busy night so service was kinda hectic, waiters weren't sure what table was theirs and that kinda thing, but we will be back. Cabbage was out of this world and skewers of meat were all delicious.“
“Came in for dinner and had a wonderful experience. Staff was greatly helpful and recommended the Ichiro Ramen dish for me. I can tell you, it was very delicious. Really enjoyed the atmosphere there. Plus, it was nice to see Naruto on the front window enjoying his bowl of Ramen. Will definitely come back again when in Houston.“
“Went to try this place out. And it was good!!! It reminded us of Ramen Nagi, if you've ever had their ramen. This is a ramen spot we'd go back to gor sure. We got the Spicy Miso and Tantanmen. Both were good, just hit the spot. I would recommend this place to people who like their ramen with a very flavorful broth, touch of creaminess, and noodles that are cooked to perfection! ?“
“The place itself is super cute and buzzing with people! The atmosphere is calm and the waitstaff is super friendly and helpful when it comes to answering questions about the menu. I wasn’t super impressed by the noodle bowl I ordered however the drinks they had were 10/10. I do think that if I go back I will definitely try to aim for the hot pot instead!“
“Just left here and the food was amazing! Definitely enjoyed the atmosphere. I had the spicy naka ramen and my husband had the spicy miso ramen and they were both delicious. The staff was very attentive and always came to check on us. Hidden gem in sugarland! Highly recommend and this will be our new ramen spot!“
