    Spicy chicken ramen
    Scott R.

    Fun and kind of trendy place. I eat a lot of ramen and really enjoyed how fresh everything was. Had the spicy chicken ramen. Great broth, tender chicken, and fresh noodles. Will be back!

    Orange chicken fried rice and wonton soup
    Jacob A.

    So the service here was great no complains the ramen was supper good and the orange chicken was amazing the rice was a little mushy but wasn't terrible and the wonton soup tasted a bit watered down. Everything els was amazing enjoyed some anime shows that they were playing super cool.

    The udon noodles with vegetables and the beef is removed

    Just tried the udon noodles with angus beef. Boy, let me tell you. Do not and I repeat do not order this dish. I don't know what type of beef this is that they are putting in this dish, but it is not edible. I'm not sure what it is. I took a few bites and spit it out it was so chewy and has zero flavor and the texture was horrible. I removed the so-called beef and ate the noodles with the vegetables which the noodles were fresh but if the beef taste like this in the udon noodle dish, I will never purchase any beef from the establishment. It is the worst beef. I've tasted at an Asian restaurant and that is not an understatement. I was so disappointed. I was disappointed enough that I will not return. The beef is suspect and I'm a leave it at that. can't speak on the other dishes.

    Karaage with rice
    Alejandro R.

    Airi Ramen is a hip local ramen joint with several locations around the Houston area. They serve a variety of Japanese dishes including ramen, stir-fried udon, rice bowls (tempura, tonkatsu, teriyaki chicken), poke, and more! Vibe: A good size with lots of seating. Cool interior, artsy mural on the wall. Good casual hang out spot. Service: We had a great attentive server. Food came out pretty quickly, and piping hot. Food: We ordered the basil chicken kaarage, katsu chicken bao, and tonkotsu ramen. The kaarage tasted more like Taiwanese popcorn chicken, and it was delicious! It came right out of the fryer, and the aroma of Chinese five spice and white pepper was intoxicating! It is served with fried thai basil on a small bed of cabbage and shaved carrots, which added extra texture and color. A pretty substantial side of spicy mayo is also included. The chicken was hot, juicy, and tasty! Definitely dip in in the spicy mayo to get to a whole other level. The spicy mayo is tangy, surprisingly flavorful, and has a small mild spicy kick (I think there's some yummy togarashi in there). If you want to elevate further and transcend its status as a great appetizer, order a side of rice and mix it all together - it is phenomenal as its own rice dish! We will likely come back just for that alone. Next, we had the katsu chicken bao. The katsu was piping hot and encased in a bed of lettuce, teriyaki, and spicy mayo between the bao. The flavor combo here is on point, as you get lots of savory from the spicy mayo, chicken katsu, and bun, but also some sweetness from the teriyaki and coolness from the veg. Be careful, these things are addicting! Bao is soft and holds all the ingredients very well, the sauces boost all the flavors, and the katsu is juicy, crunchy, and cooked perfectly. Lastly, we had the tonkotsu ramen. It was OK, but did not blow us away - we have had better at other Houston spots. The noodles were a little overcooked (for ramen), broth felt like it was lacking in depth and the flavor was monotone, chashu was a strip of pork belly that was a little tough and not circular or well marinated, mushrooms were a bit tough and mostly stems. Overall, the food here is phenomenal, and you should definitely give this spot a try - especially the rice dishes and appetizers. We will definitely be coming back for that basil chicken kaarage and katsu chicken bao! Maybe try another Houston spot if you're looking for ramen. Airi ramen is Let's Eat Houston approved

    Wet bag from the soup can that soaked my pants
    Tylor T.

    I had a very terrible experience. I ordered to-go and they punched holes in the soup can and it soaked my pants. The calamari was like old squid, and it was so tiny that you almost ate flour instead of squid. The egg rolls were very oily. For the $20 I paid for this meal today, I felt like it was leftovers. I felt horrible and have no words for how disappointing this restaurant was. I ordered on Yelp and waited for 25 minutes! NEVER RETURN!

    It's been a while since we've been here. They have certainly spruced up the place. It looks great, with anime running on TVs on one side of the restaurant and a large Japanese mural on the other. They have many items on their menu in addition to ramen, including poke bowls, and yaki udon. We tried out their tonkotsu ramen and spicy miso ramen. Portions were decent, prices were about average, and taste was good but not among the best we have had.

    S7. Katsu Pork Bao
    Angelica F.

    I adore this little restaurant, especially for playing a variety of Anime on each of their TVs. I can't believe there wasn't more people inside! Calamari is yummy, cooked nicely and the texture really got to shine with the thicker cuts. People mess this dish up all the time, but here it's worth a try. The Pork Katsu Bao is a must have, extremely fresh but more importantly the fry on the pork was perfect, paired with the salad mix and spicy mayo it's just heaven in a bun. I haven't had ramen from a restaurant before, but the Spicy Miso was satisfying. The spice wasn't overpowering, just enough to give a comforting tingle and the egg was quite nice too. If you're on the fence about dropping by, just go for it! I doubt you'll regret it.

    This place was wonderful! The service was great and the orange chicken is absolutely fantastic! We will be returning.

    Tonkotsu Ramen
    Albert T.

    I've been here 3 times and each time was a hit! Located to the far right of the H‑E‑B in Fairfield next to Orange Theory, Airi Ramen is a great option for those looking for great ramen locally or a meat plate! On my visits I've had the: Pork katsu - Circa 12/2020, not sure if the portion size is the same in 2022. Nonetheless, the meal was excellent and the pork was very crispy and dipping sauce was excellent! Tonkasu ramen Circa 5/2022 - excellent broth, tender meat, great noodles. Portion size was great. Spicy miso ramen Circa 5/2022 - my favorite! Spicy but not too spicy! Definitely has a kick and makes you sweat a little. Tender meat and great noodles as usual. If you are looking for ramen option in Cypress, give Airi a try!

    B1. Tonkotsu Ramen
    Cassandra S.

    Cute ramen shop in Fairfield. The ramen was super yummy and came out quick. I ordered an extra egg and some spice on the side, since they don't offer spicy tonkotsu. The spice made the broth taste just right. The only thing that I wasn't 100% great about was surprisingly the eggs. They just didn't taste like eggs usually do. I will definitely be back as this is the best ramen I have found in Cypress so far.

    I have always been a fan of Jinya since my first time at their midtown location over more than a…read moredecade ago. Fast forward to 2026 and I have become an even bigger fan of this particular location. My niece and I absolutely love coming here for their spicy creamy vegan ramen. It has just the right amount of spice and the flavor of the broth is actually oh-so-delicious! Service is always just as great as the ramen. Must order items besides the ramen are the Brussels sprouts tempura, edamame, and the shrimp tempura. I have also tried their miso eggplant appetizer which was good but I do wish that the eggplant was sliced evenly throughout the dish so that it would have the same texture throughout the entire dish. Some pieces were cooked perfectly while others were not tender because of the cut. Regardless the flavor was still there. Really want to try their chicken ramen next because I feel like this particular location makes everything tastes wayyy better than the other ones I have tried in Houston lol.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and the servers are friendly and helpful. We stopped by for an early dinner on a Saturday evening, so the restaurant wasn't yet busy when we got there but started to fill up as we ate. There are so many different ramen options and toppings to choose from. You can choose to get the low sodium option for all the ramen if you prefer, and they also have free unsalted ramen broth refill. They also have other dishes besides ramen, and you can also customize any existing dishes with other toppings as you'd like. I got the Garlic Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen with spinach and corn, and my boyfriend got the Spicy Ramen. Both broths were so rich and flavorful. They were both slightly salty, so we also got the clear broth refill which made them just right. The ramen had a perfect chew, and the toppings were flavorful and delicious. I usually don't like bamboo toppings in ramen because of the ammonia smell, but I tried some bamboo from the Spicy Ramen that my boyfriend got, and it had no strong bamboo smells at all. I was so impressed. I also ordered the Japanese curry with chicken kaarage to-go, and they were also really tasty. I will definitely be back to Kizuki for more in the future.
