    Today I was in the mood for ramen so wanted to try this place as its been a while. I ordered the spicy miso chicken skewer ramen and pork dumplings to-go. Evonne, the hostess was very pleasant and helpful in choosing the ramen options. The miso flavor was really tasty and good for the area. I like the simple Asian modern decor at this restaurant, nice vibes. I really had forgotten this place was back here because you can't see it from the street but easy to get to. Give it a try if you're craving ramen in Katy!

    Egg Roll, Dumplings, Side Baby Spinach Salad
    Clarissa V.

    I came here on a whim for my lunch break and was pleasantly surprised with their lunch menu. I picked the beef ramen noodles and it came with a side salad, dumplings, and an egg roll. Although the ramen did not come in "spicy", the waiter was able to accommodate and bring spicy sauce on the side (including Buldak!). The restaurant was clean and seemed like a great place to have a mid day bite.

    Aji rice..

    Broth was extremely bland...the aji rice..dont do it to yourself. Tasted old and dry. They burned my potstickers and wasabi steak. Once the waiter bring you your food you never see them again, They played top 40 music. So reminded me of a fast food place than an actual restaurant

    Ribeye skewer

    This is a hidden gem! Such a cozy and comforting spot, with some of the best food around at reasonable prices. We had the ribeye skewers, spicy edamame, chicken karage, and aji tonkotsu - all were phenomenal! we forgot to take pics, everything smelled too good to stop for pics. The chicken karage was juicy unlike most spots we have tried. Hospitality and atmosphere is a 10/10.

    Chicken Skewer Ramen with Spicy Miso ( egg noodle) and I added an extra egg

    I think I've lost count of how many times I've ordered from here lol I love the ramen my two fav are the tan tan and chicken skewers with the spicy miso! Literally my favorite. Also definitely recommend trying out the appetizers!

    Chicken Skewer Ramen
    Wendy T.

    Had a good lunch on one of the weekends. I had the chicken skewer ramen which I thought was good and had a lot of ingredients. However, the chicken skewer as a little too grilled/burnt for me. We also had the purple yam cake and sweet potato tempura. I really like the purple yam cake, but the sweet potato tempura was a so so for me. It was not the orange sweet potato tempura that other restaurants serve, and it was also kind of hard so it was a bit difficult to chew. My mom had the Aji Tonkotsu, and she really enjoyed it. Staff was really nice and the restaurant is small but cute. Overall, it was a nice meal and I would like to visit again for the ramen.

    Gyoza Plate
    Dara A.

    S/o to Yelp for this find! 9/10! A gem if ya ask me :) Food: Tan Tan Ramen-- 8/10, if probably enjoy it more without the protein lol it was a little too much for me but the broth was A1! Egg Roll-- 10/10! Tasted extremely authentic & fresh omg. Chicken Karaage-- 10/10! The sauce they used was tooooooo good! I used the leftover to dip my egg roll in it and it paired perfectly. Gyoza-- 7/10, it was straight, I've had better. Drinks: Sake Bomb Special -- $2.95 Went on a random Wednesday around 8 o'clock and within 30 minutes there was no more seating. I'll definitely be back, they were too good!!! IG: @eatgoodtx Tiktok: @abidaremii

    Sweet Potato Tempura appetizer. Recommend.

I'm proud that they have servers of this caliber at Asian restaurants in Houston, TX. Usually you see professional servers at upscale restaurants. There was a busboy there towards the end, and even he was super professional. Whoever the manager is at this location, you guys are doing an outstanding job training the staff here. Keep up the good work! 2. Price - about $15/bowl. 3. Ambiance - The decor here is beautiful. There are natural lighting from the front, with wood panels everywhere, lanterns hung high. They did a nice job decorating the place and you definitely feel as if you're in Japan somewhere. 4. Food - This is where this place shines compare to all the ramen places in Houston. They have the option of low sodium broth. I took one sip, and it felt like home cooked Ramen. I'm not talking about instant ramen that you buy from the store, but the ramen made from scratch. I often go to ramen places in Houston and I dread going because I know how salty they taste. There are 2 other locations I have in mind in Houston that are also my favorites. But I would say this is not bad compared to the bowl of ramen I had in Narita, Japan. If you're wondering what I've ordered, it was the CHICKEN RICH RAMEN and make sure to request for low sodium. 5. Cleanliness - Dining area is well kept, clean, and the busboy is on top of things. The restroom is questionable. The personal restroom doors are hard to close and lock. For management, have a look at the restrooms and see if you can improve things. SUMMARY: I would definitely come back. It is just THAT GOOD!

The age takoyaki was creamy and good to share amongst a group. The toro carpaccio was amazing as well and melted in your mouth. We also ordered chicken curry udon, chicken karaage, and tantan noodles. All had really great flavors but my personal favorite was the tantan noodles which came with poached egg, sauce, and garnishes that you got to mix into the noodles. Super creamy and nutty! I really loved the vibe of the restaurant too, it's small but has a homey vibe that would be great for either a small group hangout or a date. There's a lot of bars to visit nearby too. Our server was also so sweet and brought us a baggie of Japanese candies & sweets after our dinner since it was Valentine's Day. Only complaint was parking. Very small lot and very packed!

The pepper tuna tataki and hamachili were fresh and flavorful. The karaage was crispy, tender and juicy, and the agedashi tofu had that perfect texture in a savory broth. All were sooo good. The Zen Mega Dragon roll, hamachi hamachi roll, and Extra Picante roll were all fresh and excellent. The only two dishes that didn't quite wow us were the hijiki and the Rock N Roll roll. Both were a bit basic compared to everything else on the table. The yakisoba noodles did take a little while to come out, but wow... they were soooo worth the wait. Savory, hot, and incredibly satisfying. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, which makes it even better. There is free parking, but the lot is small. When it's busy, finding a spot can be a little tricky. We will definitely be back to explore more of the menu.
