My go-to order is the Wagyu A5 ramen -- rich, flavorful, and always hits the spot. I also love getting their nigiri, which is another must-order for me. The atmosphere reminds me a lot of being in Japan. It can get a little cozy and tight inside, but honestly, I think that's part of the experience and adds to the charm. Mensho is definitely a place I keep coming back to. If you're looking for great ramen and Japanese food in Arizona, this is one of my favorite spots to add to your list!!

It was just good. We got the garlic edamame, GKO and the spicy toripaitan ramens. Edamame was…read moreedamame, nothing outstanding. I expected more garlic flavor. GKO had too much gobo, the broth was honestly too thick and creamy. I would honestly rate it a 5/10. Spicy toripaitan was better than the GKO, but still only about a 6/10. Presentation was nice, but I can't see myself making the drive back, unfortunately. Staff was attentive and fast though! Restaurant was clean.

Tonight I ordered a Coke Zero and enjoyed a cucumber salad and a Spicy Sapporo Miso Butter Ramen. Asked for spicy level 5 but received a #3. I was in Ramen paradise. Heat was ok, flavor is crazy delicious. The salad is fresh, crisp tossed in a very nice Chef Crafted dressing. I also ordered a #5 Spicy Mayu Tokotsu Ramen to go, Service 5/5 Tonight just like my last visit was great. It was 4:40 pm and the restaurant wasn't as busy this hour. I had several people checking in with me. Loved that "whomever was available" checking in. Atmosphere Who cares, It's all about the food here.

We were seated immediately and our server walked us through the menu to explain why they were so special. They're known for their sizzling hot plates where they mix it for you right at the table. My friend got a vegetarian ramen and it came with a generous amount of broccoli and tofu, she loved it. The shrimp tempura was crispy and takoyaki flavorful. we also got the spicy chicken Cajun ramen, which had the perfect amount of kick. The atmosphere was cozy and casual. We will definitely be coming back

The restaurant has a cute atmosphere, the music wasn't too loud, and they even had the FIFA World Cup on the TVs, which made for a fun place to sit and eat. If you order one of the sizzling plates, it comes with a bowl of miso soup. The miso was really good and didn't have that overly fishy flavor that some places have. We also tried the fried pork dumplings, which were pretty standard potstickers, but they were done well. The sweet and sour dipping sauce had just a tiny bit of spice that made it a little more interesting. The pork soup bao were another good choice, with plenty of filling and really good flavor. I ordered the Wagyu sizzling plate, and it was definitely the highlight of the meal. It comes out on an extremely hot plate, which gives some of the rice a nice crispy texture. Everything was cooked well, and the overall flavor was really good. The service was excellent too. There were two servers taking care of the dining room, and both were friendly, answered our questions, and stayed on top of refilling our water throughout the meal. Overall, this was a really enjoyable experience with good food, great service, and a fun atmosphere. I'd definitely come back and try more of the menu.

The meat quality was pretty good, esp the beef belly. I'm not a fan of the electric grills, as they would overcook the meat pretty fast, but the servers will turn it down if you ask them. We like being in control of the grill, but it's a nit picky thing. :) The only thing that was strange was that they had told us that they were short on veggies and were saving them for their main dishes aka they wouldn't give us an onion. Other than that, the servers were sweet, and we pretty much had the place to ourselves. For Arizona, this was ok. 5 stars for blasting more OG K-pop music ala Big Bang and EXO! :D

My oh Maisen Katsu!…read more It's been a while since I ate at the H-Mart market eatery food hall, and not for lack of trying. I've been to H-Mart a couple times recently and wanted to eat there but it was closed, I went too late. Today I went for lunch-- And I'm glad I did, it was SO delicious. The food hall was busy on Thursday around noon, however still plenty of open seating available for me. Sometimes on the weekend you might be waiting for people to finish before finding a spot. Today was easy, peasy. My food was quick, took around 10 minutes. The orders were flying out of the katsu kitchen!! They call it out and you can see on a small monitor when your number is ready. I walked around the food stalls before deciding I wanted katsu. I'm very happy with my choice. The person in front of me was picking up their order and it looked really good. So I copied them-- #8 cheese katsu!! The woman taking orders was very friendly and helpful. I told her I would eat there but wouldn't finish it due to big portions so I tried to order it to go, she advised I get it regular and then box up the leftovers. She was so right! The presentation alone is fun like fajitas and she said it's all packaged separately when ordered for take out. Great tip from her. She could have just let me do that but she understood what I had told her. I chose the pork katsu, you can get chicken also. The #8 dish is served with katsu sauce/gravy, and mozzarella cheese sizzling on a skillet. On the side is rice and cabbage, and a clear broth. It was absolute heaven. This is a very decadent dish with all the cheese and sauce. And it changes the texture of the katsu, I could tell it was crispy but it also was covered in cheesy goodness so less crispy than the other katsu options. On the bottom of the skillet is the most crunchy cheese bits that you can scrape off to get that fried cheese goodness. And the portion was big, 2 pieces of meat! Enough that I had half of it to take home. This is definitely enough to share. Next time I'll try the katsu & udon combo or the katsu sando so that I get more of the crispy katsu texture. The cheese version is more smothered and covered, but very yummy though! On the menu they also have noodle dishes with soba, ramen, and udon. I can't speak on those since I didn't try them. There are lots of other noodle options in the food hall though, so I would definitely recommend getting the katsu, and if you also want noodles, the combo option. I'll definitely come back to this food stall when craving some katsu.

Vegan ramen - tasty, but pricy…read more Tried the vegan ramen here and it was genuinely delicious -- full of flavor and clearly made with care. My main hesitation is the price; it felt a bit steep for what you get. Also, this isn't really a dish that holds up well as leftovers, so keep in mind you'll want to eat it fresh and finish it in one sitting rather than planning on a second meal out of it. Overall, tasty option if you're craving vegan ramen, just budget accordingly and plan to enjoy it all in one go.

The noodles were great texture, the broth was super flavorful, and the sides were quite nice. I've been thinking about this meal every day since. It is a small spot, almost looks closed from the outside. There was just one server who appears to be the owner, and he was very nice and attentive. He checked in to make sure we knew how to eat the noodles properly and gently let us know when the kitchen and restaurant were closing. The croquettes were very nice, and I normally am not a huge fan of takoyaki but the octopus texture in these was nice and soft. There was not too much octopus in them though, so if that's important to you... :( Would definitely come back and probably order the exact same thing...

My friend had some kind of a combo meal and it looks fantastic. In fact I wish I had ordered that instead of the ramen. My ramen was yummy, although I thought it would be a darker beef ramen and it was not. Our server was not the friendliest in the world but she got the job done. I guess that's all the counts. I would definitely come back here to try the Hawaiian dishes because they look seriously delicious, but I wouldn't make a special trip for the ramen.

However this allows the staff to be more directly invested in your experience and keep the same level of quality in each dish. The fish is always fresh. The sushi rolls are creative enough to stand out from your local sushi restaurant but not over the top that the flavors get so mixed up that you're not sure what you're eating. The star of the show is their truffle escolar. I can't say more than if you are a fan of sashimi, then you will want to get this to be the first and last dish you order.
