Went for lunch. Nice little spot that has an Asian store attached to it. Food was good, I had the pork buns and the crispy chicken bowl. I'll go back. read more

My mom and I stopped by Good Chef to browse their little market and decided to grab a bite at the restaurant while we were there. I'll start with a positive: I actually really liked the anime-themed decor. It's unique, fun, and definitely adds personality to the space. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. The customer service wasn't great. It felt inattentive and unwelcoming, which immediately set the tone for the meal. We ordered two servings of crab rangoon, and I was honestly shocked at both the price and the quality. To put it simply it was the worst crab rangoon I've ever had. They tasted like they were deep-fried in old oil, with that heavy, stale aftertaste. They didn't seem fresh at all more like something pulled from a freezer and quickly dropped into the fryer. When I opened them up, there was barely any filling besides cream cheese. I couldn't find any actual crab inside, which was really disappointing, especially considering how much they charged for them. I was genuinely sad about how much money we spent on those two orders, only to be completely let down. I love supporting unique, themed spots and the anime vibe really had potential but unfortunately, the food quality and service just didn't meet expectations. I hope they improve because the concept itself is cute. read more

Good Chef Restaurant - Crab Krab Rangoon (6 pcs ) 芝士云吞 - Asian Fusion Near Me - Miami, Florida

Pretty good food overall. We got so many different and distinct things on the menu. My teen wasn't very fond of the creamy garlic chicken udon dish, but I guess that doesn't really belong on an Asian menu. The stand outs were: string beans and fried rice; simple seems the way to go here! The best part - the server. She was a true gem! read more

Thanks to all the great reviews I couldn't resist a visit to this restaurant. Small and clean, the ceiling and walls are all hung with Asian inspired decor. It adds to the coziness. We were there when it opened and within minutes all tables were full before noon. The food is fantastic. The beef ramen was delicious. The beef portions were generous and the broth was bursting with flavor. The crab Rangoon appetizer was small (about 5 pieces) but so crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, I could've had 20 more. The chicken pad Thai was good but the portion was smaller than I'm used to. It was also a little too "wet", but the flavor was on point. The service was very prompt and the servers were super sweet. Great little spot. Can't wait to return to try their other goodies. read more

This is a hidden gem. From signing in for your reservation to the bustling Asian market on the other side of the store. The food and service are the real stars. Authentic Ramen and home made noodles !!! The food was delicious. I had the beef noodle soup and there was plenty of beef. You have to check out this spot. read more

I would say the best ramen in town is at Good Chef. The staff is great and treat us very well. The ambience is small and has a few booths and tables. Make sure to write name down on list with number. Back to the ramen, I order the spicy miso ramen. I would recommend getting the ramen with handmade noodles with charsui pork belly. You will NOT regret it. read more

Good Chef Restaurant - Spicy Miso Ramen 味增拉面 - Asian Fusion Near Me - Miami, Florida

Good Chef Restaurant needs a rebrand to Amazingly Awesome Food Chef because that's exactly what it is. The menu and quality of the food cannot be understated. The ramen is spectacular. The Korean Cheese Topokki flawless. I'm not a huge anime person but I also loved how over the top it was with the anime around the restaurant. This place is truly a hidden gem in West Miami. Expect a wait when you get there but hopefully not too long of one. The place is great and exactly what Miami needs more of. Delicious food in an authentically cute place. Also check out the store it's attached to. I've never seen so many Asian products in Miami before! read more

I come here for the RAMEN!!! Despite having my fair share of Japanese restaurants near home, Good Chef's Tonkotsu Ramen with Char Siu Pork Belly is my top choice. This is my favorite ramen because the pork belly is beautifully charred and has the best texture, and the ramen egg is perfectly marinated on the outside and jammy on the inside. This cute restaurant is tucked away in the corner of an Asian market in a shopping center near FIU. Service is always great. read more

This place was amazing!!! Located inside a grocery store I loved the decor. The staff was super friendly and our food came hot and fresh! I thought my husband would burst with donuts! He couldn't get enough of them. We couldn't finish our food the portions were huge! I literally woke up at 3:30 in the morning and finished off my shrimp COLD!! Since it was the day before Father's Day they gave my husband a few dessert treats to go! The next time we're in Miami, we'll definitely be back! read more

Good Chef Restaurant - Pork Roman soup - Asian Fusion Near Me - Miami, Florida

FIRST THING YOU NEED TO DO IS ADD YOUR NAME TO THE LIST! On busier days, you will see a line of people. Do not make the line. You need to add your name and number to their wait list. Let me start by thanking my brother for putting me on. He's been a regular at the Good Chef for years, and now I'm becoming one too! I go at least twice a month for their delicious ramen, great service, and cool ambiance. I tried ramen here for the first time and I haven't been able to stop eating it since! We'll get to that in a sec. To start, they have a great selection of appetizers. My faves are the Fried Chicken gyoza (6 pcs), the Fried Veggie gyozas, and the Chili Spicy Chicken. They come out hot and crunchy so make sure to let it cool for a minute before trying it! Next, the ramen!! My go-to is the Kimchi Spicy Ramen with extra chicken. Delicious! It definitely has a nice kick to it so prepare to start sweating! I've also had the Yummy Spicy Ramen w/ chicken. My brother's favorite is the Signature Spicy Pork Noodle w/ extra charsui pork belly. Honestly, the ramen is so good, it's hard for us to try anything new, but they have plenty of other options. From rice bowls, dry noodles, and main courses to try! Got room for dessert? Always! We've tried a couple of their Thai donuts, delicious, their Rainbow Mile Crepe Cake, the cutest, and got to sample their Taro balls, which were incredibly yummy with the condensed milk! If you want to try sake and like something sweet and not too strong, I recommend trying the HANA AWAKA (pink bottle) or OZEKI HANA AWAKA SPARKLING YUZU (yellow bottle). My faves, which are a bit stronger, but I feel pair well with the spicy ramen are SHO CHIKU BAI and HAKUSHIKA HANAKOHAKU. I haven't even gotten to the best part, the service! Linda, Katie, and Zen are hands down the best! They are extremely kind, and make you feel so welcomed. They are truly what make the experience complete. To me, this is the perfect spot for tasty Asian food, if you like anime, or even want to try something new! They're pretty quick getting the food out, even when it's packed. It's amazing! Also, it's so cool that they have an Asian market as a part of their location. They have really great snacks and drinks! This review is so long, but I really wanted to show this place the love it deserves! Hope you love it as much as I do! read more

I had been wanting to try Good Chef for a while now but I wasn't able to due to long lines and time of day. The restaurant is small and has an Asian market within. I finally got the opportunity during lunch and it did not disappoint. My coworker and I enjoyed an amazing lunch within our one hour lunch break from a conference and they were timely, efficient, and delicious. The honey garlic chicken was stellar and big enough to share. I'd definitely recommend coming here if in the area and I also want to return to peruse the Asian market. Many things caught my eye. read more

If you're looking for authentic flavors and great value, Good Chef is the place. We had a feast of dim sum pork and beef gyozas, siu mai, and dumplings plus a solid Tonkatsu Ramen. Everything was flavorful and served quickly. I love that it's a one stop shop since you can hit their well stocked market right after dinner. Great food, great prices, and excellent service. read more

I returned and this time we were seated right away. I was craving ramen from last time; therefore, I ordered Tonkotsu Ramen and it was delicious. It has a different flavor than what I'm used to but it was still good. I would order it again. And once again, the service was good. read more

This is definitely a hidden gem, it's small and intimate and it's decorated super fun with tons of anime statues and pictures. I started off with the bao buns which were delicious, I had the yummy spicy ramen and I added chicken , I also recommended the house made noodles they're thicker than regular ones. The broth was delicious and all blended together really well, I also tried the chicken pad thai which was very good and the honey garlic chicken was amazing , I highly recommend getting that. The place doubles as an Asian market so there was tons to do after we ate and bought some fun sweet treats. read more

Nestled in a shopping mall and inside an Asian Market you find this delicious spot. The decor is super cute, service is great, and food is amazing without destroying your wallet. The best part is that right after you can walk on over to the Asian market and grab some stuff to go, it's a great experience. I grabbed the food to go because I had just landed from a trip and the food was still super hot and delicious by the time I got home. Must Haves: Ramen (any kind), Pork Gyozas (steamed), Garlic Butter Udon Noodles (mild is super spicy so be careful if you're sensitive), honey garlic chicken. read more

Amazing service and food. WOW I cannot say enough good things about this place!!! Amazing!!!!

Highly recommend this place!! They were so attentive and communicative about seating us (since we were a party of 7 and it took a bit longer). Linda was amazing!! She was so helpful and quick with our service. I eat quite a bit of ramen in New York so I can be a bit picky and this ramen really exceeded my expectations! The spicy miso was excellent, the egg savory, and they do not skimp on the pork belly AT ALL. It was so much and soooo soft and tender- delicious. The pad Thai, beef udon noodle soup, and popcorn chicken app were among other faves on the table. Would definitely come back for ramen again :) read more

Adorable Mom & Pop Restaurant right by FIU ^.^ Friendly staff, reasonable pricing, unique dishes, and scrumptious foods!!! We ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen with chicken and the Pad Thai Noodles with a side of Steam BBQ Pork Bun (3 pcs). Everything was packed with so much flavor. We loved it so much we will be pack very soon haha! The place is very small with only 13 tables so the wait times can get pretty long but definitely worth the wait (: They have an Asian Market right next door that is connected to the restaurant and you can look around for the time to go by quicker. Also, it's first come first serve no reservations. Highly recommend anyone to check them out! ^.^ read more

Came here for ramen. Ordered the spicy miso ramen and added shrimp as my protein. Got the boba mango drink. Everything was so good! We also got appetizers. The ginger pork dumplings and some fried shrimp. Also delicious. The service was on point. They refilled our waters often and the food came quickly. The ambiance is heavy on anime themes and feels like you're in a little ramen shop in Japan. There is an Asian mart next door which connects through the inside. It's really cool. This place is on the small side and gets busy so I recommend you come early. read more

This is my first time coming here and I was not impressed. I ordered a tonkotsu ramen and it lacked flavor. The chicken gyoza was okay. But overall, I was not satisfied with what we ordered. This restaurant is hidden inside an Asian market and it's super small. So if you have a big party, I don't think they'll be able to accommodate you. Our server was nice, took our order and they always made sure we had our glasses filled with water. If I come back here again, I will try something else other than the ramen. read more

Good Chef Restaurant offers authentic Chinese and Asian cuisine in the middle of Miami. Centrally located in a busy shopping plaza with plenty of free parking, this small and cozy restaurant offers a menu with a variety to choose from, including boba teas. I came here for the first time for a business meeting with two coworkers because we wanted to try out something different, and it sure did not disappoint. The service was good and the space was a bit tight with a lot of manga decorations and drawings, which make it instagrammable and great for the kids. We ordered the rice bowls (rice with pork belly and golden chicken steak) and lychee and strawberry teas. They were all delicious. Overall, 100% recommended. read more

I went to their Bird Road location on 40 Street & 114 Avenue to satisfy a craving for gyozas. Ordered chicken gyozas, butterfly shrimp, scallion pancake and passion fruit tea. All were delicious, freshly made and hot. Received a small cake on the house which was very tasty. Server was very nice, attentive and quick with my order. The restaurant is very small but their food is amazing. Anime decor on their main wall. While I was there, they had several take out orders and pick ups. They have a great appetizer menu, fried rice, ramen, bowls and noodle dishes. 5 stars! read more
