Food was amazing and very fresh, and it wasn't a lot wait time .The Ambience was nice and quite great for a date night. The menu was very easy to ready with a lot of options. The restaurant is small and intimate. My only issue is they don't have juice option for kids/toddler only alcoholic beverages and soda products. Has for customer service the servers can check the tables more offline to see if there is something needed read more

Hamaru Ramen and Handroll - Shrimp Tempura Roll Miso Ramen spicy garlic Edamame - Ramen Near Me - Killeen, Texas

My wife and I went to grab some ramen before catching a movie and decided on Hamaru! We were greeted instantly upon walking in and were allowed to sit where we pleased! We both enjoyed our ramen, I just wished it was a tad bit spicier! We enjoyed the shrimp tempura and Japanese friend chicken (spicy ' regular), both of which were very tasty! I was thrown off by how dark the shrimp tempura looked, but after tasting it with the accompanying sauce, I realized the chefs knew what they were doing. My wife had a California roll that she enjoyed, and I couldn't have asked for a better dining experience. Shoutout to Tayah for typing together the immersive ambiance and delicious food with her authenticity! The city of Killeen has a gem with this one! read more

I ordered takeout and it was packaged well and on time. The food was phenomenal and I will be back.

Finally, there's a decent ramen place in Killeen! My husband and I were intrigued when we saw this restaurant being built, and I'm happy to say that the food was worth the wait. They serve all the beloved appetizers, such as Chicken Karaage and Takoyaki. We've tried each of the ramen broth flavors, and my favorite is the Shoyu with an extra egg. They also offer delicious refresher drinks, which I enjoy while my husband explores their beer selection. The interior is small but accommodating. In addition to K-pop music videos playing on the TVs, the decor features plenty of faux flowers and lanterns. We've never experienced a long wait for anything here, whether for a table or our food. read more

I was looking for places to eat in Killeen with not much hope until I came across a supposed, new Japanese restaurant with an interesting picture of a four-roll combo that caught my attention. Recently, coming from Hawaii, I know I probably should not have been seeking this place out as I came from a place that had really good sushi in really good Japanese food, and my expectations were probably too high in terms of taste. However, there were not many choices, so I decided to get this place a try as it was close to an HEB (first time going to that store). Upon entering the restaurant, you are greeted by audible Japanese and mixed club dance music. The ambiance has a lot to offer in terms of decor There were two waiters and the one I got assigned to rubbed me the wrong way. First of all, it took ten minutes to get water and another five minutes for my order to be taken. The waiter obviously seemed like I was a bother, or he just did not want to be there. Service was a bit slow given the fact that it was not very busy. The waiter also did not check in with me unlike the tables around me. I decided to order the four roll combo with spicy tuna x 2, salmon, and shrimp tempura. The rolls came with a miso soup, which you have to ask for or it may be glossed over. Additional refills are $2.99. The rolls came out to about $29. The rolls were lined up on a plate with an unusual, but interesting presentation. I was not given plates, ginger, or wasabi. Was this a Japanese place, or was I lost? The presentation was nice, but looked better than it was. It was difficult to eat, given that all the pieces were too stuck together. Spicy tuna was good in terms of taste and had a nice kick. The salmon tasted fresh and had a nice acidic touch to it. Shrimp tempura was okay. In the end, I don't think I'll come back here. Food was not bad, but service definitely was. read more

Meh at best. Had a small order to give the place a try. We shared an Oder of Karaagae chicken based on a previous review raving about it. Also on order of dumplings. The chicken was bland and frankly boring. I liked the bed of plain white rice that the chicken was sitting on more than the chicken itself. The dumplings were ok, but I prefer the flavor and texture of the frozen varieties available at the grocery store. I'll give it another try sometime to check out their Ramen. read more

The food was amazing. Great prices too! Super inviting atmosphere the staff is great but server Michelle was absolutely AMAZING very attentive. I will be returning and have been telling all my friends about it ! read more

Hidden gem. Place doesn't look like much from the outside but this place has the best ramen in the area. Sushi is not great but average. Small sitting area but most traditional ramen restaurants are small. Service is really good, we found a hair in the sushi and the staff quickly offered to redo the order. We declined and they removed it from our bill and also gave me a complimentary fusion green tea drink when we left. Would recommend this spot for a casual low cost Asian cuisine dining experience. They also had one of the best tasting Unagi rice bowls I've had in the immediate area. read more

Food was good, especially loved the Ramen bowl! Service was great . We had take out so we didn't dine in.

Food wasn't bad but there were not many options on the menu sadly our second server was wonderful very happy and helpful unfortunately the first server who helped us managed to "forget" service and was more focused on looking busy rather than being busy. It is a beautiful little spot and very calm inside just wish there were more options on the menu. read more

First time experience- the food put the "D" in delicious. Great service, hot food and welcoming atmosphere

Quiet little place that has a peaceful atmosphere to it! There were 2 servers, I feel like 3 would be enough to run if it were completely full, but the two that were on had a nice little rush while we were there! My apologies for not getting your names, but thank you!!! My Husband and I came to lunch for our 5th Anniversary. I wanted somewhere a little different. I search Yelp and this place popped up! We did appetizers of edamame and Takoyaki (octopus fried balls) nicely seasoned, not overly fried!!! Then we ordered the spicy tube sushi roll. This one had a good tingly kick of spice to it, a little too much for me. My husband had the Tonkotsu Ramen extra spicy. It was very fresh, 9 out of 10 on the flavor and texture. He wanted it way spicer (sorry he's a spicy kinda person) I ordered the unagi bowl. Came with three pieces of lightly cooked eel over steamed rice! ABSOLUTELY delicious, the unagi just melted in my mouth!!!! Then we had the Yuzu Lemonade.... Yum!!! Again cute little spot for a date night, or somewhere not overly crowded to eat!!!! Definitely going to visit again!! read more

Food was ok, but hope owner relooks at their food quality. This was the last place I ate yesterday evening. I got food poisoning and went to the hospital and felt very awful with throwing up constantly and constant diarrhea. I know this seems bad but I want the owner to make sure all food temps are safe to eat for customers and no cross contamination. It's barely 7 am, OCT 21st and getting released from the hospital. Army doctor told I have food poisoning because of my severe throwing up. I'm a little traumatized from how much it hurt throwing up non stop I will not come back to this restaurant. read more

Tried this place out with my wife, nephew and an out of town guest on Saturday, 24 August. Our guest had never had ramen so my nephew ordered for her. Immediately after the food was served, we started digging in to try it all out. Sadly after two bites and asking what the various ingredients were, she pulled out some plastic wrapper that was mixed into her ramen. We called the young waitress to inform her there was plastic wrapping cooked into the meal. Rather than being apologetic or taking the meal away to show the cook what he had done, she asked, "do you want any to still eat the ramen?" Understanding she was young, but, are you kidding me??? Would anyone want to pull a wad of plastic wrapping from their soup and continue eating a $15 bowel of ramen??!!! After mentioning this to another friend, they told us they had eaten there and ordered two ramen meals; one with everything, and the other with select add-ons. When they served the meal, the guy said that he requested no seaweed or mushrooms with his order. The server took the bowl away and said she would be right back. She did return a minute later with a bowl of ramen. He asked if it was the same thing he ordered and waited 15 minutes for. Her reply was, "yes, it is the same thing you ordered... we just picked out the seaweed and mushrooms." Again, you decide what you want to spend your hard earned money on when you dime out, but I will never eat here again, nor will I recommend this restaurant to anyone else!!! Happy dining! read more
