I'm surprised this place got a remodel/renovation. It looks much more modern and has several Asian themed murals (like Naruto and Doraemon). I wasn't too impressed with the food. I felt like my sushi burrito was kind of dry. I made my own sushi burrito and all my ingredients were there. Inflation has really increased the price of this item as well as the food choices. The topping list is somewhat limited, and now you pay $2 extra for masago. Portion looks small but it was filling. Everything is online so customer service was limited. There's three kiosks on the wall to order. Parking except on Sundays is very difficult to find. It's a block away from a paid parking lot if you can find a spot though. read more

The place is pretty good. They have tablets for you to order on, so it makes ordering the "Build your own" pretty easy. It's also a nice little spot, there's a lot of seating and they have some cute wall paintings and decor that make it feel nice. We had went after it had just opened, so it was also clean and not busy at all. I had ordered the "Build your own" sushi bowl with white rice, shrimp tempura, tamago (sweet omelette), seaweed salad, romaine lettuce, soy sauce, and sesame sauce. They have a lot of options to pick from so it's nice to customize it to your likings. My only thing is that I had ordered a bowl and I'm sure that's what I picked, but they ended up giving me a sushi burrito. I was a little disappointed at first, but at least the sushi burrito is really good. It's essentially a jumbo roll of sushi. I really enjoyed mine and each of the individual ingredients tasted really fresh and good. You get a lot with your order so I felt really full. I definitely do want to come again, and I think next time I actually would want to get the burrito. read more

I was expecting like a restaurant but it's more like a chipotle ... but really small. . Food was pretty good .. nachos were prob my fav.. a mixture of flavors.. I wasn't a fan of them mopping -they were closing in like 15 mins - but we were were still eating and there were others there aswell. Good thing is that they actually clean but bad news is the smell of cleaning supply overpowered my food. read more

1st time here & it was a Win in my book. Small location with modern interior. It was a bit confusing at 1st, as there's no podium, & no one greeted me. There's a window that says "Order Here" past the menu that I didn't see at 1st. The staff there takes your order & later delivers it to your table if you're dining in, which I did. Had a San Pellegrino, 'Take a Bao' (Pork), & J.K. Rowling Fries. Both were absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! So flavorful, so hearty. I was going to take something to go, but I was so full by the time I was done (to which I couldn't finish the fries), that I figured I'd save my to-go order for my next visit. I'd say their only "negatives," which I won't even take a star for, is all of their chairs are peeling, & there's only metered parking lot parking nearby. Take a Bao- A++ J.K. Rowling Fries- A++ Can't wait to bring Family & Friends here! Totally worth it!! read more

I have driven by this place for years and finally decided to drop in. As an avid sushi lover, I walked in with high expectations. Right away I knew I wanted to try a 'sushirrito' (sushi burrito). I like that they have the option to "build your own", so that's what I did. I kept it simple with white rice for the base - baked salmon for the protein - seaweed salad, kimchi, shibazuke, and oshinko for toppings (you can choose up to 4), miso & teriyaki for the sauce (you can choose 2), and lastly, tempura flakes for the crunch (you can choose up to 2). Altogether what a yum-tastic slow dance on my palate with every bite. I dined inside and the baked salmon was piping hot and flavorful. The teriyaki sauce was too salty, but the other ingredients masked it well. I do, however, think they're a bit overpriced for the portion/size. But I do appreciate the plethora of available options and add-ons without the extra charge. It wasn't a lot of people inside, but they seemed busy in the 'kitchen' perhaps making pick-up orders. I didn't mind the wait for my food because I could see that it was made fresh to order. The service was fine. They seem to want you to know what you want as soon as you get to the register, so, not as friendly for first-timers. But lucky for me, I am pretty decisive. The floor was sticky with each step, a personal yuck for me. But other than that, the atmosphere was calm, nice music playing, and the tables & chairs were clean. I enjoyed my food and time dining in. I would go again to try something else on the menu! read more

Went to Inspiration Roll for dinner on a Tuesday. It's a fast casual place, where you order at the register and they bring your food. I had been to I got the JK Rowling fries, takoyaki, an American Dream Sushirrito, and a bowl of their spicy tonkotsu ramen. The JK rowling fries were my favorite item. They had pork belly, spicy mayo, cheese, and sauces from Korean fried chicken. The takoyaki was average, and the sushirrito was bad. The seaweed didnt wrap all they was around so it wasnt even sealed once i took it out of the wrapping. I wish they did normal sized rolls. The ramen wasn't too salty surprisingly. It contained Noodles, Soft Boiled Egg, Scallions, Mushrooms, Bamboo Shoots, Naruto, Nori, Cabbage, Sesame Seeds, Braised Pork, and Black Garlic Truffle Oil. The garlic truffle oil overpowered the flavors of everything else in the bowl. I enjoyed their Morristown location more. read more

I ordered for delivery and ordered my fave dishes. I got the take a bao with shrimp and it arrived still hot and crunchy. Ii usually get extra sauce on the side because the mixture just makes it so yummy! The confucious nachos are my absolute favorite! Depending on which location you order from, I noticed some places put the nachos in a smaller container, but this one makes it in the bigger container which, I feel is worth all the money. The mixture with mango makes it more special with every bite. I know they are more known for the ramen and sushi burritos but these are the best haha! read more

I used to really love this place (I wrote a review 3 years ago) but I went back a few months ago and had a very unpleasant experience... I just moved to the area and remembering how much I loved the place, I figured I could eat here regularly now. One of my first few nights being moved in, I had a friend come over and we went to eat in the restaurant for dinner. We ordered at the kiosk because I like to custom order my sushi burritos and it's just easier to do so on the self service machines. I added my burrito and a drink and then my friend ordered at the kiosk too. We got our drinks we paid for and sat down after ordering and my meal came out extremely fast. By the time I got done eating, my friend's ramen hadn't come out yet and we were getting a little worried but just figured ramen takes a little longer and it's busy. The lady brings my friend his ramen and we had opted to take it to go at this point cuz I had finished, and as we are packing it up, the lady tells me I need to pay for my drink. I get confused and tell her I did at the kiosk when I first ordered and don't understand why all of a sudden she is assuming I didn't when I'm basically done with my meal and we are about to leave. She keeps trying to gesture for me to follow her to the cash register so I can pay for it but I refuse. I start desperately trying to think of how to prove I paid for everything as no receipt printed. There was no in-depth email or text just the confirmations, I had to go to my bank statement and show her my total. She printed out my receipt and tried to say I only paid $12 when my bank statement showed $16 and I didn't leave a tip (normally I do, just I had moved and was broke at the time, I did drop a few singles in the tip jar though). I tried to explain to her how I don't see how my total went from $12 to $16 if I didn't pay for a drink. She decided to eventually 'give up' and let us go after embarrassing us and making a scene for a long time about it, accusing me of stealing. Because of this, both my friend, who was his first time ever going there, and myself, who was a long time customer and planned on coming back a lot more now that I live within walking distance, are really uncomfortable and don't want to come back. Up until that point we loved it and enjoyed the experience but that was totally unprofessional and unnecessary. If ur going to accuse ur customers of stealing then u need to have a way for them to access the receipt on their end so they can defend themselves. read more

Finally! A good ramen place town! The restaurant has a nice ambiance, friendly and attentive staff, and their Original Ramen is superb!

I highly suggest checking them out! read more

Had this place many times before. Easily the best ramen you are going to find anywhere. I always get the spicy tonkotsu and my girlfriend will usually switch it up between the ramen and the poke bowls. Fresh ingredients and always great service. Idk if this is a chain or not but I wish it was closer to my house. I'd give it more stars if I could but this place is a must go if you are in the area or passing through Westfield. read more

An underrated, Asian cuisine spot on the corner of Broad St. and Central Ave. Even though they only had 1 vegan ramen option (ASK TO MAKE WITHOUT EGG & MAKE WITH RICE/TOFU NOODLES)--it HAD EVERYTHING you want in a meal--flavor, texture, variety and was SUPER FILLING AND CHEAP! If you're in the mood for ramen this is the place to go! They are also one of the few restaurants on that street open for dine-in on Sundays! read more

I have eaten at this inspiration roll many times. Most recently I ate there on 3/13/21 I honestly would have given this establishment 5/5 stars until my most recent visit. The JK Rowling fries are one of my favorite dishes but this visit they seemed to not load them up as well or cook the food the same. It was slightly disappointing. I am still going to return and order more, but something was just off this time. I also really enjoy their poke bowls. I always order with some kind of salmon and occasionally shrimp tempura. This time the salmon seemed a little less than fresh however. All my other experiences with their fish were excellent and I have no complaints I really enjoy the multi grain rice. Edamame, asparagus, and cucumber pair excellent with any options in these bowls. Normally I like avocado in a poke bowl but inspiration roll has a unique take on this with "guacamole" instead. I personally don't enjoy that, but I'm sure it would float others boat! The bao buns are delicious as well. Pork, chicken, or shrimp and you cannot go wrong! Give them a shot.

Came here on a Sunday evening to try their Poke bowl and ramen. There were four of us, i ordered the half salad half rice poke bowl- i choose the multi grain rice, light purple in color, soft, sticky kind of sweet- this would be great for sushi but i guess not for the poke bowl, I topped it with grilled chicken, edamame, lettuce, red cabbage and seaweed salad, teriyaki sauce and tempura crunch- it was delicious but kind of heavy because of the rice, best if I opted for the salad base. Then we also ordered the Take a bao- a white steamed bun topped with pork slices, spicy mayo dressing and such- sorry but it was salty, didn't taste as I'd hope for. The Miso Ramen is next, presented beautifully, lots of toppings but it came out salty probably due to the overwhelming toppings- sad to say it was a disappointment! read more

Acceptable option for ramen if you don't want to travel to nyc. Quality is okay... I'd save it for occasions when you are really craving ramen. They are generous with the contents though. There is a lot of ramen, meat and other toppings. I would normally prefer more broth, but the broth here is fairly salty so it's probably better in low doses. Price is approx $12. Not too bad I guess. It's in dt Westfield, so you will need to pay for parking. read more

The food hangover I had after devouring a sushi burrito from Inspiration Roll was well worth how dang tasty it was!! Ordered in on a Saturday night via Yelp/GH which made selecting all of the toppings on our rolls and rice bowls super easy. I would highly recommend the multigrain rice over the white rice with its cool purple color and adding some mango to the burritos was perfectly refreshing for a humid summer night. The fish was very fresh and all of the other ingredients were of high quality. Best part was the ideal sauce ratio-I went for the peanut sauce which added lots of flavor but there wasn't too much to overpower each bite. And most dishes are around $10-$12, how can you beat that?? read more

I really wanted ramen so I seached for some ramen spots and came across this place. They had an order online option so I ordered the vegetable ramen with no egg. I drove about 17 minutes to the spot and there was plenty of street parking available. I walked in and wasn't greeted or spoken to. I told the lady that was fixing something that I was picking up food and she pointed to the table. There was a sign for uber eats and pick ups on the table where they had my food. They also had utensils and condiments. The price was about $12. When I got home and dug in I would say it tasted ok, but there were a lot of different vegetables in the ramen. Not the greatest ramen I have had. read more

I'm a huge fan of the Spicy Ramen dishes! Great portions that are very filling! My favorite is the Spicy Tonkotsu! ($12) The broth alone is so good I always order more or a side when getting takeout! (+$4) It's a 10-12 hour pork broth. In the Tonkotsu you'll also find Braised Pork Belly, Wood Ear Mushrooms, Enoki Mushrooms, Bamboo Shoots, Nori, Beansprouts, a Soft Boiled Egg, and Scallions. This last time we also ordered the CONFUCIUS NACHOS! What an amazing snack! It's big enough to eat as a meal! It was such a guilty pleasure! It's practically all open faced Spicy Tuna Roll served over Fried Wonton Chips. Yummy! It has Spicy Tuna, Guacamole, and Mango! It's dressed with Cheese, Spicy Mayo, Teriyaki Sauce, and Tempura Flakes! read more

Used to love this place and my gripe isn't with the quality of the food, it's absolutely delicious. However my wife and I ordered for delivery on a Friday evening, a very simple order of ROC chicken, some gyoza and two ramens (one spicy and one not) When my delivery order arrived - it was missing both the gyoza and the ROC chicken. Additionally, we received two spicy ramens instead of one spicy and one not spicy. I called the restaurant and was immediately put on hold. After waiting a few minutes I called back in and was immediately put on hold again. Sounded busy over there (clue #1) When I finally got in touch with someone, I was met with some of the least helpful customer service. Rather than working to solve the issue and provide any type of solution - I was basically told that I was wrong. Then they went so far as to try and blame the DoorDash Driver alluding to the fact that they might have taken the Gyoza and ROC chicken. They insisted that they check every order and clearly never make a mistake. When I inquired how - then - did I receive two spicy broths rather than one (must have been that nefarious DoorDash Driver again) they had no answer, but still insisted I was wrong. Look - we all get it. The restaurant was busy and mistakes happen. But when you screw up - own it and fix it. Don't start blaming the delivery driver because your process failed & your order checker was distracted, didn't care, or wasn't doing their job. And to then sit on the phone w the customer who only got 25% of their order (out of 4 things ... it's not that hard) and tell them they're wrong - That's how you're gonna lose business rapidly. read more

Typically it's great food I have been going since they opened. I love how they have managed to provide great service throughout the pandemic. I ordered last night only to be disappointed.

This 1-star is being generous. If it's possible to give a ZERO star I would. If you are planning to get food from Inspiration Roll in WESTFIELD you have to think not only twice. Drove 30 minutes away to Westfield to get dinner. Got appetizers and their delicious ramen. Once settled at home I heated up the broth and poured it to the ramen. While mixing it, something fell out thinking it was a piece of mushroom. To my surprise, it was a plastic stopper. Called and spoke with Bashy, the manager who apologized and was willing to extend a refund. Well I expect getting a refund since that's my money. However That's it. A manager who cannot invite you back for a complimentary ramen. Bad customer service. I will never go to this place anymore. read more

I ended up getting the Gandhi poke bowl but chose half rice half greens. The bowl was great and the peanut sauce gave the bowl a great flavor. Loved the fried eggplant and the rice.

Their portions are very generous, especially their Poke Bowls and Ramen Bowls. Seemingly, they have more options for the ingredients in their poke bowls compared to other nearby places. However, their sushi does not seem as fresh or as high quality as others. I've tried their Spicy Tonkotsu ramen, which was delicious and spicy, but not overly so. Their Bao Buns are also tasty. The shrimp one is a little spicy, which I like, and the pork one is savory. My main complaint is that they've NEVER given me utensils even when I deliberately ask for them on uber eats. Even when I type it in the special requests, rather than simply checking the box for "request utensils." It's very frustrating. Additionally, I've ordered from them and asked for extra sushi in my poke bowls, which of course, costs extra. However, they left it out without calling to say they didn't have it, but charged me extra anyway. That's happened twice. Their food is great, which is why I keep coming back, but their customer service needs improvement. read more

$9 for a poke bowl or sushi burrito. Can't say that the burrito is worth it because it's not a lot of food but the poke bowl is. It was a solid 5 pounds when I took the container out. I got fresh salmon, seaweed, oshinko (japanese pickled raddish) and edamame mixed with spicy mayo on a multigrain rice bed. I do wish that they diced the fish instead of slicing it into thin strips but it was still good regardless. The place had a lot of seating if you wanted to eat in and it was very clean. Right across from Starbucks, it's a great place to grab lunch mid study break in downtown Westfield. read more

I'm do not like soup, anyone who knows me can attest to that. With that in mind I was hesitant when my friends suggested this place, nevertheless I was curious to try Ramen after binge watching Naruto for the past couple of months. When we arrived I noticed the restaurant and bathroom was pretty clean. The Ramen seemed pretty expensive though at $12 a bowl. I bought the Miso Ramen as that sounds like a popular bowl. The food came out fairly quickly and wow did it look great, there was so much in it and it looked like what I saw in the anime haha. Once I took a bite I was not disappointed, the broth was SUPER savory! I instantly enjoyed it, along with the chunks of pork and egg. Although it's my first time having Ramen I definitely enjoyed it; my friends said it was a bit on the saltier side for them though. Nevertheless, I would definitely come back again. read more
