Great new restaurant replace some old restaurant at this location and extend the better Asian food. J is a good Asian fusion restaurant serve a lot of different type of noodles dishes. We start with Takoyaki balls. It comes with six ball with minimum two pieces of octopus in it. It was delicious due the coating. My wife has the seafood tempura udon. The soup base is good. The noodle comes with some fried shrimp and fish fillets. I also recommend this dish. The garlic tonkotsu ramen also good. It is a thick base bone soup. It has charshu, seaweed, bamboo shoots, corn, porch egg and fish cake. I like garlic base with fragrant smells. Since they just open for business, we got complimentary dessert and tea. Service is good. read more

Cute new business in Seminole Heights that took over the old delicious ramen place. Setup is exactly the same; bar area on right, and dining area on left. The parking lot is small - I recommend backing in so you can get out easier. I love that they have a touch screen right near the front so you can place a to-go order, which is exactly what I did. Food was ready quickly - I'm thankful that they asked if I needed the hot sauce, because it turns out I definitely did. I started with the Shrimp Tempura, which was excellent. Very crispy and not greasy. The only thing I didn't love was the white dipping sauce it came with. The menu says it is served with J's homemade soy sauce, but that's definitely not what I received. For my entree I tried the Beef Bibimbap. It was good in flavor after I spiced it up a bit, but I wouldn't get it again. Not enough beef, too much rice. After reading other reviews, I think I'll try the ramen or udon next - that looks to be the sweet spot. read more

Decided to give J's a try tonight. It was our first time. This building used to house Ichicoro Ramen, so it was nice to see another business fill those shoes and not just another empty building. The entrance is either in the front or the side- a little confusing as there is a sign pointing to the side entrance- but you can use either. It's still a bit tight inside so don't be surprised if when you arrive on a weekend night there may be no place to sit! We were seated promptly and ordered apps. Our sever was lovely from the start- we ordered edamame and fried spring rolls. Edamame was good- can't do much to mess that up- the spring rolls were "meh", I don't believe they are made in house- likely frozen as the insides are a bit mushy. My guess they are vegetable spring rolls. Served with a thin dollop of sweet chili sauce. Won't order those again. Entree's followed. The restaurant was busy and the wait was a bit long. So much so that another server came over and asked if we were waiting for our check- "no ma'am, we are waiting for our food". My husband ordered the Creamy Mushroom Ramen- spicy. I ordered the Pad Thai- medium heat. The ramen arrived - quite a serving I might add and because I DO NOT DO MUSHROOM ANYTHING- I didn't try it, but my husband loved it. He ate just about every bite. He was sold on the Ramen. The Pad Thai was "ok", nothing to write home about. A bit "too wet" and not a note of spice anywhere to be found. I also don't like thigh chicken meat- personal preference- and that's the chicken that accompanies the dish. I also ordered shrimp too- there were probably 5 medium to small sized shrimp. I ate it- I was hungry- but wouldn't order it again. I am a huge fan of Lemon Grass on Kennedy and will stick with them for Thai Food. We will be back so that I can try the Ramen- not mushroom mind you- but another flavor- they have several. They don't have their liquor license yet- hopefully coming soon. Our server was really great- sweet and kind and apologetic that the food was a little late. Give it a try- everyone has different tastes! read more

J's Asian Kitchen - Menu - Ramen Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Have been hearing good things about the new location so I gave it a try tonight. Looks nice inside but I ordered Togo. I ordered and appetizer and two entrees with added items. I'm glad I did because the portions compared to the price was not good. The flavors were tasty but when you order red curry with beef and added veggies and literally have to look for both it's disappointing. I hope this improves because I love this kind of food. I want good restaurants to succeed. Best of luck. read more

This new Asian restaurant in Seminole Heights offers delicious pan Asian food. I read the two pages menu, it covered Japanese food, Korean food, Thai, Vietnamese and most of the popular Asian appetizers. They also offer variety of can and bottle drinks. I finally decided to get a seafood tempura udon soup. It came fast and so beautifully presented. In the bowl, there were three big tempura shrimps, two pieces of fish tempura, freshly homemade, good flavor and texture. Bamboo shoots, onion and cabbage were the vegetables, and the broth was dry tuna bonito flavor, such a delicious ensemble! We had takoyaki balls as appetizer. The balls were big. The coating was crunchy; the inside was soft and creamy, quite nice. The owner chatted with us. He was so polite and friendly. I also like their attention to details -from the interior decoration to the dinner ware, to the services, were all almost perfect. This new business tried hard to please the customers. They didn't fail. We had a very pleasant experience here. I can't wait to come back and try other dishes. read more

We just had dinner at this new little spot, and I'm so glad we did. What a relaxing experience. The waiter was absolutely wonderful. The attention to detail that people have mentioned in the previous reviews is exactly what we got. Carefully placed eating utensils, nicely plated comfort foods, home-style flavors, and superior service. We ordered the oyster tempura and spicy beef gyozas to start. Perfectly fried, each with their own sauces. Then my hubs ordered the Yaki Udon with beef which was served with perfectly stir fried noodles, and a wonderful brown sauce. I ordered the Shoyu Ramen with Chaysu. Simple, no frills (or grease), just a bowl of clean comfort with some smokey pork. And their prices are more than reasonable by today's standards, which is very nice. This place is exactly what you want it to be. Good food in a cute, clean, and friendly environment. We are so happy to have this lovely new spot in the neighborhood. We'll be back again and again. read more

The food was excellent and do was the price point. my husband had the mushroom ramen with chicken. The broth was delicious and it was loaded with a variety of mushrooms, egg and veggies. I had the chicken bibimbap, and the owner/chef brought it out to me with his special sauce for the dish. The ambiance was super cute if you ate a Korean drama fan- paper lanterns and Korean pop music contribute to an authentic vibe. The food was fresh and healthy, and I will definitely be back. They do not have their liquor license yet- but they have a variety of other beverages. My husband and i shared a pot of jasmine tea. the waitress brought a small ice cream filled puff pastry with the check. It was the perfect end to a hearty meal. I ended up taking half of mine home because it was a large portion. The bibimbap was a good dish to get for kids because it wasn't spicy. It had sweet chicken thighs, rice, shredded carrots, lettuce, cabbage and a fried egg on top- easy to split for younger kids. We are definitely going back. read more
