I had an awesome experience here recently and am so I glad I finally checked them out. This location has a parking lot which was convenient. My husband and I arrived around 8pm on a Saturday and didn't have to wait long to be seated. We were greeted upon entering and the service was great. The space wasn't huge but there was a bar area and booth/table and chair seating options. Emi was our waiter and was super friendly. I ordered a hot green tea and the signature ramen dish. My husband ordered the signature ramen dish too and added spicy oil but he didnt think it was that spicy. We also shared the fried chicken appetizer. Everything was delicious, the broth was so buttery and savory. I loved everything about it. I can't wait to come back.

The store is never very busy, which makes me concerned they might not be popular. Today, Quynh was my server, she's very good; accommodating, attentive, welcoming with a terrific smile.

I ordered hot sake and it did not disappoint. My daughter got a Ramune, miso soup, and shrimp tempura roll. No complaints! Miso soup was missing tofu that day. Apparently they were all out. Nevertheless the soup was very nice! I got two specialty rolls. The names escape me at the moment. The menu doesn't have a huge selection of rolls but I found what I like and both were VERY good! Good amount of fish vs rice. Everyone is very attentive. Service is very good. The ambiance is interesting :) nothing fancy but not too bland either. There are full moon/moon related decorations. The rolls are also named with the Moon theme in mind. Overall very nice and we will be back to try their ramen !

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 atmosphere is super classy and cute, with great date-night vibes. Parking can be a little limited with the English pub next door, but it's definitely worth a stop. We started with a few of their buns. The pork belly was my favorite, but the fried chicken and meatball were both very good! For dinner, we ordered the fried rice, XO noodles, and shaking beef. The beef was a little more well done than I prefer, but everything was packed with flavor. Portions were generous, presentation was beautiful, and overall, the food was delicious. Most dishes averaged around $20, which felt very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. And a special shoutout to Keith - his service was fantastic throughout the entire meal! Great atmosphere, flavorful food, generous portions, and excellent service. We'll definitely be back!

Quite the opposite here, I have been a long time customer of this particular location and I've always had an amazing experience with the food as well as excellent service from the staff over the years. The chef and staff clearly care a great deal about the establishment and the love is shown all throughout the space. I usually have the Pork Tonkatsu ramen, Katsu sando, and Krazy Fries and everyday I'm away from Phoenix I CRAVE these so badly. Amazing and ambitious flavor combos that all fit so well together. Couldn't recommend this place harder

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!!

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.

We came in around 4 PM on a Sunday, got quickly seated, handed menus, water, etc. Food - overall very tasty. We were first served with warm up garlic bread, rolls, it was a pleasant surprise. The assorted tempura was light and crunchy. The gyoza had a crunchy outside, packed with flavor in the inside. The Hakata ramen is very flavorful (not to mention, very affordable these days). The tantanmen wasn't our favorite, I'll be honest. It kind of tasted more of a Sriracha flavor. Portions are pretty big, standard. Most places I can only eat half, and save the rest for lunch the next day. The desserts were delicious, I believe they were $4.95 each? The strawberry cake kind of reminded me of 85 bakery (if you're from California), but the flan was my favorite. The staff and other patrons have spoken in Japanese, it made me feel like I was in Japan again! Very memorable experience, will return again!

The food was actually very good, which makes the experience even more disappointing because the…read moreservice was absolutely horrible. We were a party of 12 visiting on vacation, and none of us are from the area. We ordered spam musubi and a chicken skewer as appetizers. Both appetizers arrived well after our entrees had already been served and we had essentially finished eating. Each time we asked about them, we were repeatedly told, "They're coming." Mind you, these are simple appetizers that should not take anywhere near that long to prepare. When we asked for the third time, we finally asked that the appetizers be cancelled since we had already finished our meal. At that point, the gentleman working the front area , tall, with red hair, loudly yelled from across the restaurant, in an extremely rude and confrontational tone, "It's already on the grill!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to paying customers that way. His response was unprofessional, unnecessary, and honestly created a very hostile and uncomfortable feeling during what should have been an enjoyable dinner, especially while our group was on vacation and simply trying to enjoy a meal together. When the appetizers eventually came out, we left them sitting there because we were already done eating and ended up taking them to go. He eventually told us they would be removed from the bill, which we appreciated, but that did not excuse the way the situation was handled. Again, the food was good, but good food does not make up for poor service and especially not for an employee speaking to customers in an aggressive and disrespectful manner. Management should seriously address how customers are treated, because the interaction with this particular employee overshadowed what could have otherwise been a good dining experience for our party of 12.

The highlights of my meal have to be the Yellowtail sashimi, Soft-Shell Crab roll, and the Oh My God roll. Those 3 dishes are absolutely must try's for anyone coming here. The flavors are balanced so well, each roll had it's own speciality charm to it like how the Soft-Shell Crab roll's crunch of the crab pairs perfectly with the soft seasoned rice and filled toppings inside it. Phenomenally fresh fish that just about anyone can enjoy whether they have a knack for spicy items like the Hot Havana or want a beautifully well rounded roll like the Oh My God roll that also comes with a little show from the server. The restaurant itself is a great night out sorta vibe whether you sit in or outdoors. Come by if you like great sushi!
