    Yakitori Grilled chicken
    Angela D.

    Was in the area and decided to try the Minano Ramen. The restaurant decor is very fun Asian themed, the staff is friendly and attentive. loved that the menu had pictures of the food and a good selection of Ramen dishes, as well as appetizers. We had the Yakitori Grilled chicken breast which was delicious very well seasoned however grilled squid appetizer was extremely chewy. The Tonkotsu Ramen was good but a bit pricey

    We were celebrating a birthday with 7 of us.... We all had a great time and everyone enjoyed the food. The gyosa appetizers were a favorite. Dessert was a surprise too. Service was absolutely outstanding. The decor and vibe were great too. We'll def be back to this place. Yum

    Seafood Ramen

    Had the seafood Ramen this time with the wheat noodles. Love the bite on the wheat noodles the seafood while frozen had a nice flavor. Seems like whenever I'm in this area I have to stop here.

    Love the place with their brightly colored décor and energetic anime music. Service was very helpful with explanations and recommendations. We like Ramen but still don't know very much about it so the help was appreciated. Once we finally decided it didn't take long at all for the bowls to arrive. I had read in another review if I wanted Tonkotsu to get the spicy one, so I did. It was richly delicious and I still find Ramen fun to eat with chopsticks and the big spoon. There was some spiciness added to the broth which just made it better. The pork chashu was very tender, which made it easy to eat. We all enjoyed our food.

    Good ramen for Westchase but Tonkatsu soup can use more depth of flavor. We were in the area and stopped by after reading some reviews. If you're looking for a ramen, this place fits the bill. Wonderful decor and pleasant service. I just hope to get a soup that wows but was missing a best or two. The Minano ramen had both chicken and pork...stick with the regular Tonkatsu or spicy since the chicken was mid. Not much flavor. I do prefer Sun Ramen noodles with a chew. These were verging a bit more like Chinese egg / ramen noodles. I can see how people roiled like to come and hang out for the experience. Bathroom lights were a bit dim and paper towels needed refilling for both genders...these things count. YMMV. Enjoy

    This place is super cute! My partner was feeling under the weather and wanted soup for lunch. We found Minano on yelp and here we are. Inside is decorated and is very cozy! Came on Friday around noon and we were the only people inside. Takoyaki: 4/5 Thank goodness for a good Takoyaki place. Delicious and fresh. Only reason for the 4 was that they're a little small, but overall great. Shouyu ramen: 3.5/5 The broth itself wasn't extremely flavorful, but with some chili fakes the flavor skyrocketed. The chashu was yummy, but a little tough and the noodles weren't entirely my favorite. With that being said, the whole bowl was tied together perfectly. The nori and fish cakes complimented all the flavors and it was a delicious bowl of ramen! Minano Ramen: 4.5/5 Chashu was a bit tough, but the flavor and overall bowl of ramen was amazing. It's a good serving size and is very presentable. Overall I had a great time here. Our server was kind and the food came out quickly. The menu is large, so I'll definitely be back to try out more items.

    Very nice cozy place in Westchase. We came here for late Sunday lunch. Service was super friendly and attentive. We got edamame, vegetable ramen and seafood ramen. All food was pretty good, fresh and tasty. They had pretty decent pricing as well and they have some nice deals for lunch during the week. Ambience is pretty cozy.

    Was looking for a spot to grab dinner solo on a cold night and passed Minano Ramen. It had a charming look and I wanted to check it out! It turns out I made a great decision. I immediately loved the decor inside, it was an explosion of lanterns, colors, and tapestries. It was pretty busy inside but not too loud. My server, Dustin, came over soon and I ordered the Tonkotsu ramen. Legitimately in less than 5 minutes he came back with my bowl! I was amazed at the speed of service. Dustin also helped me decide which boba to get and I went with the Minano tea (just a classic milk tea with boba). The ramen was just classic and the tea was great as well. Overall, this was a solid ramen spot and had great service. I don't live anywhere near here but hope to come back someday!

    Date night approved! Dined here on a Saturday night during a short weekend trip and my husband and I had a GREAT time. Our waiter, Toby, was full of energy, extremely friendly and made some great recommendations. I ordered the vegetable ramen and added shrimp-- unfortunately you pay $5 for two very small pieces of shrimp (Toby warned me! lol) also had the squid as an appetizer; for as long as it takes to prepare, it did come out colder than I expected. My favorite part was the ambiance! They did a real good job at making you feel like you're in a ramen restaurant in Japan not of an anime.

    The service was excellent, the ambiance/ music was great. We did the deal where you split an appetizer and dessert, 2 boba teas and 2 ramens for $60/$65 which we thought was a good deal. The food came out quickly and everything tasted great and was perfect temperature. At the end of the meal if you spend $35 you can spin the wheel for a prize we got $5 off our next order. We will definitely be back.

    The food was good. The interior of the space is well decorated and the staff was super nice. We ordered ramen. They have this cool thing where if you spend over ($30 or $35, I don't remember), you spin the wheel and you get whatever discount or free item for the next time you dine in. I'd definitely come back, only because my free item is the free gyoza app

    Yakitori: Shiitake, Pork Belly, and Chicken Breast
    Megan M.

    Went here for happy hour and and were very impressed with both the food, ambiance, and service. We got a number of Yakitori: Chicken, pork belly, and shiitake mushroom, all were delicious. Takoyaki were very authentic and similar to what we ate in Japan. Finally, we shared a bowl of Black Tonkatsu that was to die for. They offer a 2 for $60 dinner deal 2 bobas, an app, 2 ramens, and a dessert that we will definitely be back for!

    This place was AMAZING! When you walk in, it literally transports you to Japan. It's such a cool ambiance! The food? BEST RAMEN I'VE EVER HAD! I went with the black tonkotsu and it was DELICIOUS. I ate all of it lol! The food also came out super fast and the waiter was kind! 10/10 would eat here again!

We went around 12pm on a Tuesday and it was perfect, not too busy inside and not too hot outside so we were able to enjoy the scenery. As for food, we got the 4 pack empanadas from Empamama with two Mother Clucker empanadas and two Fresh Prince ones. We paired the empanadas with the bang bang sauce and it definitely added to the flavor, especially the Mother Clucker. The mother Clucker was an 8/10 for me while the fresh prince was a 7/10. The restaurant also offers a margarita slushy and an apple cider slushy which we had samples of and that was good. We ended up getting lemonade and strawberry lemonade from a different restaurant though because we were just feeling that instead. Overall, I spent about $30 here ($22 for food and $8 for drinks). I really emphasize that this is a casual spot and I would come here for a quick mid-day snack rather than for an entire meal. I was definitely still hungry after but the food was enough to hold me over for a couple hours.

The Ramen is okay, but it just doesn't hit like before. The restaurant was a laid back vide with Japanese inspired themes and music in the background. Our server points us to our table and hands us menus to start. We always start out with an edamame appetizer and then go ahead and order the ramen. My partner got the spicy tonkatsu and I had wanted to do the "make your own ramen" option. I really wanted wagyu but didn't like the toppings it came with. So I just made my own, though it was very costly to add more toppings, so I just chose 2. Overall, the experience was okay. It's not the worse ramen place I've been to but I'll probably only swing my when it's out of convenience

The tuna tartare was super tasty as well and I would definitely order this again same comment for micro greens on this dish - didn't need this and found myself moving it off the dishes to actually enjoy the item. The two not so favorite dishes for me were the fried rice topped with fried chicken. While chicken was very tasty the rice was extremely basic. Could have used eggs or other ingredients to elevate this dish. Also the Volcano roll was extremely disappointing. Normally the volcano topping is cooked or (torched) and this topping was cold and very unappetizing. Would not recommend this roll. Overall this place is a hit or miss. Service for our large party wasn't bad and everything came out pretty quickly!
