I loved the Ambiance of the dark area. The Service there was good but did need to keep checking up on customers a little more I had to wait 10 minutes to get someone to refill our drinks. The food, I'll have to base it on the chicken, since a lot of there were pork broth and I can't have Pork. The chicken was good and that spicy sauce was no joke. I'd love to come back and have that chicken and maybe one day when they have ramen broth that I can have.
I enjoyed the food it was cute , the service was nice , the food was good but not the best I had . It was pretty empty when we showed up .
Night Market Noodle has nice wooden interior with plenty of seatings for big and small groups. The menu has a mixture of Korean and Japanese food. My party had the Brussels sprouts, takoyaki, gyoza, and ika geso as appetizers. The appetizers were ok, except the ika geso. The flour coating on the ika geso was thick, and did not taste good. I had the Moto Tsukumen, which was a disappointment too. The dipping broth was very thick, which had the texture of gravy instead and the flavor was one-note too. The ajitamago was not marinated well, and wasn't cooked well too. I received good service during my visit.
Great spot for multiple noodle options. I ordered the Burnt Garlic Tonkotsu as a set, with the Mini Yangnyum Nuggets as an appetizer--all for $13.75 before tax. I was pleasantly surprised by the broth; it wasn't overly salty, which was my initial concern. The portion was generous and quite filling. The Mini Yangnyum Nuggets, however, were a bit too spicy for my taste--definitely something for those who enjoy a kick. I couldn't finish them, so keep the heat level in mind when ordering. I also tried a side of karaage, which was excellent--crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I'm not a big fan of mayo-based sauces, but if you are, it might be a nice pairing. Overall, the meal wasn't mind-blowing, but it was solid and satisfying. The service was friendly, and I'm definitely interested in coming back to try some of their other noodle options.
Bad like smell when you come thru the front doors but goes away once you keep walking. I enjoyer everything we ordered here. Lots of flavor, everything came out exactly as I wanted. If they can get rid of the weird smell that would be good. Other than that I'd def come back for food. Service was adequate, I was out of water for a while and very parched.
Came for lunch and the noodle set (noodles plus mini appetizer) was very affordable at $15.50. They weren't lying when they said mini (about 5-6 nuggets in the karaage). It was fried to perfection and the dipping sauce was great. The noodles were good and the chashu pieces were big, but the tonkatsu broth was too salty (didn't drink it). Would come back!
We had the ramen and karaage. Both were very yummy! Great service! They were attentive and the place was pretty.
The last time I came to this spot it was still the Thai Night Market. The furniture and decor is largely the same, wooden and minimalistic, and trendy. If you have a larger party, you may have to split because tables are on the smaller side. The food came out pretty quickly and service was friendly. Restrooms were clean. The noodle set is priced at $13.75, where you get to select a ramen, as well as an appetizer. Given ramen prices these days, this is pretty good value. We came in early for dinner and there was plenty of seating. However, it did start to get busier as the night progressed. If I am in the Chinatown area and craving ramen, this is definitely a go-to option.
Some parking in a shared plaza. This parking lot can be quite busy some times, depending on the day and time. Interior is very laid back, like you found this restaurant in an alley or a Japanese street. Very cool. Ambiance gets 5/5 and for being cleaned as it can be at the time of dinner I went. This restaurant be get packed but food comes out pretty quickly. Servers are friendly and they're always exercising their memory muscle of their brain - how in the world do you memorize everyone's order, especially with a big group!? Karaage - plain and could have been fried just a tad longer or on higher heat. 1/5 Tantanmen - spicy but like a creamy spicy so it doesn't hit you as hard. I wouldn't call it "numbing spicy." For someone who can take heat, I enjoyed it. Thick noodles is a good choice for this ramen. Adding cilantro was out of the blue but I enjoyed it. Boiled egg was cooked perfectly for ramen - slight hard but slightly runny. I highly suggest this to anyone who actually enjoy spicy noodles. 4/5 Shoyu Ramen - my personal favorite with fish broth. I liked the medium ramen for this. Everything cooked perfectly and not crazy amount of sodium. The only downside was the chashu. It wasn't cooked quite how I liked it and didn't have that "melt in your mouth" texture. 4/5 Overall, I would come back and recommend this ramen restaurant to friends. It's definitely made it to the top 5 for ramen in Houston. Broths and noodles are made correctly. Just come by! Something to note, I believe a table can hold a max of a party of 6. If you're a bigger party, perhaps give them a call first or y'all going to be scattered.
Solid food here! The wood benches and stall vibes definitely gave night market. I got the shoyu ramen with the chicken appetizer. The shoyu ramen had great flavor and the broth was well made. The noodles also had good chewiness. I wish there was more fish cake though. The chicken I got was the yangnyum nuggets which was too spicy to taste the flavor.
Yummy yummy! Best ramen ever!!! If you've not tried this restaurant drop what you're doing and go!!! Tried burnt garlic and spicy black garlic I think?? Waiter was very friendly and attentive...not used to that. See pics!
Amazing. This maybe our new favorite ramen spot and we drove over an hour to try them out. The interior is really unique with cute intimate booths. I ordered the Tan Tan Men ramen (perfectly spicy) and my husband or the Coco Curry. Both are amazing. We also ordered 2 appetizers: YANGNYUM NUGGETS, and Aji fry. Both were delicious. The service was amazing. Our waitress offered some recommendations since this was our first time. Great spot. Must try.
A great ramen place but not the best. I ordered the spicy Sapporo miso ramen which is a new item they introduced two weeks ago. It was definite thick and good but lacked a bit of the rich flavor that typically ramen soup should have. For my spicy food lovers, this is not spicy. The kaarage chicken was good but the rice was too dry. The decor is spot on as if you were walking into a night market style restaurant. The waiters were also very nice and accommodating.

Went for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The restaurant is small and not too busy. They only had one server for lunch. Opted to get their lunch special, which comes with an entree and a mini appetizer. Got the jajangmyeon and burnt garlic ramen. The burnt garlic ramen was great, with a rich broth and plenty of toppings. The jajangmyeon was rich and had a good portion of meat and veggies. The Tori Paitan and Karaage were a little dry but the egg salad sauce worked well and the spicy mayo helped balance it. The potato korokke was tasty as well, with a nice crispy coating, but a tad plain. Overall, a great deal for all the food! Will definitely have to try some of their other options next time! read more
I have not been to Night Market since they converted from Thai food to Noodles. The interior has a modern, clean vibe and the service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. We ordered two noodle sets that came with appetizers and started with the mini karaage and mini tori nanban. Both were delicious. For the noodle bowls, we tried the burnt garlic tonkatsu and the jajang myeon. While both were decent, they were a little underwhelming and lacked the bold flavors we were hoping for. I'm not sure I would come back here since there are so many other great ramen and Korean restaurants in town. read more
I've been wanting to come for a while and I'm so glad I did. I think this is probably one of the best ramen spots in Houston. I had the roti that came out fresh and paired well with the curry. The burnt garlic tonkotsu was very delicious. It had that depth of flavor with the broth and the burnt garlic added a nice layer. Char siu was made well and noodles were chewy! Decor was fantastic and I had such a great time with friends there. Parking might get crowded during weekend and peak hours! read more

Thought of my japan trip and was craving mazesoba. I tried looking up places but remembered i saw a foodie on instagram come here and mentioned it had mazesoba. Looking at the menus photos posted online i didn't see it but still took the risk to get it and luckily they were still serving it. It's in a plaza with other well known establishments so I would guess it would be difficult to find parking on a busy night! but there is still a good amount - maybe just a walk. Pretty empty for a sunday lunch but there were still people coming and going. the interior was nice imo. mazesoba - overall it satisfied my craving that i basically inhaled it. the umami of the rich sauce was amazing. i like to add vinegar and chili oil to mazesoba to turn it up a notch as well. the pork was not super tender but i'm just a harsh on all pork belly's. it wasn't tough by any means. one weird thing was the seaweed was tough...like there was a BITE to some of the pieces. one where i couldn't even bite through to consume. i don't know if any other place serves mazesoba but if not i will be a regular here now. 8.9/10 read more

We were dying for some noodles so we headed to try night market for the first time! They have a pretty good selection of different noodle dishes- ramen but also things like jjampong and jjangmyeon, plus a snacks menu. The first thing that jumped out to me was how appropriate the prices were. Ramen has gotten out of control lately with most places charging $20 a bowl and those rang from $13-15 and the added sides $1-3. The snack portions are all about 4-8 dollars and well and meant for one or two. We ordered a cold sake and two beer, one of the chicken nuggets apps (it has the egg tartar sauce) and the fried wontons. The fried wontons were thick little balls of pork and shrimp served with mayo- they didn't have much flavor and a good dipping sauce would have elevated them instead of the unseasoned mayo. The chicken nuggets were good- the egg tartar sauce was good and the chicken dressed in sauce and it had a little slaw on the side. For dinner I got the noodle set- you choose a ramen dish, I did the burnt garlic, and it comes with a mini appetizer so I did the sweet and spicy chicken. What an amazing deal for $14! The sweet and spicy chicken was my favorite of the three apps. My ramen was good but I really wish the garlic was stronger and that they seasoned their eggs- like the Aiyana was soy braised because the plain egg had no flavor. My fried did the spicy ramen and while the broth was absolutely delicious, the spicy level could be amped. But I swear they give you two pounds of noodles so it's filling and we left very satisfied! Will absolutely come back again! read more
I wanted to try something new along this strip and ended up here at Night Market Noodle. We started with the Ika Geso. It was nice and crispy, but the octopus was a bit tough, which was a a bit letdown. For the main dishes, we went for the seafood jajangmyeon and demon noodles, and both were fantastic. The jajangmyeon had a great flavor--it's the first time I've enjoyed black bean noodles. The demon noodles had a Sichuan twist on classic ramen that I loved. Night Market Noodle has some great fusion noodle options, and I'm really glad we stopped by to try it out. The vibe is cool, quiet, and a bit dim, which makes it perfect for a relaxed meal. Service was also quick and easy. Overall, I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars! read more

Firstly, I will say I'm not the biggest ramen fan, but I think this is pretty solid. I don't think it's like anymore special than most other ramen I've had. It's a good place safe place to go. I think it's pretty consistent every time I come. They also have good sides and appetizers to choose from. The ramen portions were a good size and I was definitely full. I liked the burnt garlic and I felt like you could definitely taste it. It's a kind of small, casual place with a cozy and dim atmosphere. It's a good place to come catch up with friends or get a quick dinner. The food came out at a good pace and our server was really nice. There is only one server on the floor though, but they are pretty attentive regardless. I've never really had a wait coming here either and I don't think parking is too bad unless you come later or on the weekends. read more

My dad wanted to try this noodle restaurant in Houston Chinatown. The area it's in can be hard to find parking sometimes at night when it's crowded but we went during the middle of the day and there was plenty of parking available. I love how the interior is decorated, it makes me feel like I'm at a night out in Asia. We ordered the jajangmyeon, jjambbong, burnt garlic tonkotsu, coco curry-men, spicy black ramen, and the Yangnyum nuggets, chicken karaage nuggets, and Tori nanban as appetizers. I had the burnt garlic tonkotsu. I love it when I have garlic ramen because their broth usually feels layered with the garlic oil. The broth was pretty rich and I love garlic flavor. I touched it up with some of the chili bomb and it was perfect. I tried some of the jajangmyeon and jjambbong. The noodles for the jjangmyeon were springy and black bean flavor was good. The jjambbong has a ton of seafood and has a mildly spicy soup base. I didn't try the spicy black ramen or the coco curry-men but my family members ate it up. I loved their chicken karaage appetizers as well. The chicken karaage is solid, and the Yangnyum nuggets were actually really spicy. My favorite of the bunch was the Tori nanban, that egg tartar sauce really elevates the flavor of the karaage. read more
we decided to check out this ramen place because of many many good reviews very spacious and clean restaurant we all ordered the burnt garlic tonkotsu and a shared portion takoyaki (4 pcs) the broth was very light and flavorful (other places might use lots of sodium but not night market noodles) soft boiled egg was cooked perfectly! friendly and helpful staff super fast service for a saturday nite :) read more

Spicy Mazesoba: 6/10 Seafood jajiangmen: 7.5/10 Coco-curry men: 7/10 Spicy tantan tseukeman: 6/10 I'm not really a fan of ramen but my family decided to come after finding out they had Mazesoba since there's not much places in Houston that has it. The spicy Mazesoba was really rich and had a strong dashi flavor. It was also really spicy so after a few bites it became hard to eat. Seafood jajiangmen had a good wok flavor but was slightly watery. Coco-curry men reminded me of laksa and was good but nothing special. Spicy tantan was similar to the Mazesoba in being too spicy and hard to eat after a few bites. The broth was also room temperature and I wished it was hotter. Overall, I wouldn't come back. read more

Underrated spot for stellar ramen and sides! One of our top 3 ramen spots that you should check out if you're into great ramen that is matched by excellent and shareable sides at an affordable price. Vibe: Casual wooden izakaya vibe inside, very clean. We came in at around 2pm and there were not many people. Decent size, tables are long and can probably seat medium-sized parties together (6?). Service: very friendly server. She gave great recommendations for our appetizers. Food: Ordered a great deal of ramen + mini appetizer for $13.75. We tried the regular tonkotsu ramen, burnt garlic tonkotsu ramen, chicken gyoza, and Korean yangyum nuggets. Chicken gyoza was just OK. The Korean nuggets were incredibly flavorful and juicy with a tangy sweet/spicy sauce and crunchy coating. Very spicy! The quality of all the ramen ingredients really impressed us. The tonkotsu broth had great savory depth and creamy texture without feeling too heavy or porky/grimy. Flavor was straightforward and clean but subtly complex - reminded me of Ichiran ramen in NYC. The straight noodles were perfectly cooked, al dente and chewy. Burnt garlic oil added some extra savory and aromatic depth. Chashu was great, cut pretty thick, with a hint of smokiness. Still had some chew to it. Woodear mushroom really stood out to me as incredibly fresh with a refreshing, thick, and soft texture that surpasses any other place I've had them. Egg was solid, no marinade or anything, but cooked perfectly and they give you an entire egg (not just a half). 100% recommend these ramen, though we would like to add the spicy paste next time to see if we can get even more layers of complexity and flavor. If you're on the hunt for one of the best ramens in Houston, we definitely recommend coming here! This place is Let's Eat Houston approved read more
Some great finds here! We tried a few things to sample the menu and I will return for my faves. Ebi Chahan (5+/5): Wow this was surprisingly good. So fragrant and tasty! It was topped with an onsen tomago that should be immediately cut into and mixed with the hot rice so it continues to cook! The portion is definitely enough for a meal. Don't be fooled by the unassuming picture in the menu! One of the best fried rice I've had around town. Tori Nanban (5/5): traditional Asian chicken nugget breading and seasoning topped with a yummy egg tartar. Juicy, tender, and definitely recommend! Curry tonkotsu (3/5): love that the ramen came out piping hot but there's not a lot of "meat" in this bowl. It's just a large spoonful of ground beef. The aji-tamago was cooked beautifully! Fair warning this dish has some heat/spice. I did ask for the chili oil on the side and still felt like it was at the peak of my spice threshold. The flavor of the broth was good, but I couldn't finish the dish due to spice level. I'm sure it'd be more enjoyable to those with a higher tolerance. Coco-curry men (4/5): coconut curry base - if you like coconut curries, this is it for you! Very fragrant, less spicy, and loaded with protein and other! This seems more filling than the curry tonkotsu. I really wanted to try the artichoke tea, but at 7-7:30 pm, they were out! Maybe next time... Lots of seating in here and service was attentive as we were the only table. read more
May have found my new fav ramen spot. Came here on a weekday lunch and it wasn't packed. I got takoyaki which was standard and the spicy black ramen which was very flavorful. You get a good chunk of chasu pork (that were not too fatty) and the egg is also perfectly cooked. Many noodle options here so would def come back. read more

Stop by with some friends for a quick bite after work. The restaurant is located in a strip center with plenty of other restaurants. Parking was pretty easy around the time that we went, but it does get busier during the evening. our waiter was very kind and attentive to our needs. They did it expressed that they renew on the job, but they did an awesome job to me. Our table tried a few different appetizers and entrées. Everything was really great! I don't really have too many notes, so let's get to the important part,THE FOOD! Kimchi - 4/5 Free cabbage - 5/5 - sweet, touch of vinegar, nice crunch Edamame - 4/5 - warm and salted Takoyaki - 3/5 - this is a harder one to grade as I didn't really dislike it, but I just don't think it's for me. I wish the inside was a bit more firm. Demon Ramen 5/5 - you can smell the spice! Nice and filling with the perfect kick! Shoyu Ramen - 4/5 HAKATA CHASHU DON - 5/5 - loved the poach egg! The pork was super tender. I ate it with some of the chili powder, ginger, free, cabbage, and even a little bit of kimchi. Delicious and very filling! Sidenote, the bathroom was nice and clean and their water was excellent. I know it's weird to comment about water, but water does have different taste. Along with my little slice of lemon it was a perfect refreshing beverage. Oh, and another random note, they split all of our appetizers between our party! That was so awesome to me. You typically can't split appetizers, or even have to ask the waiter to do so, but ours did it without us asking. Extra points for that! Anyway, go ahead and stop by the next time we're close. I will definitely be back and you give them a try! read more

Spicy black and demon bowl. I have been coming to night market noodle for years and they are one of my favorite places to go to for ramen. Both bowls are so rich and flavorful. Service was quick and kind. Lots of seating. 10/10 read more

This might be one of the best ramen spots I've been too. The ramen was so flavorful. I just had it and I want it again! The server was super nice and attentive, but it did t take a little long to get our ramen. But honestly, it was worth the wait. They have a parking lot in the parking center, but it does get crowded. read more
First time trying this place I think it replaced another noodle spot on the strip. The black garlic ramen was interesting. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it and I love garlic. Something about the oil that was added may have been too strong for me. But I still did enjoy my ramen. My girlfriend black bean noodles on the other hand were delicious! The springy noodles were perfectly cooked and bouncy! The sauce was perfect not too sweet or salty and the meat was flavorful! The friend chicken was a nice side with the lunch set but I could've done without it. read more
I think this place has changed concepts a few times - it used to be a Thai market but is now a noodle night market. Not sure it's the same owner or not, but we came by to check it out. We came on a Friday evening and there was only one table seated. Our waiter immediately greeted and seated us with the menu. We ordered the pan fried pork gyoza as an appetizer. It came with 6 gyoza and a spicy dipping sauce. The gyoza themselves were pan fried to perfection. The pork inside was super flavorful and sauce wasn't even needed. Would recommend this. I ordered the curry Tonkatsu as my entree. I really wanted to like this but it was kind of underwhelming. It didn't really have that depth that ramen generally has, nor the richness. The flavor was just okay, nothing special, and it needed a bit more meat. The egg was over cooked a tiny bit but still tasted great. The noodles had a nice chew. With its wooden bench seats and structure, the ambiance is very similar to Ishin Udon a few doors down. The restaurant is clean and the waiter was super attentive and nice. I think this is a good place to try but maybe try the tonkatsu or black garlic Tonkatsu instead of the curry! read more

Food: The food itself was decent, particularly the ramen. However, the portion sizes left us with leftovers, and we were surprised to find that the restaurant only offers small containers that couldn't fit all our food. When we asked for larger bowls, we were told they didn't have any, even though we saw larger bowls being used for takeout orders. Service: The service was absolutely horrific. Our server was rude, had a bad attitude, and was extremely unhelpful. When we asked for menu recommendations, she snapped at us and made no effort to guide us. She was also not attentive at all, and we had to call her over multiple times. The dismissive and unprofessional service really spoiled what could have been a decent meal. Ambiance: The atmosphere of the restaurant didn't do much to make up for the poor service. While it was fairly standard, nothing about the environment stood out to elevate the experience or balance out the negative aspects of the service. Unfortunately, despite the food being decent, the service was so poor that we won't be returning or recommending this place. The picture is reference of a big bowl on another table. read more

I was a bit disappointed with this place after hearing all the hype about their noodles. The Tsukemen was hard to finish. Noodles were cold, pork belly was underwhelming, and the dipping broth was lukewarm. I was expecting a rich, savory, and spicy broth but it tasted bland and mostly peanut-y. My friend ordered a shoyu ramen which I got to try and it tasted nothing like what you would expect shoyu to taste like. I think I would rather eat instant shoyu ramen... She was unable to finish her ramen despite being hungry... which is unfortunate to say. The service was good though and I appreciate the cool interior design of the place. Hope they can improve their broths. read more
Dined at Night Market noodle around 7:30pm on a Sunday evening. The restaurant wasn't as packed so we were seated right away. The interior is nice, all booth style. I tried the Spicy Black Ramen, Fried Rice and Pork Gyoza. My friend had the Tan Tan Men. The pork gyoza was good, your standard gyoza...I just wish there was a better dipping sauce for it. Fried rice was OMG sooo good! It was very fresh, you can tell the it was freshly prepared. I really wanted to like the spicy black ramen, but there was something about the broth that was very salty. However, beyond the salt you can tell the flavors are there. My friend enjoyed her Tan Tan Men Ramen, you can also get the numbing oil on the side. read more

Found good rating of this resto, gave a try, was good as they said. I'm not a ramen person either but it was very good experience. 1) Ambiance, 2) Music and 3) taste. I feel the owner of this place is the same as Mein and Dipping Tiger, as they applied the same principle. Good resto. business owner. As for the price, it's a bit higher than in Viet town but that's ok so long the food and everything is good!!!! read more
This spot was recently reopened with an entirely different menu, it used to be a Thai cuisine & now it's more focused on noodles. It's like a mixture of Korean/Japanese/Chinese, so you get a decent amount of varieties to pick from. You order at the counter & the runners bring your food. Here's what I got. *Thai tea- exceptional, good amount of sweetness & didn't taste powdery. *Pan fried gyoza- it was decent, nothing special. The filling could've been more moist. The sauce was a bit too vinegary for me. *Curry Tonkotsu- it was absolutely delicious. The broth was rich, creamy & had the perfect amount of thickness to it. Good amount of curry flavor & heat. If you're not use to spicy I suggest requesting for them to tone it down, but for me it was perfect. The noodles could've been more firm. The egg was slightly overcooked & it needed more seasoning. Overall good food & the service was quick & friendly. The decor was nice & the place itself was very clean. This is a very good local spot in the Chinatown area & I'm looking forward to coming back. read more
Tried this place on a whim few weeks back, but forgot to write a review. I heard about it through Yelp and wanted to try something new. Everything we tried was solid, and for the most part I enjoyed it. Missed out on this promotion that other people talked about as I didn't have the coupon, but they handed it to me after we ordered if I wanted to come back in the next few days. Five star service would have been to just give me the discount. read more
