Beautiful inside and seating... was eerily quiet even though we were eating during lunch hours. The food was good... nothing amazing or interesting; but it tasted good. I'm not sure if I would drive back out to Deer Park to come again; but maybe if I was in the area

I have been craving ramen for weeks now and finally stopped by to get my fix! I'm still newish to the area so I took a chance and I do not regret it. The ramen was absolutely delicious! The spot is busy but the service is fast and the food came out quickly. The wait staff were amazing. The shrimp was nice and crispy even when briefly dipped in the ramen. 10/10 recommend. My wife had never had ramen before from a restaurant and now she's a believer! We will be back very soon!

Wow!! I came here upon recommendation from a friend and I loved it! We walked in to a calm and peaceful environment, with AWESOME lighting (if you want those cute aesthetic pics). We were seated and our waiter came within minutes, and had such a great personality! Don't even get me started on the food omg. I made my own ramen bowl with chicken broth, thin noodles, green onions, and more. My friend ordered some sushi plates (not really my thing), and she said they were a 10/10. Love love loveee this place.

The interior was very well-kept and clean. There weren't many people when I went during the night so the staff was very attentive and the food came out at a reasonable time. I got the Tonkatsu Shoyu Ramen and calamari as it was quite solid but nothing that will blow your mind. The food was your typical average-priced ramen.

Ramen (Noodles)

The food was delicious! Very welcoming and the vibe inside is amazing. Our server Kim was so kind! Going back for sure

Enjoyed myself well enough here. Drink options have improved, and so has the menus and it's options since my last visit. We had ramen of course and some appetizers. Sho Chiku Bai Sake. The karaage is probably my favorite, and the food is decent. Though the noodles seem slightly of an odd variety to me personally. Just off somehow. But still good. Service was friendly and attentive. I would go again.

I was so glad there was a new ramen place near by. Otsuka Ramen & Bar did NOT disappoint. The décor inside is just like a ramen pub you'd find in Japan. A trendy and cozy atmosphere. The staff are kind and hospitable. They refill your drinks and are attentive to your orders. Everything they cook is homemade, fresh and piping hot when it arrives at your table. Otsuka has a great variety of appetizers, ramen bowls and sushi platters. They don't have a lot of rice bowls to choose from, though. Otsuka Ramen & Bar has some tough competition with Mai Asian Box and Pho Central on the same street. I hope these guys stay in business, because I'd love to be a regular customer.

Ask the Community - Otsuka Ramen & Bar

Do they have vegan options?

Not really. You can order things without any meat or seafood, but it's usually limited to tempura and salad. Plus depending on how strictly vegan you are, the tempura items are fried in the same oil as meat items

Does anyone know if the noodles are rice or wheat noodles? The people who answer the phone have no idea, and I would love to try the place if they have rice noodles.

The noodles are made from flour.

Does this restaurant have vegetarian or vegan options?

Under the appetizers you'll find a section titled Vegetarian Lovers. Where we have our Salad and 21V the ramen Bowl, I always ask if the egg is wanted, vegans prefer no egg at most. There's a create your own ramen(25), which by default for… 

Do they have gluten free options?

Yes we do, You can do rice instead the noodles, and taste good too, many customers did try it. And we also start doing organic vegetables broth after 1/15/2018.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while, and I've driven by the food truck a few times…read moreduring its advertised "open" hours, but it was closed each time. It could have been due to the colder weather. However, we finally made it during a time when it was open. The food was quite good. I had the kimchi rice, and my husband ordered the bullhop beef. Next time, I'll definitely add a protein to the kimchi rice. Both dishes were very flavorful, with the rice mixed with kimchi cabbage. The beef dish included onions and broccoli, which were cooked to a nice consistency. We were greeted by a friendly staff member, and our food was prepared quickly; however, we were the only customers there, so I'm not sure if that's a fair gauge of the service..

I visited the korean festival in Discovery Green and saw this food truck with lively music and a…read morebunch of people waiting in line so we went to check it out! We tried the spicy rice cake and sausages on a stick (I believe it is called sotteok?) which was so delightful with the sauce being sweet but had a good kick to it. We also ordered one of the beef and kimchi bowls and that SAUCE was to die for. We devoured it all in minutes and it was one of my favorite rice bowls I have had! Definitely going to try and check out more dishes next time!

Truly some of the best tacos I have ever had. Didn't skimp out on the pastor meat, the tortillas…read morewere perfect texture of slightly crispy but not hard, the meat was seasoned beautifully, the cilantro/onions/lime were plentiful and fresh, the grilled onions were tasty and sweet, and the charro beans were fantastic. Not to mention, the salsas were incredible. Three different salsas, all with a little kick, but truly so delicious for very reasonable prices. The owner came out, greeted us, answered our questions about the menu, and the food came out very quickly. While this is more of a no-frills location with not much decoration, the food and value makes this easily a 5 star review for me. Can't recommend highly enough if you are looking for authentic Mexican food.

El Tostaco Regio is a hidden gem here in Pasadena. They had some of the best birria dishes I've…read moreever had! It's a small place, so it's not ideal for large gatherings and they're easy to miss. El Tostaco Regio does not serve typical Mexican cuisine. Their food is what you would find served on the streets of Mexico. So there's no refried beans, rice or a queso plate here. Most of their dishes comes with beans and a cup of broth. Their food is served fresh, but messy. Everything they make is packed with flavor, but not overpowered by spices. The tables have three complimentary sauces you can try with your dishes. If your other party is not in the mood for Mexican, El Tostaco Regio also have burgers and baked potatoes. Their menu is bilingual, thankfully. The staff are patient and kind. Prices are affordable. I will say that their AC system could've been better, considering we're in Summer now. They only have only bathroom. Aside from a TV playing Latino music, there's no decor inside at all. My major issue is that El Tostaco Regio is NOT wheelchair accessible. That's completely unacceptable!
