    Phenomenal flavor! Kagawa has one of the richest tasting broths I've ever had. There's something about it that feels more 'small batch', 'homemade' over other ramen restaurants, which gave it a uniquely cozy, warm experience. The staff were quick, attentive, and helpful when it came to recommending selections or providing menu information. The restaurant itself is a bit inconspicuous, in where it's situated among the taller building of downtown. Highly recommend seeking out this hidden gem, and enjoying a wonderful bowl of ramen.

    Stopped in here for a quick lunch. Service was fantastic. Relaxed and seat yourself but waitress working hard and promptly. We ordered the Hakata Tonkotsu with the homemade spicy paste and soft boiled egg and it was delicious. Highly recommend.

    This was so fun and delicious! The food was just perfect and the service was quick and easy. I really wish I got the chance to enjoy it more, parking is a nightmare and hard to find in a tight space. If you're in downtown, you have to try the food! Their matcha tiramisu was my FAVORITE part. I don't like matcha but it was so smooth, and flavorful you couldn't taste the matcha. Literal perfection. I love the ambiance although I didn't really like how dim it is. But it fit the theme of the restaurant. Can't wait to come back soon!

    This is one of my go-to Ramen spots in Downtown. The dishes are delicious, good portions, and the service is quick! The vibe inside is very low-key and a good place to bring friends or even solo. Check it out!

    Stopped by after parking nearby and was really impressed. I ordered the chicken ramen and added corn and fried garlic -- it was flavorful and comforting, especially the rich broth. The atmosphere was cool and relaxed, and it felt like a place with a lot of regulars who love coming back. Definitely seems like a neighborhood favorite. I'll for sure be back next time on a planned visit. Service was great as well you seat yourself when you get there and the menu is very easy to read as well.

    Cute Japanese ramen spot with plenty of seating and nice decor. The servers were friendly and attentive, always checking in. I ordered the Naruto ramen with all the toppings along with a melon Ramune. On a hot day, the server even brought me a cup of ice to keep the drink cold, which I really appreciated. The ramen was delicious--the noodles were perfectly al dente and the tonkotsu broth was rich and flavorful.

    I took my nieces to eat ramen, Our waitress was very friendly and immediately attended to us. The ambiance is spacious and the music sets the vibe, located in downtown it was a great experience. The Sake bombs are delicious.

    I am sorry I do not see a review from my first visit here (maybe 2years ago?). I originally had Tonkatsu Ramen and KAARAGE chicken some years ago. I felt the food was filled with as much heart as it did flavor. I met the owner and he seemed like a very down to earth humble guy. Somebody who cares about the people he's serving Today is my first time back since then. I had the fried Gyoza today, which I enjoy very much. Ithas a very light flavor, not heavy or oily. They served me water without asking, and I that there was no ice, but it was still very cold. Talk to the owner again still very nice person. Every time I walk in here I feel at home. I love it. I hope they stick around for a very long time.

    We ordered ramen from this place by door dash. I had the classic miso Tonkotsu ramen and my husband tried the spicy version. It was delicious. The broth came seperate from the rest of the soup. We also ordered a side of pork buns which were very yummy too! I look forward to eating here in person sometime.

    Hands down the best ramen in Phoenix. The broth is incredibly flavorful, the bbq pork was delicious. Service was top notch. Will come back again.

    Hand rolls ("sushi tacos") - scallop, shrimp tempura, salmon
    Tan L.

    They've really improved their menu and service! They now have amazing hand rolls (which they call sushi tacos). The seaweed wrap was crispy. We got spicy tuna, salmon, scallop, and shrimp tempura - all fresh and declicious! Their curry was as good as always, and they've removed the katsu don I wasn't a fan of in my last review. Service was great, and the entire crew is Japanese. Note that the last seating and orders are taken 15 minutes before closing time.

    Raman!
    Brenna D.

    Went here on lunch with some work colleagues. Service was friendly and pretty quick. My Raman was delicious. It's sort of community seating but the prices are reasonable and it's definitely a good spot for lunch.

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 !

    Nishikawa Ramen is a small little ramen shop decorated with anime posters from Naruto, One Piece,…read moreand Dragon Ball. There were also cute little trinkets of My Neighbor Totoro. Upon entering, we were free to seat ourselves and chose a booth by the wall. It was not busy at all and the service was quick and friendly. We started off with a large sake bomb paired with a Kirin Light ($15). We then ordered two Tonkotsu Ramens, one medium spice and one hot spice ($15.99 each). Honestly, the hot spice level did not taste spicy at all, so I would recommend going extra hot if you like spice. They also provide chili powder on the table if you want to add more spice yourself. The ramen broth itself could have used a tad more flavor. I lightly added some soy sauce to the broth which is something I often do to add a little kick. I loved all of the toppings included, from the green onions to the kikurage (wood ear mushroom). My favorite part was the pork chashu, which was really tender and delicious. I also appreciated that the ramen came with a full soft boiled egg rather than half an egg, and the egg was perfectly runny. Before leaving, we ordered their tea special that was buy one get one. We got a matcha milk tea and a cafe latte which I forgot to take a photo of. I felt like the cafe latte could have used a little more sweetness to balance it. Also, I found it neat that Nishikawa offers a rewards program, not something I see often at ramen shops. My true rating would be 4.5 due to some of the criticisms I mentioned above, but overall I still had a good experience. Thank you for serving us. Visited 5/2/26

I sat there for several minutes and when she came back, she asked if I was ready to order. I asked for a menu and then she tapped this little sign on the table that had a QR code on it. I guess they want you to use your phone to look up the menu but then she brought me a printed menu and a glass of water. I had about a minute to look at the menu before the waitress came back and asked what I wanted. I ordered the small portion of the chicken karaage appetizer and the Nishikawa Black Ramen. Both items came out at about the same time. The chicken was good and there was a lot which somewhat surprised me because I thought they had given me a large portion by mistake. The only downside was that the plate was really small so the chicken kept tumbling onto the table. The ramen was just ok. It came in a really big bowl and there was a lot of broth and toppings but relatively little noodles in comparison. It was more like a bowl of soup. The slice of pork was huge but a little bit chewy when I was expecting it to be tender. The egg wasn't sliced so it was difficult to pick up the entire piece with my chopsticks. The chicken was $7 and the ramen was $18. I would have been ok just getting the chicken, perhaps a large portion for $12. I wouldn't get this particular ramen again. With tax and a tip my total was a little over $31 which isn't the most I've spent at a ramen restaurant, but it wasn't cheap either. I wasn't offered a refill on my drink until after I had paid and was ready to leave. In fact, I only saw the waitress once after my food was brought out, and that was when she brought me the bill. The rest of the time she was somewhere in the kitchen.

Our waitress comes to us and takes our drinks and orders. She came back to advise us that they were out of the cucumber salad. I ask if she could add something to my order (I wanted to add an egg to my ramen, not on the side but in the ramen) to which she acknowledged. Roughly 10 mins later, a new waiter brings me out an egg in a bowl! I politely told him I asked for it to be in my ramen, not as a side. He looks at me as if I've lost my mind, then asks if I want it in a to-go box... why?? I told him a second time, that I asked for it to be on my soup, the ramen! He walked away. Another 15 mins goes by and yet another server comes and brings out our food. Everyone around us is getting service, like multiple times, but we have yet to see our waitress. We asked a 3rd waiter if we could get sauces, which he brings out. We eat our food, and guess what...? Still no waitress. We finish our food and had to ask a fourth waiter for a to go box, and finally our waitress comes out and asks if we need anything, to which I tell her, no, we've already been taken care of! She walks away with what seemed like an attitude. Brings our check. Another 10 mins goes by and we don't see her... every other table is gettin their service from their waiters/waitress and we don't. So we get up and pay for our bill, ourselves at the hostess table. Our waitress comes up to take our bill, doesn't say anything at all. No, I'm so sorry I'm waiting multiple tables, or hey sorry I'm working both inside and outside, nothing. Besides the less than par service the food was really good!! If she would have at least communicated to us, how busy she was or is or anything, this would a be a totally different story.

When we walked in it had a very fishy smell, so it kind of made us second guess our choice. But we went for it anyhow. The greeter/server was very pleasant and sat us. It was very clean inside with ample space between seat. We browsed through the menu and started with our usual edamame and pot stickers. The edamame was salted well throughout where a lot of places just put the salt on top only. We ordered a couple varieties of sake which were both good. Out of all of the things we ordered the karange skewer was just a little more oily than were use to, but still good. The spicy salmon roll had really great flavor and the lollipop roll was probably one of the better versions that we have had.

    On a Sunday evening, after checking out the Desert Botanical Garden, I was looking for some food in…read morethe area. I came across Zu Izakaya and it's great reviews as one of the options. I love Japanese food so my decision was made. I drove over and parked in their complimentary lot. Ambiance (3.5/5): I've been to Japan and there are plenty of izakayas there. Think of them as small bars which often serve solid food. Zu fits that bit. It's a relatively small restaurant, probably seats about 30 people. and it's pretty no frills for a Japanese spot. I was seated at a booth in the corner of the restaurant. They have free WiFi which is always a good touch. Service (3/5): Service was friendly, though a bit inconsistent. My waitress wasn't as attentive as I would have liked. The type of service where you have to flag them down to get what you want and to close out. Drinks (4/5): Zu has a nice menu of Japanese and Korean beverages, including sake, soju, Japanese beer, and more. With that being said, I just had an iced green tea. Food (4/5): I got a nice variety. I went with the Japanese sausage off of the grill menu, the OBI mayo roll off of the sushi menu, and the cheese corn off of the appetizer menu. Let's start with the sausage. It's a small item, two small sausages, but absolutely delicious. The sausage was bursting with flavor and basted in a sweet sauce. Minus the portion size, perfection. The cheese corn also hit the spot, but the execution was off. The corn is served on a hot platter, and unfortunately some of the corn on the edges was badly burnt. The type of situation where they should start over. Which they didn't. Lastly, the OBI mayo roll is essentially a California roll with marinated warm shrimp on top in a mayo sauce. I didn't love the hot and cold combo (shrimp and sushi), but outside of the temperature, it was a delicious roll. All in all, a very food meal. My only gripe with Japanese food is that it can get expensive quick. Given that Zu is in Tempe, I was hoping that prices would be a little cheaper. With that being said, they do have a solid happy hour (and reverse happy hour) with both food and drink specials. Next time I stop by, I'd like to check out some of their Korean options. I focused on the Japanese stuff this time (which makes the majority of the menu). Next time around, the bulgogi is calling my name!

Funny enough, this actually wasn't even the exact restaurant my partner had been thinking of when he brought it up, but honestly I'm so glad we ended up here anyway because the food was REALLY good. We ordered the flaming ohmygod sushi roll, and man... it was amazing. Not only was the presentation fun, but the sushi itself actually tasted incredible too, which sometimes isn't the case with more "gimmicky" menu items. It was so good that I literally ordered another roll to-go and took it on the plane back home with me because I already knew I'd be craving it later. That alone should say enough about how much I liked it. I also tried the matcha martini, and it was honestly one of the best cocktails I've had in a while. It had the perfect balance of matcha flavor and alcohol where neither one overpowered the other. Sometimes matcha drinks either taste way too earthy or completely lose the matcha flavor under the alcohol, but this one was super smooth, flavorful, and really well done. The restaurant itself also has a really nice atmosphere. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and the indoor area definitely has a more upscale vibe than your usual sushi spot and that makes the experience feel a little more elevated and perfect for a date night. On top of all that, the servers were super friendly and provided genuinely great service throughout the meal. Everyone was attentive, welcoming, and made the experience feel really comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, this place completely exceeded my expectations.

I ordered two rolls: hot havana and mango roll. Both were delicious and the mango was juicy! The purple rice was super fun and set them apart from other sushi spots. I also ordered the miso soup to start. The food came out quickly. My only "complaint" is there aren't a ton of classic roll options. But this is a more upscale sushi restaurant, so it isn't surprising. I will keep this place in my list of spots to hit when I'm looking for a bite to eat in DTPHX.
