    Came again and it was great. Excellent portion on the kung pao chicken which did come with rice.

    Egg roll

    After 3 years we decided to give this place another try. The stellar reviews on yelp and Google had us optimistic. Sadly, the food is even worse than the first time we tried. We got the spicy tuna roll, and the crunch roll, tonkotsu ramen, and gyoza. The rolls had a very stale seaweed in them. It was so chewy we almost choked. The crunchy roll was doused in a super sweet sauce which overpowered the crab and avocado. The tonkotsu had an off putting taste and came with 2 very thin, very dry slices of chashu. The gyoza was nothing memorable and the cosmopolitan I ordered was watered down juice in a glass. We won't be returning. For $70 the quality of the food MUST improve.

    Spicy Seafood Ramen
    Bianca M.

    Came on a Sunday evening with my family. I would say pretty kid - friendly. The atmosphere was very clean and welcoming. Service was attentive. My husband got a Firecracker Roll and a Godzilla roll. Both were made with care and precision. The flavor was robust but not over powering. They both were cooked rolls and the crispy ness on the outside was really good. Presentation perfect. I got the Jalapeño Crab appetizer. Not too spicy but just enough kick. Me and my son shared the Seafood Spicy ramen. It was DELICIOUS! The flavor has a miso undertone and the spice is really good. I loved how spicy it was but I had to moderate myself a bit. It was definitely spicer than the rolls but I like it like that. They gave a good amount of scallops, shrimp and fish cakes. The ramen was fresh and not too soft. Loved the onion as a garnish.

    Chicken ramen+Snow white rolls+egg rolls
    Brandi J.

    The food was good. I ordered from Uber eats and the food arrived within the stated timeframe. I ordered chicken fried rice, the Snow White roll, spring rolls and chicken ramen. My favorite item was the Snow White roll, my least favorite was the fried rice. There wasn't much added flavor other. The ramen was delicious. I enjoyed the portion of noodles to broth and veggies. I'm looking forward having an in person experience because I'm sure it'll be a step above the delivery order.

    Why 5 stars? Because this was the best ramen I've had in the area. --- --- --- I think I bookmarked Sam Ramen about 2 years ago. Every time it gets cold outside since then, I've thought, "I should check out that Sam Ramen place," but then I don't, and next thing you know, it's summer and I don't want ramen anymore. But finally, I was determined to come check it out, despite it being a pretty warm February day. I was a bit congested and just like all doctors advise, I thought ramen would be the best medicine. Since moving to the area about 2.5 years ago, I've had ramen at a few different places and have been disappointed each time. I'm not sure if it's just the nature of living in the suburbs or that too many places are attempting to master a concept that requires more work than they're willing to admit, but either way, the subpar experiences have almost ruined ramen for me. Almost. Sam Ramen, thankfully, was anything but subpar. Was the tonkotsu the best ramen I've ever had in my life? I can't say that, but I've also had ramen in Tokyo aka the mecca. But this was definitely my favorite to-date in the Houston area and it hit the spot perfectly. Probably the one nitpick is that I like a thicker noodle, but the flavor of everything was pretty perfect. My wife ordered some edamame and some sushi, which I also indulged on. Edamame would never be my choice, but did I eat like 100 of them? Absolutely. She also let me have some of her Shaggy Dog roll, which was solid, but not as great as the ramen. Our service was also prompt and friendly. Kudos to Sam Ramen and sorry it took me so long to visit!

    Seafood Korean Ramen
    Kim D.

    Went to Sam Ramen with family and it was amazing! The place is spacious and clean, and service is quick and great. I ordered the seafood Korean ramen and it was unbelievably rich in flavor. Spicy for sure but manageable! I'd say it's about as strong as spicy Jin ramen. Great mix of noodles (on the softer side) and fresh toppings too. I'd suggest getting an extra marinated egg too, I really love that they aren't the sweet kind. My parents had shrimp lo mein and veggie miso ramen and they said both dishes were flavorful. Also, the servings are huge so you're definitely getting your money's worth here!

    Spicy seafood ramen

    Came here for lunch on a cool day with a friend. This place was clean and quiet on a weekday. Our waitress was attentive and gave us great recommendations. They have a lunch special with sushi rolls but I wanted to give their ramen a try this go around. Their spicy miso is a fan favorite but I wanted something with seafood so I went for the spicy seafood Korean style ramen. It was definitely spicy but not overbearing. I enjoyed the shrimp and scallops that came with the ramen and loved how much fresh veggies came with it! The egg was probably my favorite part, it was so flavorful and cooked just right. I definitely recommend this place - you won't be disappointed!!

    Chicken ramen - hubby has declared this his favorite bowl of ramen EVER!
    Christine S.

    Since it was a cold and gloomy day, I wanted something nice and warm. Something like a nice big bowl of soup, better yet...a bowl of ramen! My husband isn't as big a fan of ramen as my son and I are but he acquiesced and off we went. First, I love the vibe of this place! Really clean, bright and great seating. We ordered way too much food but hey LEFTOVERS! By the time we left my husband had pronounced this his favorite bowl of ramen yet! We will definitely be back, again and again!

    The take out bag

    If you love your stomach don't eat here! I ordered today a ramen and it made me sick. I had to vomit while I was driving. I have a very strong stomach and this is the second time in my whole life that I get food poisoning. I managed to vomit on my polo shirt but unfortunately my car got messed up. I'll post more pictures once I arrive home. I called the manager and explain the situation. She did not seem to be apologetic and she said she couldn't do anything. Please, eat somewhere else. The place is expensive for this to happen!

    Garlic Black Bean Ramen with extra egg.
    Hailey C.

    Amazing ramen place to go too! Staff is always super friendly and the food is freshly made ready hot! My go-to ramen is Garlic Black Bean Ramen with extra egg added in. Favorite appetizer: cheese wontons & gyoza (pan fried dumplings). Bathrooms are always clean and smell like flowers, so they are good about their work environment being clean too. Cute little detail that I noticed is that they have a flower on each table. Glad to have a really good ramen place on 242 that is easy to stop by and grab a bite!

    Curry ramen and katsu chicken
    Kat Y.

    The curry ramen was so yummy, the broth was very flavorful. I enjoyed the bao bun as well. Will return! The waitress was also very kind, I started coughing because I drank to much water and she got so concerned it was cute. She was also very kind to my 2 year old son. Very warm environment.

    Edemame

    I was looking for a new sushi spot and didn't know what to expect. I walked in an immediately felt like I had just walked into a nice hotel. It smelt luxurious and the atmosphere was nice. Everything was so clean. Even the restrooms were really clean. I sat down and ordered a few appetizers. I started with an egg roll, wontons, edamame, and a ninja jalapeno popper. Everything was so good I couldn't wait to order some sushi. I ordered red snapper, salmon, and eel sashimi. So fresh. I couldn't have asked for an anything better. I ordered the Philadelphia Roll and Snow White Roll to finish out my meal. The Philadelphia roll was just as expected. I had never had the Snow White Roll and was excited to try it. Now it is my favorite. Everything had a fresh and clean taste. I will definitely be going back. The sooner the better. I found my new favorite sushi spot.

    Curry spicy miso
    Lauren B.

    I'm in love!!! A new spot opening up in our Neigbor H‑E‑B shopping center and I cannot be happier. Inside is very clean and modern looking. Lots Of booths to pick from or tables. The curry spicy miso soup was perfectly spicy and delicious. We went with the super crunchy roll, the texas roll( so creamy), and California roll, all great. The kids had the chicken lo mein, no complains; they ate everything on their plate. We shared the combination fried rice, it was all perfection. Very friendly staff. Couldn't ask for more

I loved it. Tasted like the sonic lemon cream slushie. I drank the whole thing and it was worth the money for sure. We shared a gyoza appetizer, and it was great. They were perfectly crispy on the bottom with soft texture on top. The sauce was a bit sweeter than a normal gyoza sauce, but it was pretty good, and one member of our party really liked it. I got the Tonkatsu ramen, and it was better quality than your average American ramen! The chashu was perfect with a slight crisp to it, the noodles were springy, and I enjoyed the addition of the bok choy. It was also the perfect amount of food. I'm actually sad this isn't in my local area. I had a great meal here and would highly recommend.

It does come with a sauce which helps, but I wish the chicken itself was also seasoned. As for entree I ordered the spare rib ramen. Again, the fried spare ribs lacked seasoning, but the fry was well done. The ramen was very light, almost too light in my opinion for a true ramen broth. The chili oil they have though is delicious and improved the taste of the soup a lot.

Vibrant, fresh colors and flavors in the bibimbap - see the photo. After lunch I had a nice chat with her and she's just charming. I'm guessing the horrible reviews of a bad manager were of someone else. Here's my initial review from 2020: Had a terrific lunch here - five ingredients in a bento-style box, each one delicious. The place is chock full of Korean stuff - food, candy, tchotchkes, reminded me very much of shopping in Little Korea. The mother and son team cooking and serving are adorable, incredibly sweet and eager to please. If the place were a little cleaner and kept neatly I'd give it five stars, but the clutter actually made it feel more authentic.
