Thick dry chicken breast meat in chicken miso ramen. So bland.
Jennifer N.

They ran out of Tonkatsu Ramen and everything else on a Saturday night 7pm (they closes at 9 pm) Chicken Ramen was only available so we ordered that. It literally was G.R.O.S.S. :-( The best part was the noodle. I wished the broth and the chicken breast meat tasted better. The soup broth was so bland! I even think they ran out of the chicken broth and just added hot water and a whole LOT of black pepper. It tasted like hot water broth with a lot of black peppper!! The chicken breast was thick dried tasteless huge chunk. It left a really bad taste in my mouth and I'm sorry to say it was the worst bowl of ramen I've ever had in my life.. Sorry. :-( we ordered 3 bowls and my friends all said it wasn't good at all.

The food looked and smelled great but for me personally it was too spicy even though I asked for no spicy but she assured us it was not. The few bites I was able to eat before it got to be too much was good but a waste of even the dumplings were not that good due to heavy had of a not spicy sauce yet again. Disappointing but I am sure those who love spicy will enjoy. I did appreciate that it was located within the hotel and you can order by kiosk or with a person. The portions are generous but again we could not finish it.

Good ramen with a different taste. Plenty of pork and noodles and like how Shogun Ramen includes egg and a little spicy paste. Portion size was perfect and reasonable price point. Staff were friendly with a nice hometown vibe.

Chef Damon Thomas was nice and awesome ! YUMMY Ramen !

First time trying the Rio Resort and Casinos - Food court and YUMMY ! Chef Damon Thomas was great ! They have six different food options - Burgers. Sushi Phillysteaks, Chicken fingers, Burritos and Ramen. I ordered the Shogun ramen and by far hands down the BEST for my taste and I've tried at least 5 other local spots in Las Vegas ! So if you are near the Rio or just wanna come check out their food court ... they have other choices if you don't want Ramen ! However, if you do order Ramen I believe you will enjoy it !

It doesn't live up to the anti-hype at all. Shogun Ramen is a local restaurant that was formerly a chain but now survives only in the Canteen Food Hall of the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. I enjoyed their location on Blue Diamond back when it was the best in town. Their Henderson expansion may have hit a snag because the broth was too salty, at least in my experience. And now that I'm getting promotional dining credit from this casino, I figured I may as well give them another look-see. Ordering can be done at the register or via one of multiple kiosks located around the food hall. I went the latter route, swiped my Rio players card, and took care of payment easily. The food didn't take too long to come out; I picked my bowl up at the window (and also got a cup for water, which can be obtained at the soda machines), but I saw other guests simply sitting at the counter and waiting for the cook to bring their bowls over. I went with my go-to order, the namesake Shogun Ramen ($15.00). The tonkotsu-based broth is not too salty here and at first seemed about as flavorful as I could remember it. However, it did feel a bit muted later on for some reason, so I didn't feel obligated to slurp every last drop. The noodles were firm enough, and the chashu was thick but tender. The egg yolk in the half-egg was soft enough, so it wasn't overcooked. The green onions, sprouts, and nori were fine too. Aside from the ramen simply not being the best in town anymore, there's an issue related to Shogun's presence in a food hall: they don't offer proper ramen spoons here. All you get is a flat plastic soup spoon. Not only is the capacity too low, but the angle isn't right to reach into the deep bowl. Overall, Shogun Ramen is a great option if you're eating at the Rio, and it could very well be the best food available in the building at any price point. I must have missed the growing pains in the first year, but I'd take the Shogun which I just experienced over many other ramen spots around town.

I dined at Shogun Ramen located in the Rio at their Canteen Food Hall. I had a dining credit from Rio so it was free! Can't complain about that! I got the Shogun Ramen which for $14 is actually a pretty good deal for being inside a casino resort. I paid more at several places off the strip in Chinatown. It came standard with a decent amount of toppings. I ordered extra noodles which honestly wasn't necessary since the portions are already large and I was struggling to finish. I only did that because I was $3 shy from my $25/night food credit and wanted to fully use it up. I did wish the noodles were thicker though! You can easily order through the Canteen Food Hall website and you have the ability to apply the dining credits and also mix and match from a variety of vendors!

Delicious ramen made fresh to order inside the Rio Hotel and Casino! The Shogun Ramen was cooked perfectly with amazing flavor and perfectly cooked pork, noodles and egg. Service was impeccable and my order was prepared fresh and fast. The decor is very modern with a Japanese flare of wooden accents and bar top seating as they would in Japan. The prices are very fair for being inside a casino and definitely recommend Shogun Ramen!

Quin G.

Ramen spot inside the Rio for anyone craving ramen while gambling. A decent spot to eat. You have to order via QR code provided at the front counter. The staff here are nice and understanding. The ramen itself is not bad and is pretty good! Easy to find. Recommend 10/10

Neo ramen

The food was delicious and the service was great had us entertained with the dancing and singing with the songs playing in the back ground. From the cook to the cashier they made us enjoy our time and we will be back just for them. Thanks guys for making our dinner plans better.

I really try not having to write bad reviews. Love the variety in this small food court but we didn't expect too much coming here as it was not a busy food court at all and it was prime time on a weekend. I guess nothing is really good here. We decided to go with chicken ramen (i am cutting back from fatty red meats and pork at the moment) and goodness the chicken looked dry, a huge chunky cut that lacked appeal in every way and as everyone said, they couldn't get the flavor right so salt it is to make it up. Unfortunately, it didn't help enhance any flavor but straight up salty bowl of noodles and soup. Chicken was dry and it was far from hitting the spot. We also ordered the Shogun ramen but somehow got the Neo instead and didn't know it was spicy. Luckily the spice paste was dappled on top and was pretty easy to remove if needed. That was also not great but descent. Sad to say, first and probably last time we will come here.

I got the ramen togo but ate it within 5 minutes of getting it. Love the way they packaged it. 3/5: The ramen noodles were ok. Cooked well. Had a good mouth feel. The broth wasn't anything special. The chashu had some flavor but missing the typical strong umami flavor. The spicy condiment is basically sriracha. Overall considering the way they promote themselves I was expecting a new experience. Very lackluster as far as ramen goes.

Stayed at the Rio and ramen was sounding good. It wasn't very busy, so I stopped by Shogun Ramen. The chef/worker was really cool, he made some recommendations. I ordered the Shogun Ramen, since it was their top seller. Added egg... the egg was the best thing about it. The ramen was mid. The chashu was thick, flavorful, but very fatty. The dashi was salty... very salty. I didn't realize how salty until I woke up the next morning and my fingers were hurting and so swollen my wedding ring wouldn't slide onto my finger (and it's normally kind of loose!) Thankfully I took it off the night before. Had I not, my finger would have swelled so bad it would've definitely cut the circulation off! I'd say pass... unless you like high blood pressure and water retention.

There's always a wait, because the place is tiny but the wait never seems too long and it is worth it. My favorite is the miso ramen with a side of the eggs. Their eggs are a must have. It won't be complete without it. Sometimes, we get a side of fried rice with it and that is also amazing too. Only down side is the parking. For me, it's a hit or miss. I may come at a time where there seems to be a few open spaces and other times, I would have to circle the lot and the street to find parking. Either way, I don't mind because the prize is waiting for me at Monta.

Every since Menya Musashi closed down, we had to visit Jinya every so often. Ramen boys' Tsukemen sucked, but think their Tonkotsu was decent from what I remember last? This place is one of my cousin's favorite local ramen place. If it's as consistent, then definitely can become a favorite here! But Vegas is full of false hope. Consistency is considered a difficult expectation even for chain food places in Vegas, typical. We'll see. We visited on Labor Day Monday around 930pm. No line with only 1 single diner and us there. It wasn't until maybe 10pm when more visitors started popping in. The place looks great for individual eaters too. I'm not sure it's as spectacular to wait in a line? $14.50 Deluxe Tonkotsu. This and the classic are popular choices. But I was eyeing the Kuro Black Garlic. Do deluxe was an easy choice cause it has the black garlic in it. - Add extra noodles for $2.50 (which I did to-go with my leftover Tsukemen broth also taken to-go). They can offer thin noodles or udonish but not the Tsukemen special one. - This ramen was mild spicy which took me by surprise. In case anyone can't do any spicy due to dietary, medical etc, then I'm sure they can take it out? Noodle texture was great! Broth was decent and more simple. $15.95 Tsukemen. Usually a fav of mine but very difficult to find a place I like? Only the OG original Sliverlake Ramen did it for me. Noodles were on point!! Broth was decent. However, looks like missing corn or maybe other eaters like to add corn to theirs? And the meat pieces were pretty tiny or scrappy in my broth. I was expecting a bit larger pieces than 2, and slot more scrappy pieces. Only the Deluxe Miso Ramen has diary in its ramen. All the other ramens have are dairy free! Was looking into the small bowls like the salmon egg/mini mentaiko bowl $6.25 but was told by staff that it's alot of rice and small amount of eggs. So it was a no for me. $5.50 Sapporo Draft. $3.95 Sapporo light via bottle. Next time looking to also try their shoyu style, and black graphic ramen.

But honestly, sometimes that makes you think, "Okay... if it looks like this, the food MUST be bomb." And thankfully, it was! When we first walked in, we checked ourselves in through the Yelp waitlist, but nobody greeted us or explained what to do. As first-timers, that was a little off-putting because we weren't even sure if we had checked in correctly. Eventually we were seated, though, and once someone attended to us, everything moved pretty quickly. We ordered the spicy umami ramen, garlic edamame, and nigori sake. For our son, we ordered the veggie ramen but asked if they could make it super simple with just the noodles, broth, and corn because he is VERY picky. They were totally accommodating, which we really appreciated. Now THE RAMEN. My first bite was honestly like, "Okay, this isn't bad." But then I kept eating it...and the flavor just kept opening up. Then we took a sip of the nigori sake, went back to the ramen, and OMG. It completely changed the experience. The spice was SO GOOD. It's the kind that catches you in the back of your throat before it even hits your tongue. It might have you coughing for a second, but somehow you're coughing while immediately going back in for another bite because YOU CAN'T STOP EATING IT. The flavor just builds and builds. So good! And the biggest win? OUR SON ATE HIS RAMEN. He actually really enjoyed it, which is huge for us because now ramen officially goes on the list of foods we can all go out and eat as a family! As far as atmosphere, this isn't really a fancy date-night spot. It's more of a casual ramen joint where I'd come with family, friends, or coworkers when I just want some really good food. The only thing keeping this from five stars for me was the service experience. Not being greeted or told how the waitlist worked was confusing as a first-time customer, and there wasn't much checking back once we had our food. If that doesn't matter to you, then honestly, you're good to go because THE FOOD DELIVERS. Overall, four stars and definitely recommended. Come for the ramen, don't expect a whole meet-and-greet situation , and prepare yourself for that spicy umami because it was BOMB.

Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5…read moreAmbiance: 5/5 Cool ramen spot to check out and located next to Durango Station. Food and vibes were great! Lots of parking and eateries in this shopping center. We missed happy hour by one hour. Ordered the Hakata Tonkatsu DX, Chicken Paitan DX, and Chicken Karaage. I originally ordered the Hakata Tonkatsu without the DX but they made it as a DX and brought it to me and asked me if I wanted it and would still only charge me for original one I ordered. This was very nice of them. You can choose your spiciness, but my party agreed that they are conservative with the spice. I ordered mines mild but didn't taste any spice at all (I don't like spicy.) The Chicken Paitan is limited daily and by the time we got there for dinner they only had 2 left, so we claimed one. All in all, I enjoyed my experience here. Their ramen taste like typical ramen, nothing too special. I would come back here for their happy hour (2-5 pm daily) to try other things!

Great, if you're dining by yourself at one of the bar seating or if you're with a group of friends, they have tables in the back and then I believe they also have outdoor seating from what it looked like. (I was there at night.) I am so grateful for our server. He really was a trooper, we were trying to figure out some of my allergies, and he really went above and beyond to doublecheck things. I got an iced Matcha, and my friend got a non-alcoholic Sapporo. And we both enjoyed our beverages. Prices were pretty reasonable and they do have happy hour and deals throughout the week. For a starter, we ordered the Marufuku bites: Pirikara Chicken. It was the perfect level of spice. The ratio of bun to vegetable to sauce, was really great and we quite enjoyed it. It was a perfect little starter snack while we were waiting for our food. I ordered the Chicken Paitan with spinach noodles and my friend ordered the Hakata Tonkotsu DX ramen. There was a mixup with my noodles and they quickly remade my Ramen with the correct noodles and I really appreciated how swift they were able to do that. From the outside, the bowl looks like it isn't holding that much when in reality when you start eating, you realize that there is a lot in there! My only complaint is that I wish there would've been more chicken. The egg was fantastic and I absolutely loved the spinach noodles. They gave a really good amount of noodles! The broth was fantastic! It was the perfect comfort food. We sat there in complete silence as we happily ate our food. I finished the bowl clean! Overall, it was really great experience and I'm excited to go there again in the future. Especially more in the winter! Sometimes parking can be a little difficult because it does get really packed in that area, so just keep that in mind, especially on weekends at night, you might need to park farther down closer to mothership.
