Cool 24/7 ramen spot! Funky atmosphere - anime on multiple tvs and Michael Jackson music playing on the speakers. Everything we had tasted greatt! My favorite thing was the Kimchi Fried Rice with Chicken - it was so good I didn't have the chance to take a photo! lol. Service did not stand out, but when we needed our guy he was nearby and ready to help us. Will definitely be returning! :)) read more

The place smelled not great walking in. It smelt as though they have sewage issues. The mushrooms had no flavor and the edamame I got, I paid $1 more to make it spicy and it just had a paste on top with of it. Not mixed. Now the chicken fried rice was really good, but the star was those drowning gyozas. I got the chicken ones and they were so good. Staff seemed bored, but the girl that took my order was very nice. I got it to-go and it came out relatively quickly. read more

DEM NACHOSSS WAS BUSSIN' Let's get right into it. We went here as a last minute option due to Leighton's House of Lamb + Ramen being CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS. Boom, we come here. They deserve 4.5 stars because come on it's 24/7 ramen. Parking is cool but limited. First impression walking in was that it has this really unique and dope vibe. I love the set up and it was giving spacious. There were cassette tapes aligned on the wall in the booth we sat in, which I thought was very creative. There was Anime characters above the doors when you first walk in, with Anime playing on the TVs at the bar. Oh yeah, THERES A FULL BAR if you ready to get your drink on. Now, off rip the host was annoying. She was kinda rushy and caught an attitude when we asked for a booth. We can't even describe the vibe she gave off fr. It was just BLEH. Our table was clean which is very important to us and our waitress Yasmin was kind and patient with our questions, and dietary substitutions. We ordered the Super Saiyan Nachos as an appetizer for $16. Maaann, these were so delicious!!!!! We actually substituted the pork for shiitake mushrooms and when I tell y'all we were surprised at the portion We both looked at each other like "YAAASSSSSS" Next came our Ramen orders which didn't take long at all. Not that we were counting because we were INDULGED in those nachos LOL Babii rated her Oxtail Ramen a '7/10' for $25. She would've preferred to get shiitake mushrooms because she particularly didn't like the fact that the Oxtails were shredded and not on the bone (which is what we both expected when reading it). She also would've liked if they gave her a spice option since she likes spicy ramen. Unfortunately, we had to purchase a nasty 'Kappa' sauce which was not worth the $1.50. To her the portion size was A1, however we paid for the meat so it wasn't worth the $25. Now, the Vegetable Garden to me was a '8.5/10' it was good, had amazing portion size and they were not lacking in the texture department. I mean, the spinach noodles were delish, vegetable cooked very Al dente. I cannot complain on that part. To me it was missing a bit of flavor, maybe salt would've done the trick. Overall though, it did have the flavor of the mushrooms which wasn't bad. Most importantly though, I felt light after consuming my meal. Therefore, I have to give it all a high rating. GO TRY THIS PLACE OUT, ITS WORTH THE TRY read more

Ever craved ramen at 3:00 am or say 6:00am? Well this place is open 24/7! And they play anime inside the restaurant. The service is always good and the food is pretty good too! I had the pleasure of getting some of my favorites. Love the mixed ramen , shrimp pops and shrimp tura along with the chicken fried rice(so good). This place is my favorite ramen spot here in the Houston area! Make sure you stop by and check it out! read more

Quick and Simple Review - can't go wrong with 24hr ramen! Parking: horrible and tiny! Might find parking in the neighborhood. 3/10 Drowning Gyoza: delish 8.5/10 Kore-age: covered in gochujang honey sauce, it's mostly sweet with no spice. 8.5/10 Surf and Turf: boyfriend got that and he really liked it, expect opt out the ginger because its too overpowering. The tempura was goooooood! 9/10 Luffy: eh it was okay, the steak was hella well done. 6/10 Shinigami: pretty solid and pretty spicy!! 9/10 Kimchi Fried Rice: eh it was also okay. WAAAAY too much ginger and green onions. Would opt out next time! 6/10 Overrall: 8/10 Recommendations: Gyoza, Kore-age, Shinigami, and extra Shrimp Tempuras read more

If you want quality late night food and service, definitely go to Shokku. I brought my boyfriend for the first time, and my second time, and it did not disappoint! The music was on point, the food came out hot and quick, and our waitress, Diana, was phenomenal! She was quick with our requests and water refills, and even packaged our food up for us to go! An awesome experience all around, 12/10, will come back very soon. read more

Me and some of my coworkers were hungry for a good late night meal and not much is open but this great place. The oxtail ramen is flavorful, season well and cooked perfectly. The service was too. I enjoy the batter and the way they cooked the shrimp tempura. I should've gotten more of those. The ambiance felt like Asian culture with pictures all over the walls. read more

Food was mid, had better at places in Chinatown, but still enjoyed the 24/7 hour concept.

This place looked so cool. Anime decor and projectors of anime on the back. However, you cant see hear the anime or anything like that. So, it is there mostly to give you the anime vibes. It's not small inside it's actually spacious for a ramen place. It was definitely unique knowing the place is 24/7. I tried a few of their appetizing one being the gyoza (they had chicken or pork, I got chicken). The gyoza was really flavorful and just dripping with sauce. I am hoping to try their ramen next time. Service was decent I did wait awhile to get refills on my water and for the check. I don't feel like it was a busy night either. I did wait to get seating for 30 mins but I actually think that's a short wait time for them. I think this place probably always has a wait time. They have seating outside where you can wait and then they text you when there's a seat. read more

This ramen restaurant is the only one I know in Houston that is open 24 hours a day. There is limited parking available out front and some towards the rear. The vibes are very casual with an anime sort of theme inside. It is quite dim lit and not too noisy the times I've been, mostly on early weekday evenings. Service can be a hit or miss, but the wait for the actual order to come to the table is longer than expected especially when the house isn't packed. While the menu is fairly small and mainly ramen, they offer some rice dishes and your average Japanese style apps including edamame, gyoza, and karaage, and some fusion items like nachos and tacos. The bar menu is alright and they offer happy hour specials too. We've tried a few of their apps and found them to be very mid. Without sauces, bland. We've also ordered ramen as build-your-own as well as signature bowls. The ramen noodles (yellow which is part of the base price, spinach +2, or konjac +4) were soft and slightly chewy, what a good bounce! Choosing the broth is where it can make it or break it... I found lots of flavor in their miso (creamy pork broth with slight heat) but not so much in the other options. Where it can really add up is the toppings. Most vegetable toppings are roughly a dollar while additonal protein is $3-6, but the quality is not all that great. For instance, the pork and chicken were more on the dry and tough end, whereas the typical pork chashu in ramen is tender and moist...maybe they got overcooked? Same with the eggs...not much flavor and not with the soft yolky center. While I don't consider this restaurant as an authentic ramen spot nor a true Japanese restaurant (I don't think that's what they're trying to be either), I want to think Shokku is a place where friends can hangout and enjoy a warm bowl of noodles and a drink even when it's 3am. I'm not 100% opposed to coming back if friends really really want to, but it is not my top choice because of all the other great ramen spots in town. read more

Came by Shokku Ramen on a Sunday evening for some ramen and sat at the bar for quicker service. I don't enjoy any ramen spots in Houston so I didn't set high hopes for Shokku. The bartender was really nice and attentive, which made the experience smooth from the start. I ordered the vegan ramen with spinach noodles, and my friend went with ramen that had a vegan broth, chicken, and spinach noodles. Both bowls were decent and relatively satisfying. The only downside was that it was so cold inside the restaurant that I couldn't fully enjoy the meal. I was ready to head out sooner than I would've liked. I even asked if they could turn the air down a bit but they couldn't. Aside from that, it's a solid spot with good service and tasty options, especially if you're looking for vegan-friendly ramen. read more

I have been wanting to try this place for years. I'm never nearby unless for an event so I finally made a conscious effort to go. Loved that it's always open so a friend and I decided to go late last weekend. Glad I read about the parking so I knew to park in the next lot. Even though it was busy we did get sat pretty quickly. We had dumplings they were okay I'd say 6/10. I had the oxtail ramen and my friend got the surf and turf. The oxtail had good flavor but her beef was bland. Both of our brothers were lacking in flavor. The server was able to give us some sauce on the side to enhance. Overall they do have different options compared to your usual ramen spot however the broth just isn't doing it for me. Drinks were on point but they took about 20 mins. We also had to go pay at the host stand because no one came back to check on us. read more

I had ordered the Surf & Turf Ramen and the Shrimp Tempura tasted like frozen food. I had also tasted my wife's ramen and both were average taste. The ambiance is decent for us having a very late dinner (about 11pm). There are unlimited of better ramen spots though, especially in H-Town. I believe the overall appeal is that it is open 24/7 making it ideal as a last case resort for ramen, or just food in general for late night eating out with friends. They also do play multiple anime shows at the same time but it's mixed with loud American music.. read more

the draw of this ramen spot is the fact that it's open 24hrs. the overall flavor of the ramen is solid, but when the server brought my ramen, it was pretty cold. it appeared to be a decently clean establishment, the service was great and the server was very personable. definitely added to the late night option list! bonne appétit read more

First time at SR with my family to celebrate my birthday. We went late at night and it wasn't as busy but got very busy after we were seated. The hostess was nice. Our server was amazing!

The food was great, we are definitely coming back to try more items. Loved the atmosphere, very relax and inviting. Definitely give them a try!! read more

Service was top notch with Mari behind the bar. Very attentive and helpful explaining all of the questions I had about the menu, even though She was managing the bar and tables near the bar area! This place is apparently open 24/7 for the dine inn, cool anime ambiance and decor. I tried one of their January seasonal drinks called the Dempsey Roll 10/10 reminded me of an old fashioned but with an orange bitter twist!! I started with the pork tacos which were small but mighty, pork was soft and the taco shell was not greasy!! I ordered their spiciest ramen the Shinigami, don't worry the spicy sauce comes on the side allowing you to make your own spice level. It came with pork and fried chicken and was definitely the best thing I had! Definitely the place to come check out when you're In the mood for ramen. Did I mention they have happy hour and reverse happy hour Monday tru Friday!!! read more

I actually had a good experience at Shokku ramen. A few notes: Food was really delicious. I got the Shokku tacos and they were really delicious. I'd 100% get those again. I can't speak for the ramen but I was definitely impressed by my tacos. I thought the vibe was nice here. It was cool that they had anime playing on the walls. I will say, I wish it was a bit more intimate of an environment. It was a bit loud inside. Overall, this was a fun and unique place to stop. Glad I checked it out. read more

Great service! Fun ambiance! Loved the drowning gyoza. It was very good with all the crunchy bits on top. Very thin gyoza. Which was perfect! I also had the Shinigami Ramen. This is their spiciest Ramen, but the spice comes on the side so you can determine your level. Caution, as it is very hot! At first taste of the broth, it seemed bland to me. This is not the case. Try to stir it as much as you can. All of the good flavor fell to the bottom of the bowl. Very good broth. Not your typical ramen, but it was still good. Only 2 things I didn't like. Paper straws. Why?!?! Those things always fall apart. 2nd was I love just a plain old iced black Unsweet tea. They had the raspberry kind from a fountain machine or green tea. I opted for the green tea as I usually like that. It was a little too sweet for my taste, and I don't believe there are free refills. Other than those 2 things, it was pretty good. A little on the expensive side ($37.89), but still a good value for the portions and quality. read more

I came here on a random late-night Monday because I had heard about a 24-hour Ramen spot, and I had to try it. It was past midnight, and it was shockingly packed, but since I was solo, I was able to sit immediately at the bar. They have lots of Ramen options--especially some that aren't as 'traditional'. I went with the surf and turf ramen, and it was tasty! I also had a side of sushi (forgot the name), which was pretty delicious. And for my drink, my lemon drop was 10/10. Overall, I will for sure be back ESPECIALLY as a late night recovery food option :) read more

Good option for late night meals. I'm not a fan of fast food, so when I can avoid it, I will, but seeing was a Tuesday at 10pm... the options were slim pickings. Luckily, we found this place and immediately had to check it out. Parking out front is pretty limited but the actual restaurant itself is pretty spacious, lots of table available. The restaurant is anime themed. There are multiple TVs airing different animes, anime character dedicated items on the menu, and anime plastered all over the walls. We were seated pretty quickly despite it being busy. The menu is pretty short and straight forward. As far as ramen goes, there are only 6 bowls of offered on the menu HOWEVER there is a Build Your Own Bowl option, so if you think about it... the options are limitless. I did the Build Your Own and asked for the Shinigami spice on the side. The server warned us of its potency, so I added a pea-sized bit to the broth. I thought it was fine and still needed more spice, so I added a fat glob. Big Mistake - the spice level went from a 3 to a 9 and my mouth was on fire. I still finished my bowl, the broth was good, and they give very generous portions of the add-ons. Only downside was that I request no scallions still received a huge portion of scallion in my bowl. The server noticed and offered to have the kitchen remake my bowl, but I declined since I felt it was wasteful. The service was great! The entire staff seems friendly and our server stayed on top of it. I did think the menu was a little pricey, but I'm thinking that's just the premium for 24-hour service. Adding this to my list of late night eats! read more

Stopped in Sunday around 1:30, it was lively but not extremely busy so we were sat right away. The anime decor is cute if you're into that. Our waitress was really nice and she answered all of our questions. We started off with the Kor-age and it was SOOOOO GOOD! The honey sauce was delicious. I ordered the Shinigami Ramen and the flavor of the broth was good on its own but adding a bit of the spice definitely made it that much better. My friend ordered the ramen of the month and she really enjoyed it. Overall, I think it's a solid place for ramen maybe a little over priced but it's worth trying at least once. read more

I was very impressed with this place. The food was really good. I went with my older sons and they both love anime so it was very fitting. I stumbled upon this gem because I was on a cleanse and not eating gluten so I wanted a gluten free ramen. They have Konjac noodles here and I was curious. Honestly I enjoyed this noodles so much I would definitely order them again not even being gluten free. My boys really enjoyed their ramen too. It was pretty busy, we had to wait just a little while for a table. There isn't too much parking around the building but there is street parking as well. They are open 24 hours too which I thought was really cool! I'm sure this place gets packed on weekend late nights! I would definitely go! read more

Came at 3 am with a couple friends and was surprised at how busy it was. They estimated a 45 min wait and told us they had a two hour wait earlier in the night. We waited about 40 min when they texted us. Over all the service by Maggie was pretty great. She was attentive and had a positive attitude even through the hustle and bustle. We ordered the chicken dripping Gyoza (8/10) which the dumplings themselves could have used some more seasoning however the sauce they drown them is was 10/10 delicious. After that I personally had Da Oxtail Ramen $22 (8/10), my friend had the Surf and turf (9/10) $22 and a custom Ramen order in Tori broth (10/10) $17. The broths are not greasy and the soups are full of delicious veggies. I will definitely be back. They had closed caption anime playing on the projector and a great playlist going to keep it lively. Overall great food and a great experience. And yes, it truly is open 24 hours. read more
