There are also a variety of alcoholic beverages available. Some reviewers stated there were not, so maybe this is a recent development. Upon arrival, the server brought two bowls of complementary soup. We ordered a salmon roll and an eel roll, along with some nigiri. Food was brought out quickly and tasted delicious! Prices were also extremely reasonable. If we lived closer, we would definitely frequent this place often!

Today I got the Salmon Hibachi with Fried Rice to go and it might be the saltiest meal have ever had. Gagging level of salty - but that's not the worst part.

It was Easter Sunday. Apr 5, 2026. This was my first visit to TDLLO Ramen & Sushi. There was a…read morecocktail bar and a sushi bar. I opted for a booth. The decor included dark wooden furniture, hardwood floors, door curtains for kitchen, and a ceiling lamp in the shape of a fish. On each table was a pale bottle with a small spout and a large stopper. This was for the black sauce, and the first time I have seen black sauce provided at tables in anything other than the small transparent bottle with double-spout cap. Next to the kitchen doorway was a black board announcing "What's New". The menu is printed on black-colored pages bound by black leather cover, which matched the black uniforms of the staff. I ordered my usual ramen: tonkotsu. It was served with a renge and a fork, the latter for those uncomfortable with using chopsticks. That didn't apply to me. I put the fork to the side and used the wooden chopsticks. The tonkotsu had three thick pieces of chasu, lots of menma slices, some kikurage strips, and a soft-boiled egg served in two halves. Though a little saltier than I would like, the broth was still delicious and complimented the food well, especially the chasu. It had a mild spiciness that caused slight irritation to my throat, but otherwise was worth consuming the entire bowl. It was about 11:10am when I arrived. Besides myself, there was one other party of two. The cocktail bar had two large TVs, one playing CNN and the other playing a sports program. The volume level was barely a whisper. Most of the time, I didn't hear anything. By 11:45am, two more parties of two showed up. The atmosphere was quiet the entire time, and definitely a great place to relax and enjoy a meal during lunch time. As I was leaving, I took a look at the outdoor dining area. It is housed in a patio next to the building. It has plenty of seating and is almost enclosed but for a cased doorway. I was impressed that TDLLO is accommodating to its customers during rain or shine (unlike Noodles Blvd in Cary). I will definitely come back to try a different ramen. Plenty of indoor and outdoor (sheltered) seating, plenty of parking, quiet atmosphere and good ramen, TDLLO Ramen & Sushi has my recommendation.

Sushi is fresh -waitstaff fine - they have outside seating - curious as to why they aren't busy anymore- However- two things to be on the watch for: 1) inside it's really cold - attention owner / manager , it's really cold in your restaurant. 2) their suggested tipping % on the handheld computer is computed AFTER tax .

We got the large beef pho and a pork Bahn Mi. $28…read more First the good. The bun on the Bahn Mi was perfect. It would be awesome if every place had buns as good as this. The rest of the Bahn Mi tasted different from all of the other places (20+ different places in the past 8 years) that I've been to - and not in a good way. The best way I can describe the meat taste - is as if it was a bad Philly Cheese steak. The beef pho was the worst tasting pho we've ever had. Tonight as I write this review I'm hoping none of us gets sick. Maybe this was just a bad night? But, if not, I hope this place strives to make some serious improvements.

I couldn't pick one, I started with three lol And my Tonkotsu Ramen was chef's kiss! This is my new absolute favorite Ramen spot in the area. I've traveled to Okinawa a couple of times and truly enjoy Ramen, and honestly, this location has the best tasting food that makes me feel like I'm right back.

Whether it's just the two of us or with a group, there have been no complaints on our end. Let's see how this visit went. We were seated once we walked in. Just like before, the decor was set up perfectly and each customer was taken care of by the wonderful staff making sure everyone was comfortable. No problems here at all. For the selections, we had pan-fried pork gyoza and I had chicken Katsudon for my entree (Sophia had her usual, chicken Katsu Ramen). Everything delivered was on point. Well-cooked and tasted great. I do wish I could add more, but when you eat regular dishes, there's nothing more to say. Thank you again Tanpopo Ramen for making Sophia and myself satisfied. Keep it up :)

I appreciated the simplicity of this place in that regard , the broth really talked for itself. Im not a fan of miso so I wasnt exactly sure if id like it, but like I said, best ramen ive ever had . Ive never had a good ramen egg either, sometimes they're just too egg-y or mucus like for lack of a better descriptor, I actually ate this ramen egg. It didnt taste like egg and had a very nice jello like texture, will be going back next time im in the area to try the katsu . Service was also very prompt & attentive. I was sat right away, I had my food within 10 minutes even though the place was a little busy since it was dinner time on a Saturday night, and the server was very nice. **Ramen excluded the nori**

Food - 9/10 I was in a ramen mood so I just got the basic Miso Ramen with an egg and Shrimp Tempura inside and it was pretty tasty and it looked like something from Naruto. Interior - 8/10 like I said, it's a small business and I wasn't expecting something big and decorative but everything looked nice and organized. There were still some boxes I saw out (During my visit) but I wasn't complaining, they had to work with what they had so I understand. Overall I would definitely come back and probably consider myself a regular customer but I wouldn't use DoorDash because the food would get soggy quick. I would give it a 9/10.

I ordered the Kake Udon for me and two orders of steamed gyoza for my kiddo. I gotta say, I was surprised when the order arrived. The udon noodles were paper thin compared to what I'm used to. The fried tofu was so hard it was basically inedible, and the broth - well, it had little to no flavor. To top it off, my kiddo took a bite of one dumpling and then spit it out. This child DESTROYS dumplings, so I asked him what happened -- he said "who puts corn and carrots in a gyoza dumpling?!?" and I can't say I disagree with him. Pork and cabbage filling - duh! Overall, totally not our jam and we probably won't revisit it. I guess the reviews are based more on folks who haven't experienced true Japanese cooking? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure my Japanese host mother would have given it no stars.

I also snuck some bites of my husband's katsu-don and was a little jealous of how good it was. Next time I will get the katsu ramen bowl and have the best of both worlds. We also got sashimi and crab Rangoon for appetizers which everyone enjoyed. And my lychee ice tea was sooo good. It's a bit sweet but the lychee flavor was amazing and I can't wait to try the other flavors. Overall a great experience, especially after a day of traveling in chilly weather. Thank you for the great service and friendly welcome, can't wait to return!
