I did not have any libations since it was not opened during my visit but it's on my list of endeavors. I'm not sure if the bar offers food or if you have to order from one of the available restaurants and bring your food to the table. This review is merely to speak on the venue and a later review is coming once I visit the bar during opening hours.

Our meals were rounded out with miso soup and a salad.

Coming from someone who doesn't really eat ramen (not a broth person, I'm working on it ) I will definitely be back for that. I removed the memna and the kikurage and added shiitake, spinach and chili oil. Also got a side of brussel sprouts and they were perfectly crispy and seasoned. 10/10. All the food came out hot but not scorching. Can't wait to go back!!

I really enjoyed my experience at Toki Underground!…read more Toke Underground a small bar and restaurant in the H st corridor which seems to be most well known for its ramen offerings. We got there nice and early on a Friday to enjoy the happy hour which is available from 4-6 on weekdays. As a part of happy hour they had several cocktails and small bites for $10 or less. I had the pumpkin spice spritz and an order of the fried chicken bites - both were really really good. I'd order both items again. For awareness, they limit dining in to about an hour and a half - because the restaurant is fairly small, they want folks to make their seats available for other guests pretty quickly. They weren't rude about enforcing this time limit, but they definitely tell you up front and quickly gather your orders/plates to help move you though the meal quickly. This is a nice date spot - it's coziness would make for the perfect ambiance in you're looking to grab a bite with that special someone. Pro tip: Be careful not to walk past it! The signage outside isn't the best, so it's very easy to miss the door completely (as I did).

Servers are very attentive and come by very often. Must Try: Shrimp Naruto Atmosphere/Setting: very small place with dim lighting. This isn't the place to have your birthday celebration with a Partiful of 20 people. It's moreso catching up with a friend or having a good meal after a long day alone. Food: it's a ramen spot but honestly I've had better ramen but this one is pretty good. I think the appetizers are moreso the star of the show ! Appetizers : Shrimp Naruto (10/10) , Brussels Okonomiyaki (8/10) , Yuzu Rootbeer Wings (6/10) Shrimp Naruto is phenomenal , literally my favorite. I wanted to like to e wings but they were too soft for my liking. If they were fried harder or had a bit more of a crunch I'd rank them higher because the flavor is there. Drinks: both drinks were great !

Gyozas had wasabi on it so be careful but it was amazing with layers of flavors. The rice pot was more than enough for 4ppl to share with tons of meats and seafood inside. Like a paella but Japanese. Meatballs were underestimated but it delivered. Tasted amazing we had to order another one. Most items are one order, one item so ask before ordering. Service was perfect.

Not only is the food great, but the interior is so cute and the ambiance is amazing. It has that cozy, intimate vibe with really fun decor, and they also have a larger dining area if you are going with a group. I have gone on weekday evenings for happy hour, and it has never been too crowded, which makes the experience even better. This place honestly feels like a hidden gem that I want to gatekeep but cannot. I always order the crunchy spicy salmon roll, smoked salmon nigiri, salmon nigiri, and tamago nigiri, and they never miss. Everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and well made. I have also brought friends here who are picky sushi eaters, and they all loved it, which says a lot. Definitely a spot I will keep coming back to and recommending.

For entrees, highly recommend House-Style Diced Beef, Ginger & Scallion House-Style Lobster, Honey Walnut Prawns, Crispy & Spicy Pork Chops, Peking Roasted Duck, and Soft-Shell Crab Fried Rice.
