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.

I went with a group of 7, and they didn't have any regular seating options that could accommodate our size, so that may be something to consider. I ordered their traditional tonkotsu ramen and red bean Takoyaki with ice cream. The tonkotsu came with quail eggs, rather than a standard egg. Everything was so satisfying and I loved the generous portion of vanilla ice cream that was paired with my dessert. The staff was super kind--I would definitely go back here!

It's hard to find Thai food in that area, but they actually get it right. This is the basil fried rice. It comes with egg, and I added the combination meats, spices, and pineapples. Their green curry is amazing so I ordered a side of that as well. Very fresh ingredients. I'll be back for it again.

I loved the concept of ordering using a tablet. Each restaurant inside of the food hall has a tablet right in front for easy ordering. I ordered the pad Thai with chicken and spring rolls. I came around lunch time and the food was ready in about 10 minutes. Everything came out piping hot which is one of the most important factors for me when ordering food out. The noodle portion was generous, enough for two or three servings depending on how hungry you are. This pad Thai included the noodles, bean sprouts, spring onion, red onion, scrambled egg, and of course chicken (lemon wedge on the side). The flavor was a bit sweet, but it wasn't bad at all. Just a different flavor than what I'm used to for pad Thai. My only complaint about the pad Thai was that the chicken that was used had a gummy texture, similar to the chicken used for bourbon chicken in the malls. I did not eat any more of the chicken and honestly could have done without it. The spring rolls were okay. I was excited to try them because they were not made with shrimp. But they were just too greasy for me, and this took away from the flavors. Seating is open since it's located inside of the food hall. Very clean tables and a great spot to meet up informally for lunch or grab a bite before getting on to the train. I took away two stars for the gummy chicken and greasy spring rolls.

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).

TLDR: would recommend, decent ramen. Appetizers are great and the drinks are well made. Definitely…read morenot good for a large party size due to restaurant size. 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 !

There are a few tables to the left of the bar, that's where we were seated, and more to the right and there's bar seatings as well We shared all the items ordered and enjoyed it all. 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.

What my mom and I order was well worth the wait. The food was hot, fresh, and very flavorful. I highly recommend the beef noodles and jade dumplings. Another place that will always be on my list for visitors. If you're looking for a quiet/ spacious place this is not the place haha. It is an extremely loud and tight (at least on the weekends), which may not be ideal for wanting to converse with who you came with easily. There is outdoor seating but I'm not sure if that is less crowded, I didn't notice it until it was time to go.

I got the batters favorite and it tasted like noodles in water. It was bland from start to finish. Even adding the Chili oil did not help. The meet was unseasoned, the broth was unseasoned, the drinks were not good. I don't know if it was just an off night or the place has gone down hill. It use to be vibrant and a place you could hang with friends and chill. Now, it was empty and lifeless and this is on a Friday night. Our friends got a mixture of things and one of my friends got the coconut curry ramen with extra chicken and didn't even bother eating the chicken and said the Ramen itself was not worth it. I'm not a fan of trashing restaurants, I truly like to find the beauty somewhere but this place gave my wife food poisoning. Immediately a couple hours later after eating from there, we left around 10pm, she started to violently vomit at midnight and it lasted for a long period. How do we know it was this place.... Her vomit was straight Ramen. So, I say this to say.. eat here at your own risk. Batters Favorite: 0/10.. Just taste like water with Noodles Mango Tango: 0/10... Tasted like mango with no tango.

Street parking was a challenge as others seemed to have the same idea but once I parked across the street everything from there was up. It's pretty spacious with a nice size patio area; it was empty, so I opted to sit at the bar - they have happy hour specials all day every day. I settled for a tequila lemon drop, edamame and the Strike Out ramen with fried chicken. The chicken was seasoned but I felt like I had mostly fat which added a chewy texture so I didnt eat all of it. The ramen itself was good, had a nice spice to it and the lemon drop was strong. The edamame was soft, like they used thawed frozen peas and barely any salt. Overall - this visit satisfied the craving of wanting ramen. I would give it another try especially since it's close by and the all day happy hour is a plus
