Use "the spot" app for online orders. Make sure to pick the correct location before ordering. There is a " The Spot Food Hall" in Rockville, MD. They have signs telling customers to use the kiosk. Special orders are handled at the register. Here are the 4 dishes that were ordered: 1) The Seaweed Salad had a well-balanced flavor of sugar, salt, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. The texture was slightly crunchy, which was just right. My wife and I enjoyed it. Soy sauce instead of salt would make this more flavorful and better tasting. 2) The Fried Pork Roll sushi had crispy pork and avocado with a bit of spicy mayo between them. They were wrapped in 2 layers of nori and rice. The pork was a little dry and slightly chewy. It had a good fried flavor. It reminded me of tempura pork. They had wasabi in packets. You have to request it. Overall, this sushi was good tasting, especially when a little wasabi and soy sauce were added. 3) The Tan Tan Men noodle dish had spicy sesame flavored soup with fish cakes, boiled egg, scallions, corn, bamboo shoots, and roasted seaweed. You get a choice of spicy ground meat, chicken thigh, or chashu pork. We chose chashu pork. The noodle choices are ramen or udon. We chose ramen noodles. The broth was moderately spicy and nicely balanced in flavor. It had flavors of soy sauce, sesame, sugar, rice vinegar, chicken broth, and red chile. Everything was cooked well. Chashu pork is pork belly braised in a sweet soy sauce based broth. It was tender and somewhat moist. My only complaint is that it had only 4 pieces of pork. 4) Their poké bowl menu had a good variety of choices. 5 bases (rice, noodles, or salad), 13 mix-ins, 14 proteins, 8 sauces, and 6 toppings. All proteins cost extra. We got the Seared Salmon bowl with all the mix-ins except jalapeños, pickled ginger, and pineapple. We chose roasted sesame sauce and wasabi yuzu sauce. We got all 6 toppings.They were fried onions, fried garlic, sesame seed, furikake, bonito flakes, and shredded seaweed. We went home and poured everything into a large bowl and thoroughly mixed it. It was incredibly flavorful and a harmonious blend of umami flavors. The seared salmon was moist and tender with a decent flavor (no grill flavor, though). There wasn't a lot of salmon. This was a lot of food and worth the price. It can get pricey if you put a lot of protein in it. FYI: furikake is a dry condiment that typically consists of a mixture of dried fish, sesame seeds, chopped seaweed, sugar, salt, and monosodium glutamate. Bonito flakes are smoked, fermented, and dried fish fillets that are shaved into thin flakes. The service was polite, relatively quick, and patient. The restrooms and dining room were clean. Seating is plentiful because they're in a food court. There's no outdoor seating. They're located in a shopping center called Restaurant Row Apollo. Parking is plentiful and free. This eatery is in an upper middle class area and is easy to access. There are 5 other eateries in the food hall. But, if you're in the mood for Japanese food, then this is the place. Their sushi was typical, but the bowl and ramen were good. Those are the dishes I would recommend.

I'd also order the spring rolls again, they were perfectly crispy. All my food was properly packaged and arrived hot to me!

We ordered the Spicy Miso with the spice bomb and egg, along with the veggie ramen with spice bomb. The Spicy Miso was the clear winner--easily one of the most flavorful ramen bowls I've had, with just the right kick and incredible depth. The veggie ramen was also excellent and a great option for vegetarians. We also tried the gyoza, spring rolls, and Sapporo beer. For dessert, we ordered the black sesame ice cream, but the ramen portions were so generous that we were too full to finish it! Service was quick, attentive, and efficient. The atmosphere is exactly what you'd want from a Japanese ramen spot--casual, lively, and unassuming. The food felt authentic and the flavors really stood out. They also have an izakaya upstairs, which we unfortunately didn't get a chance to try. Definitely saving that for the next visit!

Although we didn't get there when they have their busiest time like Friday or Saturday night but we were seated immediately service was great prices reasonable. The Menu isn't vast (this is not a Cheesecake Factory) and I didn't see any issues with anything we ordered. Cocktails were superb even without Pork Belly Garnish on my Monster.

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.

The graphic design of the menu is also really cool. This restaurant is a vibe. The music is soooo good here. Upstairs/inside had punk rock and downstairs/outside had R&B.

If you want to sit in their outside covered patio, you'll continue past the bathrooms and down some more stairs. They have gender neutral single stall restrooms here. We came here after the US v.

Their solution was a QR code ordering system. My cell service was dubious but they do have free wifi, so that helps. There was some waiting, but I was able to get out inside of an hour when most businesses in the area were slammed, so not a terrible service outcome. They offer a generally Szechuan style of cuisine, and I had not seen the yu xiang preparation offered for tofu before so I took the chance to try something new. The flavor was a little sweeter than I'd expected for the cuisine, but there were ample fermented beans that showed that proper ingredients were used in the sauce, and the savory element grew on me. I prefer my Szechuan cuisine to be mouth-meltingly spicy, but I could see why this dish appeals to people. My tea was quite strong-I would go so far as to say overbrewed-but to me it wasn't a huge bother as it provided a useful flavor contrast. The vegetarian selection had other things that I think would be worth trying.

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.
