Vegan Ramen
Hope S.

OMG! This place is sooo good! This is my second time here and as with the first time, everything was on point! I discovered this intimate establishment a few months ago, after using YELP to find nearby ramen. I have frequented other stores/restaurants in this shopping area and never knew this gem existed. I was warmly greeted and seated right away. The staff is friendly and efficient. I ordered the asparagus salad, seafood ramen and a large Passion Land fruit tea. The food is fresh, tasty and delicious. Large portions and presented well. If you love ramen and appreciate good wait service, plan a visit. Or just follow your craving here, as I did. Thank me later.....

Such a cutesie dining experience, nothing too fancy but also pretty cool atmosphere. The food was good in terms of flavor, we ordered the chicken ramen ! The presentation and portion size was also pretty satisfying. Additionally, the service was super fast and attentive. Altogether, the combination of ambiance, food quality, and service made this a good visit, we do appreciate that they are open until late!

Tonkotsu Ramen lunch special with Takoyaki, extra egg, and shrimp tempura
Sherry C.

This was my second time trying Yayoi Ramen and honestly, it was satisfying. It was cold today and I just got over being sick a week ago so it was nice being able to have ramen with hearty broth. There's a parking lot that is shared with other businesses. My friend and I both ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen from the lunch special for $16.95. It's a great value for what it came with, an appetizer and a drink. I went with the takoyaki (3 pieces) and iced peach oolong tea. I was being extra and ordered more than what my stomach can handle (I was hungry). I ordered an extra egg and an order of shrimp tempura. I don't recommend doing this unless you can eat more than the average person. The bowl of ramen has a generous portion size! The service is quick and they served our food quickly. The restaurant can be a bit noisy with the kitchen staff talking (they were very loud) but I didn't mind it. They looked like they got along with each other. The restaurant is clean.

Spicy build your own ramen
SaraJane D.

My daughters love this Ramen spot because they have a build your own ramen menu selection. They can build the type of ramen they like from the soup base, type of noodle and toppings. They have a good selection of apps and entrees along with boba and fruit tea drink selections. It's a solid ramen spot with a decent amount of seating. It tends to get busier during Friday nights and weekends but the wait is never really long. The scallion pancakes are a fave especially because of the dipping sauce it comes with which is a type of soy vinegar.

Amazing! This spot is very cute! It's our second time here and it didn't disappoint. The staff here is super friendly and very attention their customers. We had the ramen of course and the broth was delicious! Drinks wise, we did a pot of tea which was great. Must have the desert!! Overall, great ramen spot! Will be back!

While I can see why many people give this place a 4 if you can serve me vegetarian ramen past 10PM and take an order before closing while having it be exceptionally good I am impressed. Vegan ramen packed with veggies, super delicious. I can not recommend enough would def want to eat there in person to get the full experience!

Came here for lunch. The staff was friendly. Restaurant was clean and decent seating. Okay for large groups but i would call in advance. We love how they have a build your own ramen. The spicy tonkatsu was pretty spicy. The curry was good. Very generous amount of curry. The chicken was a little dry but not too bad. The karrage chicken was giant pieces of dark meat. The pork buns were good. The pork was tender. We order two drinks and they were okay. Very sweet

Agedashi tofu
Chelsia T.

A humble ramen place at the quiet side of the mall. The interior is clean and bright. The servers are very attentive. The price of the dishes is very reasonable. However, the food we ordered were not as we expected. We ordered the agedashi tofu, chicken paitan ramen and shrimp tempura ramen. The tofu's batter was too thick so it is quite hard and hot. The broth of the Paitan was not very flavorful and rich enough. The grilled chicken tasted good and juicy but not the usual chicken you would see on ramen. The tempura batter was thick too.

Agadeshi Tofu
Calvin K.

I visited this restaurant after gym with my wife, and yes I craved for fried Japanese food all of a sudden. This is a restaurant satisfied my craving. First of all, the price of the food here seems 50 cents to 75 cents less expensive than typical ramen place in Queens, NY. It made me feel more satisfied. Thank You. Let's talk about food. We ordered the Agadeshi Tofu as appetizer and Tempura Udon (told ya I was craving for fried Japanese food). They are all satisfying but not to a full extended. Let me quote from a 5-stars Hotel Chef friend, it is the harmony between ingredients that makes a good dish. I would say the batter of both the Tofu and Tempura seems a little bit too thick. It made the sauce and noodle soup don't stay on the tofu and the tempura. They are perfectly fried, but would be better if they are not shining on its own. My wife ordered this Chicken Paitan Ramen. I tried a little bit of the broth. It is light and clear if you like the broth to be not so thick or salty. Regarding to the Ambiance, It kind of reminded me Kyuramen in Queens. What is better is they sell Alcohol, woohoo . It can easily be turned into a little party place with friends. My suggestion is, adding a list of izakaya food on the menu would attract another group of customer. Overall 85 out of 100 I like its instant satisfaction of craving. Calvin

Food was really good. I would definitely go back. I do like the selections that they have of Ramen and you can also build your own. I also really liked our Bao buns.

Tofu Teriyaki Donburi

If you're looking for some different Japanese flavors this place is the one. We come here for ramen, Japanese curry, fried chicken, and other favorites. The service here is quick and everything that comes out to the table is fresh. The place is a cute restaurant and gets really busy really quick.

The stir-fried veggies which were seasoned well

On our way home from a day in the City, we all decided we wanted ramen. Having been here before, my…read moredaughter wanted us to experience really good ramen. Her recommendation did not disappoint. When we arrived at 8:30 pm, we were very surprised by how busy it was for a late Thursday evening. Upon arrival, we were happily greeted and asked to wait outside as our table was not quite ready yet. The restaurant itself is quite cozy with limited seating especially for our party of 5. When we stepped outside, we found a nice bench to sit while we waited. We did not have to wait long at all. After we ordered, our food arrived shortly thereafter. Four of us ordered the BLACK GARLIC TONKOTSU RAMEN (Pork broth, chashu, kikurage, scallion, ajitama, black garlic oil). One person in our party ordered SAKE DON (Salmon, salmon roe over sushi rice). Hands down, the ramen was one of the best I've ever had. It was so fresh, delicate and delicious. Everyone in our party was completely satisfied. We will be back!

I ordered the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen, and it did not disappoint! The broth was deep, rich, and incredibly flavorful, while the noodles had that perfect bite to them. Everything was well-balanced and just delicious. We also ordered the fried chicken appetizer, which was perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and not overdone. Definitely recommend it! The restaurant has a cute Japanese aesthetic with anime-style characters on the walls. It was absolutely packed on a Sunday afternoon. You sign up for the waitlist through an iPad, and I waited about 15 minutes. Overall, fantastic ramen, great atmosphere, and well worth the wait. I can't wait to come back when it is less packed.

Koiso truly exceeded all my expectations. I was expecting an overpriced, decent sushi restaurant in…read morethe middle of Carle Place, but was blown away by an authentic, Japanese-run local gem. The owners seem to know all of their regulars here, and made time to stop by each table to greet customers. The menu here is fairly extensive with different sushi/sashimi combinations. Great for groups, and for really reasonable prices too. We ordered two mystery boxes ($55? or $50? for the premium, and about $35 for the regular) and two sushi/sashimi omakase dinners. Everything was DELIGHTFUL. I usually find one or two pieces that I'm not the greatest fan of, and that was the case here too with a torched piece (not sure what it was). The other fish was great though - they don't skimp on portions & the rice is well seasoned. The interior of the restaurant is a bit dated, but doesn't take away from the food. Will definitely be back! Parking was fairly easy in the neighborhood.

I wonder what made them to treat a customer with careless service. I used to love this place as my favorite Japanese restaurant but not anymore. One simple careless service made me this place was not good enough to take care of customer. I gave them one star and make them to wake up unconcerned business mind.
