Yuzu kitchen has great food! They have a large menu. We ordered several items that we all shared but my favorite was the peanut noodles. You are able to make a reservation. The service was a little slow, but not slow enough that it ruined our experience. I will definitely be back! read more

Ordered here for a supper time meal and were very pleasantly surprised! Grubhub delivered fast! My husband got the Mongolian beef with white rice, bok choy and mixed protein, he said it was fantastic....flavorful, spicy and he had enough for leftovers the next day that still tasted delicious! I had the Lala fried rice with chicken and wow it was phenomenal! Very tender chicken, spiced just right! I wish we had a place like this near our home but it definitely is a go to place when we are in the Pittsburgh area! read more

This is literally the best meal I've ever had in my entire life. Actually life changing. I'll never be the same after having this incredible bowl of soul feeding goodness. An actual 10/10 no food will ever be better than this. I didn't like ramen before today but I have been converted. I will fly to Pittsburgh every weekend just to have this meal. read more

I decided to on Yuzu for lunch today. I had gotten take out before but decided to escape the office for a bit and treat myself. Excellent service from the get go. I stuck with (the room temperature) water and ordered fried udon. It came out pretty fast! Which was great because at that point I wanted to leave. The music choice is terrible. I hear myself and yes, I know I sound like an old lady lol. But hearing loud club music with obscenities during my lunch hour just isn't my thing. I asked for a box and my check after about 3 (delicious !!) bites. Going forward I will continue to just use the takeout option. read more

Takoyaki was amazing!!! Cocktails delish. Ambiance is swank. Doesn't fit the outside neighborhood in a good way. The service could have been a bit more attentive. read more

I came here for a friends birthday dinner. We made a reservation prior and was seated immediately. Upon arrival, our table was nicely cleaned and QR code was provided to view the menu on our phones. The waitress was very helpful with assisting in recommendations of the menu. She took my food allergy and dietary restrictions seriously and made sure to inform me of which menu option were off limits due to this. She recommended a wonderful bottle of Moscato (I'm still on the search to find) and I ordered the Island Fried Rice; the pineapple made the dish. I typically take left overs with me but that is one dish I did not leave left overs for. 10/10 recommend and will be returning. read more

A place that sells ramen, I was expecting more authentic cuisine. Ordered a spicy wonton which was just boiled wontons with hot chili oil, ordered the sukiyaki beef ramen and it tasted like a beef stir fry poured over soy sauce flavored soup. What kind of ramen has carrots, onions, mushroom, and cabbage. Also it's ramen, not pasta. Noodles are not suppose to be Al dente. Flavors totally off. Worse ramen I've ever had. read more

Updated review: Still hands down the best Ramen around. I would advise against getting the salt and pepper tofu if you are ordering takeout. Last time it was mush. This time it was rock hard. It seems they need to work out the best way to package it. read more

I LOVE ramen and this is no different. I would highly recommend getting a flavor bomb as my ramen was a little bland but my fiancés dish was super flavorful and delicious. Service was quick but they were busy. On a Friday or Saturday reservations would be a good idea. read more

A friend had recommended this place solely for their fried tofu- it was very good- but what took the cake for me was their mocktails!!! I ordered the " please be quiet" , it was superb! ( it's the drink with the little pink umbrella in the picture I attached ) I didn't know what to expect but it was sweet and bubbly. It fit well with the beef ramen. And extra bonus points for how pretty it looked. The employees were sooo friendly and quick as well. Great experience read more

We thought this place had tasty food, especially the potstickers, and were going to give a higher rating than this. But shortly after our meal, we felt some sort of stomach growlings and other TMI feelings. I wouldn't say it was anything bad about their cleanliness; but my guess is that they use the same pan/utensils to cook some food that we're allergic to... read more

I called in for pick up and ordered the sweet garlic chili chicken stir fry. Instead I got a classic stir fry with a small container of the sweet garlic chili on the side. Very odd. I didn't say the words "classic stir fry with a side of sweet garlic chili". Was just disappointed that I came back home and realized I had the wrong dish. Nothing wrong with the classic but it just wasn't what I was expecting. I wanted some heat and garlic! I also didn't want the carrots that it came with. I wanted the veggies the sweet garlic chili came with. We've been here before but first time ordering that. Anyways, loved the chicken fried rice, as always. Also tried the braised chicken ramen this time and that was very good as well. I'll verify before walking out from now on. read more

This place is tucked away downtown. The food was really good and they have several vegetarian and vegan options. Their menu is online and you have to scan a QR code on the table. The ramens are decently sized and filling. read more

Best Thai food in Pittsburgh! Ambience and decor was definitely appealing to the eye! Customer service was also super helpful for our group of 10! Moving down to the food, I ordered the Vegetable Fried rice and told them to add chicken and make it spicy. Again, best fried rice I ever had! Unfortunately could not get a picture of the rice when I was at the restaurant but since we were there for the week, I ordered it again through Uber Eats so picture is from the UE order but promise it tastes better than it looks! Anyone in downtown Pittsburgh must give this place a try! Ordered: July 11, 2022 via Dining In + July 14, 2022 via Uber-Eats read more

I've been wanting to try this spot for a while! I've heard incredible things about their salt and pepper tofu which is so well deserved. It was addicting! The fried chicken bao buns were fantastic as well. My friend tried the spicy seafood ramen which is mild in spice (exactly what she wanted) but unfortunately there weren't any mussels like advertised. My curry noodles were great too! The apps were the stars of the shows in my opinion but everything was great! read more

No. Hostess was rude, and wouldn't seat us on the edge of the restaurant even when there were lots of tables open.

Not ramen noodles. Order previously from here and not a great tasting experiences but decided to give it another try and disappointed once again since they gave me vermicelli noodles not ramen noodles. read more

Quick, warming ramen perfect for the chilly winter season (or any day if you're in the mood). We've gotten only takeout here, but it's always been quick (15 minutes) to make the food. The menu is pretty big, so there are a bunch more options than just ramen. The ramen is tasty and flavorful, and packed well in separate containers for takeout. I've enjoyed the Yuzu Shio though be cautious of its spicy kick. The katsu rice bowl is also delicious with a nice coleslaw to add a fresh component to the dish. read more

Great food, nice casual atmosphere! You get a lot of food, making it well worth the price, not to mention it's delicious!!

The decor and ambiance was super nice with the dim lighting and flower garlands strung about the ceiling. Also, the waitress was super attentive and checked in often! However the ramen was disappointing to me, the broth lacked a lot of flavor and was very salty. Also the noodles were extremely chewy, which I wasn't expecting. The saddest part was the pork slices that I got, which were also 99% fat! My friend got better pieces with less fat, but mine were pure fat!! It was tender and melted in my mouth, but I would have prefer a better cut. It's okay ramen if you've never had really good ramen. read more

If you are looking for stir fried noodles and great drinks this is the place. We had a great meal with great service.

I ordered the Wonton Ramen with a side of the scallion pancakes (not pictured) and I've definitely had much better ramen. The wontons in the ramen were fine but, the noodles were a bit too soft for my tastes and there wasnt even a lot of flavor in the broth. I also asked for the broth to be spicy, but still needed to get a side of chili oil because it just did not have enough spice to it. Additionally, the portion size of the ramen was reasonable (fair for a relatively nicer sit-down restaurant) but our appetizer had the smallest slices of scallion pancakes and only came with a total of 4, which was the part I did not think was reasonable. I'm giving this review a 3 (rather than a 2) because the service was good and the ambience of the place was modern and filled with Cherry Blossom aesthetics but if you're looking for a good taste of ramen, I would not recommend this place unfortunately. read more

Finally tried Yuzu Kitchen after wanting to go for a while! The service was really quick and our waitress was wonderful. I ordered the Green Curry stir fry and my friend ordered the garlic stir fry. We both loved our dishes and it was the perfect portion size for lunch. I'm already craving that green curry again- I will definitely be back soon! read more

I had a good experience the food was good and the service as well. I will say they were playing very loud rap music which kind of ruined the environment of the restaurant. read more

The atmosphere, food and service were amazing! We had a small group. We shared multiple appetizers and each had an entrees. The stir fry was so good and e ugh to take some home. Highly recommended, read more

Went in as a single during lunch time and sat at the bar. I sat there for a good 20 minutes while multiple servers passed by me multiple times, never acknowledging me once (and they weren't busy). Who knows how their food is as I eventually walked out without ever being served as I had to get back to work, but customer service was absolutely terrible. Respecting people and their time is the most basic of services. read more

UPDATE: I had left behind a small cash tip solely for taking time at the table and to let them know I did not forget to tip on my card. Upon checking my credit card statement I find that they left themselves a nice 18% tip on the bill on top of the cash tip. Further solidifying their front house staff as being terrible. 5 stars for food only. The front house staff before we got sat was great, very straight forward on the wait. We ordered some drinks while waiting, which we never got. No big deal. We got sat for the meal and still never had a drink served. No big deal. Our food got served after over an hour. It was great, food itself was exceptional. Server gave us the bill with multiple drinks on the bill which we explained we never received when she gave us timestamped orders and we said we never got them. We asked for a manager who never came to say anything. I never ask for much, I am happy to pay for what I ordered, but I never got what I ordered and was made to feel like a criminal for asking for it be taken off the bill. read more

Patked at a nearby garage and walked a few blocks. We started out with the salt and pepper tofu and the Takoyaki. Everyone liked the tofu including my youngest who doesn't like much. Though if you're only eating the tofu as an appetizer, it can get salty towards the end. My older daughter liked the Takoyaki and there is enough for us all to get one. Oldest daughter got the salmon don rice bowl and thought it wasn't worth the higher price and had too much vegetable. Son and husband got the karaoke curry ramen. My son picked out all the tomatoes. He said the first few bites were amazing but then he got tired of the taste. He's never been a soup or stew person. My youngest and I shared the Shoyu Tare ramen. She ate all the noodles and wanted more. I appreciated the simple Broth and vegetables, not a fan of the long pieces of pork belly and wish I had some scissors. Service was a bit slow. Quick seating since we had a reservation. Great Ambience. We'll definitely be back. read more

I'll make it short. I came for a late lunch and had a good meal at the bar. The General Tso tofu was quite good. The side salad was overdressed. I'd definitely come back for a quick meal. read more

Stopped by here for dinner. Nice looking restaurant on in the inside with plenty of seating and long bar. I sat at the bar and was greeted by a friendly soft spoken bartender. I started with the stir fried bok choy which was very tasty followed by the char siu pork ramen. The ramen was good with plenty of substance in it. I added bean sprouts to my meal for more veggies. It was lighter than traditional ramen in terms of flavor. Overall good. It was a good dining experience. Do recommend if you are looking for ramen in the downtown Pittsburgh area. read more

I was invited to lunch by some coworkers (we work on the Blvd) and was told to pick whatever restaurant I wanted. I used to live in the city, and one place I miss is Yuzu. So that's where we went today! Service was great.. My boss (who just moved to Pittsburgh a year ago) said that the Spicy Miso Ramen was the best meal he's ever had in Pittsburgh. which made me SO happy to know everyone loved my recommendation. I wanted to take a picture of his Ramen, but after the bowl was set down- there was only a few minutes before that bowl was licked clean. For me- I got my favorite... Udon Chicken (pictured). Atmosphere in the restaurant is great, it's decorated with Japanese Cherry blossoms. The vibe is lit. read more

This could be my new favorite spot for ramen. Yuzu has such a cool interior design that gives you amazing vibes of being down town. We ordered take out from here because the restaurant was about to close. We ordered the gyoza appetizer, which came with 6 pieces of gyoza, each individually filled with meat in a light wrapper and served with a delicious serving sauce. For the entrees, we got the Sapporo Miso Ramen, which came with a 30-min egg and some meat. The broth was a chicken and beef based broth that was super rich in flavor, and made the experience amazing. The other ramen we tried was the braised chicken ramen, which was served with a tender piece of chicken and a 30-min egg. This ramen was also super delicious, and it was difficult to determine which was better. If you like sweeter ramen, then the braised chicken ramen would definitely be the one I'd go with. All in all, Yuzu is definitely an amazing spot for Ramen in Pittsburgh, and one winery I will quickly become a frequent customer. read more

I've gotten takeout from Yuzu Kitchen in the past but this past weekend was my first time dining in the restaurant. I made a reservation for our party of 5 ahead of time and we were seated right away. The interior of the restaurant is really cute and has a nice bar as well. To start, I ordered the crispy chicken bao buns and the last night in tijuana to drink. Both my appetizer and drink were very good. I got the mongolian tofu with white rice as my main dish, and I absolutely loved it! The sauce was so good and had a nice kick to it. The servers also gave us chili oil in case we wanted to add more spice ourselves. Overall, our group had a lovely experience here and we all loved the food! read more

I stopped in for lunch today. It was my first visit to Yuzu. I have probably walked past the place 50 times. It doesn't stand out from the curb, but I'm glad I decided to try it. I had the Karaage chicken. The coconut curry broth had an amazing, deep flavor. The combo of Japanese fried chicken, tomato, chives, and kale was fantastic. I will definitely go back soon. read more

I went back and got the pork belly ramen this time and I had to revisit my review to knock a star off. This pork belly was done all wrong. It was grey, and cut somewhere between thin sliced bacon and thick sliced bacon. Screaming from the roof, "pork belly is not 1 for 1 equal to bacon!". Wildly disappointing. Luckily, their broth still was very good and the noodles were cooked perfectly as well. read more

Currently, this restaurant is take out only. I had the braised chicken ramen. The chicken was overly braised and salty. So was the egg, although it was cooked perfectly. The broth is decent. The noodle itself was ok. The bok choy was great and fresh. The takeout package is great. Easy to pour the broth in the ramen. read more
