I didn't take photos of my food. But here's the proof that I was there.
Lou C.

I wasn't gonna write a review at Zake Sushi & Ramen because I was just a passerby. But since I posted my experience on Dining Rewards website, I decided to write something on Yelp. Right. I didn't check in nor take photos. That was all because me and my out-of-town friend had to move the table because his passion fruit iced tea spilled all over. As he tried to stick the straw into the sealed cup, the cup busted open and the tea flown everywhere including his jeans. But why put your drink in a sealed cup like boba tea joints? We were dine in customers. We ordered bento boxes. His was steak teriyaki and mine was chicken teriyaki. It was his first time eating Japanese food. So, he had nothing to complain about. He said it was tasty. But me on the other hand, I was not happy. Far from being authentic Japanese food. The egg roll doesn't belong to bento box. Salad dressing was bland. Chicken teriyaki lacking flavor, too. Steamed rice was dry and definitely not Japanese rice. California rolls were only tasty one for me. Not sure why the gyoza dry and cold. The reason I chose Zake was because we came from the moon festival at Katy Mills and decided to get some real food at Katy Asian Town. We got here at 8:45 pm. All other restaurants were closing soon or already closed. Ugh. Not making the same mistake again. Next time, we'll just go eat at Jack in the Box.

My kid loves this place. He's been begging for Ramen (real ramen). So we stopped in here. He got his ramen which was 2 meals worth - and said it was the best thing he's ever eaten.

Korean BBQ donburi

Veggies were not fresh even the kimchi tasted weird. We ordered rolls but no wasabi nor ginger were provided. Soy sauce bottle was super sticky. We ordered Shiaolongbao but it never came.

Thank you for bringing Shanghai ShengJian back to Katy after Jin Yuan folded. You guys are now my go-to location for food. On top of all the wonderful and authentic Shanghai street food, your Ramen is also wonderful.

We got the Tiger eyes sushi roll with miso ramen and the soup dumplings

The service was amazing even though they were busy, and the food came out really fast!! The atmosphere was calm and friendly which made us enjoy our food 10x more.

I came here back in July when I was in the area checking out Katy Asia Town with my boyfriend and we both were hungry. With it being so hot in Texas, we decided to look for something light and cool and Sushi sounded perfect! When We came in, we were greeted with a host and he escorted us to a booth on the side of the restaurant and provided us menus. A waitress came by about 10 minutes later to ask what we'd like to drink and if we were ready to order. We decided to order some edamame and calamari first as an appetizer. Once we finished our appetizers, the waitress came back and asked if we were ready to place our entree order and we both ordered some rolls and handrolls. Once the sushi came out, it looked really good and I also asked her for water refill because my water cup was empty but she never came by. We actually couldn't find her on the floor where we were sitting but we saw one other server walking around. Finally when a gentleman (maybe manager) came by to see how we were doing, I asked him for water and the bill which he told the waitress we were ready for our bill and she brought it over. Overall the food was good, service could have been alittle better with the lack of checking up on our table but not sure if the waitress was maybe in the middle of something? They weren't busy so I can't say she had a ton of tables when there were only 4 others and someone was already taking care of people at the bar.

I wish I could give this spot a 2.5 because it really was middle of the road for me but it felt more honest to round down rather than up. I came here after a volleyball game with my friends, so it was around 10 PM. There were six of us and they sat us behind a white barrier wall that sort of separated us from the rest of the restaurant . It definitely felt like they forgot about us because they never came around to our table and we had to repeatedly go up to the counter to ask for water refills. They also didn't bring out two of our meals for 40+ minutes after we ordered, and we had to ask where they were for them to be brought out to us. That being said, I enjoyed the food we got. I got the Houston roll and it was delicious. I also really liked the spicy edamame. I also got the black garlic ramen and enjoyed it but my friend got the tonkotsu ramen and said it was super bland.

Strawberry and mango lemonade  Bottled lemonade for a kid

I was in the mood for ramen and wanted to grab food in the area since we have not since moving. Upon walking in we were greeted and the hostess said "Hi can I help you" my sister looked confused and said "yes we want to eat". From behind I said a table for 3. Saying this because I thought is was funny, but also says certain greetings are not always correct. Our waitress was nice, but you could tell she wanted you to know what you want, get in and get out. My sister and I ordered lemonade one strawberry and one mango those were the highlight of our meal. Our sushi was fine and main dishes as well. I ordered ramen as that is why we went. The seafood ramen was ok, but could have used a bit more flavor in the broth and my shrimp was over cooked. My sister said her teriyaki chicken bowl was lacking in flavor as well. My niece got the kids veggie rice to which she had us pick out all the veggies since they were bok choy, cabbage, and green onions. She had one carrot and was excited about the carrot until she ate it and did not like it at all. Once we picked out all the veggies she did eat the rice. One cool thing is they give you the plastic piece for kids to use chopsticks. All in all we will not be back, but glad we tried.

Definitely nothing special about this sushi spot in Katy Asian town. Out of everything I ordered, the calamari tasted the best. The sushi tasted below average and was not even close to my expectations. Price was above $16 per roll, so I was expecting some better quality. Place wasn't busy at all, service was pretty slow but the guy was nice. I don't think I'd be coming back here. There is so many better options in the same complex.

Shanika H.

The service was decent. They gave part of our order to another table but made another fairly quick. Decor was average, nothing over the top. I came middle of the day with my family. They weren't very busy. The food was just mediocre. Everything came out cold. I ordered Korean BBQ. I was expecting the typical asian teriyaki type blended sauce, but nope they but regular barbecue sauce on it which seemed a bit weird. The sushi was decent. I'd come back again but really only to try their ramen.

The service is really good and the food is delicious and you're able to adjust your spice level. All you want. My boyfriend really likes the udon noodles and we are grateful.

Food is always good, our waitress Misa was attentive and accommodating to our request.read more

1. Service - our waitress was amazing. She was friendly, and she was always there to make sure we…read morewere doing ok. I'm proud that they have servers of this caliber at Asian restaurants in Houston, TX. Usually you see professional servers at upscale restaurants. There was a busboy there towards the end, and even he was super professional. Whoever the manager is at this location, you guys are doing an outstanding job training the staff here. Keep up the good work! 2. Price - about $15/bowl. 3. Ambiance - The decor here is beautiful. There are natural lighting from the front, with wood panels everywhere, lanterns hung high. They did a nice job decorating the place and you definitely feel as if you're in Japan somewhere. 4. Food - This is where this place shines compare to all the ramen places in Houston. They have the option of low sodium broth. I took one sip, and it felt like home cooked Ramen. I'm not talking about instant ramen that you buy from the store, but the ramen made from scratch. I often go to ramen places in Houston and I dread going because I know how salty they taste. There are 2 other locations I have in mind in Houston that are also my favorites. But I would say this is not bad compared to the bowl of ramen I had in Narita, Japan. If you're wondering what I've ordered, it was the CHICKEN RICH RAMEN and make sure to request for low sodium. 5. Cleanliness - Dining area is well kept, clean, and the busboy is on top of things. The restroom is questionable. The personal restroom doors are hard to close and lock. For management, have a look at the restrooms and see if you can improve things. SUMMARY: I would definitely come back. It is just THAT GOOD!

Did a spontaneous run over here but left disappointed…read more It was Thursday late afternoon, and it wasn't busy at all with plenty of seats left. Despite that, we felt like we were being rushed out. The server could clearly see we were opening gifts, so it's not like we were just sitting there doing nothing. Again, the restaurant wasn't busy. I thought it was pretty rude that he interrupted us to ask if we were ready for the check literally a minute after we finished eating. Then, as soon as we placed our cards down, he immediately grabbed the tab off the table. He also never checked in to see if everything was okay or if we were enjoying the food while we were eating, so it definitely rubbed me the wrong way when it felt like we were essentially being kicked out. As for the ramen, it wasn't as flavorful as I remembered. It felt like it was missing both spice and seasoning. It wasn't horrible by any means, but between the lackluster food and the customer service, I don't think I'll be returning.
