Night Market Noodle

Best ramen in town. The burnt garlic ramen was full of umami goodness with a silky, rich texture. Mini side dishes: kimchi and fermented mustard green, with their sharp flavors, provided a great contrast by cutting through the fat of the broth. Adding to the appeal is the chill vibe that’s rare in a bustling city. Definitely would go back!

Food and service is EXCELLENT! There is No Words can described it. My husband had noodle soup "Seafood Jjambbong" so rich seafood broth lots of seafood,the noodle is so special could not find anywhere in the past. I had "Spicy Black" andnsumce I cannot eat so spicy so I asked to put the spice paste separately in a little plate, but it is so tasty and at the end I had to put them all in soup noodle , who cares, Ir is so good ...I just ate them all while sipping cold water. So SATISFYING. We will come back to try more !!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! By the way the atmosphere is so classy and relaxing. The wooden background and the warm yellow light enhance the elegance of the restaurant. The AC is so good...it helps when we eat spicy hot food. 🥰

The lunch special is actually very good for a student on a budget. Try the chicken tori nanban, sauce is soo good!! Broth is flavorful, noodles were enough for myself and I came out so happy and full after a long day on campus. I had the hakata tonkatsu and it was perfect 😀

I arrived before my friend did & the atmosphere was VERY chill. Only one lady was working the register/serving, which was fine, I didn’t wait very long. She was super sweet throughout our entire service & I wish I remembered her name so I could highlight her here! My friend & I started off with appetizers & those brussel sprouts are SO good & she had never had brussel sprouts before. She ordered another plate after we finished those. The fried gyoza was also good! Just not as good as those brussel sprouts. The Tonkotsu was not as flavorful as I would have liked! I also had to spend $1.50 to make a spicy which I really kinda hate but I do it at other restaurants. I’ll be back to try different ramens for sure & their snack menu is extensive as well. Super affordable, worth the try ultimately. My friend ordered this lychee liquor & it was also pictured in one of the pictures I included!

Great ambience of dark Japanese night stall. Their ramen was amazing and came with appetizers. Would recommend! I had the Black Garlic Tonkatsu

Underrated spot for stellar ramen and sides! One of our top 3 ramen spots that you should check out if you're into great ramen that is matched by excellent and shareable sides at an affordable price. Vibe: Casual wooden izakaya vibe inside, very clean. We came in at around 2pm and there were not many people. Decent size, tables are long and can probably seat medium-sized parties together (6?). Service: very friendly server. She gave great recommendations for our appetizers. Food: Ordered a great deal of ramen + mini appetizer for $13.75. We tried the regular tonkotsu ramen, burnt garlic tonkotsu ramen, chicken gyoza, and Korean yangyum nuggets. Chicken gyoza was just OK. The Korean nuggets were incredibly flavorful and juicy with a tangy sweet/spicy sauce and crunchy coating. Very spicy! The quality of all the ramen ingredients really impressed us. The tonkotsu broth had great savory depth and creamy texture without feeling too heavy or porky/grimy. Flavor was straightforward and clean but subtly complex - reminded me of Ichiran ramen in NYC. The straight noodles were perfectly cooked, al dente and chewy. Burnt garlic oil added some extra savory and aromatic depth. Chashu was great, cut pretty thick, with a hint of smokiness. Still had some chew to it. Woodear mushroom really stood out to me as incredibly fresh with a refreshing, thick, and soft texture that surpasses any other place I've had them. Egg was solid, no marinade or anything, but cooked perfectly and they give you an entire egg (not just a half). 100% recommend these ramen, though we would like to add the spicy paste next time to see if we can get even more layers of complexity and flavor. If you're on the hunt for one of the best ramens in Houston, we definitely recommend coming here! This place is Let's Eat Houston approved ✅️

We came here with our friends to try out this Ramen place. I had the Black Garlic Tonkatsu and while the flavor was good the lack of portion of meat was surprising as other places give a bigger portion at a similar price point so that was a bit disappointing. My spouse had the Shoyo ramen and it was a bit more fishy than he was use to, he ended not enjoying it and did not finish. The Squid app was a bit chewy and could have tasted better. The mini apps with the meals were good and the brussel sprouts were delicious. The service was a little bit iffy. The manager/lady wearing a mask was more obsessed with cleaning our table off than bringing out drinks/refills and even interrupted us in the middle of still eating. She even decided to educate us about splitting the bill and then said they can still do it at the register...like I don't need a whole story about it just do it??? Kind of a weird vibe. There are many ramen places in Houston that are the same or better so we will keep trying them to see which is the best.
