I've been to K Pop Ramen twice, and both times I ordered takeout. Overall, it was a good experience, and I can definitely see the potential. The ramen could have used a bit more flavor, but I suspect that may be because I ordered it to go. I think dining in might make a difference, so that is something I plan to try next time.
The ambience was nice. It is a cute, cozy, boutique style spot located in a plaza. That said, it was very cold outside in Dallas when I visited, and the inside of the restaurant also felt quite cold, which was another reason I did not stay to eat. Even so, the space itself felt welcoming, and there seemed to be a steady flow of customers dining in, which is always a good sign.
On my first visit, I ordered the spring rolls and really enjoyed them. On my second visit, I tried a combo that included dumplings, which were not my favorite. The beverages, however, were outstanding both times and easily a 10 out of 10. I also tried the ube frozen macaron, which was absolutely delicious and a standout item.
The first time I visited, my ramen was missing the egg, but when I called, they handled it well and made it right, which I appreciated. Parking was easy both times, another plus.
I also appreciated that they are open late. After a delayed late night flight, this ended up being a great post midnight meal or snack option.
Overall, I felt the value for what you get is solid and fairly priced, especially the combo options. If the pricing were higher, I might have been disappointed, but at this price point, the quality and portions felt appropriate. I am looking forward to coming back to dine in, try the ramen again, and definitely get another ube frozen macaron next time I am in Dallas.
The lemonade was amazing and the dumplings were disappointing for me. I also don't like that they charge you extra for not getting ice in your beverage.
