Tiger Ramen

Great food and great service. Jenifer was our server and she did a great job. Also Hiroku helped and had great service. If you help them out and post on social media they give you $3 off next time you come in. Very smart move.

Excellent! We walked in and were greeted with lovely service. The staff was tentative and kind. The ambiance truly resembled a ramen shop from Japan! The staff are Japanese as well. The overall experience felt like home. Now to the good part... the food. What a cultivation of lovely traditional flavors. Onigiris tasted just like mom's but with a special twist! The karaage was perfect and the yuzu sauce was the best!! The fish in the hand-rolls were fresh and the topping paired nicely. Ramen was a delight. The owner study traditional ramen technique in Japan. I cannot recommend this place enough! I saw lots of take out orders too, so that is a nice option if you don't want to dine-in. **| do want to note that it can be a little bit difficult to get to but it is truly a hidden gem.

OMG!!!! SOOOOO GOOD! THE VEGETARIAN PAITAN WAS SOOOOO GOOD! I am vegetarian and they had so many good vegetarian options! The seating was comfy and the service was GREAT! I was in a sad mood but this made me feel 10x better. No joke 10/10 would recommend and one of my favorite dfw ramen places! AND THE EGG OMGGGGG SO GOOD!

Absolutely fantastic chicken-based ramen! I ordered the lunch set with the mini paitan ramen and the onigiri of the day, tsukune onigiri. Both dishes were top notch. The paitan is very authentic, rich, and flavorful; better than most ramen I've had in Japan. There aren't many places around DFW that put serious thought into their onigiri, but Tiger Ramen is definitely the exception, as the onigiri has a wonderful and unique combination of flavors. Service is very quick, attentive and friendly as well. Overall, Tiger Ramen is now tied for my top two ramen places in all of DFW. I hope to return to this lovely family-owned business for many years to come.

Another great meal. I had the Mazemen, non-soup and spicy mixed noodle. It was delicious. I noticed new menu items, including vegetarian options. — Visited during the soft opening and tried one of the most delicious Chicken Paitan ramen (Chicken Tonkotsu) I’ve had. The broth was rich, silky, and packed with umami, coating your mouth with flavor that lingers. They also offer lighter broths, and the noodles were cooked to perfection. We also had the onigiri. I’ve never tried a fresh one before—usually, I grab them to-go—but this one came with warm rice and flavorful fillings. It was both delicious and beautifully presented. I really appreciate their effort in putting together a quality kid’s meal: juicy, crispy karaage, fries, seasoned and plain rice, plus a drink. My kid devoured it! So refreshing not to see the usual frozen chicken nuggets or grilled cheese. The service was top-notch, and the decor is a bright blend of contemporary and classic elements. Most importantly, it was casual and comfortable.

Authentic Japanese Ramen and service. If you know Japan service this is the spot. Excellent flavor profile each dish.

Cute place to have a flavorsome Ramen noodles. Had lunch today with family and was worth the drive. Ordered Takoyaki for appetizer, then a Miso and Chintan Ramen. Owners/server were nice. Enjoyed it and will be back, definitely next time (",)

Great spot for a tasty, quick & easy meal. Service is also friendly and prompt. Ambiance is casual but has fun hints of Japan. For the ramen, we've had the paitan, spicy paitan, and tsukemen so far. All are great for both the noodle texture and the broth. The salmon and yellowtail handrolls are also great.

Food = Excellent menu choices Service Friendly, pleasant, great.. Atmosphere Like you are in Japan.

I finally found good ramen in DFW! & I am so happy that this gem is near my work and home! The ramen here compares to what I've had in Japan. I loved the entire space, staff, and of course the amazing food and drinks. Support this wonderful business!! And take a temporary culinary trip to Japan. You will leave here satisfied. No doubt I am going to be a "regular" at Tiger Ramen.

Stopped in for a quick bite to check this place out. What a fun experience and great ramen and hand rolls. Sit at the bar watch them make everything to order. I 100% recommend stopping by, I will now become a regular!

Happened to stop in today on their grand opening day! We tried their full-ramen set and weren't disappointed. We picked the paitan and the onigiri of the day was the salmon onigiri. The paitan was flavorful - nitamago (egg) had a very distinct flavor, menma (bamboo shoot) was definitely very strong - but the fatty bits in the broth stole the show. The salmon onigiri was a bit dry but the rice and seaweed was on point. Place was a bit small, but staff were incredibly friendly! Will be returning!

A tiny Japanese ramen place that reminds me of Japan. I am in love with spicy miso ramen follow by Takoyaki. This place is not for a big gathering type, it's more for couple & small party. Everyone is friendly and helpful. I would highly definitely recommend Tiger ramen for the ramen lover.

Wow, just had an amazing tsukemen here yesterday. The noodles were very good and the broth was rich and flavorful. I've been to Japan multiple times and I'm very picky of Japanese restaurants in the US - this one is legit. Also, staff speaks Japanese so you know it's the right place.

Great ramen from a spot that just opened up in Mckinney. I got the spicy Ramen and they weren't lying it is spicy! But, I loved it. Broth was rich and flavorful, perfect as is. I do wish they offered more topics without extra charges as the bowl, as is, had minimal topics when its price comparable to those who offer many more toppings. The hand roll was good too, fresh, delicious. Very friendly staff.

This place is so good!! By far our favorite ramen place in McKinney. We've gone about four times since it opened and it's just as good whether you eat there or take it to go! Highly recommended!!

The Paitan has the best broth in DFW. Great customer service as well. Would love to see tsukemen on the menu!

This place is bomb!!!!it is sooo good the ramen is delicious! The broth is sooo gooood!!! The service was quick and good, very attentive! Super super good! Will be coming back plenty of times new favorite stop to eat.

Great new Ramen and Sushi joint at the McKinney/Frisco border... Restaurant decor is really cool, like you are stepping into a small restaurant in Shinjuku! The ramen was excellent, I really enjoyed the spiciness of the broth. Price for the serving size was on par. Service was great and the wait staff were super attentive. Will be back!!!

We have high expectation on this place due to the good reviews. First visit today and really don't know where is the good reviews come from. 1. Never had such a disgusting ramen. I ordered the tonkotsu ramen (what they called Paitan). The soup is worse than the instant noodles from the grocery. There is only salty flavor. No pork bone flavor. Surprised to find a lot of little pieces of fat residues in the broth. They obviously did not even use pork bone. But something frozen and ready made but add pork lard to try to add some flavor. It's not ramen broth at all. Very disgusting! The cha siu is very thin and fatty. The ramen portion is small. 2. My hubby does not want pork and prefer chicken. They told him to order chintan. From the menu and the waitress, this is supposed to have no pork but chicken broth only. But ended up the broth has a bunch of pork residue as well. He was trying to be nice and did not return it. They do not have any option for chicken ramen. This option comes with cha siu 3. It was before 1pm on Sat but they were out of chicken kraage already. 4. The host was rude. She asked us if everything is ok and we told her about the issue. She has no response on the broth issue. Every customers were offered lucky draw but she did not offer us just because we were honest to give her feedback. If she doesn't want to know then why ask us? We are just not the American who would just pay high price for everything even with low quality. The only good thing is fried geso but it's nearly $10 for 4 little pieces only. There are many places much better quality and better value for money. I would rather cook instant noodles at home than give business to this place

First and foremost, this spot is new so there are limited reviews which we checked out before heading to this spot. Don't let that deceive you, this is a must try! We moved to McKinney in June and couldn't wait for them to open. WELL WORTH THE WAIT!! The food was delicious, spot is extremely clean and tucked away in an assuming spot. To kick off our meal we had the seaweed salad which is light and fresh. Karage was a delicious well flavored starter as well! We had the Miso Spicy Ramen with seared Pork Chashu and Paitan with Chashu which was so delicious. Both broths were well flavored and the servings were hearty for sure! They also were able to accommodate my allergy to spicy foods which was incredible! More than just the food, the service was top tier. Everyone was so attentive and it felt family owned. We will definitely be back and love that this gem has been added so close to home!

We tried the Karaage, Hamachi hand roll, Spicy ramen, and Niboshi ramen and they were all very delicious! The restaurant was very clean as well!

Real Ramen! Great service, food and welcoming atmosphere. I really enjoyed the Paitan.

My family and I ordered many things and it was all delicious! We went during their soft opening so there were some food items that weren't available yet, but the menu looked great! I myself had the Miso Ramen and the bowl was much bigger than I was expecting! For $16.99, I'd say it was well worth it! Definitely will be back!

After traveling to Tokyo was craving authentic Onigiri (rice balls). This is the place to find them'

Just tried this place out and I do have to say my ramen was very tasty!!! The pork was cooked perfectly and not fatty at all which I highly appreciate! The hostess took my to-go order and she was very kind and helpful. My only grievance is that it is a bit pricier than most ramen joints in the McKinney/DFW area. $2.99 to add an extra egg.. and $16/$17 for the ramen. After tax it was $22. Not bad but it should be under $20 easily for all of that. Even with inflation the last few years. I feel they would get more frequent regulars if they just lower price a tad. Needless to say, nice looking menu, nice folks, and my ramen was delicious.

Very authentic! We enjoyed the soup very much. the onigiri was good too! Def rec to anybody who likes ramen!

We went on opening night and just returned for a second time. The spicy miso ramen is amazing and so is the gyoza! We also enjoyed the edamame and green tea. My husband and I will definitely use this place as our go to ramen place! The staff has been super friendly both times and it's always super clean!

Best ramen we've had in this area by far!! We used to live in NYC and no ramen has compared to what we could find in the city. This one hit the mark for sure! We ordered the Paitan chicken tonkotsu, Chintan chicken clear broth and the Niboshi ramen. All three broths (and noodles) were incredible!!! Deep clean flavors. We also had the fried calamari legs and a yellowtail hand roll. This place is a must try!! Best ramen in the area.. that we've found anyway

very convenient location going north on Custer after Silverado. Enter at the side facing away from Custer. Not a big place and in that sense very Japanese. Staff was excellent and their ramen and broth were tasty and rich. They convinced us to consider ramen more often for lunch.

Average ramen, small portion, salty broth, and way over-priced. I paid $16 for an average bowl of ramen that was very skimpy on ingredients other than the noodles. The $7 tiger ramen ball of rice was also just average. My lunch bill was $24.88. I was very disappointed and won't be back. They likely won't make it because it's way overpriced for an average quality bowl. Disappointing and won't return.
