Yoshi Ramen

Yoshi Ramen in Tega Cay, south of Charlotte just might be the answer to the dearth of good Asian food in Charlotte area. The creative beehive setting aside, their food is quite piquant, and what’s more, is quite extensive ranging from rich, slow-simmered broths to the guilty pleasure that is the Korean fried chicken. We’ve tried their ramen—slurping it all in with the right mix of vegetables and meat—makes for a wonderful dining experience. The noodles are house-made and taste quite fresh. The Chicken Fried Rice has been a downer with the chicken in it tasting gummy, but in hindsight we shouldn’t have ordered Chicken Fried Rice in a place that boasts on ramen, so that’s on us. Other savory bites that we’ve tried include Kara-Age chicken(mildly spiced chicken), and Parmesan Truffle Fries(good enough appetizer to share). The drinks also run the gamut from Green Teas to Yuzu to alcoholic drinks if you’re feeling naughty. The servers are quite kind and polite, and despite having to climb the tricky stairs to reach the top of the beehive, they maintain their calm. We appreciated that too. Sufficient parking is available outside, and there’s a restroom in the back on the first floor. Overall, it’s a wonderful ramen spot in the Charlotte area, and I’m chuffed. Keep it up Yoshi Ramen! I’ll be back soon.

The place is so cute! Our server John was so amazing. We allowed him to choose our Ramen for us . He did not disappoint with the spicy garlic ramen! It was delicious! We enjoyed the cozy, cute atmosphere! We will definitely be back to try more things! I would encourage you to support this amazing business!

What a lovely surprise this restaurant was!! We honestly came because I wanted to sit in the honeycomb structure: it was just as cute in person as online. The price point alone is hard to beat, but the quality of food was phenomenal!! We got the agadashi tofu and takoyaki: both 10/10!! I even used the oil from the tofu in my karaage curry ramen bowl because it was so delicious. We live in Southend, but I would absolutely drive back down to eat here again.

Yoshi was such a unique and memorable dining experience! The atmosphere immediately stood out with its creative honeycomb seating, which made the meal feel extra special. The food was absolutely delicious. The shrimp was fried to perfection, crispy and flavorful, and the ramen was rich, comforting, and full of depth. We also tried their house made Yuzu lemonade! Our server, Jon, was incredibly friendly and attentive the entire time, not only with our table but with everyone around him. He made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish. A big shoutout also goes to the young hostess, who noticed us admiring the honeycomb seating and went out of her way to make arrangements so we could sit there, which was such a thoughtful touch! A lot of places may make ramen, but you can’t beat Yoshi’s unique atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Yoshi Ramen is an outstanding spot that checks all the boxes. The dumplings were flavorful and perfectly cooked, the lollipop shrimp was a fun and delicious highlight, and both the ramen and curry were rich, comforting, and full of depth. Service by John was excellent, attentive, friendly, and made the meal even more enjoyable. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, spotless, and creates a welcoming atmosphere. Five stars for amazing food, great service, and a place you’ll definitely want to return to.

This is a welcome addition to Fort Mill, SC. You come to not expect much for restaurants here in the South when you think of Authentic Asian foods, but this place was far above expectations. The vegetable ramen is aithe tic. The egg wasn't as strong as I would hope for, but it was still great because it was actually cooked d to the correct doneness. We had the vegetable rolls and tofu appetizers and they hit so hard! This is definitely a new spot that needs to be visited. The prices are escellent considering the quality you get. The place is immaculate and the decor is inviting and modern. The staff is friendly and helpful with just enough interaction to make the visit welcoming but not overly tiring. Great place to eat!

After two visits we are convinced that Yoshi Ramen is the only place for our date nights! The portions are very good and the flavor is incredible and consistent. The Hakata Tonkatsu ramen is my favorite, and my husband loves the House Spicy Garlic. Our second visit we tried the fried chicken with sriracha honey sauce as our appetizer, and it was so delicious we had the leftovers for breakfast the next morning! The Japanese sodas are very good as well, refreshing and not too sweet. The service is excellent, just attentive enough and so respectful. I think our sever the first visit was John and he was wonderful! The music is super vibey and adds to the atmosphere well. Makes me so happy to hear Nujabes played at an establishment! I could go on! We do not eat out because we’re usually disappointed with the quality of food for the price, but we will be back to Yoshi Ramen as often as we can!

My husband and I had an awesome first experience here especially with our server Jon! He gave amazing recommendations and always made sure we were taken care of! The food was delicious and felt so authentic with a beautiful atmosphere to top it off! 10/10 recommend! And the portions are well worth the price!

Yoshi Ramen was amazing. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out fast. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and the portions were great. Lily (LILI) was a great, great waitress -- super friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed the whole time. She did a great job and really made the experience even better.

Nice little ramen place in the neighborhood We have always done take out Tonkatsu Fried rice It's very good !

Wow what a gem we have here in Fort Mill. I've been twice so far and can't wait to go again - once for dine in and once for carry out. Both times my order was exactly as requested and delicious both times. Last time I had a carry out for 8 and the order was packed perfectly. When I dined in the service was so good I never waited for anything. Seating could be an issue for large parties so call ahead. It's a popular place so expect a wait during peak hours. Theres an online checkin but I think you scan at the restaurant. I'm not sure. I had the spicy garlic the first time, then the Kaaraage curry the second. Portions were large enough for my big belly that I had leftovers both times.

This is one of the hottest spots in town right now. I always see a line and finally went for my birthday. Lunch time was not as crowded and we were seated right away. We even got to sit in one of the honeycomb seats. The ambience is unique and they really were creative with seating in a small space. It made me feel like I was transported. The menu is largely ramen, but there are other Japanese dishes. I ordered gyoza as an appetizer and the spicy garlic chicken ramen as my main dish. Gyoza were good. My ramen was authentic and I honestly could have gone up in spice. I will say it was extremely garlicky, almost too much for me. The pork was tender in the soup, noodles were fresh and spice level was good. I'd like to come back and try more on the menu.

Another 5 star experience! This time with James & Molly celebrating Ben's BIG 40! Everything is just Soooo good! Top tier, service, food, ambience & price. So hard to beat in Tega Cay! This time House Spicy Garlic, level 2! The Goya noodles, pork belly and This time with black & green tea! I wish they had Truvia or Splenda! When I leave I'm already thinking about coming back!!

I stopped by this ramen spot and was seriously impressed with how nice the bowl came out. I got the House Spicy Garlic - The broth had a rich, creamy flavor with just the right amount of spice. I chose spice level 2. The chashu pork was perfectly seared and tender, adding a nice smoky flavor to the bowl. I also ordered the shrimp lollipop as an appetizer, you can tell came out fresh and hot. Service was awesome. I loved the toppings -- corn, green onions, soft-boiled egg, and seaweed -- they all added a great balance of texture and freshness. The noodles had a nice chew, and the broth was hearty. The presentation alone is worth mentioning; The wooden spoon was a nice touch too! Overall, this was a solid, comforting bowl of ramen.

Great food and service! We love the ramen and the shrimp stir-fry. This is a staple for our family and love having a Yoshi Ramem night.

I've been to Yoshi twice now, and overall I really enjoy it here. Like any spot, I've found a few standouts that I'd happily order again--and a couple I'd skip next time. Starters * Gyoza: -- Perfectly crisp with a flavorful filling. A classic done right. * Shrimp Lollipops: -- A must-order. Super crunchy, packed with flavor, and easily one of my favorites. * Kaki Fry (fried oysters): -- Unfortunately a miss for me. They weren't fresh, carried a strong fishy taste, and left a lingering aftertaste. Ramen * Curry Ramen: -- Bold and hearty, but not my personal go-to. Still worth trying if you like curry flavor. * Tokyo Shoyu: -- A lighter, simpler broth. On the bland side, but approachable for beginners. * Hakata Tonkotsu: -- Rich, flavorful, and deeply satisfying. This is my favorite and my go-to bowl. Rice Bowl * Unagi Don: -- A hearty bowl with tender eel. The unagi-to-rice ratio is a bit off (lots of rice to get through), but still very enjoyable if you're hungry. Customer service is alway great and place is very casual. Family and kid friendly. Overall, I'm really glad Yoshi opened in Fort Mill--it saves me a drive for quality ramen. While a couple dishes weren't for me, their hits are strong enough that I'll definitely keep coming back.

Wow! Our family of 4 was so incredibly impressed by our first dining experience at Yoshi Ramen. We decided to give them a try because our teen boys absolutely love ramen, and I saw they had good reviews. The restaurant is super clean, modern, with a cool vibe; but also very casual. Service was attentive and very knowledgeable, providing recommendations that were perfect. We started with the dumplings (steamed) and the truffle fries. Both were incredibly delicious. The fries were HOT in terms of temp and perfect texture and seasoning. For entrees we ordered 2 of the ramen dishes, the shrimp fried rice, shrimp lollipops, and pork belly buns. Portions were HUGE and everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful. We were all blown away and looking forward to our next return!

I returned here with my husband, so he can experience the honeycomb booth dining lol... Well, let me start my saying he absolutely hated the honeycomb booth seating! What was I thinking?? My husband is 6'2"...and he found the booth quite tight and uncomfy. To his credit, it wasn't exactly a comfy experience...but what I had hoped to be a fun one. The honeycomb booths on the top level are quite hot (no A/C up there)...plus no cushion...plus this tilted back. My husband squirmed throughout the meal (see pic lol!). At least he got to experience it for once and for all? Honeycomb booth aside, we loved the foods...as anticipated. My husband tried this Unagi Don...and I just got couple of apps, the Lollipop Shrimp, Garlic Tofu and Pork Belly Buns. Not only were they all delish, they were so nicely presented! Loved the cute Pork Belly Buns Bicycle!! I will say that their drink menu was a bit weak. We both ended up ordered sodas...Green Tea and Ume Soda...which came in cans. A bit disappointed with that. Might have mentioned already, but the place itself is really cute. Not just the honeycomb seating, but love the flowery roof decor! I just wish the place was a bit bigger...more space, more seatings. It's VERY tight in there. Still, this is such an amazing addition to Fort Mill, I can't drop any stars overall.

We were seated as soon as we walking in on a Saturday afternoon in the honeycomb seats. The seats are cute but if you are looking for something with some back support I would not suggest sitting there. Our server was amazing and checked on us on a regular and we even had help with pouring our left overs. If you have ever tried pouring broth out of a bowl into a container you may know the struggle when it comes to not trying to make a mess. But I can say that this new ramen spot is serving up seriously satisfying bowls that hit all the right notes rich, velvety broths, perfectly chewy noodles, and toppings that feel thoughtful, not forced! Pro tip: If you're like me and live for a little heat, go for the spicy ramen. It's bold without overpowering layered with chili oil, roasted garlic, and just the right kick to clear your sinuses and make your taste buds dance. I got a level one and ended up asking for more chili oil. So if you can take the heat go for it!

We had a really nice time at Yoshi Ramen with friends who had raved about their experience prior. We luckily did the online waitlist as we had heard about the long waits outside the restaurant, so were able to show up not long prior to seating. The waitstaff was really helpful in suggesting some food and providing levels of spice so we knew what we were getting ourselves into. They were very attentive throughout, and filled our waters quickly which was really nice for our friends who ordered level 3 spicy dishes. We ordered the takoyaki to share, and then I ordered the sapporo miso ramen. Both were really delicious, came out quickly, and were large portions! Only downsides were that I wish they offered more drink options for beer or sake, in addition to waters and teas. Additionally, it did feel like we were rushed out at the end of the meal. We barely finished and they essentially pushed us out the door. I get wanting to ensure they can get more customers in, but we likely would have ordered more food or teas - instead we took our outing to another location to extend our evening. I'd definitely come again for the food as great ramen is hard to come by in this area.

Each time we go, the wait is quick and easily organized by their QR code line. The servers at this location are both on the ball & respectful of your dining experience. The interior design, architecture and decorations are perfect. An edible and visually tasteful place!

The food was delicious. It was so good to be able to get some good ramen in the winter. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. The honeycomb seating wall is so freaking cool! The only downside to this place is the seating. It's not suited for big groups of people. We went and had a group of 7. We were sat at one of the booths on the floor with an extra table in the aisle. It felt like we were in the way of people coming and going.

Cool place, super fast service, fair pricing, the chicken app & gyoza were very good, the ramen was next level!, deep rich flavors, fresh and amazing. I had the house garlic spice level 1 and it still had a kick, but a pleasant kick. Jasmine tea was fabulous also, only negative was that the water tasted absolutely terrible, seemed stagnant and was very unpleasant. You must try!, just don't get water!

I honestly think I fell in love right when I walked in the door. The decor is so mesmerizing and cozy. Staff was super friendly and very helpful when it came to the menu. On my first visit I tried the Shrimp Lollipop, Kara-Age Chicken, and Sapporo Miso Ramen. Each menu item was well-seasoned, appropriately portioned with excellent presentation.

I have been a few times with my family and a friend and each time it has never been a missed. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. The environment is always clean and inviting. We love sitting in the Honeycomb. The food is always delicious! It's always fresh and great portion size. Ramen is always great as it's their staple but I've been hooked on the Honey Sriracha Chicken and their fried rice. Everything we have been great!

Ordered the Tokyo Shoyu Ramen, chicken fried rice, and Korean style fried chicken. Probably some of the best fried chicken I've had this year! The chicken fried rice was very flavorful. The Tokyo Shoyu Ramen was kind of bland. Will probably try a different ramen when I return

I visited the week that they opened with family. We were sat immediately but it took about 45 minutes before we saw our first dish come out. I believe they were still working through some kinks and learning to handle the high volume. We ordered three appetizers and four sushi rolls- everything tasted great! This place is de the go to if you're wanting to save a bit of money and don't mind waiting a little bit. I can't attest to the drinks because they didn't have their license at the time. The staff was friendly and overall it was a decent experience. I plan on returning now that they've been open a bit longer.

Best ramen ever!! First off, this place was packed on a Wednesday night. We waited 25 minutes for our table of 2 and were able to sit in the very cool honeycomb area at the very top (which is a great idea to maximize seating!) I got the Lychee Ramune and the Tokyo Shoyu with sweet corn and it was all delicious! Typically, ramen places don't have chicken Shoyu options so I was very happy they had one. The chicken was very tasty and the noodles tasted amazing!! I loved the whole experience there with Jon as our waiter and would definitely come back again.

So happy we were able to finally try this place! We tried to come here a few times around dinner, but it was busy! They do have a live waitlist which is awesome. We finally made it in during their lunch service and couldn't be happier! Everything was fantastic from the service to the final dish! We started off the night with the Parmesan truffle fries, and they were the perfect portion. Both my boyfriend and I got the miso Ramen and it was soooo crave-able. From the little slice of butter that comes melted in, to the perfectly tenderized chicken, that literally breaks apart with a SPOON! I couldn't have asked for a better dish. Big thanks to Jon our server & the rest of the staff at Yoshi!! Hope to try more dishes next time!

What a gem to have in Ft. Mill. This place is adorable with the honeycomb seating. Very instagram-worthy. The staff is very friendly. The only negative is that they do not estimate the wait time properly. They told us our wait would be 30-40 min. However, we waited over 50 min. They have a nifty process though. You give your phone number and they text you a link to watch your place in line. It keeps track of your wait time and the time of everyone in front of and behind you. We figured we were in a bit of trouble seeing we were #15 on the list and the #1 spot had been waiting 55 min. We came on a Friday at 7pm. There aren't many tables; the place is small. We ordered the pork gyoza as an appetizer. I guess it is entered electronically on her tablet to the kitchen, because I kid you not, as soon as she stepped away from taking our order, the appetizer was on our table. It was very good. My husband got the soy garlic chicken strips for dinner, but wasn't that impressed. It did not come with any side, so in the middle of eating he called the waitress over and asked for white rice to go with it. He complained a bit that Bon Chon's chicken is alot better than Yoshi Ramen because of the flavor of the sauce and crispiness. I got the house spicy garlic pork ramen ($16) @ a spice level #3. Do not do this ! Lol. I pride myself in liking spicy food, but Level 3 was way too spicy for me. I managed to eat half the bowl, but it was a struggle. I told my husband "This is how you build your heat tolerance." Haha. I ordered a bottle of lychee soda ($3.50), which was interesting but didn't taste much different than my husband's can of Sprite ($2.50). We noticed they had soju for $16... have no idea what that is, but it's alcoholic. They had 3 Japanese beers, Blue Moon, Corona and several flavors of tea. They do not offer any dessert, which is a bit disappointing. We ended up getting ice cream nearby somewhere else. I would come back and try the Ramen again at a normal spice level. This time of year (October) is good soup weather.

I wish they would let you use half stars on Yelp, I would have given 4 1/2 stars. I just didn't feel like the food was 5 STAR. Our service was amazing, the place was clean and we had no wait when we went. We got the Ramen and the fried Korean style chicken wings with soy garlic sauce. we hoped to share the ramen with our daughter, but they use a lot of black pepper, and she won't eat spicy food yet. The broth, the egg and the meat were cooked perfectly. As far as flavor, I personally prefer Sheng Ramen. Great to have a place like this in Fort Mill, though, we will definitely be back and try some more items on the menu!

First time in town and wanted to grab some ramen -- so glad I stopped here! John was AMAZING! Super friendly and helped me figure out what to order. I went with the Hakata Tonkotsu (subbed chicken) and the Takoyaki, and wow... everything was SO good! The broth was rich, the noodles were perfect, and the flavors were on point. Very nice atmosphere, recommend for groups and solo dining. Definitely a spot I'd come back to!

Ambiance: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Food: 10/10 This beautiful ramen shop just opened and it's absolutely delicious. The interior reminds me of KYU ramen in ATL and I love the honeycomb seating. The tonkotsu ramen broth is fantastic, so much better than other places I've tried. So happy to have a ramen shop in Fort Mill! Recommended dishes: coconut shrimp, tonkatsu ramen, shio ramen.

This place has the best Ramen in Tega Cay. They were packed on a Monday night but we were able to be seated in the beehive. The waiter was incredibly nice. He gave us enough time to read the menu and checked on us a few times. We received our food very quickly. Everything we had was really good! Tasty ramen with flavorful broth and really tender meat. The chicken in my ramen melted in my mouth. The inside of the restaurant is really fun with the beehive shaped seating on one wall. The stairs are a little steep but it was a fun experience. My sister and I are both 5'2". If you're over 5'8" you will probably be too tall to sit in the hives comfortably because the wall behind your head angles inward.

me and my friends had a great time, Cloud was the best she helped us with everything it was a first time at a place like this she made ever so simple and good I appreciate this place I hope it stays forever it's my new favorite place to go

Tried tonight for the first time. Though they were busy, they turn the tables around quickly and we only waited about 5 minutes. Food was delicious! Servings are huge! Best ramen I have ever had. The broth was scrumptious and I almost drank it all. Shout out to the service. They all work together to insure that nobody waits long for anything. I also want to give extra kudos for them climbing up and down those narrow steps to the honeycomb booths

The cutest quaint restaurant. Lili our server was such a delight and the entire staff we encountered. We got the chicken katsu and a ramen bowl. Everything was very tasty. It's a real fun experience and worth a try

The Karaage curry ramen. My wife was a big fan of this bowl, good spice but not overbearing. Eggs cooked perfectly. Her only complaint was the karaage, the pieces were too big, requiring multiple bites for each piece. Otherwise the taste was quite good. Highly recommended. I had the Tonkotsu, didn't get a picture as no one seems to care for them. Then again they are a little bland as I do protein only, so not a lot of color. The broth was nice and rich and almost the perfect amount of sticky. I felt the same about the egg, perfectly cooked and very well seasoned. The chashu was hands down the star of the show, sliced just thin enough but not too thin, fatty, well marinated, with just the right amount of char. I'd say out of the Charlotte area ramen spots, I've got a new favorite. Also the decor and layout was very unique and kitchey, nice touch.

Nestled in a small shopping center, Yoshi Ramen was a pleasant little surprise. The decor is so cute, with Japanese style booth seating. Totally photo worthy! We were greeted immediately and added to the waitlist, which was only about a 10-minute wait for 2 people. This is a cute date spot because they have quite a few 2-seater honeycomb booths. Keep in mind that they cannot accommodate parties larger than 5, maybe 6, from what I saw. The house spicy garlic ramen was so good and hit the spot. I got level 1 spice, which wasn't overpowering but I still felt the spice. Their agedashi tofu was absolutely delicious - perfectly umami. I would like to try more menu items in the future! I also think that the pricing was great for the value - a huge factor that will keep me coming back in the future as many ramen shops are overpriced in the Charlotte area. I also appreciate that the menu was varied without being overwhelming. I hope that they keep up the same quality of service and food preparation in the future.

Amazing food and atmosphere! Food is delicious as it looks! I've become so much more skeptical trying new places as more and more places have become a disappointment but this place lived up to the reviews and then some! Just try it for yourself!

In my search of great ramen dining in the area, this is ranked my #1. It's a very unique looking place and the service is very friendly. I'll be back most definitely.

Wow! This place is Delicious. We had: Spicy Garlic Ramen, Tokasu Ramen and the Chicken karaage ramen. Each was so delicious. We all shared. The portions are very nice size and the experience was very special. Gon was our server and made us feel at home. Definitely coming back. Bonus, the seating is also really cool. Great for a date night!

Love love love the food, you gotta try out this restaurant. Just a little bit drive from Charlotte, but it's well worth it. KARA-AGE Chicken and HOUSE SPICY Ramen are my favorites. Fries are tasty, somehow I didn't take the picture on it..... Bee nest design on the booth, a great place for you to add to your instagram too. Nice service also! We will be back!

First time today and our new favorite place for Ramen! We knew we were in for a treat as soon as we walked in to a waitlist. Only 10-15 minute wait for a table. In addition to standard restaurant style seating, they offer 2 levels of unique (in a good way) seating in pods along one of the walls. Personable and attentive service provided by John. We appreciated his friendly advice and extra effort to provide recommendations and give advice on pairings for their yummy Ramen w/Sake.

We enjoyed the Ramen and the ambiance. People were very friendly. The gyoza were also yummy.

I had take out yesterday, I also have eaten in. The food was so good, simply plain fried rice, spring rolls and Korean chicken. Oh goodness it was awesome and the wait time was 20 minutes. Service was good even in this packed house outside the door waiting.

If you're considering eating at this place, just do it!! The service is so kind, we went on my birthday and they brought me a slice of cheesecake and sang to me! And took a Polaroid to hang up on their wall so we could be there forever. And the food! The food is delicious! You won't regret trying this place.

Yoshi Ramen has lived up to what others have said about the establishment. We were warmly greeted when we got to the restaurant. The seating is so cool and maximizes the space they have. The food was fantastic. I feel like this restaurant rivals anything I had when I lived in Los Angeles. I will be going back and bringing everybody I know.

Went for Father's Day. Small 15 minute wait, then a beautiful little honeycomb booth. Service and food were both amazing!!!

Best bang for your buck! What we ordered: Hokata tonkatsu ramen: 4/5 Spicy garlic ramen: 4.3/5 karaage chicken: 4/5 takoyaki: 3/5 spicy korean fried chicken: 4/5 Was definitely worth the 30 mins drive because in Charlotte 1/2 an egg would be $1 extra and they give you a whole egg! Both the chicken apps were crispy and crunchy. Takoyaki did not wow us so it was rated 3/5. Service was excellent! Will be back!

Food, service and ambiance was amazing! The ramen was so delicious. I got the hakodate shio and it was UNREAL! So great. You can't even believe something like this exists in South Carolina. Easily one of my favorite restaurants in the charlotte metro area. You totally have to eat here!!! Can't recommend it enough.

This place is insane. Hands down best Ramen spot I've had in The South period. The food is high quality and comes with great portions. Spicy Garlic Ramen level 2/3 spice was on point, and the Chicken Karaage appetizer was large and very good. The ambiance is great, and the pod seating along the wall for 2 people upstairs makes the experience even better. Staff were amazing, couldn't ask for better service! 11/10 will be back.

Yoshi has only been opened a few weeks, but word of mouth is spreading quickly and I understand why. We ate there last Saturday and got to the restaurant about 4:50. By the time we ordered, there was a line out the door. Once you taste the food, you understand why. The spicy garlic ramen was one of the most flavorful and tasty ramen bowls I've had. The broth is rich and smooth and the perfect balance of heat and flavor. You will be breathing garlic for awhile afterwards so beware! My wife had the Tokyo ramen and the chicken based broth was amazing. The food is fantastic and the decor is cool too. We sat "upstairs" in a honeycomb booth and the service was attentive and efficient. They don't yet have their liquor license so we stuck to water, but the waiter gave great descriptions of the ramen bowls and explained a couple other options we were considering. Overall, this will be a mainstay. It is reasonably priced compared to other ramen shops and there are a lot of other choices on the menu

The menu is simple and straight forward, resulting in excellent and delicious food! All of the appetizers were delicious; the gyoza were so good, the takoyaki were served at the perfect temperature so we didn't burn ourselves, the pork in the pork buns was juicy and sauced perfectly, and the karaage chicken was so crispy and juicy! The ramen broth was rich and flavorful. Our server, Jon did a great job with taking care of our table. He was very attentive and made good suggestions. The layout is so cool! The smaller, multi leveled tables are fun to enjoy with a date.

Great new option for ramen and several other items. Nice atmosphere, good service and excellent food at a reasonable price.

This ramen place was excellent. Had the Spicy Garlic ramen and the wife had the Tonkatsu ramen both were very delicious. Felt like the ramen I have had Japan. The addon selections were great and the karagu chicken and fried tofu were also very good. Our server Tiffany was very good. She was attentive and very friendly. All the staff were friendly. The place was small but very comfortable. The had cute little cubbies where people could sit on the right side on the restaurant. This will definitely be our place to go for ramen from now. Best ramen in the Charlotte area.

Would have been fantastic - but NOTHING is vegetarian. Tofu and miso options - but they put fish powder in everything, and it's not listed. They saved this from a 1-star thanks to management for figuring out a creative solution and comping an appetizer. Ramen is fantastic and the garlic tofu dish (with fish product) is delicious. Aesthetic is spot on - seating is unique; only downside is acoustics. But not enough to be an issue. No fountain drinks - water or canned soda.
