    This restaurant is new so it's all shiny and new with great menu options. My miso ramen tasted great and was very savory. My chashu pork was chopped which threw me off because I'm used to the thinly sliced pork. The gyoza were cooked perfectly as well. Decent drink lineup if you want some Asian inspired drinks to go with your food. Overall a decent amount of noodles with toppings for the broth, but I think the extra toppings can get a little pricey. Closest to authentic Japanese ramen in my local area in comparison to some other local spots

    The thing that stood out to me the most about this place was the decor. It's so beautiful and fun! I especially loved the floating lanterns on the ceiling. The service was fantastic. The staff greeted us right at the door and our waiter walked us through the menu since it was our first time. They checked on us often and made sure our drinks stayed full, which I really appreciated. Our food came out super quick, which was awesome. We didn't have to wait long at all and everything arrived hot a fresh. The food was decent. I loved the pork gyoza, it was cooked perfectly and ended up being my favorite thing I tried. My boyfriend got the ramen and wasn't a big fan of the woodear mushrooms, but that could just be a personal preference. I ordered the chicken hibachi, and while the veggies were cooked great, the chicken was a little too chewy for my liking.

    I was excited to check it out new ramen place, little pricey for ramen. Restaurant very clean, good customer service. I ordered Gugu style - sub minced pork to chashu. Broth is very good, but not in level spicy We will be back.

    We had an amazing dinner tonight at this new Japanese restaurant in Papillion, NE next! The ambiance was warm and inviting, with beautiful décor that really captured the authentic feel of Japan. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We ordered the steak and chicken skewers--both were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The ramen came delicious. Oh by the way don't forget to pair your meal with a boba or sweet drink (we had fruit and lychee one) so refreshing --it's the perfect finishing touch. Highly recommend giving this place a try!

    Went in for their grand opening and my oh my was it worth the wait!! My husband and I ordered the tonkotsu ramen, but I got mine upgraded and spicy. This was our first meal of the day so we had a big appetite and also ordered a variety of appetizers. We ordered their crispy wings. Those came with the sauce and dry seasoning on the side. We got the beef skewers and takoyaki as well. They even have boba!! The food was delicious, service was fast, and the prices were fare for what you get. We are definitely coming again to try out all the dishes on their menu.

    Food was yummy and came out super quick! Good place for the kiddos or for a casual date night. The ramen broth was rich and delicious. The staff was attentive and kind.

My partner and I walked in looking forward to everything, once we had been sat down by the hostess we were ignored by our waitress Cheyenne. She didn't greet us for almost 10 minutes and our hostess even got us our waters and apologized for the time she had been taking so long. Once she got our order moments afterwards another 10-15 minutes go by until we got our delicious food (served yet again by our hostess and not the waitress.) but during that time our waitress was happily serving the other guests and got their drinks before us. While we were eating our food, I noticed she didn't bother to stop by our table to see how we were doing or ask about our food. She went to the other tables she had and asked them, got them refills and other things they have mentioned. I tried to make eye contact but she would ignore my eyes when we locked, even eyeballed our table and still didn't talk to us. Towards the end I noticed the hostess and our waitress talking and looking at us (assuming the hostess said something to her about us being finished with our food.) She then came to our table saying "I see you guys are full, here are your double deep fried Oreos" and passes off the check. When we gave her the card to pay for she then realized she had forgotten our drinks. which I do appreciate she comped our appetizer, gave us a discount and then made my drink (not her but yet again the hostess.) Did not appreciate the baby talk when she was talking though saying "I am so sowy" and etc. I don't know if this was intentional or not but this was an upsetting experience.

    Came in on this Monday evening for dinner. First time in!…read more It was a welcoming environment with lots of seating booths and tables and bar. Good tunes playing during dinner. Food came out fast. The servers did a great job! Alcohol: Ume old fashion A peach of my heart Entrees: Mongolian beef plate Spicy miso with additional chicken The spicy miso was a bit too spicy for me, but I would recommend if you like spicier things. The Mongolian beef plate was savory and beef was flavorful.

We've gone with friends and on our own and there's always been a table ready pretty quickly and servers ready to get our orders. We recently went to dinner here and we were both hungry and eager for some Ramen. I ordered the Blackstone Tonk with an egg and my boyfriend ordered the Spicy Miso with extra noodles. The broth for mine was rich, flavorful, and warm. The pork was perfectly tender and the egg added texture and more flavor for me. My boyfriend is always happy with a little spicy heat in his meals and he was pleased with his choice. He may have added a little more spice but that's just because he's evolved his tastebuds to handle it. Anytime we decide to come to this Ika I know that the food and service will be consistent. The servers are always on point in checking on you, our waters were refilled a few times, and they never seem like they are rushing us out the door. On a different note, I also appreciate the decor and atmosphere in this location. The old brick walls and open space feels as though, and there probably is, a lot of history within the walls. Tucked away down an alley, this location is easy to miss but absolutely worth a try!

    My coworker and I were visiting from out of town and wanted to find something delicious and fresh…read more We were impressed by the menu, but were extremely disappointed by our entire experience. We ordered take out and when we entered the restaurant we waited at the front desk as the sign suggested. The waitress and kitchen staff all looked at us several times, but never acknowledged us being there. Not even a "we will be right with you" After 10 min the server came and acted annoyed that we were there and we explained we had a to go order. She told us to go "just get it" as if we knew we should step into the kitchen area and look for it. We found our bag and all items but one on the order had a check mark on the receipt, so we decided to open the bag to see if everything was inside. The server came up to us and scolded us for opening it, saying that she had packed it herself and included everything. We explained our reasoning and she said "I was too busy to put a check mark" WHAT?! There were literally 2, 4 tops in the ENTIRE restaurant. She was SO rude. I have worked in the service industry and I understand being swamped, but this was not one of those situations. We left with our food and decided to ignore the terrible service, however when we started to open the boxes of food we came to find out the quality matched the service. Slopped together, poorly seasoned... just NOT good. The spicy dishes were unbearable... and I like spicy. The other dishes had zero taste. It was such a shame. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

The inside is a little on the smaller side, but did have a variety of seating. Our waitress was super kind and attentive. Poor girl was running the bar and restaurant by herself, and was a rockstar. The food was overall ok. The tuna itself was fresh and overall was pretty tasty. The downside of the dish was that it did feel a bit one note. I'm sure it would have been better with the eel sauce, but I unfortunately couldn't have that. I honestly wish there was cucumber in it for some texture variation. It was also pretty spicy, but not so bad that I couldn't tolerate it. Overall, definitely a good place to stop by for a fresh and tasty lunch at village pointe!
