    New Spicy Garlic Ramen
    Junior O.

    Food was amazing, and let's start by saying Alvin's service( The Chef) was amazing checked on us constantly, recommended their new Spicy Garlic beef ramen after we ordered our usual spicy garlic ramen with chicken. Wanted us to really give it a try and gave us a sample which was amazing for him to do because he didn't have to and I must say it's better than the regular spicy chicken garlic ramen and the quantity of beef was exceptional. Ambiance is always great on the inside around lunch time it's pretty chill as well.

    My friends and I got Higuma yesterday for dinner as it was in a convenient location for us. I tried this place a few years ago and it looks similar with the individual seating areas on the side. There are also booths and tables for group dining. The restaurant was fairly empty on a Tuesday night and it was more on the quieter side. The service here was good, they checked in on us multiple times during our visit. I ordered the spicy garlic beef ramen and I was a big fan of it. Normally I would stick to a tonkotsu ramen whenever I visit a ramen restaurant but I love beef noodle soups. The beef was nice and tender and the broth had a lot of garlic (which I enjoyed). I feel like this bowl was the perfect amount of food and great for cold nights like yesterday! I will definitely be back to try their tonkotsu ramen and other izakaya offerings.

    Stopped by and ordered the spicy tuna crispy rice appetizer along with a cold Asahi beer, and it absolutely hit the spot. The crispy rice paired perfectly with the spicy tuna, it was super flavorful and really satisfying. The ambiance was great and the service was top notch as well. Definitely a spot I'd come back to for a quick bite and drink.

    This is an authentic, delicious ramen. Ten stars!! My husband had hamburg curry with omelette and it was amazing.. the tempura was fresh and delicious and probably one of the best tempura vegetable dishes I've had. Don't underestimate the importance of fresh and well prepared tempura vegetable.... It's so so good!! They had a tasting menu and I got a spicy tuna avocado something, which was absolutely wonderful and unexpected and how many times have I said DELICIOUS in this review?! I will be BACK!! The entire staff is friendly and attentive and smiling. I absolutely love it here.

    Amazing place! amazing Food! Amazing Service. We went there for lunch with our 5 month daughter. Staff was super friendly to accommodate for our daughter. Ambience is great. Food arrived it was amazing. I have been to Kyoto, Tokyo, Osaka and Sapporo. Their ramen is very near the authentic. One of the best Ramen I had in America. Their Mango soda and Thai tea is also great!

    Nice cozy place. Appreciated the variety of Japanese dishes. Everything was high quality. Yum. Nice staff too.

    Holy moly. I didn't think I'd be saying this after coming here on a whim, but I legitimately think this is the best ramen I've had outside Japan. So before I say anything else - if you like ramen, GO HERE. We walked in on a slow weekday and were pleasantly surprised by the large, well-decorated area of the place. There's even single-diner private booths, which is something I haven't seen any other ramen places around here have! We were greeted immediately and checked on very often, probably the best customer service I've had in a while at a restaurant. But we didn't take too long to decide what we wanted - we were locked in on wanting ramen. You guys, I can't tell you just how perfect this ramen was for my personal taste - just the right balance of flavors, excellently cooked proteins between my partner's duck ramen and the chashu in mine, and the ideal amount of noodles to broth. Absolutely everything was great, it blew me away! So I'm writing all this to say thank you for a great meal and great experience, and I'll definitely be back.

    I LOVE THEIR RAMEN SO MUCH!! The service is so wonderful and the decor is always so cute, and it's usually always changing lowkey!

    Service was fast, and I loved the cute decorations and general ambiance! I got my ramen at a spice level of 3/6 and it was the perfect level of spice and flavor for me. Definitely one of my new favorite ramen spots in Dallas!

    Beautiful entrance
    Ellsie S.

    Wowwww Wowww Wowwww Run to this restaurant!!! We found this place from yelp after our dental appt at Epic Dentistry. We drove from Arlington. So impressed with how beautiful, clean and yummy the dishes are! We will come back with our friends... Keep up the great work! We ordered the spicy wonton, the tonkotsu garlic noodle soup, tempura sushi roll... large sake. Glad we found this place. We took the leftover broth to go ;)

    Waygu burger with fluffy egg
    Kevon N.

    I came here during lunch not sure what to expect, it is a ramen spot but I was in a rice kind of mood. I seen they had a Waygu burger over rice with fluffy egg and I knew that is what I wanted. This caught me by surprise the sauce was really good and the fluffy egg was really light. I would be back to try the Ramen and other dishes.

    My best friend and I tried this place recently and we loved it! This is hands down the best ramen I've ever had. I got the spicy garlic ramen and my friend got the miso ramen. We also tried the spicy tuna crispy rice and it was delicious. The decor and ambience is really lovely as well. 10/10 will be coming back!

    Spicy tonkotsu
    Marlee T.

    This place is the besssttt ramen I've ever had! I love ramen and have eaten at a lot of places but this is hands down my favorite. Their spicy tonkotsu ramen is so delicious because the broth is spot on. The place is clean and the service is always great. I highly recommend Higuma!

The menu is awesome, and my all time favorite is definitely their classic karaage chicken (so sad it hasn't been on the hh menu for a long time now). I recently tried their Tini Tuesdays and the lychee martini was fantastic. They also have an amazing happy hour menu with tons of food options, which is a perfect, budget-friendly way to try a little bit of everything. The space itself is great. There is plenty of seating inside, and the patio outside is so cute with its swinging chairs. It has a great vibe that works well for date nights, family gatherings, or just catching up with friends. The service style is super straightforward. Its open seating, you just order at the bar, take a pager tracker to your table, and they bring the food right out to you. It's incredibly easy, but the place does get packed. I highly recommend going a bit early to beat the dinner rush and grab a good spot!

    Kisses xoxoxoxo I love this place. My boyfriend said I was over exaggerating about this place but…read moreprofusely apologized after the first bite. I went the day before Thanksgiving and the japanese chef was a one man show. He was the only one running the establishment because everyone else had left to go to Japan for the holiday. He is so so so so nice. I don't go back to restaurants very often but this place has my heart. This time I got the spicy pork ramen (17), spicy garlic chicken ramen (18), and then got the spicy garlic pork ramen (19) togo. I will say it is a little bit salty, with the garlic ones being more salty than the non garlic ones. However the garlic ones do have more flavor. There's not that much meat/protein either just one piece of meat and an egg. The could be slightly better but it's still good. It also just has bamboo shoots but nothing else. A very simple bowl. Ambiance is nice, it feels upscale but also homey at the same time. They have an open kitchen concept which I like.

I had to dig for it. I know they probably put the meat at the bottom so it'll warm up with the broth, but I prefer it at the top. The egg was whole and cooked so it was a little runny inside, which I liked. I also liked the noodles. Unrelated to the food, I sat on the bench and there was a customer sitting on the bench beside me. She kept shifting around and causing the entire bench to move, which I didn't like.

The same sushi chefs were there every time. We got to know several of them quite well. On at least five occasions we ran into Chuck Norris at Mr. Sushi. He was a regular customer. Now the bad news: We went there tonight to celebrate our anniversary. All the old sushi chefs were gone. I understand. People get old and retire or pass away. At least one of them moved to another sushi bar. We ordered two sashimi dinners. The price was $54 per dinner. The ​​portion size was ​ti​ny ​​​​for ​the ​​price.

It was drinkable, ​but ​​​​not what we e​x​​​​​pected. Our server never offered us refills. The fish was not bad, but pieces were small and my wi​fe had one piece that had a very​​ fishy taste. The decor and ambiance were identical to what they were 37 years ago. Nothing has changed. The walls had dirty faded wallpaper. There were even some holes in the wall. The place looked old and stale. With so many new sushi restaurants in ​this area, you'd think they would renovate the place. Clearly, the cu​rrent owners have become complacent. I used to recommend Mister Sushi to people. Now my recommendation is to go somewhere else. We won't be going back.

The stars were aligned correctly and I was able to come to the Richardson location right when it opened. As someone that's a huge fan of Izakaya's - Mr Max did leave a little bit to be desired. Food quality was great, don't get me wrong - however I feel like for the cost, the portions are a little bit on the small side. The menu is also a little limited - this location has been open a while already so I assume they aren't going to expand the menu beyond whatever is already on there. I guess I've just been spoiled with other Izakaya's having pages upon pages of things to choose from. The dining area is quite nice, though I heard the og Irving location has tatami style seating - which this one does not. Not a deal breaker for me. Staff was nice and restaurant was clean, just wish their portion sizes were at least a little more "Texas" sized for the price. Other diners I went with said the noodles are better at the Irving location but I can't speak to that as I've never been there. All in all still a nice dining experience.

    Love the new location of Mr Max - since they opened last year we've been at least 5 times and IMO…read morethe quality is as good as the original location in Irving (which also happens to be our favorite Japanese spot in the metroplex). The ambience is definitely less classic izakaya style (no taking your shoes off or sitting at the bar watching the chefs work in the kitchen), but all of our favorite dishes that we've tried at the Richardson location have been spot on. We like to do shareable small plates style, even for the "bigger" entrees like ramen and the house curry, and we're always stuffed at the end of our meal. Service is pretty good and personally I love that this location is much closer to where we live and usually also much less busy than the OG location; better for us to walk in whenever we want :) Can't wait to return soon!
