The only issue I have with the order out is that they put the hot miso soup with the sushi in the same bag. I prefer my sushi cold and my soup hot. Not mixed in the same bag. The ramen pork is not the normal thin sliced pork that I and used to getting. Instead it is a thicker grilled piece which also tastes very good. Just different texture and taste. Overall very good and the best sushi I've had in Iowa so far.

If you're looking for authentic, flavorful ramen, Hokkaido is absolutely worth the visit. This was…read moreonly our second ramen spot, but it has officially become the standard we'll compare every other ramen restaurant against. We started with the dumplings, and they were outstanding--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. They were the perfect way to start the meal. I ordered the Spicy Beef Ramen, and all I can say is... wow. The broth was rich, bold, and full of depth without overpowering the dish. The beef was incredibly tender, practically falling apart with every bite, and every ingredient came together perfectly. My wife ordered the Miso Ramen and couldn't stop talking about how flavorful and comforting it was. Every spoonful tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The atmosphere was another highlight. The restaurant has a beautiful, open layout with warm lighting, Japanese-inspired décor, and a welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay and enjoy your meal. It feels modern while still being cozy. To top it all off, the service was phenomenal. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling intrusive. Hokkaido delivered on every level--food, atmosphere, and service. We'll definitely be back, and if you're in the Ankeny area and craving ramen, this is a place you need to experience. Highly recommended.

The dynamite volcano sushi was great, and very filling. Ninja has one of the freshest sushi in the whole metro. The tonkatsu ramen was also good, but lacked a little in flavor, but still enjoyed. We also had miso soup- a classic, edamame- a nice addition to any meal, and the steamed bao buns, which was probably our least favorite. The dish was just a bit bland. The ambiance of the restaurant is super spacious and great service with not much wait time. The owners are really nice. The servers are fine, but overall, a highly recommended restaurant in the metro.

The restaurant was decorated beautifully with a cherry blossom tree, a gigantic tv with underwater reef video. They had a large bar that you could sit and eat at.

We ordered pineapple fried rice that was served in a plate that looked like pineapple, seafood ramen, the LA roll and a whole bunch of sashimi that was served in a sea turtle bowl on crushed ice. We will definitely be going again!

It comes with 6, but I forgot to get a picture before we dug in. We ordered two rolls the Angry Dragon and Marilyn Monroll. Both were good, not my favorite, but I'm looking forward to trying more of their rolls. The service was good, but nothing crazy. We waited a little bit for our drink and food order to be taken, but otherwise smooth sailing. We both enjoyed this place and will be back, especially for happy hour!
