    Chicken skewer combo
    Jackie B.

    We had a great experience. We called prior to see if there was a wait for our party of three and there was not. When we arrived we were able to sit right away. This was about 6 on Friday. All of the tables have been full. Devin was our server and he was friendly and attentive, food was delivered timely and most of all it was delicious.

    Food was DELISH. Service was quick and the atmosphere was dimly lit. Plenty of tables to sit at.

    Brand spankin' new and open for business! Still in 'soft' opening, so limited menu for both food and drinks! However, what a nice and pleasant experience! The place looks amazing and so modern & clean! The staff were extremely nice and on-top of everything! We order some Nigori unfiltered sake and a few appetizers, fried oysters and gyoza - then our meals, Skewers and a Ramen bowl . It was all fantastic - I cannot wait for the grand opening!! The fill me up will be spectacular!!

    Shoyu Ramen

    We had the pleasure of attending day, one of their soft opening. I have been dying for a good Ramen restaurant in the Trinity area since we moved here, about four years ago. We were not disappointed! As it was the first day, we were expecting a few kinks, but we arrived at lunch, and it was an incredibly smooth experience. APPS: We started with two appetizers, the Takoyaki and karaage. It was clear the car was made in house with good flavor, but not too overpowering or too fried. It was lightly fried and I thought absolutely perfect. The only recommendation I could give was that they were a little big for bite-size pieces so I did have to use my chopstick to break them down, so that I could take small smaller bites. DRINKS: My husband ordered some saki and someone came out to get his profile and help Help make a wonderful recommendation that he thoroughly enjoyed. MEAL: I had the Shoyu Ramen and he had the Shio so that we could compare. Have I been given either on their own? I would've been extremely happy. However, I really preferred to Shoyu. His was a slightly lighter broth, but I felt like mine had more Unami flavor ATMOSPHERE/AMBIANCE: this does not feel like a Trinity/New Port Richey restaurant. Upon walking in I had vibes of my old favorite Tampa hats. It has a upscale slightly trendy feel that is perfect for a date night. However, we had quite a few families that had brought in young children, and they seemed to fit right in as well. SERVICE: for a soft opening, we were expecting some kinks and issues, but we found our server to be incredibly attentive. The manager came over and the owners even stopped by to ensure that we had everything we needed. I imagine some kinks will still need to be worked out as the restaurant gets more busy, but this was honestly top-notch service! We can't wait to go back! BONUS: the menu we saw was for their soft lunch, they plan on expanding it and adding my favorite soup, black garlic Ramen!

    Wow! Wow! Wow! What a hidden gem this place is. The decor is beautiful, the ambiance super cool, the service great, and the food ABSOLUTELY amazing. You can taste each ingredient individually, but then everything comes together in an explosion of flavors. You have to try this place!!

    Chicken Katsu served with miso soup, salad, steamed rice and Japanese potato salad.

    The food was very good. I had the Chicken Katsu and my wife had one of the ramen dishes. Excellent service for our meal. The decor is done well and very comfortable. We will definitely be back.

    My wife and I went to this new place the other day since it's near her work. It was definitely a bit hard to find l(the signage is a work in progress)!, but it's across from the Cantina. We were very impressed with the ambience of the restaurant. Excellent decor and prompt waitstaff. We both ordered the spicy miso Ramen and it did not disappoint. Incredible flavor and a decent size portion for the price. They also have a fairly good sake selection, which we enjoyed. Definitely are coming back again.

    Great to see that they are finally finishing the plaza. This restaurant is in after 20 years. Classic decor very well decorated with decent seating arrangement. Full menu of authentic dishes for bar limited desserts, but traditional. Service was great very friendly definitely a local hangout spot for families with young kids as the children menu offers great value.

    Newly opened ramen spot in the area and a great addition to the neighborhood. The restaurant has a modern Japanese-style design and is very clean. The food presentation is beautiful, and the ramen broth tastes very authentic. The staff are also very friendly. We tried a few different appetizers, and everything was well balanced and flavorful. Really happy to have a spot like this nearby. Will definitely be a go-to spot.

    Karaage (chicken) appetizer

    We anxiously awaited the opening of this place at the Trinity Tuscan Town Center and today was its soft opening. It did not disappoint. This place is amazing all the way around, from decor to service to food to drink. The menu is smaller than the eventual full menu but expected for a soft opening but still an amazing selection of food and drink. Appetizers are all authentic Japanese and delicious. Priced appropriately as well. The Raman is amazing, all homemade, including the miso. The curry pork katsu was perfect and a massive serving. The bar is full service, Japanese beer on draft and top shelf Sake. Service was fabulous (shout out to Jasmine ) and the owners were very attentive. This is a jewel.

    Good food. Good ambience. Wonderful waiters. One of our favorite places . We love Chascu pork bowl and all of the ramens .

    Great place. My only fear is it will get so popular one day will be hard to get in. Brand new very clean bathrooms. Sorry but that's a judge of how places keep everything up. Great food and apps. Drinks looked good, but I skipped this time. Service was friendly, helpful.

    Ask the Community - Kanpai Ramen

    Do they have vegetarian ramen. Vegetable based broth with tofu and vegetables?

    Yes. Our vegetable clear broth is cold-brewed overnight to extract the natural umami from the vegetables, and it comes with five different veggie toppings, including tofu and assorted vegetables.

We chose this restaurant because it was one of the few nearby that had gluten free options for me. They didn't know, and we didn't tell them, but we are all here together for my aunt's funeral service, so their kindness and patience meant a lot to us. They were great at accommodating the two kiddos in our party and their particular dining needs, and everything came out as requested. The miso soup was quite salty for my cousin. My Tom Yum Soup was pretty good, but not very spicy. I enjoyed my Panang Curry, and there was a lot of unagi in my cousin's Unagi Donburi. My uncle ordered the ramen and it took a really long time to come out, but I wonder if it was just due to staff shortage in the back relative to our party size. Overall, we had a very nice experience and would recommend this restaurant.

But this fried rice was so good. It seasoned perfectly with the fatty beef make that whole fried rice flavors were very rich. I got the Uni sushi and it was the sweetest and the creamiest thing I've ever had. The server told me that they get fresh Uni every week from Japan. I also got the sushi combo and they were very nice that they let me substitute tuna to more salmon because I personally don't like tuna. Everything was so fresh. Everything was so good even the water was very refreshing and did not taste weird. The server was very sweet and kind. She tried her best to cater us such as substitute my sushi she was talking to us and she's very likable. We will definitely come back and try other things. The Whole place was very clean and big.

Let's start with the ambiance. I have been at this location when it was previously another restaurant and the upgrades done are exceptional. Kanji is a perfect date ambiance. (bring a jacket though, it can get chilly). As far as service, I've never had bad service here, and the recommendations are truly to leave you satisfied, not just to pad the bill. THE FOOD. The spicy Tonkatsu, fried oysters, gyosa, fried rice...heck almost anything on the menu as been amazing and the Sushi isn't stingy. You might pay a little more but you get a lot more. Full bar selection and good bartenders are just the plus. Clean bathrooms, clean restaurant, great food, great service. Highly recommend.

The Ramen is okay, but it just doesn't hit like before. The restaurant was a laid back vide with Japanese inspired themes and music in the background. Our server points us to our table and hands us menus to start. We always start out with an edamame appetizer and then go ahead and order the ramen. My partner got the spicy tonkatsu and I had wanted to do the "make your own ramen" option. I really wanted wagyu but didn't like the toppings it came with. So I just made my own, though it was very costly to add more toppings, so I just chose 2. Overall, the experience was okay. It's not the worse ramen place I've been to but I'll probably only swing my when it's out of convenience
