    Sushi Roll
    Erin P.

    Awesome hole in the wall spot in a shopping center. Doesn't look like much inside or out (definitely more of a carry out) but the staff is friendly and the food is solid. As a vegetarian, it can be a challenge to get good food while out on the road. Their vegetable curry (a yellow, more Japanese style curry) is full of fresh zucchini, broccoli, and carrots. It is served in a generous portion over rice. It was served hot and fresh. I easily stretched it to lunch and dinner! They offer numerous tofu options, as well. My colleagues got the chicken curry and Cajun chicken, which they raved about. They also ordered a sushi roll with crab and said it was great (it was HUGE!). The menu offered whole fish, shrimp, and many other options. Certainly something for everyone. Will definitely be back for the veggie curry next time I'm in Franklin for work. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a hearty, fresh, and affordable lunch or dinner on the go.

    I moved to the area a couple of years ago and didn't expect much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The hibachi was soooo good. I haven't had any sushi yet, but I plan to try asap.

    Not good curry, rice is way overcooked and things floating in the curry were unappetizing. Sad, lady sad their curry was great.. not so.

    Based on the good reviews, this place seemed like a must try for lunch! Wow we were wrong. Lady recommended $20 hibachi... for lunch? I dont think so. She said the curry chicken lunch was great, at $10 it was still steep but I love some curry. I think this is the first time I was totally turned off by the smell and taste of a curry. The objects floating in the curry were just as bad I attempted to remove them from the sludge. Then went for a bit of rice and it assumed the shape of the styrofoam, way overcooked. The steak cheeze egg roll was my savior, took a bite to find a better flavor, but steak chunks that were almost impossible to chew. I can't recommend this place.

    This was only half of my lunch! It was the best food I've had in a long time. We will definitely be back. Clean restaurant and friendly staff

    Long slender setup...use to be a sub shop I believe

    If food is not to a customers liking we should have the choice to get something else or even a refund, not professional at all.

Whether it's just the two of us or with a group, there have been no complaints on our end. Let's see how this visit went. We were seated once we walked in. Just like before, the decor was set up perfectly and each customer was taken care of by the wonderful staff making sure everyone was comfortable. No problems here at all. For the selections, we had pan-fried pork gyoza and I had chicken Katsudon for my entree (Sophia had her usual, chicken Katsu Ramen). Everything delivered was on point. Well-cooked and tasted great. I do wish I could add more, but when you eat regular dishes, there's nothing more to say. Thank you again Tanpopo Ramen for making Sophia and myself satisfied. Keep it up :)

I appreciated the simplicity of this place in that regard , the broth really talked for itself. Im not a fan of miso so I wasnt exactly sure if id like it, but like I said, best ramen ive ever had . Ive never had a good ramen egg either, sometimes they're just too egg-y or mucus like for lack of a better descriptor, I actually ate this ramen egg. It didnt taste like egg and had a very nice jello like texture, will be going back next time im in the area to try the katsu . Service was also very prompt & attentive. I was sat right away, I had my food within 10 minutes even though the place was a little busy since it was dinner time on a Saturday night, and the server was very nice. **Ramen excluded the nori**

    I was really craving udon, and it's hard to find -- but I discovered this spot on Door Dash and…read morethought I'd give it a shot. I ordered the Kake Udon for me and two orders of steamed gyoza for my kiddo. I gotta say, I was surprised when the order arrived. The udon noodles were paper thin compared to what I'm used to. The fried tofu was so hard it was basically inedible, and the broth - well, it had little to no flavor. To top it off, my kiddo took a bite of one dumpling and then spit it out. This child DESTROYS dumplings, so I asked him what happened -- he said "who puts corn and carrots in a gyoza dumpling?!?" and I can't say I disagree with him. Pork and cabbage filling - duh! Overall, totally not our jam and we probably won't revisit it. I guess the reviews are based more on folks who haven't experienced true Japanese cooking? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure my Japanese host mother would have given it no stars.

Today I got the seafood ramen with mussels, clams and a couple of pieces of imitation crab sticks. The broth was warm and tasty, and spicy after adding generous spoonfuls of the chili oil, a must-add for cold, wet weather. I also snuck some bites of my husband's katsu-don and was a little jealous of how good it was. Next time I will get the katsu ramen bowl and have the best of both worlds. We also got sashimi and crab Rangoon for appetizers which everyone enjoyed. And my lychee ice tea was sooo good. It's a bit sweet but the lychee flavor was amazing and I can't wait to try the other flavors. Overall a great experience, especially after a day of traveling in chilly weather. Thank you for the great service and friendly welcome, can't wait to return!

I had the Ebi (shrimp) curry ramen. The curry was very flavorful but different than both Jamaican and Indian curries. I don't like that they keep the tails on the shrimp even though it's in the ramen. I also had salmon rice balls as well as Shumai. The shumai was good and so were the rice balls, but never having had rice balls, they weren't what I was expecting. I expected them to have meat in them but it was just rice with salmon flavored powder. We also added hot green tea to our meal. While not anything special, I do like to end my meal this way. The service was pretty good but we didn't like that our waitress stood next to our table from the moment we sat down. We felt pressured to hurry up and order, and it just made things awkward. She was very attentive though. This restaurant is your typical local Japanese style restaurant. Very authentic in its feel and decor - nothing fancy, basic service. But if you like more authentic type dishes vs chain restaurants, I think this is a place to try! Oh, I will also add this place was alot less expensive than places like Domoishi! I give it a 3 star because I feel neutral about it - not because anything was super wrong about it!

    I've been on the hunt for a good ramen spot--and after a few disappointing tries, I finally found…read moreit. Osaka Ramen and Sushi really exceeded my expectations. I ordered the spicy umami miso ramen with tofu, karaage, and a soft-boiled egg, and it was absolutely delicious--rich, comforting, and full of flavor. I'll admit I went a little overboard with the add-ons, but I was just too excited and couldn't resist. It's a hidden gem tucked into a shopping center and easy to miss from the main road, but there's plenty of parking and once you're inside it's much more spacious than it looks. The staff were friendly, service was quick, and everything came out fresh. Prices were very reasonable too, especially for the portion sizes and quality. There's also a wide menu beyond ramen, so I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more. Before leaving, I grabbed a brown sugar boba milk tea too. I was already full, so I saved it for later--but even then, it was still really good. Overall, a great first experience--I'll definitely be returning!

I absolutely love this spot because it's never super busy, the ambiance is nice and the service is always great. I ordered the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen w/Oxtail and an extra soft, boiled egg. It was served very quickly and it was great. The broth was savory, the oxtail was tender and the noodles were perfect. I ate the entire bowl. Unfortunately, a few hours later, I didn't feel that great. I'm not sure if the pork or oxtail were bad but something did not agree with my stomach at all. I felt awful! That was the first time I had that experience with their food so I don't want to count them out but it may be a while before I return.
