I love Ramen and this place did not disappoint! Each ramen we tried tasted SO different and very…read moregood. We also order the Bao Bun appetizer (very good!) just make sure to order one per person since it's single serving. I ordered the Tonkotsu Black Ramen subbed bigger noodles - definitely recommend for a more creamy broth don't forget to add extra sauces tho that are on the table! The only thing we orded that we all weren't a big fan of was a drink called something like a kiwi sparkler (with rock candy) and it was very bland. Staff were very kind, and quick!

Came for the Ramen (since it was so highly rated) expecting good food! Pleasantly surprised to not…read moreonly get really tasty food (I ordered the black garlic ramen) but really thoughtful and attentive service. The waitstaff overheard that we had a birthday in the group and they brought out dessert AND sang happy birthday TWICE! It was so fun and I could see that my husband was so happy to be sung 2 rounds of the birthday song along with being very friendly and readily available to help, they were great at answering questions we had about the menu items. The food was delicious, of course, but the employees/team made the biggest difference in the overall experience Also great ambience! We visited on a weeknight and the vibes did NOT feel monotonous or boring! It's clearly a popular takeout spot too because there was a long row of deliveries waiting at the front

The ramen and prices here were amazing. We were especially drawn to this restaurant because we saw…read morethat they give complimentary ice cream after the meal. I got the karaage ramen, and my friend got the black garlic ramen. We both enjoyed our meals, and I loved how the broth wasn't too salty. The chicken karaage was so delicious with a tasty sauce. The portions were filling, and my ramen was $14 before tip. The service was far beyond what we expected. They let us choose between chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla ice cream. It came in those little pre-packaged containers with a little wooden stick one would get in the hospital. They gave us our checks with lollipops. The staff were so kind.

So here's the thing. They have a sign in the restaurant…read morestating if you leave a 5 star review you get a free dessert. Which makes me question the sincerity of the quality of their restaurant. I dined in and their menu was extremely limited and you have to add everything a la cart unlike other ramen places. On the menu they clearly state do not leave a bad review just leave direct feedback. But honestly, you shouldn't have to bribe or beg your patrons in trying to silence them. Make the needed adjustments to earn loyal customers, like not making them add every single ingredient as a separate charge, playing some music to drown out conversation from the other table, checking on your customers a little more often, and improving the quality of your menu. I love local businesses but the pressure they put on you as a customer, is unreal. I'll try giving them another chance but not anytime soon, I'll stick with Suck It in the Medical Center.

This place was pretty busy for a Sunday evening which is always a good sign…read more Our group ordered some appetizers: spicy edamame, edamame sticks (because one edamame wasn't enough ), and gyoza. All were very good. We then ordered our ramen: chicken cashu and shrimp tempura. I had the level 1 spice which was quite spicy but the broth was wonderful. Service was a bit on the slow side. There was only one server who kept apologizing. She was very sweet md she was clearly doing her best to keep up. All together, it's definitely worth a try.

Weather perfect day to try this place. Seating indoors and outdoors. Padded booths and low Japanese…read morestyle seating for the young and limber who can climb in and out of the hole. They are always busy but seem to handle it well. They do by state in menu a few things like the sweet potato fries were tempura. Plenty of bar drinks and specials but don't see a listing of the usual soft drinks, assume they are there. Don't see a kids menu either but lots of families and kids here. It's kinda noisy so kids don't have to sit still here and be too quiet, tho we without would appreciate it. Corner of the Village strip mall, 2 separate outdoor seating. Saw a private party at the front entrance area. Special menu if yo sit at the bar too. Lots of free parking at a garage and outside. Staff friendly but don't go too close to the Happy Hour close times, the computer won't honor the price if it's over even one minute.

Our waitress, Erika, was incredibly friendly and attentive. I ordered the Kimchi Ramen and my wife ordered Spicy Miso Ramen. Both were fantastic and I'd be as bold to say, some of the best ramen I've had in San Antonio.

Bakudan Ramen is a really awesome spot. The atmosphere is clearly anime-focused, which I loved…read more There are a ton of anime decorations everywhere, TVs playing anime while you eat, and even a bar if you're into that. I had a coffee with a spicy tequila twist, which was actually pretty cool. Now let's talk about the Chicharrón Ramen -- honestly, it's pretty badass. Definitely different, but in a good way. It comes with avocado (which I loved), a full seasoned egg (huge plus for me), cilantro, and corn. That alone tells me they're trying to give you a complete, well-thought-out bowl. The broth was spicy and really flavorful. The chicharrón was very soft, which I personally liked a lot. Overall, it was a delicious bowl and something different from your usual ramen experience. I wouldn't say it's an everyday order for me, but it's absolutely worth trying at least once. Definitely recommend giving this item a one-time try off their menu.

The lineup: Bakudan Edamame, Tempura Ramen, Garlic Tonkotsu,…read more The scoop: Nice ramen spot that would be good for families, get togethers and dates. They have an outdoor patio with a few tables that would be perfect for larger parties. Noodles are made fresh daily and you can tell! Came on a busy night but service was still stellar. The Yays: Plenty of choices for pescatarians and vegetarians! Tempura Ramen was delicious. Tasty broth, tempura was crispy, and the thin noodles were fresh and cooked to perfection. Garlic Tonkotsu was a hit. Broth was delicious, pork was on point, and the thick noodles were perfect. Bakudan Edamame was a good light appetizer. The edamame was made more delectable with the garlic and chili they sprinkled in. If you like spicy, you'll like their chili sauce. There's a 50 cent charge per ramen bowl but I recommend asking for it on the side so you can modify it to your liking. One order is plenty for two people. Not listed on their menu but they had fresh Asahi on draft! The Nays: No notes!

We decided to try this place for lunch while we were in the area. As soon as we walked in, we were…read moregreeted and seated right away. Service was very efficient and friendly! For ramen, I recommend the "red" Aka Fuku. For udon noodles, the tofu was delicious as well if you need a vegetarian option. There is a small kids' menu and other non-noodles traditional Japanese dishes available as well. For drinks, there are the standard soft drink options, hot teas(or cold), beer, and wine. The atmosphere is very casual, but not to the point of feeling like a rushed lunch hour. It was not very crowded on our visit, but I noticed they probably get more to-go orders than seated service. Hoka Hoka Fuku is an excellent choice in the area if you're looking to have Japanese food. I can't wait to go back and try this place for dinner.

Located in a strip mall, parking was ample. We didn't have to wait long to get seated. Menu had a variety, but still maintained a simplicity. Ordered my go to anywhere- tonkotsu black. Delicious rich broth and added some sriracha for a kick. Ramen noodles were ok, but would have preferred my fave, udon. I just love the thicker noodles. Server stated udon was a not possibility for the kuro black soup. Friends also ordered the steamed and pan fried chicken gyoza. Service was prompt and establishment was clean. Good food.

With great…read moreprices ( just 50 cents for adding half an egg, compared to the usual $2-$3 dollars elsewhere!) and a wide enough variety to appease those who might not want only ramen, there is no better option. My favorite dish is the shrimp udon and spring rolls. The tempura shrimp is perfectly crispy and fluffy and the udon noodles themselves have the exact amount of bite. If it's cold outside, it'll warm up your stomach and your soul! The place isn't about frills, just good food. Yokai is small and closed on Mondays, but other than that there will be no surprises (other than the delicious flavors!)
