Me and my daughter went here before going in for the night and we don't really know too much about what we like in ramen but the chicken and taste we looking for. They were so helpful and knowledgeable about everything from appetizers to desserts and with a great attitude from everyone even with it being the end of the night.WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK read more

Lunch ramen on a Saturday. Service was slow to start but attentive then. With a slow crowd, it surprises me that it took some times to prep a bowl of ramen. Now even more surprising, it's the lack of Kirin beers on a Saturday. Ramen broth tasted good. Ramen was good. Only two pieces of pork. Overall is a good spot for dates or groups. Parking was available. Overall ok satisfying ! read more

RAKKAN Ramen - Galleria - Ramen Near Me - Houston, Texas

We have seen Rakkan for a while and had been meaning to try them out. It's in a big strip mall so plenty of parking. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We opted for indoor. Inside they have tables and booths. Once seated, staff explained that their broth is all plant based. There were plenty to choose from. We started with the sushi flight that composed of 6 nigiris. They were delicious! Highly recommended to try them. It may not compare to high end sushi but still pretty decent. We ordered the Amber ramen and Spicy Quartz ramen. Amber is soy based soup with slices of char shiu + egg.. It was a bit salty for my taste and the char shiu was on the fatty side. Noodles were firm. Spicy quartz comes with slices of chicken breast + egg. This was recommended by our server. The broth was yummy. I'll order it again. Check them out if you're in the area. One of the better ramen locations close by the Galleria. read more

Have been meaning to stop in since they opened - finally made it. Sadly...overall it was mediocre. The restaurant was not busy upon arrival - less than 12 people, and getting the basics was a struggle. Had the pork gyoza appetizer...nothing outstanding. The small poke was the size of an appetizer. Miso ramen was okay. Not a repeat - too many other choices in our city. read more

Absolutely loved that the place was packed -- you know the food is going to be good. Came in during Friday dinner rush. Servers and bartenders were busy and kept the service high quality. Quartz Vegan ramen was amazing. It's still an intimate location so you'll get your food out in no time. They have an outdoor dining area, inside bar, as well as the main family tables, high top, & booths. If you're looking for some tasty ramen, Rakkan is the place. read more

Recently had dinner at my favorite ramen spot in Houston. Tried the vegan quartz first time and it was amazing added extra broccolini; it was delicious with the mushrooms. Also, we ordered the garlic pork fried rice. It's really good balance of spice and flavor and is newer entree on the men. Must save its the best I've had from a Japanese restaurant. Also, the salmon sushi is so flavorful and silky melts in your mouth delicious and perfect light bite. I really like that their ramen because its vegan based broth and not oily like others I had. Plus, I feel it's much healthier. They also have a nice bar and have buy one get one tap beer for $1on Saturday's. The service is always consistent and wait staff eager to please the customer. A must try if you like good ramen for good value. read more

This spot is amazing! I can't wait to come back and visit them again! Possibly the best Pho I've had

I hate that I'm writing this review. But BEWARE if you ask for delivery. I selected the restaurant to deliver / their preferred vendor with no name, and the delivery person didn't knock on my door so I had no idea my food was here and it was cold by the time I found it. I called the restaurant and they said there was "nothing we can do." So I asked who their preferred delivery service was because they told me to take it up with them, and they didn't know. Worst customer service I've encountered in this area. Can't / won't do anything and don't know who delivered even though it's their preferred delivery service. I'm sure they will respond w something smart, like I should have checked and followed my food on their app or the website or whatever. But I was working. I thought for sure they would knock on the door since I did NOT select contactless delivery. Trash. All the way around. read more

I usually go to the Heights location of Rakkan Ramen and love it, but decided to try the Galleria spot this time. The food was good as usual, but the service was a bit off. When we ordered, the waiter never asked what kind of meat we wanted, and both my friend's and my ramen came out with chicken instead of pork. Not sure why they would assume chicken, but it was dry and not very flavorful. Would've much preferred the pork like we usually get. Still decent overall, but the experience just wasn't the same. Will much prefer going to the heights location. read more

Came for dinner and really enjoyed it! I was seated very quickly and they accommodated my friend who brought her baby. Service was kind and friendly throughout our meal. I liked the spaciousness of the restaurant and plenty of parking spots out front. The food was enjoyable. The spicy cucumber was crunch and had a nice spice to it. I ordered the spicy quartz and it had a great flavor but I found it not that spicy. I loved that they had a number of vegan offerings on the menu! read more

I am very disappointed with the lack of care and customer service. I really liked the ramen but the last two times we have ordered delivery, they have failed to add the chili oil packets -- which make a difference in the taste and I feel are essential to ramen. This time we placed a door dash delivery and I personally called the restaurant and asked them to make sure to add the chili oil - I was told the notes from uber or door dash don't appear for them but they assured they would add some packets now that I called. Well they did not, again. It's very disappointing because what's the point of talking to an employee and being assured something will be done, when they are not. It shows the lack of care and respect for customers. read more

Vegetable based broth - tasted light/clean. Nice that they have vegan options. We tried the creamy and spicy miso. The broccolini in the creamy ramen was quite tasty. Spice level was mild. Everything was a-okay - salmon sushi, cucumbers. Lemonade was not our favorite. read more

I went there twice since this location open. The first time I went there the service was pretty fast. There were so many helped and server. The second time I went there on Sunday night. I saw only one server. The service was slow which I understood because the server was lack of help. The food was good. I loved grilled pork for toppings but not chicken. It was a little dry for me so the second time, I ordered pork instead of chicken. Spicy edamame had no flavor but chicken karake was amazing with spicy sauce on side. Big parking lot. read more

So Rakkan Ramen is new to the galleria area so my friends and I decided to check it out. We missed their buy one, get one free ramen during the opening but we were able to stop by a few weeks ago. It was a Monday so it wasn't too crowded and we were greeted by the staff as soon as we walked in. Our waiter brought over the menu and gave us the run down of what they offered and made some recommendations. I opted for the vegan bao as a starter and the spicy vegan quartz for my meal. It didn't take long for our food to come out and the bao came first. I enjoyed it but I wish it wasn't as expensive. Then again, what isn't expensive these days. It is on their happy hour menu so I'll be taking advantage of that soon. Then the ramen came. They made a mistake and didn't make mine spicy but it was a quick fix. The ramen was delicious and my friends even got extra noodles because the broth was yummy. We were there for about two hours and the service was impeccable. Our waiter was energetic, personable and really knew his stuff when it came to the menu. The ambiance is also inviting, clean and very calm. Will definitely be back. read more

This is new around my work area and it's super delicious they have great flavors of different and unique ramen. Their portions are generous and flavorful. I have gotten different ramens to go for work and it's been great. I love the gyoza and miss the shrimp shui mai they had. You can order on line or in person either way they are prompt. read more

Thank you for fixing my late night ramen craving! Our server was really nice and helpful. Came in around a 9pm on a saturday night and it wasn't packed. Got seated right away without resy. Also didn't know that they were doing HRW! For a small app, i got the spicy cucumber. Wasn't spicy at all which i didn't kind, but they were huge cuts of it and nice and crunchy. Ordered their limited special Creamy Truffle Ramen but added pork and seasoned egg. You can smell the truffle aroma as soon as it gets placed on the table. Smelled so good! The broth was nice and creamy, not too salty either. Ramen was nice and bouncy/qq. Liked the addition of the fried broccoli as well. Seasoned egg was beautifully cooked. Mushrooms, tofu and corn were yummy too. Overall, this Rakkan ramen surprised me vs the heights location in a good way. Deff would return! Parking - within the plaza (plenty) Restrooms - Clean single stalled with fancy thick napkins read more

Amazing ramen and great service. Nice and low key spot. Bar has a very good selection of spirits if you prefer.

Food at this location is just as good as all the other locations - delicious! This location feels bigger and a bit more upscale as it has a fancy bar at the back. We got the spicy beef gyoza, amber and Quartz ramen. The broths here have a lot of depth despite being vegetarian, which really surprised us the first time we came. I've also had the pork chashu rice bowl and it's fantastic. Ramen to go is also packed well and travels well. Our server Thomas was excellent! read more

Im addicted to this place! I love the spicy garnet with chicken but I rotate through all the ramen. I also like the sushi flight for $9.99 and sake and beer specials. My favorite thing is it's a healthier version of ramen but just as delicious. The bar is relaxed and I always seem to meet interesting people there. read more

Ordered takeout and while the taste was good, the noodles were cold and the broth was just warm so when I combined them it was lukewarm ramen, not very good at all. They also provided no silverware or chopsticks which is very annoying as I am at a hotel read more

We were around 10 folks. They gave my Garnet Vegan Ramen to someone else. It took forever to receive another vegan ramen. I had arrived at 5:30 p.m. we probably ordered at about 5:50 p.m. I didn't receive my vegan ramen until 7 p.m. I was starving. They need more wait staff. The broths are probably already prepared. They bring three small containers of sauces to put on the broth. My ramen was good but nothing to write home about. I asked for a fork, and the waiter looked bothered. Despite the delay in my meal, I was charged an automatic 20 percent tip. read more

Rakkan Ramen is a very cute ramen restaurant in the Houston Galleria area. Devyn our server greeted us as soon as we entered. Got us drinks and our appetizer started. The goyza were really good also. I'm a big fan of dumplings and these were great. Next Devyn bought out our ramen. The Spicy Quartz is just the perfect amount of spice. It's not to spicy where you can't eat it but spicy enough to get your nose running alittle bit. Overall dinning experience was great and will definitely be back to try other dishes. read more

This was our first time dining at Rakkan Ramen, and it did not disappoint! We started with the spicy edamame, which was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. I ordered the Garnet ramen, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. The broth is vegetable-based rather than the typical pork, but it was still rich and satisfying. Overall, I highly recommend Rakkan Ramen and will definitely be back. Steven, our waiter, was also wonderful--friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Great place for a unique and tasty ramen experience! read more

Food was amazing!! Service was impeccable!! Ambiance was great! Liked that it was quiet!

Grand Opening was definitely a success! DJ on the decks and green tea latte while we waited for our table? Yes and yes. I've been to RAKKAN before so I am familiar with their fantastic menu selection includes a variety of vegan ramen options and a long list of delicious appetizers to choose from. My favorites are Amber, a tradition soy based vegetable broth that is light and fragrance. Spicy Quartz, a creamy spicy miso also a vegetable broth that is rich in flavor with a touch of heat that takes your ramen to the next umami level. Takoyaki, the perfect savory bite to prepare your taste buds for a hot bowl of ramen. I love the new location, the establishment is located in one of most affluent district with so much foot traffic and I have no doubt RAKKAN will continue to deliver satisfying services and amazing food to patrons. read more

Service was great! The noodles tasted like cardboard. I got the Garnet miso. Okay but wouldn't go back again.

The hostess little Asian lady had a bad attitude the whole Resturant had 1 table seated and I asked to sit at the booth table for 4 but she told me I can't. so she took me to a different 4 person table and I then asked why can't we just sit at the booth 4 person table and she kept saying because it's 4 people. Nothing made any sense... so we just walked out and never going back again! read more
