My shoyu ramen was very good, wonderful broth, great noodles and bamboo shoots, and a very flavorful soft boiled egg. The chashu was fairly small, but it was still a great bowl. My partner's tonkotsu was not as good as the shoyu. Nothing stood out as bad, but the broth was weak and the fungus was mediocre. It did have a very generous amount of chashu. The service was great and the atmosphere was impeccable. I will likely return.

Across the board, everyone agreed: it was amazing. The servers were friendly, attentive, and checked in often to make sure we were doing well. That said, a few items were unavailable during our Sunday evening visit, including the pork belly, which was a bit disappointing. I also wish the bowls came with a bit more broth by default, we ended up ordering an extra serving for $4. If you're a broth lover, I'd definitely recommend adding the extra; it's worth it.

The broth is rich, perfectly seasoned, and incredibly flavorful on its own -- but the Death Sauce, it takes the ramen to another level. The heat is bold without overpowering the depth of the broth, and it creates the perfect balance of spice and umami. The staff is very friendly who are there to make sure you get what you like. If you're a ramen fan in DFW and haven't tried this place yet, you're definitely missing out

My one criticism is that the chashu was thin, lacked a bit of char, and was in small pieces, so I didn't feel like I got much. But the broth was pretty good and the service was kind. I found the price for a bowl just a tad steep, but nothing crazy. My friend mentioned that he liked the curry tonkotsu that he got but that his chashu tasted too much like bacon for him. I did want to mention also that I noted an extended vegan ramen menu while browsing for what I was getting. There was at least 6-8 flavors of vegan ramen. This would be a great stop for vegans!

I got the Bulgogi bento, and all of it was just okay. The edamame was actively kind of flavorless, the bulgogi was sweeter than I would prefer with way more veggies than actual meat, and everything was just kind of alright rather than standout. Bf generally liked his sushi but said he'd gotten better elsewhere. The reason I bump this to 4 star instead of 3 is due to the waitress bringing out two additional dishes for free to our group. These two were generally popular among the group, though I personally didn't like them. I don't think it was gross or anything, but I felt it was average for what I'm used to.

We visited on a Monday evening with a party of 6. We called ahead and were told a table would be…read moreready, but when we arrived, the server still had to push tables together for us. The restaurant wasn't busy at the time, so it was no big deal, but worth noting. The service was actually the highlight of the night, and earned this review one additional star simply because of the effort involved. Else it would be a 3 star review. There was only one server running the entire front of house while the restaurant got progressively busier, and only two chefs in the kitchen. Despite being swamped, the server worked her tail off. She didn't mess up a single order for our large group and kept things moving. I greatly appreciated her hard work. Appetizers (5/5): The wait for food was noticeable due to the staffing, but the appetizers were worth it. We ordered the Edamame, Yatai Gyoza, Agedashi Tofu, and Takoyaki, and all of them were delicious. Entrees (3/5): Unfortunately, the main courses were a bit basic compared to the starters. The Tonkotsu Ramen was strictly average; I've definitely had better broth and noodles elsewhere. If you are looking for the top-tier quality izakaya, Mr. Max Izakaya in Irving is hands down better option. However, you have to wait an hour for a table there.

The chef was working away inside the replica street stall. The food arrived quickly, and was delicious! So much flavor! Everything new was somehow even better than the dish we tried before it. So good, so tasty! If we come back for another visit, Yatai is now on our list of restaurants to eat at again!

There were only like 2-4 other people dining at the restaurant at the time we visited, so it wasn't more than a 5-10 minute wait. When my ramen came, I noticed dried up food on the outside of my bowl, and the ramen (Oni Reaper) was not my favorite. The broth almost tasted cheesy. I also tried the broth of the rich tonkotsu (not pictured) and it lacked flavor. I'll probably give the deep Ellum location a try... eventually.

Having lived in Hawaii, we ate sushi, sashimi, and poke on a regular basis. Finding spots like this allows us to create new memories while also feeling a bit nostalgic for the flavors we love. We might have gone a little overboard, but everything was incredible! We ordered the Crunchy Eel Roll, Hamachi Nigiri, and Tuna Nigiri, along with two of the EBESU Course menus. My husband had the Chirashi Don and I went with the Toro Tekka Don. Love, love, love. As you can see, it was a lot of food, but every single piece was cooked and cut to perfection.

I got gyoza and Katsu Don, and my partner got a Charashi Bowl and Red Clam sushi. The gyoza I'd say was above average and pleasantly crispy. The provided salad was pleasant with a strong citrusy ginger flavor. The Red Clam sushi had wasabi hidden underneath the meat, so keep that in mind if you're a spice baby like myself. My partner described the Charashi bowl as good, especially for the price. My Katsu Don is where I felt everything fell a little flat. It was overly sweet, the rice underneath tasted a bit stale and like nothing, and the katsu itself was a bit too moist and no longer crispy on the outside. However, I must note that it was an impressive $13, when I feel the usual is more like over $20, for a decent amount. The waitstaff brought us these lovely pre-peeled and cut oranges with the check and they were a nice touch to the meal. Overall we had a decent, pleasant experience here!
