Trip #2 within 3 weeks of my first trip. Was back at Dave and Busters for some couple bonding fun and we hit up Rayaki again. Just as great as our first time. We opened with the pork goyza, followed by the One Piece Roll (spicy tuna with avocado), and shared the black garlic ramen to which we ordered a chicken skewer and a cube steak skewer. Everything was cooked to perfection, every had flavor and the plating presentations are works of culinary art. Come hungry. read more

Rayaki - Philadelphia - Ramen Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The food was actually really good and the decoration was very unique yet classy in a way. Once you're seated, you order off of a paper menu that you mark with the rest of your party and they bring out the food almost immediately. I tried the gyoza and fries as well as miso ramen. Gyoza: I wouldn't order again because the edges were tough and hard like they were frozen and undercooked while the flavor was like green tea- in a bitter way. Fries: I want a fan of them but everyone else in my party liked them. There was also a lot. Miso ramen: this was really good!! I normally do not like ramen but this was delicious. I loved that it came with egg, pork belly, seaweed, and corn. The noodles were a good combo of bouncy and soft. The broth was addictive. Overall, I would come back for the ramen but not the appetizers. read more

I always love it here, I've never had a bad experience. Food is always good and reliable for what I'm craving. Service is always great, very attentive and even so the crowd is usually small. And now they have sushi! How exciting. From what I've tried so far it's good sushi! read more

So my kid is somewhat of an anime expert and I'm a n00b so with the gimmick of an anime themed restaurant I thought to surprise her and come here for lunch. Even before getting out of the car, she was looking through the side door and said something to the effect that there was an anime character she recognized. We got inside and were seated quickly in one of the nine or ten booths available with five empty before 12pm on a Sunday. There were also a dozen or so tables set up for groups of four. My kid was able to point out about 95% of the characters on the walls, statues, and figurines and also what the red neon clouds on the ceiling represented (I don't remember). To order, the paper menus are on each table and you mark on the side what you want. The food came out rather quickly and very tasty. My kid was more than happy to point out how to correctly pronounce some of the foods as she recognized them from "Food Wars." To drink, my kid had a mango milk tea which she quite enjoyed and I had a nice sweet Rainbow Cloud in which about a quarter of the glass was loaded with chopped mangos and blueberries along with some kiwi slices. There was too much ice and not enough drink but being able to put the ice in the separate water glass made the task of eating the leftover fruit an easier one. For food, we shared the fried squid appetizer which was tender and not overcooked. I thought it looked small in portion but we each had enough and the mayonnaise dip it came with was good. The pieces were small tentacles. The ramens were very good and came in decent sized deep bowls. The fried chicken and the shrimp tempura came separate but with the ramens. I almost thought it was a wrong order to send back but was advised this is how they are served. The chicken was an exceptionally tender single sliced thigh with a great coating. My kid said she mostly liked the tempura but thought it was too much batter. She only got two with the ramen and thought three or four should have been given. The ramens themselves both featured chicken based broth with a hefty amount of noodles, a so-so poached egg, nice grasses and gingers and we finished them with our chopsticks and plastic ladles. Service was fast but as the restaurant filled up, you could tell that they could have used more help on the floor to assist. The bathrooms were mostly clean but I've been in worse. There's more hand-painted anime in there, too. It was interesting to see other people who know about anime pointing out all the characters on the walls and how they relate to the anime world. I felt that the food was a bit on the expensive side, but we both had a great meal and really, that's what your coming for - good food. Especially that chicken. $67 including tip for two adults. One appetizer, two teas, and two ramen bowls. We would come back. read more

Like Beyoncé said, 10 10 10s across the board. Venue was beautiful, and an anime lover's dream. The staff was warm and inviting, the summer fruit tea was fantastic, the restaurant was very clean which is always my biggest qualm, and the food? THE FOOD WAS IT! If you've been wanting to try out Rayaki, now is a very good time. There's something on the menu for everyone! Did I mention the noodles are handmade in house?! And the art is hand painted?! come check this place out ASAP. Thank you to Rayaki staff for making us feel so welcome and very well fed! I'll definitely be bringing/recommending friends and family come here. read more

I drove here in the middle of a snow so you know it's good! I had this place before over in Jersey but forgot to leave a review. The food was great and came out fast. The waiter was kind, attentive, and had a great vibe. The weather impacted how quiet the place was but it served to be a calm anime futuristic experience inside. Overall I give this place a 9/10 read more

Rayaki - Philadelphia - Entrance - Ramen Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Rayaki Chapter 5 finally open! My husband and I have been waiting when will they ever be open especially due to Covid, their process got delayed. It's possible that both of us were having a higher expectation on Rayaki that today's visit actually wasn't as great as we thought. We both have been to the Cottman (Chapter 4) location and have returned a few times. That location wasn't too bad when we tried out. But this Franklin Mill (Chapter 5) was quite disappointing. I liked the interior design but not so much of the food quality and service. Quality was only so so. My husband ordered a Beef ramen. The beef is not too bad, but the soup base was a bit too salty. I had the black garlic ramen. The cha siu was pretty good, the soup base was acceptable, but it was not hot enough. It's like the soup was being kept warm instead. I also ordered their soft shell crab bao to try. The sauce is good but I feel like the bao is lacking some other ingredients besides the sauce, half a soft shell crab and a piece if lettuce with the bun. Other places might add a little texture like onion, cucumber, or even a slice of tomato. Something to make the taste stand out more. I believe there are room for improvement on both the quality and the service. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE their ramen. Absolutely delicious. Their sushi is really good as well and staff is friendly.

I ordered takeout ramen and the broth was ehh... but the noodles were good. This place just opened so might have to try dine in and give it another try. I love that it's close to me and I don't have to travel into the city for ramen plus it has a parking lot. The inside is very spacious and colorful. I love the art on the wall. read more

I came here after visiting the mall and wanted some ramen. My boyfriend and I love the anime theme and decor. Service is okay, but could be more tentative (refill water, check to see if we need anything, etc.). The menu has all the popular appetizers and even milk tea. We had the black garlic and tonkatsu ramen. Both are good. The broth could be more flavorful and the Cha shu could be thinner and more tender. The egg would be nicer seasoned. I wish the ramen came with the wavy noodles that I like. Also the ramen didn't come out piping hot. For the price, portion is a bit small compared to other ramen places. We also had vegetable spring rolls. It was delicious and piping hot. It's a neat place for anime fans to enjoy a bowl of ramen and reminisce about Naruto scenes. It's also a spot for kids. I'm giving the extra 1 star for the decor. Without the anime theme, it's just another ramen place among the many. P.S. Makes you want to download Crunchyroll again. read more

Absolutely lovedddd this place! this is their 5 location (chapter 5) and I hope they open many more! After a long day of shopping in the mall, this is the perfect place to grab lunch or dinner. If you're an anime lover (like myself) you will love the ambiance-- it's filled with Naruto, Demon Slayer, Spy x Family, and more!! The food was outstanding. I had no idea until we sat down, but the ramen noodles are homemade, in house and it absolutely makes a difference- the noodles were so silky and delicious! We also had a few other apps, gyoza, perfectly lightly fried squid, seasonal soft shell crab bao buns and a few robatayaki skewers to split. My husband also tried the pork mazemen, which was beautifully plated and so creamy and decadent! We washed everything down with some fruit tea and milk teas. Can't wait to go back! Definitely check this place out if you're in the area! read more

1st time to this chain there are 4 others in the area. This one just opened this past week. I wasn't sure what to expect from the online menu except it's street food, skewers and Bao and ramen and Bubble Tea. When you come in & are seated there are paper menus that you mark what you want and give it to the server that sends the order to the kitchen. Prices are on the menu. I opted to not get ramen today, I will save that for another trip. I ordered gyoza, bao and some robatayaki(skewers) . I enjoyed everything. The squid was NOT overcooked as it easily can be. Ramen add-ins like togarashi and chili oil and soy sauce are at the table in case you want a little extra spice. The decor is anime with Totoro at the door and walls decorated with anime characters like Naruto. A nice amount of neon to give you that Tokyo street vibe. I will come back. The prices are not inexpensive but the food and drink seem to be quality so it is worth the splurge. read more

Staff were attentive and super nice. This was a pit stop on a road trip back home for the family to grab some lunch. Kids enjoyed the decor as did I. The portions were good. The karage appetizer was def a decent sized portion for sharing. What I love about this place was they make the ramen on site. You can see the machine at work. read more

Very nice staff except they kept forgetting about 2 orders of bao buns....when reminded, we got one order, as we were eating our ramen we asked about the second order. "Oh its being cooked " and at this time we were ready to leave so asked for the first order of bao buns to be put in a bag for take home with the other order "you're still cooking" . We got a lot of head nods in acknowledgement but guess what I was charged for and never received? Yep, the 2nd order of bao buns. My fault for not checking before we left but the bags were stapled shut so nicely! read more

Saw this open 15 mins away. We ordered the Black Garlic Ramen which is so bland with no black garlic flavor at all and the Miso Ramen which was okay. Along with the Rayaki Fries. The place is very nice. But definitely had better ramen elsewhere. I prefer driving farer for better ramen. I was hoping a good ramen place near home. Very disappointed. read more

Very cool atmosphere, and I'm not even into anime. My husband and kids appreciated more than me. Boba tea was cheaper than anywhere else in the area and delicious. The shrimp, chicken, and chicken tonkatsu ramen were all so good. The broth is flavorful and complex. We will definitely be back! read more
