Jessie the bartender was awesome! Both of the spicy ramens were delicious, and the tiger sushi roll was 10/10. The JPop's were also great :-) read more

Not that you anticipate a traditional Japanese experience when the name is Slurping Turtle, but you would be right if you thought this was going to be what a loud, full of hipster shopping at the higher end mall would be. I sat at the bar dining alone as there was a 20-30 minute wait for the legion of high tops at 1pm on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Started with the Takoyaki octopus fritters (6 of them) that had a piece of octopus encased in a breading that is then fried. The sweet tonkatsu sauce worked well with the mayo although I'd cut the amount of mayo in half. It is side by side with the tonkatsu sauce rather than mixed so the mayonnaise can dominate a given bite depending on how you pick it up with your chopsticks. They came right out of the fryer so be sure to wait at least a minute for them to cool and so that you avoid the singe when you pop that first one in whole. The Tan Tan Men ramen had a promised kick although nothing that should deter those who are heat limited. Generous ramen and pieces of pork belly and meatballs. Rich broth that you'd expect. I realize the target clientele is running youthful but I think we'd all like to be able to have a chance to chat so I'd lower the music volume just a bit. Hipster vibes ok if the food is good which it is, but you don't need the volume to achieve either. And shout out to Cayla at the bar. She was quick, attentive without pressure or impatience, and obviously knows how to juggle. read more

Service: waitress Isabella was incredible friendly and she was talkative. Made for a Great first time experience. Ambiance/Atmosphere: inside is a Japanese style dining room. The close high top tables made for conversation. There's also secluded American style dining. The Japanese sushi bar seats are low to the ground and a cool addition. Food: 1. Mango moment beverage has a prominent mango flavor while keeping an alcohol flavor. I'd highly recommend 10 2. Duck fat Fried chicken isn't super crispy but has an excellent flavor. Salted well and some pieces are crispy. The sauce is creamy mayo based and pairs well with the chicken. I'd insist. 9.5. If the chciken was crispier I'd say 10 3. Takoyaki is soft with a slightly crisp shell. Flavor is subtle but does have a nice octopus flavor. the sauces add a nice flavor in the front end and carries majority of the flavor. I'd recommend. 7.5 4. Duck fried chicken ramen. The broth is spicy with a slight sweetness. The chives add a freshness and the corn adds a crunch along with the bean sprouts. That same amazing fried chicken which was somehow more crispy in the ramen. The noodles cooked in house are soft yet chewy. The eggs is soft boiled and absolutely delicious easily my favorite part. The kimchi adds a nice sharpness and extra spice. I'd highly recommend. 9 read more

They had sailor moon playing on a T.V.... That's all I needed to give this place a 5. Kidding! The ramen was delicious! We had to set a reservation since it was busy and we shouldn't have. Me and my sister had to order immediately because we had a concert to go to. The staff got our food out quick. I wish I could have stayed longer to finish watching the shows and enjoying the restaurant itself. read more

We came on a Friday night without reservations and had to wait 45mins. We registered our name and no. and waited for a text message while we wandered the area. I like the modern interior. Tables are mostly bar height with some regular tables on the sides. There's also outside seating and although the heaters were on, nobody was seated there on this cold November night. Food is decent and tasty. Ramen is nowhere near what a ramen tastes like. Soup is basically an Asian broth. I wouldn't say it's not delicious but can't call it ramen. Duck Fat Fried Chicken is crunchy and tasty. My miso soup came cold. When I complained, server apologized saying this is the last bowl and they're making a new pot. Although that's not a good excuse, she quickly replaced it. I will consider coming back when I'm craving for Asian food. It's a good thing to have where Asian food is scarce. For this reason, I gave them 4 stars. read more

Went in on a cold day - we got there right around 6:15 and there was a wait but it was short. They quoted 20 min but we waited about 5 max. The table itself was interesting- high top but the bar stools were screwed to the floor/not moveable and not very comfy. Our waiter was prompt but busy. We got edamame to share (good but nothing overly special), and each got a bowl of ramen. I had the classic (no spice) and it was tasty! The egg was delish and the pork belly tender. The noodles themselves were pretty standard. Pricing was moderate. Definitely a good spot on a cold day! read more

Slurping Turtle - Tokyo Classic Ramen - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I'd passed by slurping turtle a few times this summer but decided to save it for chillier weather. So glad that day finally came because everything here was delish! The ramen broth was super flavorful and I even liked the chili oil drizzle. Fried sushi isn't my fav, but this roll was tasty. My fav part was the salad on top with the jalapeño vinegarette. My server gave great recommendations and kept me company for a bit at the bar. Looking forward to my next visit! read more

Slurping Turtle - Easton, Columbus, OH Visited July 2025 4/5 for the DFFC Miso Ramen alone (continue reading:) The Broth: Steaming hot, layered with rich miso flavor and chili oil warmth. This is the kind of broth you crave when you're under the weather or just need comfort in a bowl. Noodles & Toppings: * Noodles had a nice al dente bounce (not house-made texture, but still solid). * Corn was soft--could use more crunch. * Kimchi? Excellent. Bright, tangy, and worth asking for extra. * Ramen egg was visually great but cooler than I'd prefer, likely prepped ahead. * Fried chicken was crispy and seasoned well, but gets soggy fast if you leave it sitting. Tip: Ask for it on the side. They also serve S&B ramen pepper at the table (tasty, but the fine print warns of BPA exposure--makes you wonder what we're sprinkling without thinking). Service: Friendly but not hovering. My server split my leftovers into separate broth/noodle containers without me asking--a detail that really matters if you plan to reheat. Space & Atmosphere: Very busy on a Tuesday night. Big garage doors open up to the sidewalk for fresh air and people-watching. If you're not into crowds or prefer a quieter meal, consider takeout. Parking: Paid parking in the Easton Preferred Park lot next door--enforced only on Level 1. Be ready with the ParkMobile app or look for free spots nearby. Overall: I've tried all their ramen broths, and the DFFC Miso is the only one I consistently come back for. Haven't branched into their sushi much (I prefer Mr. Sushi in Gahanna for that). Bottom Line: Broth worth the trip Get your chicken on the side Kimchi is underrated Paid parking is Level 1 only Would I return? For this bowl, yes. Would I dine in again? Maybe--but more likely I'd grab it to-go and savor in peace. read more

Slurping Turtle has been on my list to visit for a while. Finally we had a chance to visit. Once we entered the place, it was half empty but the guy at the front told us that we have to wait about 1/2 hr, So we waited since I really wanted to try their Ramen. Once we were seated, our server came with the menu. She went over the menu and gave us some recommendation. Our server was really sweet and friendly. We ordered the Red Curry Ramen and the Roasted Chicken Bao. In general ramen noodle is on the salty side, but this ramen was extremely salty, but the boa was decent. I was really looking forward to the ramen but unfortunately the food fell short for me and waiting 1/2 hr to eat salty, mediocre good will not be a repeat. read more

Met a friend for lunch at Slurping Turtle. It was a first-time visit for us both! Thought it was lunch time, it wasn't busy at all and were seated quickly. Fun, upbeat pop music was playing and the space was spotless. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and had the best server (shout out to Chris!) He walked us through their extensive menu, too, which was great -- and also incredibly difficult to choose from! We both went with their classic shoyu ramen; me because I wanted to see how they approached the classic and my friend because it was her first time trying ramen!) Broth was very flavorful, albeit a bit thinner than others I've had. The eggs were perfect, as was the pork belly (big pieces, too, which was very appreciated). The bowl itself isn't the largest, but it filled us both up. For $17, it's pretty expensive for what it is but I would still visit again if I'm in the area. The really nice manager also asked us hoe our lung was, which was really kind. The service here is top tier. I hope that never changes! read more

Slurping Turtle - Classic shoyu ramen with pork belly - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Enjoyed an early dinner here with my sister over the weekend. Their patio is perfect for prime people-watching and the interior is modern and sleek. Food quality was good, but portions are somewhat small. For the price point, I'd rather go to a more authentic place for sushi. We really enjoyed their drinks. The mango moment cocktail was great, and comes with a nice slice of candy to top it off. Also enjoyed the red dragon roll. read more

I was not overly impressed with my experience at Slurping Turtle. We arrived on a cold winter evening, and upon arrival, the gentleman at the front told us there was a 25-minute wait (even though there were several open tables). Seeing how this is the only ramen place nearby, we waited to be seated. Once seated, we had a great experience with our server. She explained the menu to us and checked in with us throughout the evening. The ramen itself was not that great - it was too salty for my liking, and there was not enough protein in it. I did enjoy the baos, and although, we didn't get it, the Duck Fat Fried Chicken that some of the other tables ordered looked good. With so many great dining options in the Easton area, and with so many great ramen options in the Columbus area, it's unlikely I will be back here. read more

So comforting and packed with ingredients. 10/10 recommend! read more

First time ever at Slurping Turtle and I have to say I was impressed. Located right in Easton. There was plenty of parking around and it's right on the corner. They have plenty of seating indoor and an outdoor patio as well. The vibes in there were super cool and very well done. Our server was very nice and accommodating. Our food came out pretty quick and it was delicious!! The smells, looks, and taste of my dish was excellent on a cold rainy day. I got the shrimp ramen and added the spicy sauce to it. ( so good if you like heat). I'm not over this way very often but would go back again. read more

I absolutely adore this place. Every time I come here there is a short wait time but, once we are seated the service is great. The food is truly delicious. It's refreshing to see different options on the menu instead of traditional items that are usually at every other restaurant. This restaurant truly sets itself a part from the rest! This was my first time trying ramen & I had a great experience. I cant wait to go back and try their other ramen options on the menu. read more

The location is good and the modern decor was nice. Our server was very nice and food was brought out quickly. As for the actual food, we had shrimp stir fry, shrimp ramen and fried Brussel sprout. The stir fry was just okay as it did not have much flavor. The ramen and the Brussel sprouts were tremendous. My daughter talked about the Brussel sprouts for the next hour after we left. Definitely will be back but will not get the stir fry next time. read more

I ordered takeout here while I was staying nearby for work. There is no online ordering,m so you have to call, but the order was ready within 15 minutes and very fresh! I ordered the small sashimi plate which came with 3 pieces each of salmon, tuna, and yellowtail. They were big pieces and very good! The duck fat fried chicken spicy ramen was a 4/5 - good, but did not blow me away. The duck fat fried chicken, which I guess they are known for, was similar to most other karaage chicken I've had before. The size of the chicken bites (3) was a pretty good portion though. I also appreciated having a full soft boiled egg instead of just 1 half of an egg. The broth was packaged separately; the flavor was 3.5/5. I liked the toppings (kimchi, corn, green onions, and possibly bean sprouts). I think the noodles are homemade; pretty good, but not "craveable" in my opinion. The interior is a cute vibe with the turtles! They also have a location in Ann Arbor, MI. I would order from here again, but would probably try the pork belly instead of the chicken if I got ramen! I would also be interested to try the specialty sashimi. read more

This place came highly recommended and I was very much looking forward to it, but unfortunately it fell very short for me. Service was super friendly, but really slow overall even just for drinks. I did enjoy the ambiance of the place alright and the restroom area had a cool anime mural. The food unfortunately fell very short for me though. The Shoyu ramen had waaay too much fish sauce in it and overpowered every other flavor in the bowl. The maki roll presentation was a little sloppy and the flavor was practically nonexistent which was weird considering I was getting a spicy tuna roll. The fried chicken was nice and crispy with good presentation, but again, where is the flavor? The mulled beverages were delicious once they arrived fwiw, but the drinks and ambiance would not bring me back for the mediocre meal. read more

Was so glad to find a slurping turtle in Ohio after we loved our experiences so much at the Ann Arbor Michigan location! We went on a busy Saturday evening and there was a wait, but they were transparent about this and we were able to walk around. Just be prepared this location is busy and for good reason! Everything was perfectly prepared and fresh and our server was very snappy with the service which was great. We had the duck fat fried chicken and some sushi rolls and nigiri. My favorite was the chutoro nigiri. Out of this world delicious. read more

We were seating right away when we first walked in. The ramen was super delicious and the serve was attentive to placing the spice on the side. The portion was large enough to do carry out for leftovers. The atmosphere was overall calm and the space was vibrant. A great ramen joint in the middle of Columbus. read more

Love this place. Eat here every time I stay at the Easton. I sit at the bar because I'm usually alone. My only disparaging remark is being able to hear the wait staff complain about other patrons. I get it people are annoying but the bar is within earshot. The food is delish and most of the servers are terrific - especially the woman who runs the bar. Just a note ...people can hear you. People are all human. Good days and bad. read more

Slurping Turtle - Spicy Tan Ramen - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Our server, Ania, is terrific and should get a raise! Food is good too. Nice atmosphere.

The food was good, though I don't think it is worth the price point. The tofu bao was fluffy and savory, and the accompanying salad was a nice fresh accompanyment. The spicy edamame was tasty, about on par with the one served at a rather popular sushi chain. The red curry was savory and tasty, but the flavor of peanut felt a little out of place, and I wish there was some acid, like a lime wedge, to balance out a dish that is very oily from the deep fried vegetables. If you are vegan, ramen isn't an option, only rice noodles, and I thought they were a bit mushy/overcooked. The dish is lacking in protein as well (tofu would be nice). Service was kind, quick, and helpful. The ambiance is fine, dining hall style, nothing to write home about. I was pleased it was not too loud on a Saturday night. I appreciate the option for a seasonal cocktail but I certainly did not think the peach fizz was worth $15. I came here because of the hype. I'm glad I tried it, but I won't go back. There are better ramen options in Columbus. read more

One of my favorite restaurants! The food is delicious. As a vegan I get the edamame and the red curry ramen with rice noodles! I love it and recommend it all the time! The service is great and it is a sit down restaurant. Some of the tables are long tables that others share with you but it has never been a problem and usually people are a seat apart if they are from another party. read more

12/30/25 - Obnoxious, server John refused to serve my wife and her friends because he didn't like them. He suggested they were drunk and he didn't like the way they "acted". Nobody in the party was drunk, nobody was on drugs. Just 3 people wanting dinner after a long day at work. Drinks ordered = 3 glasses of water, 1 red wine. My wife is absolutely the best person I know. Those servers have no idea how hurtful they have been to such a gentle, kind soul. Having been in the restaurant business, 3 people at Slurping Turtle would be reprimanded and perhaps fired. John, Anna, and the host. A formal letter has been sent to GM Boggs. Clearly, John (Jon) didn't want to work yesterday and he forgot why he is a server. We won't be back, we won't buy any more gift cards, and we refuse to recommend ST to anyone. read more

We didn't have reservations but they were able to seat us at the bar quickly and it was great time. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Service was quick and they were really nice/helpful. I got the original ramen, duck fat fried chicken, and 3 baos. Ramen was good but the pork could have been better. It wasn't melt in your mouth pork pieces. I loved the yolky egg and bamboo. Next time I want to try the tonkatsu bc I do like a creamier broth. The noodles were delicious and chewy. The fried chicken was my favorite. Crispy and came with a spicy sauce. We got the chicken, pork, and veggie bao. All very good. The veggie one tasted like an egg roll! Oh and I got the lychee drink and it was so good! And pretty! I was confused at the bathrooms lol but quickly figured it out. It was single rooms with toilets and the sinks were outside. read more
