    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.

    We sat in a little area behind the bar that I didn't know was there. Great service and a little more of a quit area. Food was great and the waiter was awesome (Jacob) he made it for us.

    Tokyo Classic Ramen

    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!

    DFFC Miso Ramen

    This was my second time visiting Slurping Turtle, and it absolutely did not disappoint! The atmosphere is great, and the service is consistently excellent. They have an amazing variety of options on the menu, making it hard to choose, but the food is always top-notch. I started with the gyoza dumplings for an appetizer, which were perfectly cooked and flavorful. For the main course, I highly recommend the duck fat fried chicken ramen--it is incredibly rich, savory, and exactly what you want in a bowl of ramen. I'm already looking forward to my third visit!

    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.

    Food was amazing! Service was amazing and the vibe was amazing! And pretty reasonable prices

    Jade was a great server. Kept our drinks filled, got our food out quick and was very friendly. We came around 1800 on a Friday evening. Great service. Great food.

    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.

    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.

    Classic shoyu ramen with pork belly
    Eve R.

    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!

    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.

    Baos.

Although it was too early in the morning for all the stores to be open, it is a lovely, cute, quaint place. The food stalls looked wonderful and they even had a little gift section.

So I was a little taken back you got a little bit of everything in this location is really small. And the parking is terrible but what can you expect for downtown? I had to take my ticket inside and if you purchased something from one of the vendors, they have to give you a QR code for the parking garage and it's two dollars for parking. We had Indian food and the food was delicious. The young lady behind the counter was so nice. She let us taste the chicken before purchasing our meals. The food in the North market is expensive. It was almost $40 for two people to eat. Then we had Jennie's ice cream afterwards and it was $15 for two scoops of ice cream. Customer service was great as all the vendors were awesome and explained everything to us. Is this something that I would do again know just because of the parking and most of the restaurants inside of Markette is not something that I would normally eat very clean. There is a second floor for you to sit. I don't know if they had an elevator. I didn't see one, but I know there are stairs to the second floor. Very busy long lines and you feel like you have to rush to order something because all lines were so long.

Quick and attentive service. We started with crispy dumplings (6), crispy egg rolls (2), and a scallion pancake. Bing, their crepe, wasn't available our night. My dining companions loved the pancake - for me perhaps a bit too much drizzled sauce. It was helpfully quartered when brought to the table so sharing was easy. The dumplings were indeed crispy and probably my favorite with a standard dark dipping sauce. The egg rolls were standard and perhaps a bit undersized and over fried, but a good creamy dipping sauce was a pivot away from the sweet chili sauce that usually accompanies such apps. Ramen is clearly the focus of the menu and three of us had ramen with chicken and one with pork. They spoke favorably of the broth and the combos of mushrooms, boiled egg, greens. I had the rice vermicelli with chicken that they called a salad. I was expecting the classic Vietnamese staple but this one had some adaptations, perhaps to a fusion or one might say less ethnic nod. Small things but the ample portion served in a small bowl made it hard to mix the rice noodles, lettuce, carrot, cucumber and chicken that is a common approach to the dish after drowning all the ingredients in both sweet sauce (nuoc cham), siracha and/or hoisin sauce. It only came with the nuoc cham. They brought Siracha when I asked for it, but I'm a fan of having these condiments on the table standard. Again, had the sense that the business lunch crowd that is probably the primary audience isn't likely to be as focused on the more authentic ingredients. The chicken was also not grilled and sliced but had a pleasant preparation. Just know it won't be the charred flavor that is so common. Finally, not to obsess on this one dish, but cutting the lettuce leaves more would enable easier chop sticks combos of the ingredients in single bites. Overall it worked for us. I am definitely the most focused on (my companions would say obsessed) on connection to what these dishes should be. If adaptations work well for you, Tiger+Lily likely will as well.
