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.

I visited on a Sunday evening, and there was only one other group of customers. This location is…read morenoticeably smaller than their others. There were two waitstaff and one cook. We were seated quickly, and our waters were brought out right away. However, the menu here is different from the other locations I've been to, so I recommend checking it before you come if you're expecting specific dishes. They were also out of some of their noodles. We placed our order, and the karaage salad arrived first within about 10 minutes. Sadly, the ramen came out almost 30 minutes later and wasn't plated cleanly. There was broth all over the edge of the bowl, and I even think the server's finger was in the broth when she dropped it off. Additionally, the ramen was missing the egg, and the noodles were overcooked. One of the waitstaff seemed to be the only one actually working, as he was helping about 95% of the customers in the restaurant. Overall, I highly doubt I will be returning to this location anytime soon.

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!

The karaage really didn't need any sauce, tasted fine by itself. The taro chips were quite addictive, good for scooping the salad. Miso ramen broth was not too creamy; pork belly was a little bit on the leaner side. Abura ramen (brothless) is a nice option during hot weather - ginger garlic sauce gave the noodles good flavor since it's broth-less & the noodles weren't drenched; the tonkatsu had a nice crisp. Other sauce & protein options available as well. Will try other menu items next time!

Upon entering the restaurant, we were led to a kiosk to place our order before sitting down at a table. We ordered the potstickers, abura ramen (brothless), and ramen in a blanket (ramen sandwiched between two tonkatsus), plus they gave us an order of the short ribs on the house! To start, the potstickers were very good and I liked that the filling was braised pork as opposed to the traditional ground pork, but the short ribs were on the tougher side. Moving onto the ramens, I really enjoyed my abura ramen; the flavors were great and the house pickles were a refreshing touch! However, while the ramen in a blanket is a unique take, we wish there was some sort of dipping sauce on the side because the tonkatsus were a bit bland otherwise.

The waitress was very kind and I thought the owner was very sweet to bring out some samples for us to try. The evening started off okay with decent appetizers like the Karage and Gyoza. But when it came to the entrees, it was not my favorite. I will admit we only ordered cooked sushi, and maybe that's not their forté. But the sushi had a noticeable fishy taste, the green bomb was just a mash of mostly rice topped with avocado, and the Cali Poli had the same flavor profile as the bomb despite it being a different fish and presentation style. I love all food, but I had to toss my leftovers away because both my wife and I felt like the food wasn't settling well. I spent $60 for all the food. I'm giving this a 3 star because the staff was super kind, and maybe my wife and I just ordered the wrong things on the menu, but I will not be returning personally.

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.

However the service my wife and I received was so far below adequate that we will definitely not come back. Upon being seated. We waited about 5 minutes before we even spoke to a waiter. We already had our orders written down and they took our food order and left. They did not ask us if we wanted something to drink and they did not even care to bring out water. This was also the last time we saw our waiter. Shortly after my order came out and we proceeded to wait another 10 minutes before my wife's food came out... we were so fed up we had them box it up and we payed our tab and left. This place was not busy in the slightest and if it was I might have been able to look past the multitude of errors. But this is hands down the worst experience I've had in a restaurant since COVID.

That being said, unless I'm really really hungry I don't need to get a refill because the portions are good.

However, the past two times we shared this place with another couple who loves sushi just as much as my husband and I do. One reason we kept coming back, aside from all the delicious food, was how they labeled their menu with the top food allergens. As a food allergy mom, I appreciated this so much! Especially when I was still breastfeeding, I had to eliminate all of my daughter's allergies to breastfeed safely. The main ones I had to look out for was gluten, dairy, egg, nuts, and sesame seeds. The safe was aware of my limitations and shared empathy, not annoyance like other places. T Thankfully I'm out of that stage so I can eat anything on the menu now. We would like to take our daughter here some day, she loves sushi a lot! But being only 5 years old, we'll need to save it for a special occasion. We get carried away when we come here. The food here is top notch and worth every penny, so we'll have to save up. Cooked dishes we always order: Brussel sprouts, steamed mushrooms, hamachi collar and miso cod. All the nigiri/sushi is fresh and you can't ignore the specials or seasonal menu!

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. The dishes are very easy to share, and I think next time we'll lean into that more so we can sample even more of the menu. If you are looking for authentic, high-quality Japanese food, this is the place to go!
