Great Japanese food. Loved the soba and the chicken.

Good, big, portions on some dishes. Lots of options. Sushi was good, so was price. Wouldn't say it was great, but I still enjoyed it.

Got the chicken teriyaki bento for dinner. The price was great - it's a great bang for your buck with massive portions. The flavors are bland though. My favorite part was the gyoza and miso soup. The teriyaki sauce was unusual. The place was pretty packed when we went on a Saturday night and everyone sits in close proximity.

We came to try this place after watching the old school movie, Tampopo. Our expectations weren't high so they met it, but unfortunately, they did not exceed it.Their ramen was very mediocre, didn't taste like the broth was cooked the traditional way. It just tasted like seasoned hot water. The noodle was average as well. When we asked for the noodles to be cooked "firm", they seemed very confused which is a sign that it's not that authentic.I have to say that their combo specials are a good deal. You get more than enough food hence the 3 stars. Their service is also good and fast. I personally won't be returning due to the share amount of better quality Japanese food in the area. But this place is worth a try!

Hands down one of my favorite places. I love everything I have ever tried here but some of my favorites would be the baked green mussels as an appetizer, the Japanese burrito sushi rolls, and for the ramen I get the spicy seafood ramen with miso broth. Tampopo will always be one of my go to restaurants!

Worst service ever, I place my order and came to get and they said I didn’t place any order and the service said if I have attitude don’t place orders

Easily some of the worst sushi I've had for the money, I was unimpressed with everything, and it seems like every dish on the menu with the exception of a few have imitation crab, I would recommend going somewhere else. I've been to a lot of sushi places and don't have very high expectations for any but this one definitely dropped the ball

BEST service ever!!! The food is also delicious ? ? I definitely recommend you to eat here. It also has a 50% off menu (not sure the 50% off menu will last forever though) even if you don't like seafood, there are many more options~

They have always had consistently good ramen. Tried the spicy ramen today and it was even better, if that's even possible! Spicy tuna set, fabulous!
