I enjoyed every last bit of my ramen. It was amazing from the toppings down to the broth. Very flavorful ❤️
Lukewarm broth that tasted like dishwater. Was basically two ladels in a bowl full of noodles. noodles were good, wish we had put them into a bowl with an instant ramen packet.And this sea creature I ordered (squid or octopus) looks nothing like the photo online and the portion is much smaller. Chewy mess.
One of the best sushi places that's off the proverbial beaten path.People tend to ignore this one and literally pay 2X the price for the place on main street. While that location is popular, this sushi is simply the superior quality and much much more affordable. There's also a great place across the street. However, since the 2020 pandemic they have been carry out only. Meanwhile Nishiki has plenty of space inside without being crowded.Do not be fooled thinking that affordability = lower quality. No, this is simply superb quality raw fish. The Tuna is succulent, Salmon is flavourful, Yellow Tail is almost sweet, Red Snapper is unique in taste, Eel is cooked to perfection, etc. are all unmatched in quality. They even have the usual tempura, donburi, dragon rolls, and other specials expected at a quality joint.Then there's the Ramen. It's rare for an excellent sushi place to offer good quality ramen, granted, you should come here for the sushi. But it's good to know that once in a while you can enjoy a good Ramen.Give this place a chance, and you will not regret having tried one of the best sushi ? this side of Japan (ok that that maybe too much).
We love this place! I believe it is family ran, so the hospitality is very genuine also. The sushi, is delicious! The Volcano roll, crispy salmon roll was to die for. Their white shrimp tempura was delicious, seaweed salad was refreshing and the Ramen was also good. I actually love this side of the Kentlands, one of new fav spots!
Amazing food! Very delicious!! We got the gyoza as an appetizer and the shrimp tempura and tonkatsu ramen. Both were delicious.Service was very quick.My one complaint would be that our ramen was served warm but not hot, but that’s my personal preference. The air vent directly above me was also leaking on me, which wasn’t too fun either.Other than that, food was great and would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a good ramen spot.
Very pleasantly surprised with this place! I've been a fan of their neighbors across the street for years so I wasn't sure how they would do business wise.I've had ramen here once and it was good.But I really enjoyed the maki rolls that I got as take-out. I ordered and Alaska roll, salmon & avocado, and a spicy crunchy salmon.The spicy crunchy salmon was really good and a good level of spicy. The salmon tasted fresh!The cashier/server was very pleasant.They've now won me over and I'll be returning to try more of their food. ??????
My top pick for ramen in the area. The spicy miso ramen is VERY good, and the chashu buns are a must. Take out is always fast, and the staff are very friendly. Will always come here when I have a craving for ramen
Out of all the other ramen places I’ve had in the Rockville/Gaithersburg area this place has the BEST Ramen!! Everything from the broth, to the noddles, to the chicken was absolutely delicious! It was the perfect amount of Ramen and was definitely filling. I also got the Spicy Crunchy Shrimp roll which was also very delicious and a great portion amount. You can tell the food is fresh which I love! My server was very attentive and kind as well as the other workers there. The service was great and quick! I will definitely be returning and directing friends to try Nishiki out!
My experience at this place was fantastic! The food was really good with affordable price. The waiters were very nice, they greet us when we came in and leave.
Nishiki is a special restaurant to me. The first time I stopped by was on a miserably cold, rainy day. I just had a rough move to the area, and some comfort food I didn't have prep was about all I wanted.Spotting a place serving ramen was enough for me to shuffle in on auto-pilot. My waitress was attentive and smiling, and the atmosphere was warm.The prep area is open like most ramen & sushi joints, and was keeping up with a steady stream of to-go orders late in the afternoon. Nonetheless, my tea was out fast (fresh, piping hot, and kept topped up for the entirety of my dining experience), adjustments to my ramen were of no consequence, and I had the entirety of my order before I knew it.The food was perfect. The generous portion of avocado & mango sushi was an incredibly fresh, and was so rejuvenating. The veggie ramen was similarly wondered, with my side of fried tofu being delightfully crispy and filling. Despite how ravenous I was, I found myself taking home leftovers at the end of my late lunch – right along another cup of hot tea to-go that my waitress insisted I take with me (complete with a lemon wedge!).In all, I spent less than $15 w/o tip for the experience. I was floored.Since then, I routinely find myself back here. I think I've dragged most of my friends and family to this little shop, and pointed every neighbor and coworker their way. That doesn't stop me from dropping by whenever I need a pick-me-up. The atmosphere is just so welcoming and cozy, with staff that makes you feel like you're home. The food being as filling and affordable as it is really seals the deal for me.Though I'm lukewarm on sushi, I highly recommend their unagi rolls. The rice is just perfect here, and the eel really melts in your mouth. Their ramen is truly some of the best in the area, too. While the tonkatsu is absolutely the star (and I'm very fond of the thick noodle karaage ramen), the vegetable ramen is also incredible for veggies and omnis alike.If you haven't given Nishiki a try, they're more than worth the visit. I would highly recommend stopping by.
