I had eaten at this restaurant several times before with my husband and we thought it was good. Btw, It was always freezing in there even during the winter. Anyway, the Ninja Lover poke bowl that my husband ordered (To-go) for me earlier today tasted horrible! I felt like vomiting. After I dove in, I immediately noticed the salmon and tuna tasted a little funny, but I just kept eating because I thought it wasn't a big deal. Then, when I had eaten probably less than half of the poke bowl, the salmon and tuna tasted so rotten and horrible that I spat it out and felt queasy afterwards. I'm very upset because raw fish needs to be prepared accordingly since it has bacteria like H.pylori (which I've already had), I hope I don't get it again. Last but not least, the brown rice was slimy. I'm very disappointed and also concerned about my stomach. I forgot to take a picture because I was so angry that I just threw the food right away. I'm done with this restaurant!
I was introduce to Ramen Ninja a few years ago in Arlington. have been hooked ever since. I live 40 mins to an hour away & I still drive. disappointed today I order 2 spice tonkutsus & there was no spicy ??
First time having ramen at a restaurant. The food was really good. Service was good and friendly. I didn't like that half the food was served in to go plates/bowls. The place also wasn't very cozy, minor things. The only thing that put me off was the bad smell when walking in. Been around many restaurant builds, this is not the restaurant's fault. It's an old building that needs to overhaul the plumbing. Once at our table the smell got a little better.
Wow the chasu bun really impressed me, I am very picky ramen fan and always compare to real Japanese ramen. This place is hands down comparable, plus service is great, and great food. If you Iike your rice sweeter in taste you can order the rice bowl, however I’m not a fan. I would highly recommend this place and be back to try other food on their menu.
I always order the Kimchi Pork Don and substitute the rice for noodles!!! It's sooo good, I haven't tried anything else! Delicious!!! I visit at least once a week!!!
I got the vegetarian ramen. Broth was good, loved the shitake mushrooms and the corn. Was a little thrown off why they had avocado and tomatoes in the ramen, but hey who am I to judge. Its probably a big hit. I asked for the tomatoes to be omitted due to personal preference. I ordered the popcorn chicken and the vegetable gyoza. Both were delicious!! I loved the dipping sauce for the gyoza!
Flavors are good but ingredient quality is reflected in the attractive prices. Will go again, but closer to fast food than fast casual.
If your a ramen lover this place is a Definitely a must go to it is so delicious feels like Japan love the artwork and environment.
The sulfur smell in this building is disgusting and pervasive. It’s been going on for at least 9 months. Taste and smell are closely related - This smell ruins the entire experience, making their food taste absolutely foul, just by nature of the odor surrounding it. What’s sad is that the food might actually be alright, and I’ve heard rare reports of it actually being really good when the smell isn’t there, but I would never know since I’ve only ever been there when it smelled.
The food and the service here are amazing! Everything is so fresh and flavorful. I'm a regular as long as I'm in this area!
