“ Great place to relax and eat a good warm meal. Enjoyed it alot. Staff was very kind fun and informative. About menu items. Great place! A ”
“ My first time eating at this restaurant and my experience was great. I figured since I like Ramen Noodles from the grocery store this shouldn’t be bad and I was right. I had the chicken and noodles with spicy sauce on the side I think it was number 8 and my coworker had number 4. I also had the pork dumplings yummy! The food was very good and I highly recommend. I would add a little salt to for my preference but honestly I enjoyed it without any salt. I did leave off the fish so I can’t tell you how it is with the fish included. The cashier was very nice and patient. The place was clean! I went about 1230 on a Sunday and there was a steady consistent amount of customers dinning in and take out. We didn’t have to wait more than 5minutes to get our food. Overall I enjoyed myself and since my all around experience was great I’m giving a five out of five stars for the visit! ”
“ Sure, it's a chain, but it's different and it's consistently good. Is it authentic?. Honestly, I have no idea, but they make tasty ramen that's fairly priced. I had the Cha Shu Men, but I think my wife's chicken ramen was a little better. They also have a slew of sides that are interesting and fun to try. ”
“ Everything was absolutely delicious! Wonderfully seasoned and beautifully plated. I had the chicken ramen that had fresh spinach, bean sprouts, seaweed, fish cake and many other ingredients. I also had shrimp dumplings and a salmon stuffed rice ball wrapped in seaweed. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant was clean and neat. I definitely will eat there again. ”
“ Having the Chicken Curry and asked for Spicy. First time here and I will definitely return. Food and Customer service are excellent. ”
“ Sooooo very excited to have a Menkoi closer to my house now! I've always wanted to try their curry but since they were downtown I didn't want to risk it and miss out on the Ramen. I finally tried it and it was sooo good! But, I had to go back the following week and get a bowl of Ramen because, it's that good! The new location is very spacious and the staff is very sweet. They were also playing Japanese music which was really fun and exciting to hear some of my favorite songs play. So, go there you won't regret it! Run, don't walk! Give this business all they support they deserve! ”
“ First time visiting. The staff was very friendly and it was obvious they have a good group of customers coming in or doing take out. I order the chicken Ramen. The portions are huge for a fantastic value. Definitely would visit again. I think this place would be fantastic on a cold rainy day!! ”
“ A great little Ramen shop, I am in town for class and we had today off because of the elections, and was looking for hot bowl of Ramen to warm me up. The Tonkotsu Ramen did not disappoint. It had the most perfect Umami and was nice and warm. I'm willing to say this was one of the best bowls of Ramen that I have ever had. Also got an order of Onigiri, the Salmon and the Bonito were just as amazing. This will definitely be my go to for Ramen when I am in Columbia. If you need the recommendation to go here this is it. You won't be let down. ”
