Many restaurants across Texas run daily lunch specials on weekdays that are not listed on the dinner menu, so it is worth asking.

Took my father here after and eye appointment. He had the chicken broth Ramen and it was perfect for him. This 88 year old polished it off. I orders the happy hour items and every single thing I order was delicious. The service was friendly, professional and timely.

Busy Saturday and was able to get a seat right away. And what a suprise, $9 Ramen everyday from 12-3, $12, bento boxes. We got there at 240pm...3pm happy hour starts so my wifes margarita went from $12 to $7! Look at these dishes in the photo! Highly recommended! And that Chasu Ramen was one of the best I have had!

The broth in the ramen was so salty I couldn't finish the meal, and those crunchy bits they put on the eel sushi are so rock hard they hurt my teeth. The gyoza was really the thing edible. The environment is very noisy too.

Fantastic Happy Hour menu and prices! Would come back again for the great value! The place was very busy and we were able to get a table outside. The fans were great and provided relief from the humidity Isaac M was our server. He was great! Kept our waters filled and was knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered the beef with sweet potato fries. The portion was smaller but good with an additional side. I had the corn fritters. Slightly overcooked, but still edible. The other girls loved their pork ribs and drinks were delicious. Parking was difficult at 5pm on a Friday.

Fun vibe. Great Happy Hour, like $6 Philly roll great. Plenty of fried appetizers. NFL game on mute outside on the patio. 80s playlist. Thet have unique, Latin fusion rolls, like with cilantro and pico de gallo. But also the minimalist classics, like spicy tuna and yellowtail. Beers on tap. Here are photos of the ginger beef topped with sweet potato fries, corn fritters, Dragon roll, Marry me roll, Bullet roll, Dry Ramen (no broth). I've driven by this place a million times and never stopped because it looks like a sit-down and need reservations kind of place. Now you know. This place is comfortable, casual, and good for an impromptu stop in. Good service. Also, it seemed like every table was full, but we we still were able to get a table on the patio right away. Every table had food and drinks, no long waits, despite the popularity. Will definitely return.
