My first experience here was not the best. The Tomko to broth was not quite as clean as I've come to expect however, the second visit was really amazing. The broth was silky, spicy, and full of flavor both times that I went the waitress was very kind. And the look of the restaurant is quite nice for date nights.

Very fast service! We got in and out in great time and we dined in. Ramen is very flavorful - between the spicy tan tan and the black garlic, I liked the black garlic better. I also had the pork bun which was the highlight of the restaurant. They also give you a small smoothie type liquid that's a nice add on after your meal. Would come again!

I got a burger with avocado. This was good. I also tried their seasonal drink and it was pretty good. We were a large party of 20 and the server was very patient.

My friend was visiting in town for the weekend and I sacrificed some studying time to get dinner with him right before our biomed exam lulll. I'm glad I did though because we caught up and had goood food. We went to Toyori in Houston Chinatown since he wanted to eat something that had noodles. There were people waiting outside to get seated when we got there but it only took us 10 minutes to get seated. The interior was really nice and I loved the ambient lighting. My friend got the spicy tantan ramen. It had a spicy pork bone broth with pork chashu, minced pork, fungus, corn, and peanuts. The broth was very bold with the peanuty flavor. The chashu was really tender and the ramen overall was really solid. I got the unagi steak donburi which is an eel rice bowl with cheese tamagoyaki and a soft boiled egg. The eel was really good at first but I felt like it tasted the same after a few bites. The star of the show was actually the rice with the furikake and sauce to me. Another one of my friends got the signature ribeye steak with spaghetti and the black pepper sauce. Another friend got the gyu donburi which is a rice bowl with prime sliced beef and teriyaki sauce. The beef was sooo tender and good so I would recommend that as well

This place was very clean on the inside and the food was really good. My girlfriend got the classic ramen and it was so good and had a hint of garlic flavor. I got the gyu donburi and it was kinda mediocre and okay. Overall though, service was quick and timely, food was pretty good, and place is clean.

Got the hot plate noodles with a mix sauce - traditional black pepper + mushroom & tomato. And the fried fish option. Not a lot of places sell the sizzling hot plate noodle dishes. Good amount of food and it's worth a try. They had potato salad and pickled daikon for refillable side dishes and they ended you with a Yakult drink. Overall decent meal for the price. Friendly service. Good space for a small group. I would come back and try some of their other dishes.

I was looking for a ramen place that closed a little later and this is one of the few ones that closed later in the plaza besides tiger's den. I came in and was seated immediately and looked at the cute paper booklet that was the menu. I saw their sizzling plates and was about to change my mind on the ramen, but we stuck with our guns and tried the tori-paitan ramen and classic tonkotsu ramen. I really enjoyed the chicken ramen that came with a creamy flavorful broth with a good amount of spice to it. I was really surprised by the umami that came with the chicken broth because you would usually expect a blander taste from the chicken broth than you would with the pork. I loved that it came with a side of grilled chicken thighs that were juicy and had a nice crisp on the skin. My fiance got the tonkotsu ramen and it was so much flavor. I don't know how something can be so umami and not be extremely salty. You can really taste the pork and the garlic in the broth. We also got the creamy shrimp tempura as an appetizer and it's like your typical walnut shrimp from a Chinese restaurant, but you can't go wrong with it. It was delicious and the pineapple paired really well with it to cut the creaminess of it. I'll definitely be back to try the sizzling plates!

Really enjoyed my experiences here! Staff is friendly, nice ambiance and the food is delicious! I had the Chicken ramen as well as the spicy tonkatsu. Both delicious. The chicken was a unique experience for me and the broth was super delicious. It was kinda creamy - the perfect consistency. They give a description of how it's made in the menu, which piqued my curiosity. It also comes with a side of chicken thigh, which was actually kind of bland, but I didn't mind the extra food to take home. Both ramens had a delicious halfegg - cooked perfectly. The yolk - I don't know how they cook it but it's not too runny or hard - a perfect gelatin consistency that's hard to describe. And the seasoning of the egg was also on point. I must say that the chicken meatball was a bit unwieldy until I cut it in pieces. But still delicious! I also tried the dumplings. Delicious! Although the chili sauce was somewhat overpowering, but that probably because I ordered mine to go so it sat in the sauce in the box for a few minutes, but the sauce is spicy regardless. Super smooth texture to the dumplings. They do everything well at Toyori and they have a lot of different types of dishes - didn't get to try the sizzling plate but that will be my next venture!
