I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen with a side of seasoned egg. I've been to many ramen spots around the world, including in Japan, and I was pleasantly surprised by the broth here — it’s not overly oily, yet still rich and full of flavor.
My favorite place to get pork rice bowls! They now have tempura ice cream. It's large enough for two people to share. It's so good!
I have been coming to Shokudo since I was 16 years old and my boyfriend and I are avid regulars here. The food is always delicious and tastes homemade - I’m especially a fan of the vegetable miso ramen. It’s perfect for a quiet lunch or dinner and never disappoints. 10/10 recommend!
Whenever we are in the area, we make certain to eat at Shokudo. Your first thought is that it's a typical strip mall, fast food eatery. Not so. From the gentle background music and lovely Asian woman who greets you like you're family, to the food that is perfectly delicious and authentic, you will be delighted that you came here. Looking forward to our return.....don't forget the polite bow as a show of respect!
Stopped by for a late night ramen, did not disappoint. Although I’ve had better ramen before, the ramen here was decent. The broth was flavorful and I could tell a lot of time and effort was put into making it from the big vats in the back to the cheerfulness of the staff. The owner was also very nice and helpful in ordering. Finally, the atmosphere was cozy and well-decorated. Very good experience.
From the moment we walked in, the service was great. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the whole dining experience welcoming and enjoyable. Now, for the food, it was absolutely delicious! My favorite is the Tonkotsu Ramen. The broth was rich, creamy, and slow-boiled for a deep, complex flavor that was the definition of comfort in a bowl. Highly recommended!
Great food, service and atmosphere. Tried their spicy miso soup and spicy pork fried rice, chicken fried rice and pork bun. Everything was delicious. Would definitely come back.
Oyster ramen added egg and pork belly. Staying in town for business so had to get Togo. Can't tell you how impressed I was for the level of care of protection of the food for delivery. Once I saw that I knew it was going to be amazing. Once absolutely some of the best things I've eaten recently. Wish I would have added a spicy garlic but it was amazing without. Well done!
The 24 hour slow cooked broth is AMAZING. u can bathe in that broth. The gyoza were so light and the dough is so thin and light. Amazing 👏🏼
First time having this cultural food. We liked the environment and the atmosphere the place was given but we were a bit hesitant whether if we would like it or not. My husband and I decided to give it a shot! once we tasted the food! We were super happy we did not leave! IT WAS AMAZING! We have had a rough week with the kids. And the service provided made us fully relaxed and comfortable
