My little sister and I had the great pleasure of picking this place yesterday for lunch, and let me tell you. We weren't disappointed. I had two different rolls of sushi both were very good. I recommend The Surf and Turf Roll , fried 😋 with both sauces. Cali Roll was perfect, crab mix was delicious. My sister had the Shoyu w /chicken, she loved it it was a good good portion of noodles and chicken chucks. Broth was delightful. The entire place is very cozy, and chill. The music was a bit off but didn't mind it we still jammed out while we enjoyed eachothers company and very yummy food. Our server/host was very attractive which we appreciate very much, super friend made us feel comfortable and very welcomed, always made sure we were good. We will be back . Give it a try 😉
Super delicious!!! You can tell the owner is super passionate about his spot and food! Explained to us wha everything was and gave us recommendations. Everyone was super friendly. Ramen was delicious as well as the fries, shrimp tempura, and sushi rolls
I can’t say enough great things about The Don Ramen Bar! We found this place by chance, as it was near a Dr visit we had, and we’re so glad we did. Right when we walked in, we were greeted so kind and warmly, it was as if we’d been there before. The art & decor set such a fun, yet cozy vibe, and the chairs & booth cushions are insanely cushy and comfy too! We had the absolute pleasure of having Vince, the owner, as our server; he is such a sweet, down-to-earth person!! Anytime he addressed any of us at the table, including our eldest that came with us, he spoke directly to each with such intent and kindness; he also took the time to explain the entire menu to us - and goodness everything sounded delicious. Now on to the food. We had the takoyaki and fried spicy edamame as appetizers. We’ve had both of these plenty times before, although fried was new to us in the realm of edamame; it gives such a new element to the already amazing treat! It added a level of almost smokiness to it that I can’t quite describe, but I’m nearly addicted to now. The takoyaki, was the best hands down at any of the many, many places we’ve tried in several cities & restaurants. Honestly, we couldn’t even get a pic before we demolished almost the entire serving. My husband and I got the Don Tonkatsu Ramen, both with shiitake mushrooms and only mine with the Hot Bomb. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. The layers of flavor really come through in the decadent broth, and the chashu is buttery soft, so flavorful, and just melts in the mouth. The shiitake mushrooms have a sweetness to them that I didn’t expect, but add another depth of flavor that compliments the tonkatsu broth so well. Our eldest got the spicy salmon roll as her main, and we got the surf and turf to share because it sounded insane! And it was! Steak is grilled to order, and is juicy and flavorful, but doesn’t take away from the sushi roll itself. The spicy salmon was great too, nice crispy cucumber with the classic salmon and spicy mayo combo we all know and love. The salmon roll is the only thing I didn’t get a picture of, our daughter was far too excited to warrant having her wait for a photo lol! Overall, everything was a 12/10 and we cannot wait to go back to try more! We don’t live close by, so we’ll be dreaming until we get back to EP for our next fix at our new go-to ramen spot.
