I just recently discovered Iso Iso Ramen & Boba in Danville, VA and so far, I'm loving it! The restaurant has a nice atmosphere for those dining in and service is good. I've had the Shoyu (Braised Beef) Ramen a couple of times now, which was delicious, however, the broth could've been seasoned a bit more. The marinated egg in the ramen was SO good, but they only give you a half of an egg and they charge $2 to add 1 whole add, which is crazy to me!? And though it's a nice hefty portion (2 sittings for me), I do find it to be a bit pricey. The Dynamic Roll Sushi is absolutely amazing and I'll definitely order it again!😋 The Lychee Tea is wonderfully delicious and my favorite fruit tea at Iso Iso, so far! I normally love the flavor of passionfruit, but the Passionfruit Tea just didn't quite hit the spot like the Lychee Tea did!? I can't wait to try their Thai Tea!! I have never been impressed with Mochi Donuts, but I must say this restaurant has the BEST I've ever had thus far. The pistachio one was phenomenal, but the milk chocolate one wasn't bad! I would recommend you try this restaurant for yourself, if you happen to be in or around the Danville area! I don't think you'll be...

I ordered the Tonkatsu ramen and my meal looked great when it came to the table. However, I found the pork broth to be quite bland, and some of the ingredients were cold, as if they just took it out the fridge and plopped it on top the noodles. The egg was cooked and marinated perfectly, but it being cold affected the goey texture and flavor of the egg, which is personally my favorite part of a hot bowl of Ramen. My boyfriend ordered the Iso Iso spicy ramen, and the spice was so overpowering, thats all you can taste. His toppings were cold as well. I also want to note that I was charged extra for the tapioca pearls that were in my already $7 drink, which I think is unnecessary. My boyfriend asked to substitute his corn with bamboo shoots, and was charged an extra $1 as an add on for only 4 or 5 small bamboo shoot pieces, and an whole egg is an extra $2. Overall I think the food is pricey for the quality. To end on a positive note, the service and...
Read moreme and my fiance were looking for some lunch on a whim for a spontaneous date, and we were gonna go to wendy's when i happened to see the word ramen and i've never had ramen! so, we decide to go try them out, AND OMG WERE THEY AMAZING!!!! my fiance got a pork ramen bowl and a mango boba thing and i got a chicken rice bowl. i didnt care much for his, but he LOVED it. as for my chicken bowl, everything was perfect. and the fact they bring the sauce for it in its own little bowl is great because i didnt know if i would like it or not (i did). besides everything tasting amazing, the portions were great! i even had some left over to take home. AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE DONUTS!!!! i got one to take with me (the fruity pebbles one) and it was fresh dipped and AMAZING. and the decor was so good. literally, nothing bad in any way can be said about this place from the staff, to the food, to the decor, to the price.
if you need a date spot, or just a food spot in general, go here. PLEASE! we will be...
