Poke & Ramen — Restaurant in Mesa

The restaurant was clean but lacked character and had just a few decorations. We were greeted abruptly and the waitress just pointed to a booth for us to sit in. The restaurant was not busy at all so I was surprised by this. She than came over with menus and asked what we wanted to drink. They didn't have regular hot tea or jasmine tea, which is what we wanted, just hot or cold green tea, so we ordered water. The menu had several pork ramen options and a beef bulgogi option but no seafood, chicken or vegetable options. This seemed strange to me because our options were very limited. If you want a Poke Bowl you have to create it by completing a form that was a bit unclear on how to complete. We ordered ramen and a poke bowl. The pork in the ramen was like a thick piece of bacon floating on top of the ramen which was a bit disappointing. The broth was very good but the noodles were like the 10 for $1.00 at the local supermarket. The poke bowl came just as ordered but the meat was not very satisfying. The service was fast and we received our food quickly, but the waitress was not personable just very business like. I don't think I will be back because there are to many other options for ramen to settle for a...

It was empty when we arrived. It seems pretty much everyone that eats from here orders take out. Which it's a shame. It could also just be the time we stopped in at. Service was great, and everything was clean. Seats seem to be basically new or at least well maintained. Now on to the food. We ordered edemame and pork gyoza. The edemame was good and the gyoza was great. The dipping sauce might be a bit salty for some but for me it was perfect. I had a Poke bowl with salmon, blue fin and yellowtail, the sauce I order with it was kiwi sauce. I gambled, since I've never tried such a sauce before and it paid off. It was really really good. I'd definitely try it again with different proteins. It came with miso soup and that was really good. Probably in my top 5. My wife go the spicy miso ramen and that was amazing. Very flavorful and the broth was made perfectly. It wasn't "dirty" and the pork was cooked perfectly. Our server was very friendly and helpful. If I could rate it...

I just finished DEVOURING my Shoyu Ramen...SO GOOD!! I live down the street and I'm so excited to have a good ramen place nearby. I will be eating here a lot. My wife ordered the Bulgogi ramen and said it was delicious as well. Our order was processed very quickly and the people I interacted with were very kind. I asked if they were very busy and he said it was just starting to pick up. I thought about not leaving this review because I want it all to myself! But the food definitely deserves 5 stars and I will most definitely be back to try other menu items.

I think management needs to look into how a lot of these reviews are stored. They said this place had only been open for a month, and I know at least 2 or 3 different restaurants have been at this location within the last 3-4 years and it seems like a lot of reviews are for those places. This place is called Poke & Ramen, not Zugoi or whatever the previous...
