I have to be honest with this spot, and to tell you the truth, you could actually this same kind of food anywhere. It didn't actually stand out as unique other than the fact that they have a varied menu. It's definitely serviceable and if you're hungry for a quick bite it's a decent go to. Maybe next time I'll try the ramen.

We’ve actually bought food here before. This probably our 3rd or 4th coming here. Service and food has been consistently good. We have never had any issues with our food or orders. I would, though, like to have extra bbq or teriyaki sauce for the bbq items. While the bbq meat already have flavor, I would prefer to have the extra sauce. In my picture, you can see there isn’t sauce on it but it does have the teriyaki bbq flavor. Other than that, food is good.
Me and my husband were very excited to come here unfortunately we were greatly disappointed. Spent $55 just for our order to be wrong.Very unorganized cramped when trying to order, had to ask for a number # for our table. The 2 head cashiers were Rude, But the Young lady & Young man( who did our Refund) waiting the tables were Nice. Our Food didn't come out Together I Had to wait on my order so my husband shared his food with me. Its a shame we will Not be returning or ordering from here again. Not sure about the 4.6 Star Reviews DEFINITELY NOT what we experienced.

I got take out and the ramen was pretty average. The server was very polite and our food came out fast. I got the veggie ramen and it was pretty good, just a bit bland (should've ordered spicier). Overall it's a nice place.
I've eaten here a few times and can confidently say that I really like their mac salad. The macaroni is well cooked to a soft texture and the mayo in nicely proportioned without being runny. It is a simple mac, as it should be. Yes. The quality of this seemingly simple side dish makes a huge difference to me.I've had their chicken katsu, fried squid, BBQ beef and chicken, and their Spam musubi. Everything has been very tasty. They could form their musubi a little tighter, since the two they give you fall apart. I haven't tried their ramen yet, but would be completely fine with all of the other dishes I've tried.Dine in and delivery have both been cool.

Enjoyed the service, food, and space. The only lacking star is menu options and a little favor. Also-Where's the veggies? Ok, maybe I am in the wrong place however my son picked this spot.Prices are good for the portion. Huge!!!!No one ate all their food.We had a mixture of rice plates, ramen, and me Al's carte.Chicken Teriyaki rice plate Chicken Teriyaki BowlSpam MusubiSpare Rib PlateAgedashi Tofu- which I lovedChicken Katsu PlateHawaiian BBQ ChickenTempura Shrimp Pork Rib RamenThe only thing we attacked the food before picsA redo is necessary

I left Target and needed food. I decided to give them a try. Upon entering the order area is to the right. They had a menu up above and on the counter with photos. I appreciated that. Sometimes, I want to see what my food will look like before ordering.I ordered the chicken teriyaki bowl and Lumpia. The lumpia is supposed to be 6 pieces for $7. When I got the order there were only 5 pieces. I'm glad I checked my order before leaving. I gave them the lumpia and a few minutes later they gave me 7 pieces. They tasted 'okay', but were greasy.My teriyaki bowl was packed with chicken, broccoli, cabbage and white rice.Sorry I forgot the pics. I was hungry.The broccoli should have been cut up and the cabbage was hard and in large pieces. I didn't know I needed a sharp knife to cut up the veggies and chicken so I could actually eat it.I took the bowl home and added some seasonings to it to give it more taste. One thing I liked is that I had a lot of food to eat over 2 to 3 meal times, so it was definitely worth the price.

As a ramen lover, it was only right I finally make my inaugural visit to the Ramen 101 in Vallejo. Though I had my doubts, I was pleasantly surprised, especially since we ordered for takeout. Though their space is intimate, it was well-maintained, staff was friendly, and the food was good. Their menu offers more than ramen; another pleasant surprise. The Ramen 101 in Vallejo is located in the Target center where the old Starbucks used to be housed. There is plenty of free parking as this shopping center is fairly large, so if you don't find a spot right away, be patient as people are consistently coming in and out of the shops and parking spots. As noted, we placed our order to go by calling ahead, so our interaction inside the establishment was limited to picking up the food. The service we did have was friendly and efficient. The quoted pick up time was accurate and our minor customizations to the order were all correct. Our order consisted of a mix of their regular entrees and a bowl of ramen. Portions were larger than expected. Pricing definitely justified the product, though a little on the pricier side. Our full order included- Black Garlic Ramen- Hawaiian BBQ Chicken and Beef- Spam Musubi- LumpiaOrdered the Black Garlic Ramen at medium spice and enjoyed the heat (spice) level and the flavorful broth. As others have mentioned, I would have definitely loved a stronger garlic taste and the ramen noodles were a little firm, but those things did not take away from the tastiness of the dish. There was so much, I even had left overs. The Hawaiian BBQ was also very good. Also a generous portion. Spam Musubi was okay. There were two pieces, but the rice-to-spam ratio did not make it memorable enough for a repeat order in the future. Lumpia was fried to perfection. Despite driving it home in a sealed bag, it somehow made it home still crispy. Ramen 101 made a strong first impression and is a great addition to Vallejo. Looking forward to future visits and trying more things from their menu.
