Poke Restaurants near Asheville, NC

“The bowls were fantastic!! I did the Make Your Own and they have a great selection of fresh items. The combination along with the rice and choice of 2 sauces gave the dish many different flavors all in one bowl. We will definitely be going back!!“

“I believe the owner of YZ Asian Market (attached to Mizu) and his brother also run this Ramen-ya! I've gone to Japan multiple times just to eat ramen there and I also make many different styles of authentic ramen myself from scratch, including the noodles. Ramen is a personal hobby and passion of mine.

So... When I say this place makes good ramen, you can trust my opinion!!

Their broth is authentic. They do it properly by boiling the bones for long amounts of time to break down the collagen which gives it that delicious flavor and renders out all that fat that coats your lips. I had the Tonkotsu, which is made from pork bones. I'm not sure which bones specifically they used, but the balance of it felt like a mixture of mostly femur and knuckle bones with some trotters thrown in for that bit of thickening from the collagen maybe?

All of the additions to the ramen were well prepared. Even the takoyaki was wonderful! Always get the takoyaki.

They make everything from scratch but the noodles. Nobody makes noodles from scratch. It's extremely labor intensive and requires special equipment. Ain't nobody got time for that!

Except me of course, but that's only because you can't get fresh ramen noodles unless you're a ramen shop. I'm also just that crazy about making ramen ;)

This place gets their noodles delivered fresh by truck from Atlanta. Forgot to ask the brand, but they taste like Sun noodles. It's always Sun noodles usually. They supply the majority of ramen shops and will actually create specific noodles for many of the shops based ingredients and hydration ratios supplied to them by those ramen shops.“

“Incredible experience. Delicious food. Very friendly. Excellent service. Yum“

“Always a great meal here. It's like the Chipotle of sushi bowls, but better! Seems you can't go wrong. My personal favorite is the spicy ahi fries that give a generous portion of the tuna with a bunch of seasoned waffle fries fit under $10. I often take others here and rarely is anyone underwhelmed or disappointed. Quick meals affordably priced prepared the way you like it. Can't ask for more!“
