Hokkaido Ramen House - Aksarben

Bang bang shrimp was amazing. Poppers were fire, literally and figuratively. Will definitely go back many times.

Love the food. Awesome service.

We got the spicy hokaido, chicken karage, jalapeno poppers, and the pork don bowl.

The spicy hokaido ramen was pretty good, the broth was the best part but I still had some complaints. First I kinda expect some seaweed/fishcakes to be served with the ramen but wasn't, also I wasn't sure if the ramen was supposed to have chashu pork or not but the pork served was more of a thinly sliced pork rather than chashu. Again these are just small things the ramen is still really good

Next the chicken karage. This was pretty disappointing, the chicken was nice and juicy but the flavor on it was far from chicken karage, it tasted a little burnt Japanese barbeque flavoring on the chicken and then the batter itself was terrible, super grainy, it felt like it still had flower on it after the deepfry. This may be personal preference but when I think of chicken karage im thinking of a nice fresh crispy simple deepfry chicken thigh with black petter salk and a lime wedge, simple, elegant, easy, the sauce served with the chicken karage was a bit too complex also too many sweet dipping sauce, I think simple kewpie mayo is more than perfect, no need for 3 different dipping sauces.

Next the pork don bowl. Again I was a little bit disappointed, the portion were nices yes but flavor wise, it was lacking alot. The pork itself was a bit dry and flavorless when mixed together, the rice that was served with the bowl was a bit much, I mean half the dish was rice, and with it was served with diced carrots and green onions. The dish either needed more flavor with the pork to balance out the rice, or more with the dish than just carrots and green onions, but either way less rice.

Lastly the jalapeno poppers, not much to say on these other than they were jalapeno poppers, I guess the sauce they put on was kinda useless cause the cream cheese in them overpowered the flavor on the sauce on top of it.

One more thing with the appetizers, putting spinach underneath the appetizers was kinda useless and it looked kinda weird( completely subjective)

Service was amazing, atmosphere was a nerdy vibe if you are into it.

Tldr - ramen was great! Don and appetizers need a little work. Overall ramen/10

Food was fast, fresh, and delicious. Jalapeño poppers hit the spot, sesame seed balls were amazing and of course the ramen itself. Extremely filling and just an all around fantastic experience. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

What I don’t like is their take out service because they will gave a little amount of soup which make the ramen good right they gave us over a little above the half of the container. Then it spill because they did not totally close the lid or put some protection or a little tape just to secure it. It was nothing. I think they are kinda distracted because the one waiter was training someone. I paid 85 dollars just to give us a little serving of soup and which is the justice. Even the add noodle they gave us a little half of container soup.

Then I added Ribs they gave me a fat one that you cannot eat on it like where is the justice.

I love this place and I am not hating it before but it is so mess now the justice what I have paid is not attained. Just soup give us. a little bit the double noodles I ordered it is like stir fry noodles because there’s no soup. I am okay without added on noodles or toppings just the soup why it is on the not secured container it is disappointing.

There food is good but servings are not giving justice what I and or we have paid.

I ordered
Build your own ramen with double wheat noodles- 20+ dollars
Tantamen Ramen with Ribs- 34 dollars
Spring Roll
Crab Ragoon

This is for to go order.
I don’t have picture I wish I could so that you can see how injustice is just the soup it is too small plus it spill while we travelling even we lived nearby just 7minutes without terrain or potholes but it spills.

Favorite ramen spot, about as close to home as I can get. All the anime figures are dope and the fried oreos at the end seal the deal everytime. No brainer to recommend this place to all my friends/fam.

The service was top notch. Friendly and quick. The server gave great recommendations when we asked. The whole place was very clean and the food was fresh! Prices were very fair. We got a spicy ramen dish, teriyaki chicken, and a boba drink.

Awesome ramen with a super fun anime-themed atmosphere. Quick service, and fried Oreos are given as a free dessert after your meal. Ramen was generally around $20 per bowl, which is a bit expensive but worth it for the quality. The Tantanmen ramen was our favorite - but the beef rib was still very good. Highly recommend a visit!

This is hands down one of my favorite places to eat in omaha BUT, the service i get everytime i’ve eaten in hasn’t been great. The first time we had a male server and we came in pretty late he was phenomenal. Every other time since then it’s been a lady with Gauges and she pays little to no attention to her tables, or just gets distracted easily. half our table was served drinks, she assured us she didn’t forget about the others and didn’t bring them to the table for another 15 min. or food tasted great, but no refills given or asked for and waited at least 15-20 min before getting our bills and another 15-20 until i had to ask the host (who was already busy enough doing her job) to find our server to run our tickets. the wait time for getting the check alone cut my tip in half. It’s a shame the service is so terrible but the food is so good.

I was staying overnight in Omaha on my long road trip across the country. So I went here for a nice dinner after eating fast food and gas station craps for a while. The place has nice atmosphere, really great vibe for pop culture and anime if you're into that stuff, which is something I'm into so it feels nice and comfortable.

I ordered karaage and tonkotsu shoyu ramen. Overall they're really good and if I'm going to criticize, it's really just nitpicking the dishes.

Karaage: at most Japanese restaurant places, you would get a deep fried chicken chunks. Here, you get actually karaage. It's marinaded chicken dark meat chunk (thigh) coated with starch and deep fried. However, the starch has to be potato starch and it will create frosted white coat on the coating which this place did. The coating is nice and crunchy and the meat is well marinaded and juicy. To criticize it, I would say, it could come with a slice of lemon wedge. Acidity from the lemon will balance the salty from the marinade while cutting the greasy feel from being deep fried.

Tonkotsu shoyu: the noodle is great, the broth is good. I'm not sure if I'm getting the tare but overall it tastes great and very hearty. Menma tastes like it was marinaded so that's a nice touch. It's missing some nori garnish and soft boiled egg should be marinaded. Ajitsuke tamago (marinaded soft boiled eggs) is pretty easy to make and it would give a nice flavor into the ramen overall.

I ordered a cocktail too but I didn't really care for it to review it. It was good but hey it's alcohol.

Overall experience is great and I would visit again if I ever end up in Omaha again.

Each time I come is better than the last. I’ve been to Japan and eaten Raman that wasn’t as good. The service is always kind and speedy. The anime theme is a HUGE BONUS! I love eating here
