My friend (who will also be leaving a review) and I visited this establishment on Friday night about 10pm. We placed our order online and waited outside in the car to pick it once done. We picked up our order around 10:54 PM. We put the food in the car and on the way home. We both noticed that there was no good foodrr aroma coming from the bags and we just figured. Maybe they sealed them really well because we had the lobster shrimp and lamb chop Ramen I also got the lamb chop eggrolls. So it took me about 30 minutes to get back to the other side of town because I was driving from West Houston and got home opened my bag and the Ramen had no juice in the bowl. The lamb chops were overcooked so were the shrimp and lobster. Nothing had any flavor or taste whatsoever. The Ramen literally look like the Ramen out of the bag, beef to be exact. It also taste like they use the seasoning from the noodles for the dishes well. I definitely will not be back spending this type of money to get this quality of food was very disappointing. Their Instagram page is very misleading The food does not look like that unless it’s prepared like that earlier in the day because at night The food did not look like that and this establishment does stay open to 2 AM the lamb chop eggrolls. We’re just cheese and meat. They were decent. I might give them a five out of 10, but the Ramen for sure. Out of 10 like it doesn’t even get any points for presentation. Unfortunately, I won’t visit or recommend this place to anyone. If I could have called my bank and refunded this charge, I absolutely would’ve done so in a heartbeat very disappointing.
Did a take out order on a Tuesday evening, I was happen to go try out the Ramen spot. I ordered the Ramen with oxtail but they were out so i ended up with lamb chop and lobster. The lamb chop was not good at all, it tasted old of some something. One bit I was done. The lobster was good but definitely over cooked 😩. I was spicy for no reason. I feel it should be a choice if you was spicy or non spicy. The Ramen and the juices it sat in tasted like how the lamb chop tasted.
My son got the shrimp and chicken ,and he loves Ramen immediately told me it was a 2/10 because it was too spicy for him nothing was good besides his shrimp. $66 was not worth paying for this food. The only thing good was the cool-aid fruit punch I bought from a vendor outside the store.

I’m extremely disappointed with the pizza. It’s definitely not like the pictures and videos that were advertised. when I first came here I ordered the rice bowl and wings, which weren’t too bad. However, the “famous” pizza that I’ve seen videos about was terrible. I got it with lamb and chicken because I don’t like shrimp. The chicken was very dry that I had to remove it, and the lamb was too tough. You can even see it in the picture. Im not sure if it was because it was late but that shouldn't be an excuse.

I would not recommend this restaurant. I went to the place yesterday and the ramen noodles that I ordered looked as though they came out of a Ramen noodle package that you get from the store. I did not feel well after eating the food here. The yams that my loved one ordered were good, but aside from that, the lamb chops had a lot of fat on them and the shrimp was sparse. There was very limited seating inside the establishment. The wait was rather long (about 20 minutes for 2 meals) and the prices seemed high for the portions and food we received. I wish them well, but I will not be returning to this place.

I recently tried Leighton's for the first time & it did not disappoint. Upon entering we were met by Kim & she was very pleasant & also helped in our selection choices. We ordered the Lobster and Shrimp Ramen & Chicken and Shrimp Pasta. Both entrees were bussin & plentiful! The restaurant is small inside so it's not a ton of seating but there is seating outside.

Leighton's is definitely worth checking out! When I went, they had a lamb pizza with pasta and wings for under $45, which was such a great deal. The food was tasty, fresh, and filling. There’s not a ton of seating, but the vibe is really cool and laid-back, so it still felt like a nice spot to hang out and eat. Great food at an affordable price — I’ll definitely be back!

Way too much sauce on the pizza. It really doesn’t have a taste to it. I ordered take out so when I get home to finish eating it, I will add some seasoning and cheese. The shrimp is very small and on their Instagram, it looked bigger. Definitely disappointed. It’s not worth the hype. I’m willing to try something else on the menu but I’m definitely not getting the pizza again. They didn’t even cut my pizza in to slices. It’s 2 big pieces in the center. Idk how they even did that! Very strange. It’s literally not cut at all in the center. I can’t believe I drive all the way from the woodlands for this! I could have made this at home for cheaper.

There is no seating in the establishment. Food is over priced for the presentation and taste of the food. The cashier was rude. The parking lot is extremely small and if you dont plan to stay long I suggest you park on the road..Staff and customers will block you in amd then the staff have the nerve to get an attitude when asked to move.i will never go again, and I dont recommend any to visit.

Cmon on now as black people we should be happy we have opportunities now this lady was genuinely upset with everyone for ordering food , food was SALTY AND OVER COOKED. from Louisville ky and was traveling here to support black people but for you to say you don’t smile in a food industry is crazy she was very mean & rude . It hurt my feelings because I want opportunity people have and people abuse they blessings every day in my face . Do not eat here! There’s no siting

First time here and I’m a first impression kind of woman. Parking was tight. We walked in the music was extremely loud the tv was on but you couldn’t hear it. The young man never greeted us at all. When it was our turn he only stated y’all ready to order. (YOUNG BUT NEEDs BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE MANNERS). He took our order then we awaited. Another set of customers came in the location they looked at the menu. He never greeted them. He kind of just stood there, then walked away to the back, then came back then they just walked out. Another set of customers came in and they just stood there. He never greeted them. He was unloading the vehicle and bringing things into the location, but he never acknowledged him as they were standing there again It starts with CUSTOMER SERVICE MANNERS! He called our number after waiting 40 mins for our food. He gave us our bags and that was that! NO THANK YOU OR COME AGAIN! NOTHING! So our 45 min drive back home was kinda like but they show great reviews. Regular Ramen noodles from HEB was seen as well! I’m just over it! Overall the food was just ok for me! Best of luck to everyone. WE WANT BE BACK!

I did a pick up order and the atmosphere was OK. The employee didn’t greet me. The food was really really spicy but flavorful. I was not aware of how spicy it was, and it was never told to me.

This was my second visit to Leighton’s. Both visits I experienced great customer service. I had a minimal wait time and my food was nice and hot .I’ve tried the ramen lamb bowl and the ramen chicken bowl. Both were very flavorful and filled me up. Definitely check out this hidden gem 💎 if you are in the area.
