Kiku Ramen + Boba 9910 Gaston Road, Katy, TX 77494

"This place looks so adorable and has promise but I have to voice a few things that bothered me 1) The workers work gloves but no hairnet. Then would touch the money with the gloves and not change them. I think be aware that hair falls and skin sheds so if you’re making the drinks just make the drinks. Please don’t hold the cups as you help a customer and contaminate. 2) I ordered my boba with strawberry poppin and they forgot to put it in and asked me to take it on the side but gave it with no cover. My second order came with a removable top and I would have appreciated if they remade my order as I wanted"

"The food was great, especially for the prices. Their drinks are good, not overly sweet but not under flavored. They do not have that many staff members so there may be a bit of a wait if you go at a busier time. The store itself is smaller so everything is close semi-close meaning the walkways aren't as wide and customers will be closer together."

"Excellent Japanese noodles! My first time trying the Steak Mazemen (soupless thick noodles with a large piece of steak) and it was special and very tasty! We also ordered the Tonkotsu Kuro and Shrimp Tempura Udon (they gave you 6 shrimps!) and they were delicious too! A few of the drinks use real fruits (such as pineapple, mango and taro) and are relatively cheaper than a regular boba shop. Staff are attentive and friendly. We had a joyful evening with wonderful and tasty food in a warm atmosphere environment! Definitely will come back to this place again!"

"Beautiful design in the restaurant! Great service and the servers were kind and attentive. The food came out quickly and they tasted amazing! The ramen had great depth of flavor and the noodles were cooked perfectly! Their tea is very fresh as it is not from a tea bag. They had great vegetarian options too! We will definitely be coming back!"

"The ramens are very tasty. The drinks are good value for money. I highly recommend the taro coconut slushy. They probably use the real taro as you tell from the texture of the slushy. Some say that the wait is long. But I did not have that experience over the last two visits."
