I was excited about the good reviews, but still wary of "asian fusion." But it turned out to be excellent! Had the O-Miso and the Cornish Hen (so crispy!) I went to Japan earlier this summer and had lots of great ramen there, and this place is my #2 after the OG Ippudo in Kyoto. After we left my girlfriend pointed out the chefs were Asian, which we appreciated.
The vibe was surprisingly fancy and the quality of food is remarkable for the price point (or any price point for that matter). It is definitely good value.
Service was excellent, and the menu is a great variety without overlap. I'm looking forward to trying more of it!
Only disappointment was that the King and I was overflowing while this place had only a few diners : (
Amazing!! We ordered the lettuce wraps, egg encrusted shrimp wonton, and the crab rangoon... all delicious. The crab Rangoon was very unique, lots of crab flavor and much more gourmet than expected! The entree we ordered was Bibmibap— insane. The beef and chicken were incredible and the sauces were so good. We finished every last piece of rice just to get the sauces!
Great place to grab a tasty bubble tea! Located off of Grand, on Jaunita Street in Tower Grove. VP Square has a large selection of bubble tea flavors as well as add in options like tapioca pearls, jellies, and popping boba. VP Square also has a dining room where you can grab a bite of Asian cuisine. Check out the happy hour at this place (great deals on food and drinks). I have eaten here in the past and highly recommend the food here.
I don't think I can offer enough praise for this place. The one in person visit was great, with a few tables setup on the sidewalk. The staff recommendations were spot on, and the food was glorious.
Since when, I've ordered it 4-5 times for delivery via Uber Eats. I've yet to have a dish was anything but amazing. I did not think they'd be able to outdo the Sriracha shrimp, but the coconut shrimp somehow managed it.
This place wasn't bad. Decent food that was reasonably priced in my opinion. I ordered the tonkatsu ramen, asain crepe, siracha shrimp and bubble milk tea. The tonkatsu ramen wasn't very flavorful as it lacks that rich creamy tonkatsu broth. The crepe tasted good but it could have been crispier. The siracha shrimp tasted good as well but nothing special. Their bubble tea was sweeter than normal milk tea and lacked actual tea taste. I personally stay away from Asian restaurants that have a variety of Asian cusine but this was one I don't regret trying. Next time I come I will try the hotpot and other dishes that seemed interesting. I definitely need to try more of their dishes as I think this place has potential.
I got this delivered to me while dine-in options were closed for the pandemic and it came quickly (through DoorDash) and arrived still hot. The bibimbap is good but I'm craving more of the meat and less mushrooms. The meat and the egg I think is the best part of the bibimbap. The housemade crab rangoons were a surprising shape but good, I think it came with 6, maybe 5 because I had already eaten some before I took the picture.
Great food, great bubble tea, great service. We got the crab Rangoon, Hawaiian poke bowl, VP fried chicken, pineapple bubble tea and Thai tea bubble tea. Good location but parking is a a little tight in front of the building but you can go down the block a bit and parking opens up.
Had the tonkotsu ramen. Rich broth, not too salty. Noodles were nice and chewy. Went on a Saturday at 1 and it was not busy at all. Will have to come back to try some of the other things on the menu
The store gas been closed with no explanation for about a week and I am just sick with grief. There aren't any updates anywhere so idk what to expect. I hope everyone is okay and all is well. Plz god, it's the first & best ramen I've ever tasted.
Wow! This is the best Asian restaurant outside of U City. A variety of cuisines - Vietnamese, Korean, & Japanese - all perfectly executed. Start with the unique egg-encrusted shrimp wontons. The bibimbap and tofu yaki-udon were both delicious. A great addition to the international restaurants in the S. Grand neighborhood!
Got carryout, great service, amazing food, some of the best crab rangoon I've ever had, wonderful ramen!
This is definitely a hidden gem! One of the top foods I've tasted in the world. The head chef/manager there, JT is an artist with his recipes! Can not wait to come back!!!
