Definitely authentic and perfect flavors

At Airi Ramen, every dish, service and decoration carries with them a Japanese-style impression. The flavors and preparation processes of all dishes are almost identical to those practiced in Japan from generation to generation. This has been highly recognized and acclaimed by local Japanese diners, a sufficient proof that the restaurant is adhering to a “quality first” principle.

The restaurant imposes very high requirements on dish qualities. All foods are made from scratch: from carefully selected fresh ingredients, elaborate preparation processes to relentless improvement on flavors, their pursuit of perfection is endless. This is especially true with the ramen broth: boiled with strictly selected pork bones for 16 hours, the soup tastes smoothly mellow with infinite aftertastes. The noodles themselves are also entirely made by the restaurant just for ensuring their chewy texture, which is a rare practice in most ramen restaurants.

The Spicy Miso Ramen, a popular offering of the restaurant, has undergone two rounds of improvements on ingredients and toppings, which produces a dreamy combination of fragrance and spiciness after combined with the broth.

The limited offering of 72-hour Beef Ramen is made by a especially elaborate process: strictly-selected fresh beef is first marinated for several days and then gently simmered for 72 hours to lock the water in the meat and thus preserve the tender texture. Take one bite and you feel the beef melts instantly in your mouth; the refreshingly smooth noodles and mellow soup also create a lingering aftertaste.

Crispy Calamari, the king of all snacks, is also made from squid soaked in a secrete broth, and then deep fired until its skin becomes crispy with hydrated tender meat inside.

A relentless endeavor to make breakthroughs

In addition to its insistence on high criteria and strict requirements, the restaurant has also exerted much effort to constantly improve its dishes and services. Adhering to the principle of satisfying every customer’s needs, staff members of the restaurant hold regular meetings with experienced ramen chefs, who are either visited or invited to the restaurant, to learn from them in order to make all-round and meticulous technical improvements. Every aspect of the restaurant, from dish flavors and sanitation to the selection and matching of every piece of tableware, is meant to create the best dining experience.

Ever since its launch, Airi Ramen has been among the top dining destinations in the locality and widely reported by mainstream media. It was also rated as “The Best 13 Ramen in Houston 2021” by Houston Chronicle. In addition to its effort to make high-quality food, Airi Ramen is also an enthusiastic contributor to charity. The restaurant pledges that it will donate 1% of its profits to the society on a daily basis, a manifestation of its dedication to social responsibilities.
