Yokai Ramen Bistro

I am very new to trying Ramen and my first experience was at this restaurant. The ramen was very flavorful and filling and I’d assumed every bowl of ramen I’d try would be. This past weekend, I stopped at another place while I was in Philly and I was honestly underwhelmed. Upon returning to this area, I decided to stop here again for some Tonkotsu ramen and it was as delicious, flavorful, and filling as the first time I’d come here. The music is so soothing and it really adds to the relaxing, laid back atmosphere. The service is always warm and welcoming, as well as attentive and fast! They serve you quickly without making you feel rushed or like you’re a nuisance taking up space. I’m really grateful I stumbled upon this restaurant.

Such a great ramen spot! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was amazing, and Erica truly made the experience even better. Definitely coming back.

Food here is delicious. They brought our food quickly and warm, it tasted really good!!! Place is calm and nice. The prices are fair for the quality of the food.

Picked up an order and it was ready quickly. I was very impressed with how delicious everything was. Sometimes food doesn't hold up to go, but Yokai packaged everything nicely and it still all tasted fresh. The menu looked great so I will have to go back to try more!

I happened to come upon Yokai via both Upside as well as doing a search for local Japanese eateries. Since the bistro has very good reviews and an interesting menu, I decided to try them out.

However, you don't have to walk too far to get in from your parking space. The interior is very nice and clean and is tastefully decorated. The dining area is spacious as well and plenty of room to make yourself comfortable. Both times I went (Friday evenings) was oddly quiet in the dining area; however there were several customers getting take out from the restaurant. For someone like me wh
