This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot. Korean BBQ restaurants typically charge per person for all-you-can-eat service with a time limit, and grills are shared at the table. Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.

Waco is in Texas, in the South, where summers are hot and humid, winters are short, and severe storms in spring are a fact of life; businesses run air conditioning most of the year and many open early to beat the heat. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Waco follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

The eggs and brisket Rangoon stole the show. Broth was a tad bit salty, but other than that, quick friendly service! On the counter, They have disposable soup spoons and chopsticks as well as a self serve roll of paper towels. They have Japanese ramune soda as well.

Well, it was our first time at this restaurant. Not to happy😌 I was asked ready to order 🙃 Not a Hello, or Welcomed to Koko Ramen or Hi, can I help you🤔😞 most restaurant workers when you walk in to restaurant. My daughter order for both of us..$30. and extra $6... for a tip not for sure why we needed to give a tip at the time we checked out. We walked up to pickup our own food and had to go back to get our drinks too. Husband and son walked away to the other food from different restaurant's. You can see by the photos the food look good. But the 🍲 🍜 had no flavor/season in the soup it was greasy enough to go through the bowl. The 🪰 🪰 🪰was driving me crazy. We asked for something to take are food home. We were given lids for the both bowl. 😏

They were out of a bunch of stuff including green tea when I went. Service was fast and didn't take too long to get my food either. Broth was good. I really liked the mountain of toppings I got; toppings tasted fresh too. The vegetarian ramen (mushroom miso) tastes kinda iffy, but their meat containing dishes are tasty. Bowls are large and you get plenty of food, but I'm not sure it's worth $13 since the noodles taste like the $0.25 packet instant noodles--it's not even Cup Noodle level instant noodles 😞

Amazing ramen. 5 spice levels. The 3 was most comfortable to eat and I'm a spice head. Since the soup is boiling hot, the 4 is good but uncomfortable. Had it at the eatery and on a 2nd occasion for delivery. Delivery offered more customization, so I ordered extra noodles, extra eggs, and a katsu fillet cut into the ramen. Best decision and best ramen I've had so far. Buns, brisket and pork, are also tasty as were the brisket egg rolls.

Just tried the new location on Saturday afternoon at Union Hall on Franklin Ave. It was great. No wait. Had the Rice Bowl with Brisket and added roasted Brussels Sprouts. Delicious. Ask for the Sweet Chili Sauce to add to the rice. It makes it perfect. Atmosphere was very pleasant. Staff very helpful and inviting. Very clean. Koko Ramen is owned by Guess Family BBQ and all meats are smoked by them, so the brisket option is very flavorful with a wonderful smoky taste. They also gave a pork belly option that I have not tried yet but am sure it is just as good.
