My new favorite place to grab a bite! Absolutely delicious, fresh food, kind people. My favorites are the Kani Crab Salad and the Avocado Crab Meat Burrito. Also the pineapple fruit tea! 10 out of 10.

Poke N’ Ramen
That vibrant spot, Poke N’ Ramen, nestled in the Colonie Center food court, finally got my attention! I’ve walked by it countless times, and today, the curiosity won.
First impressions? Their customer service is truly exceptional. The staff was incredibly welcoming, super helpful, and answered every question I had without the slightest hesitation. Great people are clearly running this great poke spot.
We started with the Mango Tea with Strawberry Boba, and it was honestly excellent. The mango flavor was perfectly present—sweet but never cloying, striking a beautiful balance. To hit a perfect 10, though, I’d need a slightly more unique flavor profile. 7/10
Moving on to the food, I ordered the Kani Salad, which featured imitation crab, spicy mayonnaise, and chives (or green onions). This one was just okay for me. I’m not a big fan of the imitation crab texture, and frankly, the dish needed significantly more sauce to elevate it. 5/10
For my entree, I wanted to try something outside the box and went for the Sushi Teriyaki Chicken Burrito. It was genuinely good, with each component tasting fresh individually, but I probably wouldn’t order it again. The seaweed wrap, serving as the “tortilla,” wasn’t my favorite element. 6.5/10
Overall, this is definitely a solid spot I recommend checking out. The experience promises great service and intriguing menu items. My next stop will absolutely be the ramen, so stay tuned for that review!

Surprisingly delicious!
I was looking for Ramen and found this hidden gem of a place for food within the mall. There was quite the variety for food choices and also for beverages. The staff was very friendly and cordial, I definitely would eat food from this restaurant again!

Absolutely delicious! I purchased the grilled chicken ramen bowl with the miso (bean paste) soup. My beverage of choice was the passion fruit milk tea with pearls. Their special is the boba tea for $3.95 with the purchase of your entree. $16.90 + $1.35 (8.00% tax) totalling $18.25. The customer service is great and this food court restaurant is bright and inviting. Well done!

The first time eating there I fell in love with this place. The food is DELICIOUS, very fresh and healthy. I had ramen with 2 eggs, tofu, and chives. The food took a little while to be made as expected since it’s very fresh. Me and my family sat inside and the entire place was very clean, nice, and well decorated.

Well let’s just say my Ramen I ordered look nothing like the pictures online or even on the menu. This was our first experience and we went because of the reviews didn’t realize it was in the mall. We still tried it I got the chicken ramen bowl and I didn’t know it was going to have big chunks of seaweed and a weird pink swirly fish disc which I had no idea what it was, at first I thought it was a radish. I don’t understand why they put all this ocean stuff in if I ordered chicken. Also there was so much liquid it went over all the stuff in the bowl and it all had a fishy taste to it. Let’s just say I went home and puked my brains out. I am not a fish eater I don’t like anything that tastes like fish. I guess next time I’m going to have to ask questions and make sure there’s no fish products in my food. My son got the honey boba tea and he really liked it and that’s why I gave it a Star instead of none

This was the best ramen I’ve had in a while! I love how I was able to build my own ramen with the help of the amazing staff. It’s also super affordable. I 10/10 recommend. Best food court option at Colonie Center!!

My wife and I always come here almost every weekend. It’s so delicious and honestly it beats all the other food joints there. I have no problem spending so much money eating there! They even help you decide and choose what you would like to eat. I just moved here from California and I’m going to be honest the food around the area sucks but this place is like the light of hope for me. For those who gave this place a one star review have no sense of taste.
