A small but powerful ramen empire is deepening its hold on the hearts and stomachs of DFW diners. Wabi House, a popular concept from chefs Dien Nguyen and Kenzo Tran, will be opening its fourth location in Keller later this year, reports Culture Map Fort Worth.
The Asian eatery will be taking over the scenic space at 111 West Vine Street that previously housed Station Patio Ice House. According to paperwork filed with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, the building will provide Wabi House with 5,200 square feet of space to greet and feed guests.
Wabi House’s Old Town Keller location will offer both indoor and outdoor seating, which is certain to be a powerful draw for neighborhood foodies.
Of course, the food is the greatest star of any Wabi House location, and Keller diners can look forward to a few exclusive items distinct to the local menu. While the restaurant does offer small plate options, the ramen is the focus. Visitors can choose from six flavor options, and a wide array of toppings make meals highly customizable.
Construction began on the restaurant’s renovation on January 15 of this year and is set to conclude by June 1. Ownership anticipates an autumn opening.
