I often get delivery from them and I love how they package their ramen! The noodles are in their own compartment so no worries about it getting soggy before you can enjoy it. Always top notch ramen!

A bit on the pricier side for the portions, but the ramen and other dishes are solid and delicious. The food comes out pretty fast and the in-store seating area is cozy and private for small groups if you don't wanna eat in the mall dining area
