Chicken karaage appetizer was OK.
Ramen soup was not strong enough in flavor.
Overall is good dinner.

This is probably my favorite ramen place as of yet. I get the black garlic ramen almost every time. The broth is so flavorful and the pork belly slices I got in my ramen were the best I've had. I also tried the poke bowl, okonomiyaki, takoyaki, all delicious. This place is a must-visit if you're in the Santa Barbara area!

My favorite ramen place! My husband and I have been going there for a long time because we love it. The flavor, the portions, the service—everything is 10/10. I hope they never lower the quality of the food, because that would be very sad. I highly recommend it.

Excellent in all respects.
Spicy red and an order of pork buns. Hard to find better.
Great service as well.
Repeat visits. Consistently dependable.

Got in to the restaurant right as they were opening up for dinner at 5. Sat down at my table immediately and had my food delivered in less than 10 minutes, super fast service.

My Tonkotsu Spicy “Aka” Ramen with Pork Belly was the perfect temperature, hot and ready to eat right away. The texture of the noodles, I got thick style, was great. Al dente, not too hard or soft. The broth was rich and creamy, the spice was intense at first. Definitely be prepared for high spice. The pork belly was a delicious mix of crispy and tender. A bunch of great additions to the ramen including scallions, mushrooms, and seaweed rounded out the dish. Not too heavy for ramen either, which I find to be the case sometimes with these noodles.

Overall, a 10/10 and would order many times over—finished every last bite.

It was a little dirty from my job. When I tried to get in, they closed the door. When I sat down, the waiters just looked at me and didn't serve me. Then two people came in and were served immediately. It's so awful to see these kinds of racist people.

What a fantastic place! We started with a rainbow roll. Then I got the ramen salad with a wonderful sesame ginger dressing. My son got the tonkatsu ramen with pork belly and added in an egg. This was the best I've ever had! We will be back!

The ramen was amazing. I had the black garlic Tongatsu pork belly ramen and my husband had the Shoyu pork shoulder ramen. They were both very good with the right balance of flavors. We dug into so quickly that we forgot to even take any pictures.

Parking: There is another affiliated restaurant - Nikka Seafood Grill across the street that we would like to try next time.
