The sups and the bobas delicious. Definitely coming back. I didn’t think Lompoc had great restaurants!!
Sydney was really great and patient with the service. Even though one of the dishes was really spicy for me, she was very understanding and got it replaced for me. We had the ramen and it was really creamy and tasty.
It’s an amazing place to have good ramen, the waitress was so nice and helped with everything. Highly recommend this place.
