Really nice ramen place, the food is of good quality, the broth and noodles delicious. I love their tofu and takoyaki. A must try!

Really enjoyed my lunch here. I've had the Spicy Miso Ramen (medium heat) and the Pork Katsu & Fries. The battered fries were perfectly crisp and fresh and the sandwich was good, but the Spicy Miso Ramen was hands down some of the best ramen I've had. The broth was creamy and flavorful, the noodles had just the right amount of substance to them, and the portion size was perfect.I'll be heading back here any time I'm in the area.

The owner has a real pride in ownership. The ramen is made by true ramen masters. I prefer the tonkatsu. Don't skip out on the sushi. Everything that I've tried is delicious. Also free parking.

Great neighborhood spot. The sushi is fresh and delicious. But I have to say the tempura roles are even better. Especially the baked salmon.

Really solid tonkotsu ramen!:) the broth is thick and flavorful and the noodles have a pleasant flavor and bounce. Overall, would definitely recommend (they’re also priced right and very filling!)

Wow, I haven't left a review in a while but had to with this place! Can only speak to the black ramen, but it was incredibly flavorful and rich!! Wow. This is also the first ramen place I've tried to ever crisp the outside of their tofu and have some flavor in it when substituting for chashu. I love ramen a ton, and when I find a spot like this I get super excited!! Much better than some of the hyped spots. It is a more casual ambiance, but still nice. The service was also good overall.Definitely recommend!

Ramen it's not their specialty, and their customer service is pathetic.Don't waste your time nor money, go anywhere else.There are many places for good Asian food in this city, this place is not.

The famous black ramen is my go to lunch meal at least once a week. The broth is rich and flavorful. Ambiance is calm and service is great. Will definitely keep coming back.

We went here for the ramen only and it is absolutely top tier!!! I gave 4 stars because we ate on site and the service wasn't terrible or bad, but definitely could be improved.

I was really disappointed by the service and overall experience.Upon arrival and being seated we were told there was no sushi. And when we did asks questions the server was hard to hear in terms of the volume of her voice and had no answers for any of our questions.I would and will not come here again.
