I can't believe I've passed this place so many times and only tried it today! Everything was great - friendly and quick service, delicious food and a very nice atmosphere.
Our order was delivered quickly, the food looked appetizing and tasted great. The dining area is comfortable, clean and quiet, and I really appreciated that there were no strong kitchen smells in the seating area.
Highly recommend and I will definitely be back!

Came here for a quick late night snack, but I ended up ordering a meal. The katsu and chicken bbq plate is a good deal for $17. I couldn’t pass that up.

Chicken was really good and the portion size is great. It is a great plate to share with another person.

Restaurant is very clean. Staff is quick to get your food and pick up after you’re done.

I’m only giving the food 4 stars because the noodles, and really that’s just me personally, I really like thicker noodles and these ones are quite thin. Think if you could get a different type of noodle that’d be fye.

But the soup is extremely delicious, and so are all the toppings (and for reference I got a veggie broth, chicken ramen), one of the BEST broths I’ve ever tasted honestly.

The portion is also a lot larger than it seems...
