Foods always great, though you may have to wait a little if you go for dinner on a busy night. Price reflects the quality, a little high but by far everything is delicious. Would recommend the black edition and kimchi ramen in particular!
August 2025
Great place for a fun lunch, dinner or late night supper. Lively atmosphere in a nice setting. Well-crafted ramen and fried chicken/kaarage dishes. (We didn't try the sushi/rolls). Just very tasty and unpretentious. A modest selection of good draft beers, wine and soju. You won't be disappointed.
August 2025
Great menu in terms of variety, as they offer both Ramen and sushi. Prices are on the higher end, dinner for 4 was $220 after tip. That was with 2 beers, 1 glass of wine, and 1 ice tea. No appetizers.
