We enjoyed coming here but we moved far away. Service is fast. I just wish them portions were larger for the price.

We were initially thrilled about the variety of ramen options, but our excitement turned into disappointment when we realized that all ramen choices featured pork broth. Unfortunately, there were no pure vegetarian, vegan, or chicken alternatives. As a result, we opted for bento box selections, specifically the Chicken Karaage Curry and BBQ Chicken. Arriving around 9 pm on a weekday, we found that noodles were already unavailable, so we had to settle for rice only. Despite this, we enjoyed the well-presented and flavorful BBQ Chicken more than the Karaage Chicken, although the curry portion wasn't sufficient for all four chicken pieces. Overall, it was a satisfying meal, but we wished for more diverse options, especially in the ramen selection.

Always a hearty meal & good portions. I hope in the future they will consider hosting either game nights or watch parties here :)

Came here because nothing else was open and was craving for some ramen. This is a perfect place if you want a nice soup of ramen or even a late snack. Ordering food was very convenient and fast. Lots of options to choose from too! The food was good but then egg was too cook and tasted a bit weird. Otherwise i was very satisfied with everything else.

Great ramen with a creamy flavorful broth and good variety of sides. Affordable prices. Accepts visa. Parking can be tough.
