Very good service. Ordered spicy Tonkatsu. Meat was well cooked and plentiful. Spice was just tight (I usually ask for medium). Noodles were fresh and cooked perfectly. I'll come again.

Small mom n pop place with small seating. I don't get why ramen reviews here are high. I ordered the tonkotsu and they said it would take 25min due to online orders and short staff. I also asked for ice in my water, which they acknowledged but never gave me the ice. When I received my ramen, the pork was dry, did not have much flavor and was thin cuts. The description of what it should come with in the menu was totally different from what I received. No corn, no green seaweed, and instead I received the shredded brown seaweed, red ginger and white bean sprouts. The broth was bland. This ramen is nothing like other ramen places that have much more flavor. I would not recommend this place for ramen. Skip and find something better.

Glad to see this ramen place made it and still survives after the pandemic. My top pick ramen place in the bay area.

This is one of my favorite Ramen places in the bay. Great selection of broths. I usually get the spicy garlic and I destroy it each time. Today I got the Curry Ramen a d it was wonderful.

Excellent Ramen ! So many choices. The restaurant is small and you May have to wait for a seat, it's worth it. Customer service is excellent. Appetizers are good too ! Delicious Garlic Ramen !!! Chicken Kaarage is great !

Plenty of options for Raman. This little shop is delightful. Gyzoa is on point and grilled squid is a very nice change.

We ordered chicken karaage, garlic tonkotsu ramen and okura don, all of them are delicious. Their service is also great.

The ramen was decent and they offer some sushi options from the neighboring restaurant which is nice. The service is nice, they are extra friendly and welcoming. It's a place you feel like coming back to. Portions are filling and they have a variety of appetizers and even some dessert.
