I was craving some ramen and noticed this place had a lot of good reviews which influenced me to check it out. I came here right when they opened at 5pm Thursday and was seated right away.

I enjoyed the texture of the noodles (wish there was a little more) and the broth was tasty (just a little thicker than what I'm use to). I'd recommend this place.
