Their ramen is next level. The Darkness is their signature dish for a reason. Give it a try, you won't regret it.

My go-to place for Japanese Ramen where I live. The Darkness Ramen is my fave entree and 9 Spices is a good appetizer that's crispy and spicy if you're into chicken wings. The interior feels unfinished. Parking is plenty.

Cute little dining area, great service and food. Ramen broth was rich and flavorful. Gyudon was delicious. Every piece of meat was tender and cooked just right. We will be back. Definitely recommend.

Good quality sushi at a decent price. One issue is I don't get the text message that my carryout order is ready until an hour or two after I pick it up. Also the service could be friendlier. Overall good. Never eaten in though so I can't speak for that part.
Sushi and ramen were delicious! But the server is incredibly rude. Didn’t even give my daughter a drink and was just running around the place. Never got the chance to ask for an extra water. Some of the worst service I have ever received at a restaurant. It was so bad that I had to knock this down to 3 stars. I understand that she was busy and doesn’t have much help but have some standards.

If I could recommend one dish to try, I’d be Tiger Belly’s chicken wings! They’re by far among the best and possibly THE BEST I’ve ever had. You will not be disappointed.

Read great reviews and saw delicious pictures online of this place. I bookmarked it and have been trying to get here for a while.
The front entrance was locked with a sign saying to use the side door. The interior was very minimalistic. I was greet right away and I asked if they had a high chair, which they did. We were seated and brought waters right away. They didn't have a children's menu so I ordered my toddler ramen and broth which they happily obliged; this was $10 for anyone wondering. My husband and I shared two sushi rolls which was a lunch special; Philadelphia Roll and eel/avocado roll, both were fresh and tasty.
My main course, "the Darkness Ramen", in tonkotsu broth, pork belly, fried garlic, ajitama cured egg, bean sprouts, green onions, bamboo shoots, kikurage earwood mushroom with black garlic oil. The pork was very tender and melted in my mouth and the egg had a unique flavor; every flavor intermingled perfectly. I'm more of a fan of tangy and spicy flavors but I'm glad I got to try this out. I'm looking forward to going back to try out their wings, other entrees, and sushi.
