Katsu Sando was a 10/10 as was the karage rice bowl. The sando was definitely a fried piece of meat in buttered bread - done like a dream, though. The karage rice bowl was surprising - the flavors and textures were light as air and so balanced. Japanese curry with katsu tasted like it looks in anime home cooking- very homey.

Ramen was really good probably one of the best ramen places in New Haven. We got there an hour before closing and there were some things they were out of (understandably) but the quality of our food was amazing.

Visiting from out of state, the Tonkatsu was super yummy! The Chicken soup dumplings were yummy as well as the Ramen! The Taro boba tea was my favorite I ordered 2! We enjoyed & it seemed super authentic. Definitely would recommend and come back!

Stopped in for a few snacks. Had a steamed dumpling, a soup dumpling and gyoza. all were decent. would have preferred more flavor all were very bland. Will try the ramen and update the review.

GREAT ramen! SUPER flavorful and a solid price. The chef puts a lot of care into each detail, from the pork, the noodles, and of course the egg. This is my good-to spot in New Haven. Looking forward to my next visit.

I stopped by to try their ramen and ended up liking the Tebasaki wings appetizer more. The Tebasaki chicken wings were fried just right and had a tasty sweet and savory crunchy coating. The ramen was good too. The chintan shio broth was clean and light with a Hong Kong-influenced flavor. The marinated egg is a nice bonus. Based on the quality of what I had here, I’ll definitely check out their dim sum menu next time.

The ramen is OK. I didn't like the charred pork chashu. It tasted burnt.

Wow!! I didn't have much expectation of this place but the Hong Kong style noodles blew us away!! The fresh noodles are extremely bouncy, chewy, and al dente. My family from Hong Kong really approved of the flavor and quality of the noodles with both spicy and plain beef. Chicken karaage and ramen were good as well but not as big of a standout compared to the items from the Hong Kong style menu. Will definitely be back to try the watercress dumpling noodle soup as that is a true HK classic. Portions were just right - not too big or small and easily filling for dinner. Broth slightly on the saltier side but not terrible, still tasted great!
This is the best Japanese/Asian restaurant. The food is true quality, so authentic like nothing I’ve ever had. We’ve been there a couple times and it never disappoints, always excellent and especially fresh. Can’t recommend enough.
The service is great, our servers have been very kind. The atmosphere is very cozy and calm, with sophisticated vibes.
The owner is very professional and welcoming, you can tell he puts his heart and soul into the restaurant .
Pictured is a salmon dish , I Believe was called Ochazuke. It was a special that day. My favorite part of it was the rice pearls, which I’ve never had. The salmon was cooked to perfection.
Also, the restaurant is very clean. The bathroom is spotless. They maintain everything very well.
food was good. But they charged $3 for a couple of spoons chili sauce. When I asked for a bit vinegar with my buns, I was refused and told vinegar is only for soup dumplings.
