Weak broth but everything was well put together. I liked how cooked the chicken karaage and pork in the ramens were.

had lunch Wife left a white bag full of snacks for our Trip on chair next to my wife Walked out the door walked across the street. Turn back around. I server clean the table off and said they never saw them which is virtually impossible. Talk to the guy at the front he described the bag and said he never saw it, which we never told him what the bag looked like. Ridiculous You could say maybe somebody else grabbed it Super unlikely you just had to be there

Came in for lunch and was seated immediately, they have a really big menu of sushi and ramen. The food was good and the presentation was very pretty! Waitress was nice and friendly, although we felt slightly rushed. I’d recommend coming in for their lunch special

No waiting space for carry out. Ambience was a bit flat. Food was luke warm and messy rolls. Fish was decent, but the overall experience and food was not impressive.

The pork in the ramen was great. Noodle was too thin for my taste but the broth was good. Shio and Shoyu were both good picks. Karage was not my favorite or the Gyozas.

I got the spicy kaarage ramen and shrimp fried rice. The rice is sweet, I'm not sure what oil the cook it in but you taste the sugar. I will pass on the rice. But that spicy kaarage ramen, watch out! Make sure you got your water because they didn't come to play! It's a nice place to have a date night.

Not actually open during their stated hours. Come during hours near opening and expect to be flat out turned away.

Came here on a Thursday afternoon around 2 PM. Only 2 other parties in the location when I showed up. Scanned the QR code and looked over the menu.

Ordered a philli maki sushi roll and pork miso ramen.

Sushi came within five minutes of ordering it however $11 for six pieces of sushi that was not even made properly is kind of crazy. Upon trying to pick the first piece up, it completely fell apart.

The salmon was warm but definitely not fresh as it had a strong fish scent. I’ve had better sushi at a grocery store.

The Pork miso ramen was a large portion but lack the basic flavor. Miso is supposed to be thick and creamy, and it tasted extremely bland. The broth was extremely underwhelming.
The toppings are basic generic ramen toppings.
The 1/2 egg was cooked perfectly but lacked so much of the savory flavor.
The pork Chasu was so sweet when I took a bite i almost spit it out.

I was here for about 45 minutes total- the staff seemed nice but I sat for 25 minutes after the ramen was delivered and no one checked on me or offered the check. Before I left I was finally able to get the persons attention to grab the check.

Not worth the $36 I paid for 2 items.

I'm not sure what the people who are reviewing this place are custom to. The young people working there are nice but the sushi is horrible. Rest of offerings weren't much better. You can't touch sushi without it falling apart. That's too bad. Years ago when the location was under different name / ownership I assume it was much better. I guess we've gotten used to mediocracy since COVID and these owners know it.

This is a ramen shop. It is ok. Everything else bad. The worst is their sushi. Costco is better. Judging by their dirty restroom, I would like to suggest the shop could not survive.
