SO good! The ramen is my favorite. The food, atmosphere, and service are all amazing. I went here for my birthday one time and it was spectacular! I would definitely recommend.

We heard from a friend about how great this place was so we decided to check it out for lunch on Valentine’s Day. The service was amazing and fast! Also, the ramen was super yummy. We will be coming back. ?

Great ramen bowls - so much flavor. Appetizers (pork gyoza calamari and edamame) also delicious. Aromatic hot tea. Service was also awesome.

Came in on Sunday night, not busy at all. Food is reasonably priced. Service is okay, could be more friendlier. But it’s ramen shop. We only ordered tonkatsu ramen, spicy and regular. The spicy one is very spicy. But It’s not salty as I expected. It comes with very nice soft boiled eggs. Tonkatsu is thin sliced and flavorful but not too salty. Hot tea is nice. Yume is our favorite compare to momoko. It’s different tea and we really enjoy them with ramen. The atmosphere reminds us of a ramen shop we went in Yokohama Japan, but it looks a bit uninviting.

A couple of vegetarian offerings on the menu, which is appreciated, but the quality was lacking. Neither the ramen nor the gyoza were piping hot, just warm. The broth of the ramen was kind of thin and did not have enough umami. The overall taste was of canned veggies. The gyoza was good. The smaller tables are all crammed further inside with little space between them. Did not appreciate being ushered to the last of those tables in the crowded area, while all of the larger tables were vacant. Will not repeat.

This place stole my money. I came in with a group of 7. I asked the server if the 18% gratuity was part of the final bill, and he said yes (which it was). Because of this, I selected “no tip” and signed my name. A few days later I check my credit card bill and an extra $10 tip was added onto the bill. This means in total, I tipped them 35% for mediocre service. I called them and they could not provide me with a receipt, nor did the manager ever call me to sort it out, despite saying they would. I would dispute it on my credit card but it’s not worth it for $10, it just pisses me off and I won’t come here again.

A must visit whenever I am back in town. Ramen here was even better that what I had remembered! I had the chicken shio today and was very happy with both the taste and the portion. The broth was rich and flavorful. They weren't skimping on any of the toppings. I was particularly impressed with how tender the chicken chashu was. The texture of the noodles was the perfect balance between firm and chewy, resulting in such satisfying bites. Service was attentive and quick. I have had ramen in Japan yet always find myself enjoying a bowl here. I think that says a lot.

The food was good. The service was pretty mediocre. We were awkwardly asked to pay right after our food was brought out, before we even took a single bite. The reason given was because they were taking breaks soon. Perhaps this is why I also felt so rushed to order when looking at the menu. It was my first time at the restaurant after years of saying how I would like to try it. Our server was helpful and informative in terms of explaining menu items, but I felt an underlying pressure to decide quickly rather than being given some time to consider my options. Beyond the initial service provided, there was not really any follow-up, as our server left right away. I expect much better service for the relatively high prices and I hope my dad didn’t tip too much before we ate because the service was minimal.
