The sushi is fresh daily! I’ve seen their trucks delivering fresh fish all the time. The tonkatsu ramen is amazing and their poke rainbow bowl is delicious, filling, light and a great value. Their lunch boxes are the best deal in town. Can’t beat the food you get for the price. You get a salad, a soup, and an entree with veggies noodles rice and protein with gyoza for about 12-15$.

The Fried noodle is a mess. We order fried noodle with beef, first of all the beef comes awful, they didn't stir fry the beef, it looks like they boiled the beef and go to pan to mix with noodles and sauce, making the beef tough and dry. The noodles are alo not good, they sticker altogether, I think the whole dish is the worst fried noodle ever.
