Great experience. The food was hot and flavorful.

The miso chicken is incredible. It’s a huge portion so expect to be full. The broth alone you could just sip on its own. Highly suggest trying this place next time you visit Optimist Hall! 😎👍

Australian man at the counter was extremely rude, mind you I gave them a 7 dollar tip and he scolded me after I picked up the food. 0/10 service would give lower.

Took a few bao buns which were pretty good. The falafel one was pretty special. First time I see a falafel bao bun.

I ordered the chicken miso the 1st time I came here and I kid you not it was half soggy skin & half chicken (which was meh). The 2nd time I visited the establishment I ordered w/o the skin, to which they fulfilled. Yesterday I came to the establishment they lied to me, saying they couldn’t remove the skin b/c it was “cooked” in the ramen (they use the same broth for the vegan tofu miso plus the broth and toppings are made & packaged separately). Only good thing they sell are the drinks but don’t waste $17/18 on the chicken miso!!!

I order from this place on Uber eats a lot, and every time I order it’s always good. Their Tonkotsu ramen is very delicious as well as their pork belly bun and their Lychee tea adds a refreshing touch to balance the meal all together. I will say that I recommend people order their chili crisp, oil, and/or paste for seasoning because the ramen can be pretty bland. But the chili crisp tends to fix that right up. Very reliable and delicious place to get your Ramen fix taken care of

On Sunday, I came to this restaurant and I ordered the Roman bowl. I received my Roman and my broth and two separate containers when I got to my car I noticed that the bag was leaking when I reached in to pull the broth out the bag the lid was not sealed properly the lid on in the broth, it wasted on my legs it was in my private area, I have been trying to contact the owner through email and and on the phone I haven’t received a callback or email. I have sustained burnt marks on my leg in my private area. I have pictures.

The bao breading is super fluffy and a delight! I wish they had more traditionally flavored options. Not having a spicy one too is such a miss! It feels like they are having to play to a less refined palate. Hoping try the ramen next time! Definitely get the chili crisp. The spicy cucumbers were great! Just no spice at all.

So many choices for dinner in the Optimist Hall! My eye was drawn to the ramen and so this was my decision.

Placing my order with a friendly young lady, my phone buzzed at me a few minutes later and I picked up my meal. A bag containing all the needed parts and I found a seat nearby to assemble. Yes, everything was ready for transport so that it would still be fresh at home so it was even better to have it immediately.

Opening the bowl of noodles and fixings, I poured the broth into the noodles and dug right in. Still hot of course and so much flavor. Mushrooms, fresh sweet corn, al dente noodles. It was beyond excellent. Absolutely delicious and fun to eat!

Knowing that your broth is tasteless and you continue to serve it to people is wild crazy. There’s no way the people that work there eat the food and go “wow this is amazing”. I never write reviews but here I am. I ordered the spicy pork ramen and it had absolutely no taste. There was no add ons or sauce on the menu that could save it. As a real ramen eater I feel like they were playing in the pots and someone stole all the seasonings (this could be a theory) Ha! I was so disappointed because it smelled good but with each bite I cried for help just wishing it had taste. I wasted $20 on this food to throw it away. I went to the empanada place next door which really saved my life.
