Ramen shop with a second-floor izakaya (Japanese bar). Loved the atmosphere. Happy hour with nice specials. Great variety of spirits. Their old fashioned is mixed to perfection.

This was a great experience. I would recommend this place to anyone that wants Ramen.
The ramen is delicious and the noodles are fabulous. There is every bourbon in the universe here. The atmosphere is really Modern and yet rustic. The only complaint I have is the music.

Very mediocre white people ramen for $18 a bowl. I’ve never seen a tonkotsu ramen with pickles and spinach. Broth was also a bit light for a tonkotsu. Didn’t try any of the other dishes but the ramen just was not good.

10/10 we live 2 hours away and we still think it’s 100% worth it. My server was ✨Xenia ? and afterward the bartender/ manager (he didn’t specify,but he seemed like one) was so nice to me and understood that I’m the type of customer who only cares… not a complainer ✨?✨ the ramen ahhhhh so good better than anything ever. I’m so happy I was recommended this place by a TOTAL STRANGER ? well strangers really. GREAT JOB CHEF! Austin and Xenia thank you for your hospitality.

Me and my husband stopped in for dinner and it was amazing. The food had so many flavors and we had so much food. It was our first time there. We will most definitely be back. The server was amazing.
This place was great! What shocked me the most is they have Blantons! Which is crazy. A lot of places don’t carry that. You can’t even get that in the store haha. The food was great and the service was even better. I will be returning.

Killer food, killer bar, and really great service from Karla. This place has great ramen, some very legit Izakaya offerings and an amazing bar program with killer Japanese beers and whiskeys as well as great stuff from elsewhere. We came for a drink and ended up staying for hours, eating and drinking really well.
We sat at the bar. Drinks were fine, but the food was pretty bad. Ramen noodles aren’t house made, seemed frozen, the broth wasn’t good at all and the pickled onion was too sour and stood out in a bad way (I love pickled onions). Pork and kimchi Dumplings were frozen and the chili oil dipping sauce didn’t compliment the taste at all. The miso wings were really good but over salted. Cucumber was OK. Wouldn’t go back.

Come hungry!! Great flavors and a huge portion size typical to ramen spots. Vegetarian ramen had a great variety of vegetables, and the vegetable tempura (which I think was a special) was a delicious, seasonal appetizer.

Everything was very good and fresh definitely spent a lot of time preparing this food. Make sure you come and see Ruby and have her prepare you a cocktail.

The atmosphere and service was great. Not sure if this was a bad night, but everything from the apps to both our ramen dishes were over-salted and not very flavorful.
