One of my best ramen place in Jersey… although the taste changed a little post COVID, the food still hits the spot.

Food is just ok, but the price is comparable with NYC. Restaurant is a bit old. Service is ok.

My husband and I enjoyed the Ramen. Both the oxtail and the pork were well made and the broth really rich and tasty. Egg was delicious, with an intense umami flavor. We also both enjoyed the mushrooms in the soup. We will definitely come back. Service was a bit slow and if you sit by the entrance in the winter can be cold.

The gyoza came with so much oil and grease on the bottom? Also the ramen I could not eat two bites without feeling nauseous and thirsty. They put too much msg in it.

I ordered pickup. The food was average, at best. I ordered the most popular ramen and two appetizers. Arrived for pickup on time after a 40-minute wait, but food was cold. The portions were pretty small for the price. Not really worth the cost in this economy if you are sitting down for a meal with friends in the actual restaurant. And even then, you'll need to be drunk if you are actually paying this much, plus tip, for what amounts to fast-food grade bland ramen with smaller portions than what is depicted on their menu.

Simple, affordable ramen spot! Dinner for 2 came out to $45- simply unheard of in NYC!
Their ramen is simple but delicious. The Tofu Ramen was especially tasty with sweet, flavorful grilled tofu.
The Karage (fried chicken) was a little strange since it was served with marinara sauce.. definitely not authentic.

I love this place...they have yummy small plates, gyoza, chicken buns and scallion pancakes. I also ordered the chicken Ramen - very soothing and delicious. I find the price appropriate. We've had the same server in the past month and she is awesome, very attentive and gracious.
Not good, can skip! Extremely slow service for food that is at best average.

We waited for 40 minutes. My friend's soup was good but mine was very, very salty.

Small cozy place with the best ramen you can find in the area, truly love it and can't wait to go again (to be honest I haven't been there in a year, so think of this review as an older one)
Though on Newark Ave it still has a quieter atmosphere than most which I appreciate. Their Chashu buns are great and I wish I could eat more if it wasn't for their ramen.
I usually go for the Ox Tail or Spicy Kalbi, but the chicken and pork are just as good (each one is pretty tasty) with the rich broth and nice noodles they make alongside it. With a good amount of ingredients even if you can't finish it there the flavors will marinate for the next day. Definitely a go to spot for me.
5 star service. We left behind a personal item at the restaurant and called the next day and the management was incredibly helpful with keeping our item secure. We were incredibly grateful.

Solid spot to get your soup on. Tried the Kalbi Ramen during a particularly rainy day, and it hit the spot with its spicy pork broth and loads of accompaniments. The abundance of bamboo and mushrooms was a particularly nice way to get my crunch on.

Impression of this place was: meh. We were craving ramen and decided to try out this place since it was nearby. We got the wild pepper pork ramen and the kalbi ramen. Even though it had a good amount of spice, the broth itself left much to be desired and didn’t leave us with the umami taste you want to experience when you get ramen. Meat was chopped up pieces of cold pork that was not fresh instead of the nice hot fresh slices of chashu, and the kalbi was chewy and not very flavorful. Toppings were not very interesting, just half a soft boiled egg and some scallions. Overall a pretty mediocre ramen and wouldn’t recommend as there are other better ramen places within 10 minutes.
