Very cozy and tastefully decorated place!

The menu is just perfect with enough options for everything- apps, ramen, veggies, etc.

The vegetarian curry ramen is incredible with so much depth in flavor. They were also able to customize the tom yum ramen with vegetarian broth and it was SO good! The perfect balance of flavor and sour.

The edamame was well cooked - firm enough and smoked!

Would definitely...
