We just finished a follow up doctor's appointment and were craving some ramen. Google search returned Kuu Ramen as it's first choice and it was an amazing meal. Both of our ramen's broth hit the spot and warmed up our souls!

My son and I went to this place and it was great. The food was great, especially the crispy pork belly. The waiters were nice and the food came very fast. The overall atmosphere was amazing. Will come again.

Solid ramen spot. Popped in here on whim on a very cold day and it was perfect. Service was great and the ramen was excellent. I got the veggie. The right amount of savory without being too salty. If you’re in the area or want to make the trek to 1st Ave and love ramen, come here!
