I found this place on a Saturday night, being nearby Chinatown and craving sushi. We both got yellowtail jalapeño to start, sushi specials with miso soup and salad and edamame. The timing was off, we got our edamame and then didn't receive our yellowtail jalapeño, miso soup or salad until our sushi rolls, which took a while as well. We asked about the yellowtail jalapeño and were told it takes a while because it's frozen. I understand sushi grade fish has to be flash frozen to remove bacteria but this wasn't exactly making us want the dish anymore so we asked them to take it off and not bring it. The rolls were okay, miso soup, salad and edamame were okay as well. I probably wouldn't return because I assume there's better sushi places nearby.

Vegetarian options: Only two options for vegetarian ramen but delicious. Best to make sure the broth is vegetarian.

This restaurant was an average experience with service being hit-and-miss and the food being about average for an Americanized Japanese restaurant. The food all tastes good, but it was relatively plain. The servers were all pretty young and occasionally inattentive. I am surely one that likes the staff to leave me be from time-to-time, but waters were often empty and you pretty much had to flag them down when you needed anything, even though the restaurant was only 25% full on a Friday evening. I would say that the Ramen bowls were good, but the miso-based udon bowls were relatively tasteless. What surprised me the most was that they didn't have any of the normal spicy sauce additives for the Ramen bowls, which are usually sitting on the table at typical Ramen bars. When I asked, they only had Siracha sauce as an option...which wasn't preferred, but did make the Ramen tastier when stirring it in. Again, the food was average, but would likely try another one of the many establishments throughout China town next time.Vegetarian options: There were limited vegetarian options, which is relatively expected in a typical Ramen restaurant. The reason that I was eating vegetarian was it was a Friday in Lent. That said, the vegetarian options were cleared labeled as such in English, which is helpful. I will also say my vegetarian ramen was tasty, one I added in the Siracha sauce.Kid-friendliness: I would not say this place is either kid friendly, or not. It is a typical restaurant that is at least not off-putting for families with kids. I brought my daughter with me, who enjoyed herself.

Came here for a Saturday dinner, and the place was quite crowded. The inside is very cool if you are into anime/Japanese culture, as there are a ton of anime decorations.I ordered the Crazy Salmon and Snow Mountain maki rolls, the tonkotsu ramen, and the daily special, which was a roast pork don. Tbh, the sushi and ramen were just okay, but the reason I'm rating a five is solely for the roast pork don because I'm still thinking about it two years later. Unfortunately, I was only visiting Philly for the weekend, but if I ever come back, that's the first thing I'm ordering (though, I don't know if it ever made it onto the main menu or will reappear as a special). The pork was extremely tender, flavorful, and juicy. The price was also so cheap for the amount that I got.

I've had a lot of ramen, this is easily the best ramen I've ever had. The miso ramen was creamy and complex. The egg was marinated well and perfectly jammy. The pork melts in your mouth, the pork fried rice was perfect, I really can't rave enough. Craving it constantly ever since!

Ordered the spicy Tonkotsu ramen for delivery with a shrimp tempura roll. Everything tasted fresh and was delivered quickly. The broth was hearty, flavorful with a touch of spice -- as expected! Good portion size and ramen had a nice hardy texture. The roll was just ok, a bit bland imo but not terrible. Hats off to the delivery guy and workers involved as this was delivered in the midst of a snow storm.
