Great flavours from the straight forward ramen to some interesting takes on the noodle and soup dish.
Desserts, OMFG! Brilliant.
Followed by a digestive drink!

A small but cool space with a mixture of bar seating and double tables.
Six of us descended on Pickerel around 18:00
At this point there were already a few diners but we found space at the bar without problem.
I have to say that I did worry some about the small menu, but between 6 of us ( ages ranging from 54 down to 8 years) we tried pretty much everything on the menu and it was all delicious.
Amazing creative food
Ice cream desert to die for
Wonderfully welcoming staff

Next time we are in the USA we will certainly be back

The star is the green curry ramen. Mann!! Really unique and memorable flavor. Not too thick, herb forward, and no coconut milk broth but still unbelievably awesome. Al dente wavy noodle at the perfect cooking time. One of a kind!

This was the best dinner we've had in a long time. First sign it would be amazing was the small menu. The complaints in the reviews about a small menu don't get that places can perfect less items. I rather have the option for ten things that are a 10/10 than 100 things that are subpar. The food was so unique and delicious.

The service was impeccable, our waiter obviously loved his job and was so sweet. I didn't catch his name but he had a great style, short brown hair, tattoos and glasses, I hope you get ten raises.

Also the music playing was amazing which I never think when I go out. Lots of punk and some indie it was fantastic. Meshed well with the ambience. I loved the cozy intimate dining space. Everything came out quick and hot.

You all are a complete gem. We wish you endless success. Thanks for making our first night in RI awesome.

Ramen flavor was really good and flavorful but they were in a small portion, doesn't make me full, overall nice Japanese style vibe inside the restaurant and the seating is like a bar with no tables

Cozy and super friendly owners who really take care of you. I was visiting for the wknd and discovered this place waking by, very busy but Spencer texted me when there was a seat at bar, the ramen was delicious and choc chip cookie was yummy. A beautiful experience, the owners and everyone here knows what they are doing. Can’t wait to come back!

Very cool atmosphere along with super good ramen. One take away is the lack of a drink menu apart from the alcohol. The only drinks available was diet coke. Apart from the drinks will be retiring for the amazing and interesting tasting ramen!

Top Tier Dining Experience. Nestled in a cozy corner, this intimate ramen restaurant truly captures the essence of Japan's iconic alleyway eateries. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. The ramen is nothing short of spectacular—beautifully prepared, with rich, flavorful broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and tender toppings that make every bite a delight. The entire experience, from the food to the service, is top-tier. It’s a hidden gem that delivers a true taste of Japan’s with a unique culinary twist only Providence's local food scene can offer.

Really weird interior vibes and food is relatively good! I would not say spectacular. I think the dessert is 10000% the standout in the meal! We got the banana bread and ice cream and both were phenomenal.

Absolutely the best ramen experience you’ll have in New England, dare I say on the east coast in general.

Scott does it right. You can taste the exceptional care and love put into every broth and each perfectly cooked noodle.

The size of the space is a perfect Indicator of the intimate experience you’re about to indulge in. It feels like a home away from home. Excellent ambiance and super friendly and attentive staff.

If you’re crying about the wait times you’re a fool; I don’t trust an empty restaurant and neither should you!

Everything about this dining experience is truly special. A well crafted gift bestowed upon diners with love and respect for an art form seldom held to as high of a standard that Scott and his staff do.

The ice cream and cookies riiiiiiiiip!

Really good food and ambiance. Nice employees but since it’s a small location, no reservations and because it’s so good it’s difficult to get a table without a decent wait
