Delicious bites and a pet friendly patio: My family and I popped in for a quick lunch. We had ramen, kimbap, fried rice, and mini dumplings. The food was wonderful and our waitress Ash was stellar. We will return should we find ourselves in the area again. Our pup was offered a bowl of water as we dined on the patio. This place is a must visit.

My new go to. Yes, it was great from the service, thanks Cameron and fellow employees, did a great job in explaining the reason for the wait. They did an incredible job in working to make it a pleasant situation in a overwhelming busy moment. Also, the employees in the back of the kitchen did great preparing really delicious and fun wonderful experience. The way we were served and attended to did not feel like any wait at all. Maybe me and those in my party where all in a good mood or something but it was the best wait we ever had.

I was not impressed with the Korean boa buns. The glass noodle dish was good.

The amount of options for food is fantastic. The Phozilla is top tier. Service is great. Drinks are unique and well done.

The food is actually worth the price. Brisket fried rice tastes perfect and the bao buns are satisfyingly soft and pillowy. The waitress was polite and pleasant. Will probably come back once I'm in downtown again.

Me and my friends love coming here! Whether we sit at a table or the bar we always get authentic and awesome service. While my roommate is stuck in the hibachi burrito (I'll admit it's delish), I try something new each time I come in. Bao buns, scallion pancake, ramen, glass noodles, fried chicken, even a few of the Italian fusion dishes. Everything seems to get better than the last. I'm never afraid to try something new bc they have seasonal specials and every dish I've ever gotten has hit the spot. Also great drink specials even on the weekend. We hate driving downtown- but this spot is worth it EVERY TIME! (Plus they always have parking nearby!)

Erica was a great server. I probably would’ve left after my appetizer came out, but she was so great I couldn’t. Korean fried chicken and fries did not taste fresh. It’s a very small portion for the $. The kitchen is somewhat open. I could see the cooks eating while they were preparing food. No beard nets or hats. Facial hair was in my entree. Website makes the food look delicious, but was let down. Hibachi burrito was pretty good, but barely any meat inside. Tried to reach out on their website before I put my review on Google, but no response. I still tipped Erica 20%. It’s not her fault I was disappointed.

Ordered food to go waited for 50 mins and they forgot an entire brisket sandwich and when we called to ask for a refund no answer. We called twice. Very bad experience overall.

I love my ramen super spicy and this place had the spiciest and tastiest I’ve had in Chattanooga. It was absolutely delicious. Best ramen in Chattanooga hands down. The server was Karmen and she was wonderful. Very sweet and helpful. We were going to leave because they were going to close in about 50 minutes and she convinced us to stay and try it for the first time. So I’m glad she did that! She checked on us several times and got me some more spicy sauce for my ramen. It was great!
We also had the fried chicken and it was amazing. Atmosphere is really pretty as well. Will definitely be back.
