They don’t have traditional handheld menus, they have QR codes at the table you’re seated at. The menu has lots of options to pick from and we loved everything we tried. We sat in front of the kitchen and were able to watch the kitchen staff hand make everything. The food tasted fresh so flavorful!“

“The ramen is decent. It won’t knock your socks off, at least if you have been lucky enough to savor ramen in some of the other great cities of the country. The broth did not have that heavy creaminess that I associate with Tonkotsu, and I was not a fan of the pretty sweet mushroom button. But it was more than serviceable and certainly satisfied the craving I had for ramen on that Saturday morning.

Similarly, the gyoza was tasty enough, but not really fried properly and the “skin” was so soft it was kind of tearing apart.“

I also liked the xiao long bao dumpling and the takoyaki. Too bad they forgot to send the Tiramisu. Anyway, it was a great first experience with their dishes so I’m looking forward to trying some more in the future. Keep it up! ??“

“I love almost everything here, and always go out of my way if I'm near one or see th we food truck! the one thing I did just have that was downright bizzar, and borderline gross was the Raspberry chicken. I'm curious if there is anyone thats gotten it more than once. I just sort of speed ate the chicken so I didn't waste the money, but couldn't handle the rice with that actual salad dressing, super sweet and tart sauce. then it also has blue cheese on it which is very strange, lol.“
