“I honestly was reluctant to come here because it's super cute and sometimes super cute means the food isn't great but I was proven wrong. The food had a ton of flavor and even the cute character buns had plenty of filling. The teens ordered the chicken and ube bao bao buns. My husband and I got the bulgogi beef fries and both girls ordered yakisoba.Warning: they over state the wait time on their app. We were walk-ins and were told 45 minutes, the app said an hour and 15. We waited maybe 10 minutes at best.“
“I have one word to say....LEGIT!!! This place is absolutely legit. So nice to have some legit cultural food here in Carlsbad!! The walnut prawns are the absolute best I have ever had and they are my favorite so that is saying a lot. Prices were absolutely reasonable for what you get. We did not have to wait and the service was perfect!!“
“Was a very quaint and clean place. Had a traditional Japanese style atmosphere with a slightly modern touch. The food was delicious, I tried the Ichitaru ramen without the dried onion and a miso broth with extra pork belly. The noodles were good and the pork belly was melt in your mouth delicious. I also tried the tempura avocado balls which were delicious. The staff were all very friendly and the food came out lightning fast. My fiancé also got a cute Hello Kitty keychain with our meal and it was overall a 10/10 experience. I would definitely come back here if I find myself in Carlsbad again.“
“Me and 3 of my kid's ate here after the movies one day. We really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. We arrived a little before closing, I had the times mixed up. I do door dash and looked at the wrong time for that day. One of our dishes was prepared incorrectly, but I contribute that to my kid's saying they wrong thing. The staff was cool about fixing it. The food seemed fresh and we didn't feel rushed because they ultimately closed while we were eating.“
“Food was great! I love ramen and this spot is one of the best I've had! We got the Gonzo black and the tonkatsu along with some takoyaki. The Takoyaki was average, but the ramen was superb! The broth was rich and was very flavorful. The staff was really nice and the food came out quickly as well. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely stop by again!“
