Best bowl of ramen I’ve had since I moved to this part of the bay! Service was also quick and friendly.

We got the tonkatsu ramen and chicken katsu curry. Both were very good. The flavor of the broth was really good and the strength of the broth was moderate. The pork was cooked well. The curry had just the right amount of spice and richness.

The karaage curry was delicious, but the ramen was really delicious.It's not salty, the shave is soft and it's delicious.Takoyaki is also soft.I found the ramen restaurant of my life.

Tonkotsu - this is a pretty good bowl of ramen overall. The broth was missing some extra "oomphf" of milkiness that I was hoping for. The standard serving does not include menma which I feel like is essential to a traditional tonkotsu... the chasu had more of a smokiness, grilled flavor as opposed to the sweet caramelization from the sake/ mirin marinating one may typically expect. All said, this is solid for the Bay Area in my experience but maybe not a recreation of tonkotsu ramen you would get in Japan. There was a richness to the broth and noodles were perfectly cooked!Karaage - plump, super juicy, big pieces of perfectly brined chicken. The batter has less crunch and more crisp, something captured perfectly here. Served with a bit of cabbage, a really sweet kewpie mayo, and a shishito. I loved this and gets perfectly dunked in a bowl of ramen lol.Takoyaki - Less tako, more yaki. I would say the filled contents are probably 5% tako if that. I ate these and did not get a chew of octopus at least twice... though, cooked and topped perfectly with a great flavor.Service was friendly and prompt, and left us to enjoy all aspects of the meal. These dishes and some tea were about $75 for two with tip.

Very friendly staff, helped pick our food and make choices that were cheaper than what we were about to go.Got the Ala ramen. Level 3 spicy. It was decent, the meat quality could be better. The noodles were good. It was not crazy spicy either.Overall I enjoyed the place, shopping nearby as well.

Don't normally leave reviews but this was amazing service. Ordered doordash delivery, doordash had an issue where it put the address wrong. Called the restaurant and the person on the phone was super helpful, made sure I got my food. Once I did get it the food was delicious! They even made sure doordash support called me about the order in case I didn't get it. Above and beyond service, would recommend!

We ordered delivery. Everything, down to the seaweed salad, was terrible. Chicken katsu and Karage were horrendously oily and mushy. The agedashi tofu was terrible, flavorless, and falling apart. A few bites of ramen caused one of us to vomit. We will not be ordering from here again.
