My daughters and I ate here on a whim. It was amazing. Really great service, really great food. We will definitely come back. It was a little expensive but worth it as the food is made fresh and too order. It is a really tiny space though, so I imagine during peak times it gets packed. It has both indoor and outdoor seating. We had a tonkatsu ramen, rainbow roll, and two different bao buns with some extra sides. It was seriously good food.

I am a ramen snob and have tried ramen noodle houses all over the USA. This is the best place hands down. They even had soft shell crab tempura - with was fresh and delicious!

I highly recommend the Tonkotsu Ramen and the crunchy spider roll. You can taste all of the flavors in the food. They have reasonable prices. The staff is wonderful and makes wonderful recommendations on what to get.

The food here tastes AMAZING. I was actually planning to go somewhere else for lunch but saw this place and made a last minute decision to go here instead. I am glad I did!! I had the Spicy Like Beef Ramen , Chicken Karaage, Takoyki, and Pork Katsu Bowl. Everything was packed full of flavor, and each dish was unique in it's own way. The portion size was perfect. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was very neat. I will definitely be back

I got the chicken curry ramen but I subbed the chicken for tofu. It was served piping hot and tasted delicious. I’ll definitely be returning!

Dude this place is the best! I eat here as often as I can - authentic, delicious food at a super fair price. Great wine selection, service is 10/10. Everything is delicious. Homemade. Savory. And so so fresh. One of the places you eat at and think - “I hope these people are making a decent profit” because I would pay double. And if you feel the same when you dine here - you should! #tipthepeoplethatstandoutDietary restrictions: Order the ramen with rice no noodles to be gluten free!Kid-friendliness: They have plain ramen! Perfect for kids! My girls also love the edamame and homemade red bean ice cream

First timer. 1) Very clean restaurant, 2) sweet friendly staff 3) RAMEN SO GOODIf you’re a ramen fan, and you haven’t been - hurry. If you haven’t tried ramen, good place to start. They also offer sushi, bao buns, a variety of apps and desserts (like green tea cheesecake!).

Service was quick, attentive and knowledgeable. I loved the variety the menu. I ordered a few pieces of nigiri - the fish was fresh and beautifully prepared. It’s so hard to find good nigiri and this place nailed it. I also ordered the beef bowl. Its was delish and the beef wasn’t over salted, which seems to happen most bulgogi bowls. The bar area is really cute - I’d sit there and have drinks for sure. I’ll be back!
