I had wanted to visit IT Show after seeing some social media posts and seeing the cheese tonkatsu and the epic cheese pull. Came on a weekday evening for dinner and had made a reservation earlier that day. The restaurant is fairly small with a few tables. They were not too busy that evening. We started with the pork bao buns and of course the cheese tonkatsu. The pork buns came out first. The pork was super tender and the bun was soft and tasted sooo good! The cheese tonkatsu came after and omg the cheese pull was awesome! It was a pork cutlet with mozzarella. It was served with 2 kinds of dipping sauces. Our entrees came after, I had gotten the mentaiko cream ramen and my sister got the salmon tendon. Everything was delicious! We will definitely be back again...especially for the cheese tonkatsu!

Had a delicious dinner here. The restaurant, though the entrance is on broad, you have to walk down a hallway and turn the corner to get to it. So it was a little hard to find. Its a small restaurant but the food is really good. My favorite was the miso eggplant appetizer. The ramen was very good too.

Came in for an early lunch on a Sunday. The front entrance is small but easy to find. We were craving tendon after a recent trip to Japan. We ordered the shrimp tendon and the salmon tendon. We also wanted to try the cheese tonkatsu and baby back rib bao - the tonkatsu was so crispy and cheesy (but I found the dipping sauce a bit too salty) and the rib meat in the bao was so tender. The tendon were plentiful and fried perfectly. We did end up taking home some leftovers. The raw salmon pieces were marinated and it was nice to have a non fried aspect of the meal. My favorite pieces of tempura were shrimp and pumpkin. Instead of broccoli, I would have preferred eggplant or shishito peppers. Would love to see additional seafood tendon choices like squid, scallops or eel. We found the tendon sauce lacking some depth of flavor compared to the one in Japan, but overall we enjoyed it.

Came here for lunch during the weekday. There was only 1 other table. Business was slow because it seemed that no one knew about it. Can't even tell with the tiny door and sign outside. Tendon was great. My coworker had ramen but said it was a bit greesy and salty. I will have to try it out myself to give it a fair review... but I do recommend the tendon!

Overall the Ramen was good, I gave 4-out-5 stars because the noodle texture could be better. They might've overcooked my Ramen for extra minutes, a bit too soft. The soup base was great. Service was good, and we like the environment very much, clean and nicely arranged.

This is a place my family often visits. Ramen and tendon are very delicious, and ebi mayo is also a menu item that cannot be missed. I definitely recommend it.

It was the most delicious meal I had in New Jersey. I was in a hurry before going to the airport, but I was anxious because the food came out late. They said it was because they suddenly had a backlog of orders, and they even took care of the service. It was the best.

The restaurant is kind of hidden inside of a building in the back. The food came out quick. They only have a few tables so seating is limited. The Mala ramen is very spicy. The regular ramen is a little spicy. The Wasabi octopus was good.
