Unreal! I was getting my nails done at the salon across the street when I saw this place. I typically watch ALL of the cooking shows and Ive seen people eating it and it looks so good. Since I was late I had to take a #1 to go (pork bone broth) and it was nothing short of fabulous!!! The next day I finished it up and it was SPECTACULAR from having sat 1 night!! Pricey yes $10.oo for a (large) bowl of soup but absolutely worth having again and again.... I guess I should mention that I am not a "soup" person. I goes years without eating soup, and only went here because of what I have seen on the cooking shows. WOW!! Absolutely worth the visit!! The broth was incredible!! Absolutely incredible!! I use to love Campbells Cream of Mushroom soup, but can no longer eat it because it has dairy in it, and I am lactose intolerant. But it reminded me of that! With chunks of mushrooms!! WOW! I read one review saying it was salty, yes but absolutely the right dose of salt!!! (Besides it was PORK!)

The karaage, or "signature fried chicken", was pretty bland and tasted like unbreaded scraps thrown in a deep fryer served with mayonnaise on the side. Service was pretty slow but I was excited to try the ramen. After a short while I was left with way more broth than I was expecting, and the ratio of ingredients like I had more bean sprouts and bamboo than frozen noodles and pork.

Its a wonderful little restaurant that we recently discovered. The food is really good and my kids have the menu memorized with exactly what they want (R4 and R2 - youll know once you see the menu). We usually get it to go and it works out best for us. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

A small quiet nice ambience. 5 choices of. Ramen choose from. Not oily not salty. Great to eat during cold winter months. One or two things i must add is desserts. Green tea soft ice cream, red bean ice cream. or mochi to name a few. Desserts is needed afterwards to counteract the taste from ramen.

Very slow service. We waited at least fifteen minutes for the chashu buns, which were excellent when they came. The ramen took even longer to come and was alright, not super impressed. Okay place if you have a ramen craving but theres certainly better elsewhere.

Im a ramen fanatic and this place fulfills my cravings. The pork broth has a medium body to it. Its not too salty. But ladies keep your pants on because they also have other items like curry and pork buns (which are pretty yummy as well). Go! YOLO!

I got the vegetable ramen (which is vegan) and it was absolutely delicious. The flavor of the broth was so incredibly good and all the vegetables and noodles were cooked perfectly. It was overall one of the best meals Ive had recently.

I wouldve given it 5 stars but they screwed up my take out order and gave me an R1 instead of the R2, very tasty nonetheless. Will definitely be back to taste the rest of the menu as well as the R2 that I was looking forward to!

Ive been here twice and both times the broth was too salty and lukewarm instead of piping hot like ramen should be. The veggie ramen had a couple pieces of shredded cabbage and two pieces of avocado.

I would describe this as a Chinese restaurant that serves average (Chinese-flavored) ramen. The unagi was slimy and fishy tasting. I would not be back.

Very good ramen at a reasonable price. The pork buns are great too. Its cash only though which is really inconvenient sometimes
