Had dinner with my wife and both children.
Overall: Nice food that is adequately priced. Recommend overall.
Food was good overall but not outstanding.
Service was OK but there were a couple of issues:
We were placed at a table that was missing a chair. It took nearly 10 minutes to get the missing chair.
Food comes out when ready but the timing was weird. The chicken ramen was out in less then 10 minutes, the sushi and pork ramen came out 15 minutes after the chicken ramen. This caused a big gap between the first person that received their food and the rest of the table.
Atmosphere is average to the area.
Got in for a quick lunch with a friend.
The place feels really authentic and cozy, just more suitable for small groups of people.
There good Japanese music playing in the background and feels like you've been teleported to Japan for a lunch.
The service is really good and she explained what's recommended to add/use for the Raman I ordered with a smile.
I ordered the pork Raman version and found it mainly tasty. The egg yolk suprised me, as it has the exact right proportion of soft-runny-firm and obviously properly cooked, you rarely get. The broth was rich with pork flavour and the pork itself was tasty. I do think that the portion size is a bit on the smaller side and it would make more sense to serve it in a smaller bowl. It just looks like you got a half portion, when the bowl is huge and half empty. Also, the noodles were too greasy for my taste, which is a first for me. I'm guessing it had something to do with the pork fat, but strange, that only the noodles had that taste and not the broth.
I also tried the beef tongue which was one of the specials. It was extremely soft a bit sweet and very tasty.
Got here with my friend, had to wait few min to get a seat since it was floded with people, didn't mine it! Got sits at the bar, everything was really good! The food was super, the atmosphere and music was very top notch
Absolute worst ramen I have ever had. We had it delivered and the noodles are just pure dough, and super market instant ramen is better than this. I feel sick just smelling it. 70$ for worse than no flavor. Do not order
Very disappointed experience, the food was not good at all ramen served semi cold,
service was really bed, we were two people one received the food and we had to wait ( and ask several time) very long for the second person to receive the food. Overall experience wasn’t good at all. I wouldn’t recommend
