Ramen did felt authentic and yummy, however lacks experience, the miso broth is not strong and layered. Noodles are thin and do have a chance to improve. The menu options were great. And overall it’s a must try!! Around 15-20$ per person if you are sharing. The food felt fresh.
There were plenty of amenities and the food was very flavorful. We got take out and the cutlery and supplies were great.
As someone who stayed in Japan for almost 5 years, if you want to try Ramen from Japan this is the spot. We lived in Kanagawa so great to see the city signs across the building as you eat. The taste is amazing and it makes me feel at home. Don’t miss the actual taste of Japan in the US!
The vibes are immaculate. The food was amazing! We got the classic tonkotsu, chicken karaage, and pork karaage. I loved the chicken karaage, the chicken was so juicy and the curry was delicious. Will definitely be coming back!
An absolutely delicious ramen spot! Each dish is bursting with flavor, and the portions are just right. We tried the squid karaage, which was incredibly crunchy and perfectly breaded. I highly recommend this place for a casual meal loaded with deliciousness!
We had the chicken karaage, chicken ramen and spicy miso ramen.
The chicken karaage was okay, very small pieces, not crispy or had the classic seasonings you would normally expect when having karaage.
Same with both ramens, they were okay but lacking more flavors in the broth itself. The ramens also had burnt garlic in it, not sure if that’s intentionally part of the recipe, but after a few bites it takes over the entire dish and not in a good way.
We will like to try this place out again and some of the other dishes to see if it was a one off.

Really good! Will come back! Love the atmosphere and the flavors were amazing! The pickled radish was sweet which was a surprise! If you want authentic ramen then this is the place to go!
