This is my go to ramen spot. When I find a good thing it'sHard for me to stray. The kimchi fried chicken is my favorite dish. But lately I find myself craving their edamame hummus. The vibe is super chill. At night the nights are dim. It's best to make a reservation for the weekend. Even if it's earlier in the day. The servers are all chill as well. Oh! They play rap and hip hop from the 90's and early 2000s. Love it here

Such sweet service and amazing music give this restaurant an atmosphere that beckons guests to return. The tofu buns are out of this world, and others raved over the pork buns! The vegetarian ramen has a slight "bite" to it (careful not to accidentally get it on sensitive areas like eyes), but it's phenomenal!! Everyone at the table loved the Thai Tea crème brûlée, but we fought over the Ube cheesecake. We will definitely return!! --The sumo bowl is MASSIVE--My teenage daughter has a corn allergy. She ordered her ramen specifically without corn, but it arrived with corn. No issue; mistakes do happen. The order was sent to the kitchen where someone merely scooped the corn out of the ramen. I handed her the bowl when it returned to the table, but she again saw the remaining corn. The third time, the ramen arrived without corn. This whole interaction took around 20-25 minutes. It was long enough that our ramen had cooled substantially before her food arrived. I hope this is an isolated incident.

Good food and good vibes! Spring went back into hiding so I wanted something warm for dinner and ramen was perfect. I grabbed dinner with a few colleagues so we grabbed a nice variety of apps drinks. The karrage chicken nuggets with the lime kosho aioli was easily the favorite. They the right size, with great flavor and a good crisp. The chicken and vegetable gyoza were also great. We also enjoyed the pork belly and fried chicken buns. The crab rangoon had a nice little kick but they were just okay to me. I had the limited edition spicy lemongrass tom kha. It was pretty good packed some great flavor. The spicy didn't really kick until later. The fried tofu had a nice balance which tends to be a hit or mess. I would definitely recommend this dish and add a molten egg and some chili sauce if you want to really spice it up. For drinks I had the ume' old fashioned and the Japanese juzu highball. I think the highball is a nice choice for warmer weather. It's a bit light and refreshing and you don't really taste the whisky. The old fashioned was just okay to me. The service was great. It was my first time there and the waiter did a great job breaking things down and giving recommendations as we ordered.

We came here on a Sunday night and sat at the bar. We got Tonkatsu and veggie ramen. Both were good and delicious. Service was also quick

Very good experience at this restaurant, just like the one we had 2 years ago. The chicken in the Chicken Shio was cooked to perfection. Didn't know they were a chain across the city. Really enjoy this location, but if there is one closer, I will give the nearest one consideration.

Overall I enjoyed the experience and he tonkotsu ramen Went with a coworker as we needed a quick lunch. It was conveniently located around the corner. It was not very busy at 1 pm which was nice but we also wondered why. The place is nice and has a nice chill vibe which is rare in this area but it's what we needed. The ramen was good. A little more garnish variety would have been nice. The pork belly was tender and tasty along with the broth. Service was great. Would come back again and try different items.

This review focuses on everything besides the ramen.A friend and I decided to visit to indulge in the restaurant's specialties, buns, wings, and dumplings. The selection was impressive and lived up to our high expectations.We both opted for drinks, and I highly recommend the yuzu margarita (Corazon Blanco, Espolon Reposado, cilantro) and the spicy kimchi sake. As for food, we ordered the karaage chicken nuggets, edamame hummus, sticky Thai wings, xoxo shrimp/pork wontons, and crispy tofu buns. Among these, the crispy tofu buns stood out the most, along with the unexpectedly delightful edamame hummus.The ambiance is ideal for a date night or a casual gathering with friends, with its dimly lit and moody atmosphere.The only drawback was a 15-minute wait beyond our reservation time due to a lack of available tables. While not a major issue, it's worth mentioning.

Eh...was excited to try a different ramen place in the city and it was fine. Nothing special although they did have a happy hour and offered some different items for those who may not be interested in ramen. The chicken nuggets on HH were hot and crispy with good flavor. Bathroom was clean and service was kind. Ramen though just not quite memorable. I wanted more depth of flavor with the 10 hr Tonkansu but oh well was still good and easy to get a seat.
