“ Stopped here for a meal while travelling. Have to say we enjoyed the amazing Japanese food. They have a wide range of offerings from sushi, ramen, bento, rice dishes, small entrees, dessert, etc. Also offers beer and sake. The ramen is very good and can tell it's authentic broth made from scratch and has no MSG. Service is pretty quick and prices are good. Servings are reasonable. Love it. ”
“ The barbecue eel we ordered is super delicious. The tonkatsu noodle is also good. Fast service and the cozy atmosphere. ”
“ A cosy Japanese restaurant. Interesting large menu where you can see the menu all on one page. Ordered the spicy Ramen and loved It. It has thick meat slices and generous with their vegetables. Their gravy is thick which some may not like. Add $7 to a main meal to enjoy 5 pcs of Gyoza. Slightly small pieces though. They have another menu for drinks, they do have a large variety of drinks. Ordered the Japanese popular Santori Premium Beer. It is light. Enjoyed my meal. ”
“ We had three different kinds of Ramen, Shio (mild salt), Shoyu (soy source) & spicy miso, all were so good. Gyoza ( Dumplings) was also good and yummy. Highly recommend to try everything! ”
“ Overall it's a good bowl of ramen. Noodles always well cooked. Light on topping for the price in my opinion, but I guess simplicity is their style. As you can see, for $3.50, maybe skip the egg. Otherwise really nice place with great service and a big menu. ”
“ I recently dined in with friends for lunch, and it was an amazing experience! I tried the Hokkaido Miso Tonkotsu Ramen, and I have to say, it’s an absolute must-try. The rich, flavorful broth and perfectly cooked noodles made for an unforgettable dish ”
“ Tonkotsu Ramen with gyoza dumpling was very tasty. Noddle soup is pretty great there. Should try. Won't regret, but sadly, Chicken katsu-dong wasn't good enough. Chicken katsu was soggy all over and rice wasn't juicy enough with sauce. Little bit disappointed. Except for that, everything was great. Staff was helpful and kind with smiles. Tidy and neat restaurant. Ramen is the best here. I'm happy to go back. Thanks ”
