It was okay. The broth needed a bit more depth in my opinion. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

This is the real deal. Authentic flavor that reminds me of bowls I had in Japan. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl.

Not bad, but I have had better ramen elsewhere in town. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots.

Honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I have had in a long time. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Great spot to bring friends — we will definitely be back.

Not bad, but I have had better ramen elsewhere in town. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots. Service was fast even though it was packed.
