Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it.

Honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I have had in a long time. The noodles had a perfect chew and held up well in the broth. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it.

This is the real deal. Authentic flavor that reminds me of bowls I had in Japan. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.

Solid bowl of ramen — nothing crazy, but consistently good. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it.
