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. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. The chashu was tender and melted in my mouth. Clean spot with a welcoming vibe.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. The noodles had a perfect chew and held up well in the broth. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg.

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. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

It was okay. The broth needed a bit more depth in my opinion. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

Every spoonful was packed with umami. You can tell they take this seriously. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night.

Pretty good ramen. The broth was tasty even if not super memorable. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl. Got a bit busy at peak hours, but the wait was worth it.
