Came in skeptical and left a believer. The broth alone is worth the trip. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

Pretty good ramen. The broth was tasty even if not super memorable. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk. Clean spot with a welcoming vibe.

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. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

Tasty enough and fairly priced. I would come back. 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. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl.
