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. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl. Clean spot with a welcoming vibe.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Great spot to bring friends — we will definitely be back.

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. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.
