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

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it.

This is the real deal. Authentic flavor that reminds me of bowls I had in Japan. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Clean spot with a welcoming vibe.

Pretty good ramen. The broth was tasty even if not super memorable. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. The chashu was tender and melted in my mouth.

Every spoonful was packed with umami. You can tell they take this seriously. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. The chashu was tender and melted in my mouth.

Decent flavor overall. It hit the spot on a cold day. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. 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. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

It was okay. The broth needed a bit more depth in my opinion. 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.
