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. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg.

Was hoping for more — the flavor fell a little flat for me. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Service was fast even though it was packed.

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Clean spot with a welcoming vibe.

Every spoonful was packed with umami. You can tell they take this seriously. 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.

Solid bowl of ramen — nothing crazy, but consistently good. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.
