The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. The noodles had a perfect chew and held up well in the broth. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl.

Came in skeptical and left a believer. The broth alone is worth the trip. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it.

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. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

Honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I have had in a long time. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Got a bit busy at peak hours, but the wait was worth it.
