Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price.

This is the real deal. Authentic flavor that reminds me of bowls I had in Japan. The noodles had a perfect chew and held up well in the broth. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Got a bit busy at peak hours, but the wait was worth it.

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. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite.

Every spoonful was packed with umami. You can tell they take this seriously. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg.
