Every spoonful was packed with umami. You can tell they take this seriously. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

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. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. The chashu was tender and melted in my mouth. Great spot to bring friends — we will definitely be back.

This is the real deal. Authentic flavor that reminds me of bowls I had in Japan. 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. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite. Got a bit busy at peak hours, but the wait was worth it.

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.

Came in skeptical and left a believer. The broth alone is worth the trip. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.

Solid bowl of ramen — nothing crazy, but consistently good. 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. 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. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl. Got a bit busy at peak hours, but the wait was worth it.

It was okay. The broth needed a bit more depth in my opinion. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it.
