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. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

Honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I have had in a long time. 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.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. The chashu was tender and melted in my mouth.

Came in skeptical and left a believer. The broth alone is worth the trip. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. 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. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg.
