Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. A hearty, large bowl that is well worth the price. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk. Clean spot with a welcoming vibe.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. 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. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.

It was okay. The broth needed a bit more depth in my opinion. Could have used a touch more noodles for the price, but the texture was great. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

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. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots.

Not bad, but I have had better ramen elsewhere in town. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite.

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. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. 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. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl.

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.
