The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. Portion size is generous; I could barely finish the whole bowl. The nori and scallions really rounded out the bowl.

Honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I have had in a long time. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Staff were friendly and the service was quick.

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. Generous portion of noodles — I did not run out before the broth. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Toppings were fresh and generous, especially the bamboo shoots.

The flavor here is on another level — rich, balanced, and deeply savory. The noodle texture was spot on, not mushy at all. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite. Great spot to bring friends — we will definitely be back.

Every spoonful was packed with umami. You can tell they take this seriously. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

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.

It was okay. The broth needed a bit more depth in my opinion. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Bowl was a good size, just right for a satisfying lunch. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Service was fast even though it was packed.
