"I recently visited Otsuka with hopes of a delightful ramen experience, but unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. The quality of ingredients seemed mediocre, reminiscent of a fast-food chain rather than a specialized ramen spot. The broth, a crucial element of any ramen dish, was merely so-so, lacking the depth and richness one would expect. The meat, similar to rolled ham found in supermarkets, was disappointingly salty and didn't seem freshly prepared. The overall ambiance of the place also paralleled that of typical fast-food joints, lacking the authentic charm and warmth you’d hope to find in a dedicated ramen restaurant. Considering the overall experience and the quality of the food, the pricing felt overpriced. It's a pity because, with some improvements in ingredient quality and preparation, the potential for a much better experience is certainly there. For those seeking a truly authentic and satisfying ramen experience, there might be better options to explore."

"Our first and favorite Ramen place in Tampa. Our appetizer was Takoyaki, the octopus was excellent. Honestly, I don't think they could do anything to improve it, it was perfect. We also shared an order of fried squid, they were not crispy enough, and they were full of oil. My main course was Tonkotsu with vegetable broth, delicious. The only thing that seemed peculiar to me is that the egg order is only half an egg. Apart from that, all the flavors were on point. Beware of the spicy, because it is spicy. I LOVED IT. The atmosphere is quiet, we went in an hour that they were not very busy, and the service was acceptable. This a place I recommend, when you feel like eating some good ramen noodles. We will be back."

"1st visit. Came because of the 4.6 Google rating. To my surprise it was not tasty at all. I really like Ramen but this place is not for me. Slow service didn’t make it any better. Karrage and pot stickers were borderline disgusting. My broth had a funky taste to it. The food was not good at all in my opinion. I will not return."

"Wow! Some of the most amazing Ramen around the Tampa Bay area! The food speaks for itself and the service is awesome! Definitely try the Mango sake! On the sweeter side like fresh juice, I was pleasantly surprised on how much I enjoyed that with my dish. The atmosphere is great for families or a date night out! Prices are extremely reasonable for the high quality food you receive!"
