Reviews
"I was pleasantly surprised by this place! I swung by for a quick lunch while the fam was golfing. The lady who took my order didn't speak English well and brought me ramen noodles instead of udon noodles with my spicy shrimp, but I didn't mind! The flavorful broth, packed with cabbage and broccoli, came out steaming hot in less than five minutes. I tried my best but couldn't finish it all. The place itself is very small with a handful of tables and a narrow bar for singles to eat. At 2pm, there were at least six other people there eating. They seem to do a lot of pickup orders, too."
"Very nice and friendly waitress. Plus, they stay open until 9 pm. And the food is delicious."
"I’ve spent a lot of time in Japanese Ramen restaurants, this looks just like one but the flavors are clearly more Chinese than Japanese, which might be just what you want! The menu is extensive! We ordered two different Ramen dishes, our waitress was super sweet and our food came up in under two minutes, I’ve never had food come up so fast so if you’re in a hurry, this is perfect! The noodles definitely weren’t Japanese, not bad, but not what I would buy. The broth was tasty, the eggs definitely Chinese style, hard and with a hint of 1000-year egg flavor. The char-siu was really good, not Japanese style, not pork belly but pork shoulder with a bit of star-anise, clearly Chinese origins - no complaints, the char siu was really good, my favorite part of the meal! So in short, it’s a Japanese style restaurant presented with Chinese interpretation, maybe just what you’re looking for! Personally, I could’ve used more and better quality toppings with less and better noodles. No complaints, just not what we were looking for."
"Simple and delicious place to get Ramen and rice dishes! Tastes quite homey and the owner is friendly. Having grown up in Asia, this is my place to fix homesickness."
