Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
A great place to eat ramen. Nothing that will blow your mind. The basics done right at a good price. Delicious Japanese food! Worth the wait. There were 4 groups in front of us and we waited approx 15-20 minutes to be seated. We really enjoyed the miso soup, katsu donburi, and salmon hand roll. Staff were all very lovely too! Soy sauce came in a cute little bottle and is gluten free. 👍👍🙏🙏👏👏
