Oh my goodness! I was really craving some great ramen and was not disappointed in what I found! It was absolutely delicious. The depth of flavor in the broth was amazing. Nice and large portions! I had the Tonkatsu broth with pork and my partner had the udon with miso broth and tempura shrimp. Both were just terrific. The service was excellent. Ela waited on us and was so incredibly sweet to explain to us about the flavors of the broth. She’s a keeper for sure! The interior was clean and had fun decor.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

This is the absolute best ramen shop I have been to so far and it truly tastes amazing! We tried the Tonkotsu and that broth is do darn good! I recommend adding the extra noodles to turn it into another meal to take home.

Update 11/2025: multiple visits. I've had every ramen and udon dish served here and I love it. Go-to lunch spot. Third update: Had the Thai spring rolls and chicken katsu ramen. Chicken was delicious. I think they updated the menu a bit, had the option for chicken katsu udon or ramen. I don't remember that from last visit. So far each ramen dish has been different and distinct enough that it's been worth trying each one to pick a favorite Update: second time in 2 weeks! Found myself craving it. Had the tempura shrimp udon noodles this time. Udon are my among my favorite noodles and it doesn't seem like there are many places in the area you can get udon. Delicious, hot, fresh. Great if you want noodles, and great if you just want delicious hot soup too. Original review: First time visiting. Very good ramen. Fast service using the kiosk. Spicy level 2 was very manageable and tasty. Will visit again and try another ramen dish.
