My son and I visited and really enjoyed our experience. It is very well decorated inside and out and the servers were very friendly and helpful. They even went and grabbed their new chopstick attachment and attached it to my son's chopsticks to make it easier for him to use them. We both thought the food we ordered was fantastic and it came out quickly. The spiciness of the ramen I ordered is precisely what I was hoping for. I like that they offer regular American drinks as well as Japanese sodas and beers. I will definitely come back again, however I wish they were celiac friendly so that my wife could enjoy the food as well.

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.

The place is nicely themed and the seating is open. We were greeted quickly and seated. The large table in the middle of the seating area looked inviting but we were only a party of 4 so we didn’t need it. Worthy of note should family come in town. Our waiter Chris was very attentive and helpful. Our cups never ran empty for more than a second before we had a refill which I thoroughly enjoyed. In fact, Chris should get 6/5 stars for being the best waiter I have had in a very long time. The food was flavorful, tasty, and plentiful. We each had something different and all enjoyed the food. The music was present but didn’t overwhelm our conversation. I appreciated the quieter atmosphere vs some restaurants in town which seem to think I came to listen to their Spotify playlists. I would highly recommend this place for an evening out.
