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.

Excerpts

I've been to this restaurant 4 times, and I always leave feeling well-fed with without a painful dent in my wallet. This time, the ramen I chose (Tokyo) was less flavorful than I recall enjoying in the past (which is why it only scored 4/5 ✨ from me this time). Our server was great and appropriately attentive to allergies in our party, and also warmed us about a longer wait time than normal. One thing that was an unnecessary wait (in my humble opinion) was for the green tea and hot water we ordered. Other interactions with staff were likewise positive and friendly. This would make a great option for a date or a group of friends. We went on a busy Saturday and had a wait time of about an hour, which was fine (the party was hanging out at PINS). Do note that the whole party needs to be present before being seated. 😉 🍲 We mostly ordered ramen, shared sushi (the spicy California roll was really good) and the appetizer duck fat fried chicken (so good!) and edamame. 🍣 🍥

Wow wow wow! This food was incredible. There were only two of us so we only ordered a couple of things, but there were a lot more on the menu that we wanted to order. The vegetarian options were wonderful. I got the red curry and it was just spicy enough :-) and my wife got the vegetarian stirfry with the rice cakes. This was wonderful as well and a little bit on the sweet side.

Enjoyed lunch at the Slurping Turtle while staying at a hotel near by. The restaurant wasn’t super busy because it was a snowy day. Staff was VERY attentive and quick. All dishes were correct and delicious. My curry was a bit spicy, but still really good. Would come back here again, no question.
