Update 2/26/26: I finally got my Yaki Udon. As it was now added to the menu instead of being on a blackboard in the window. Good service, was served by the cashier and there was only one other customer. The dish was... Miserable. Basically a low broth Udon noodle soup on a plate and not a fried noodle entree like it should be. None of the vegetables seemed pickled, so what was that sour off-taste coming from? Original Review: I tried really hard to like this place. Three times (visits) in fact. Day 1 and 2 i had the same hostess/server. Blonde (platinum?) hair? She was doing her best on the first night which was very busy. Second day was much less so and i got quicker service. She was friendly which in this town seems to be a hit and miss. Third day i was served by a hostess with black hair. Ice cold demeanor. The most thinly veiled "friendliness" switched on only the moment she looks at/addresses you directly. I already knew they were out of some of their dishes (much to my dismay) but to also not know what was on the menu? I mentioned the Yaki Udon on the blackboard titled "New Entrees" and she looked at me with dead eyes and said, "i have no idea what you're talking about". At which point i walked out. Day 1 i had the ramen. Pork belly in place of Chashu is interesting, certainly an easier substitute but i think they would benefit doing Chashu instead. Noodles were a decent texture. I just wish the broth was way hotter temp than it was. Day 2 i had the Crispy Baby Octopus and got to try their fried rice (as a side). Both were really decent for Fallon. But i felt i needed to go one more time before making a final decision/review and well... Day 3 totally bombed. Shockingly bad service and was there even any food left to serve?

Food was exceptional and did not disappoint exceptional always wanting a little more. Audrey was very nice and sweet from taking my order to questions about the local vibe and things to do around the area. Will definitely eat here more before leaving town and upon further visits.

They served me with plastic plates and bowls, and paper cups. I had to assemble my own soup. They didn't ask me if it was to go and I didn't give any indication that it was. The family who came on directly after me also chose their own seats but they were brought menus and DISHES. Real ceramic dishes, not the to go boxes I received. I had to sit there at the table and unpack my food from bags and plastic while I watched them get their food on plates. I had to go up to the counter for a cup of water, in a paper cup. The other family received their drinks in actual cups. They received their appetizers before their meal like normal resturant style. I wanted to enjoy my meal and instead im left feeling stupid and insulted, eating my food put of plastic and having to put my food together while I watch another family blatantly treated better. I will not come back. I wish I hadn't tipped before this inexcusable and disrespectful service.
