Outstanding food and service. I was ambivalent to come here based on reviews. I am happy to say my experience was very positive. Portions were generous and the ramen noodles were perfectly cooked! We got the triple tomato ramen (1 spicy/1 reg) Agedashi tofu Corn ribs Vegan Bao Buns The price was as expected for two heaping bowls of ramen and (3) appetizers. Our waitress was busy but checked in a couple times which was enough for us. I can’t wait to return and try other dishes on the menu.

I came here with my parents for a early dinner and they did not disappoint. The triple tomato ramen is mouthwateringly delicious, and is my go to. My parents enjoyed the corn baby back ribs, agedashi tofu, and plant based chicken karaage. This place had some of the best vegan food I’ve ever tasted. I personally love the ramen, but every appetizer I’ve ordered was phenomenal. The garlic edamame is also to die for.

Want tasty plant-based Japanese ramen? Here ya go. If you want egg or meat, you can order from next door. The Classic Ramen with the Add In spice had a huge portion, fun presentation with the wooden cover to keep from spilling, and was delicious. My bowl temperature could have been hotter. It's a very busy place. It was hard to hear the person directly across from me. I wish restaurants consider the acoustics especially for folks with hearing issues. Parking was a zoo, fortunately people are coming and going. The parking spaces are tight so come early. Parking: Small tight parking lot. Hope you have a small car. Come early. Kid-friendliness: There were a couple of kids here, but it's not really set up for kids. It's loud, has a bar vibe with nothing for kids to do, and most of the seating is for couples and is tight and small. I don't see much extra room for a stroller. So, I would say it's not really kid friendly.

This place is always a solid choice for vegetarian/vegan options. They pack so much flavor and textures into the food. I highly recommend the Jumbo Crispy Vegan Gyoza, Agedashi Tofu, Brussels Sprouts Skillet and the Queen Dragon roll. We also loved the chefs special vegan nigiri, which is always changing. They also make a yummy vegan matcha ice cream. Please note, they have beautiful presentations of their food in person. My photo is from a takeout order I had at home. I also included previous pictures in person for reference. Give them a try, you won’t regret it!

Anything that is “charred” tasted like butane, definitely not my favorite. The mushroom bao buns and the ramen was good, but the tofu in the ramen was charred with the butane torch.

Terrible customer service! Food would be even better if you didn’t have to wait 30+ mins to an hour for the food. They take more time to make your food then to sit you down. And then the servers are super rude! Never coming back
