Went here on my bday last week Wednesday with friends, got the shoyu ramen and it was a solid 7/10 for me! Broth was seasoned so well, the pork belly was soft and tender. The little white swirly fish cake things were also really good. Loved it over all, below is the rating of everything i ordered with a short description -Takoyaki: 8/10 super good, the little Benito flakes always great, sauce on point and not too much of it that it drowns out the flavor of the fried octopus ball. -California roll: 9/10 went at happy hour so it was $5. This tastes so good, it’s basic but always a home run imo. At sprouts supermarket the sushi section has this too but the sprouts is a 5/10 for me. -shoyu ramen: 7/10. Broth was stellar and seasoned great!! I wish I added in some mushrooms and corn but I wanted to try it as is. A little bit of spice to it would have also boosted its rating. The bamboo shoots tasted a bit funny, almost sour or it had gone bad I’m not sure how else to describe it. But def would swap out the bamboo for something else if you can. The soy based broth was interesting but when I was getting to the bottom of the bowl that soy sauce taste got hella strong -green tea ice cream with chocolate syrup 6/10: I got this for free because it was my bday. It was a very interesting flavor, green tea had a light airy taste and the chocolate syrup overpowered it a bit. Not the sweetest ice cream but makes you feel healthier since it’s green tea flavored

the food is good but I think I don't want to go back there because of the noise. I understand they serve drinks and sorts like that but It'll be great if they could separate the the bar/drinking and dinning area. Sometimes it adds to the experience on how you enjoyed the food and the time spent enjoying it.

Great place to eat with friends and hang out. Food were priced reasonable - I would say you’ll spend over 30 with an entree and drink. Which is pretty normal. Servers were attentive and they have outdoor seating with shade. Karaage appetizer is a must. It’s full of meat and not just dough. Highly recommend.

The ambiance was spectacularly Asian themed. Really cute and clean. Exceptional service with delicious food made to your order request and my man wants me to be sure I mention how reasonably priced it is: "the bill was like $50 and I got two hot sakes two drinks and two ramen bowls with a tea" I'm glad he enjoyed his drinks and food as much as I did!

I got recommended by an Uber driver to this place. Its totally random so I really curious and decided to pay it a visit. Best We were directed to the table fast because its weekday and they are not that crowded The food is absolutely good, a little pricey but you got what you paid for I love the ramen, just right cooked The rolls are good also Bad The place is loud and noisy by the customers so every time I tried to call for the server, its really hard - and they always busy with something With the store like this, I think they can always invest in the table bell for better serving I tried to called servers to check out but got ignored once or twice because they did not notice me Will come back casually with my friend but definitely not in the weekends

Happy hour was excellent- cold and hot dishes available l. We also sat at the sushi counter so we were able to try the sashimi and sushi roll bar specials. The Japanese Old Fashioned and the passion fruit mojito were also yummy. My husband like the samurai rib and I liked the takoyaki the most. Overall, we loved our own made omakase experience. Will return

This is sort of a go-to for nearby offices with good prices lunch options. Why pay for the same boring burger when you can get some tasty ramen? Staff service is nice. Recommended for value!

The food was very good but the service wasn't the best. Our server was kind but we had to flag him down because he didn't come to the table for over 25 minutes to take our entree orders. The happy hour deals were good with great cocktails. (Happy Hour is from 3pm to 7pm daily!!!) Additionally, the sushi and the ramen is very tasty. I got the gyoza and the crunchy salmon roll and they are my absolute favorite every time!
