The food is so good! Our kids loved the ramen. The kids also got free ice cream which is so appreciated! We were able to take advantage of happy hour which was awesome. Will try to come back!

Truly lives up to the 5* review. It was absolutely delicious. Large portions. Our family of 4 shared 2 yakisoba dishes ( beef & seafood) and some pocky - this was perfect. The flavor of these two dishes were slightly different but both so …

Legit! The pork is crazy good! Actually one of the better ramen restaurants in the city! Definitely top 3 and could arguably be top 15 in the USA. No thrill decor inside, just good ol Japanese bowl of ramen. Staff is extremely helpful...Read More

The ramen was really good. Much better than what I can find in Toronto. The service was very welcoming. Plus was quiet and felt great after a long day in SF. If you’re near it. Check it out!

Easy to order via the QR code. I appreciate the fact 15% tip is added and it states "don't tip anymore". I'm not calculating anything and worried of I was rude for not tipping enough or too much. The server was friendly and attentive. Worked...Read More

Food was really good and the small pistachio ice cream they offer after dinner was delicious. The ordering part was different, you have to scan a QR code and order your food from there.

Super friendly server. The ramen is amazing, one of the best I’ve had. The broth is full of flavour, the minced garlic on top made it even better. The portion size the meat were all amazing.

The food was delicious. We went from 5-7pm which is their happy hour, (discounted prices on select dishes). I got the Katsu Don with pork. It was crispy and fresh. They also gave us some pistachio ice cream at the very end. Would highly recommend.

The only complaint is that the server was too cute and sweet ❤️ The food was great. Very nice vibes. We felt cared for. Even though it's small, the formatting of the tables allowed for privacy and space from others which I appreciated

First I just have to clarify that when I rate an eating establishment, I am comparing it to similar restaurants, not _every_ restaurant ever. So when I walk into a small mom-n-pop type place like this one, I don't expect fabric napkins or a …

I was too busy eating and forgot to take a picture. The shoyu broth is really good, smells really aromatic and tastes umami. The ramen texture is prefect, not too soft not too raw, very chewy. Strongly recommend!
