This is a small place and it is best to make a reservation. I showed up and there was a table open. After I sat, the crowd really started to come, so they are quickly occupied by limited seating. The food came out quickly and was okay. For my arms I got vegetarians without spices and I had hardly any taste, so I would say go safe with a little heat. It filled light. The shrimp Shu Mai was delicious and probably my fa... View all feedback.

I went into this store 3 years ago the taste is very authentic, but now the taste has changed as smoke color and taste feels chemically. I think her property was changed too. View all feedback.

Yummy! I stumbled upon this place by chance while searching for a spot to grab some ramen. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. I opted for an extra spicy tonkotsu with a soft boiled egg. The broth was bursting with flavor, making every bite lively and enjoyable. The perfectly cooked soft boiled egg and generously sized pork pieces added to the dish's appeal. The noodles were also ?. I will definitely be returning for another visit!
Wow... I'm truly wondering about peoples perception on what is poor vs. good. My personal opinion is that area meaning state/city may have something to do with the accuracy of reviews. Parking was ample because the plaza is pretty stagnant. We were quickly not pleasantly greeted, note there is a difference especially when the location isn't busy. They took extremely long to come back to the table to take our order. I ordered rice with pork belly, wow so bad. The rice was COLD and I expected a nice piece of pork belly but instead got some thin slices that were almost transparent and dry. My wife ordered a soy based ramen and char siu bowl. We noticed that there wasn't any char siu but a piece of stewed pork belly. I called the waitress over to tell her and she told me that is char siu... NOT TRUE. I make char siu frequently and my wife is Chinese and grew up in the restaurant business. We damn well know the difference. Shame on them. Poor food, poor service, outdated look and simply an overall loss. Needless to say we won't be back ever!
This restaurant is highly overrated. We tried two different ramen dishes with varying levels of spiciness, but they both lacked flavor. The ramen here does not taste like traditional Japanese ramen and is more reminiscent of Chinese noodle dishes - oily and bland. The pork broth was watery and lacked depth in both dishes. As someone who is Asian and has lived in SEA for over 20 years, I can confidently say that the hot/spicy levels here are misleading, as even the mild and medium options were not spicy at all. For the price we paid, I would prefer to dine elsewhere for better quality ramen, even if it means spending a little more. I will not be returning to this restaurant and would not recommend it to a friend.
This is a small place and it is best to make a reservation. I showed up and there was one table left open. After I was seated the crowd really started coming, so they get busy fast due to limited seating. The food came out quickly and was okay. For my ramen I got vegetarian with no spice and I barely had any flavor so I'd suggest going with a bit of heat for sure. It was still filling yet light. The shrimp Shu Mai was yummy and probably my favorite item. The spring rolls were crispy and flavorful. Service was good waitress/hostess was everywhere doing all the jobs and everyone was being helped. Decent experience here.
