What User likes about Stubborn Chef:
Nice local ramen shop. Pleasant staff, prompt service, fair prices. We thought the broth was tasty, not salty, with good flavour. The noodles had a good texture too. I had the homemade kimchi and it was delicious. I found it at Root Cellar and bought some to have at home; it's so good. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Stubborn Chef:
Stubborn Chef tries to mix a variety of ingredients and flavors but fails to deliver a successful dish. The food is quite flavorless and not well done. The ramen is perhaps their best dish, but still doesn't compare to other restaurants. Ultimately, they fail to foster the Japanese flavors in their cooking. View all feedback.

Great place! Enjoy coming here for the shoyu ramen. Coconut shrimp noodle soup is delicious too! Portions could be slightly bigger. Staff is really friendly.
