We took a chance on this place. We have been looking for a ramen place since we left Japan. We spent 3 years in the middle of the heart land...and since then, not been able to find a place that comes close. This place was close, but not on target. I will say that the ramen was over priced...very good, but over priced. This place is more for the small quite bar then their soup. If you want a unique bar...then this is your place. if your here for the soup on a cold day...this is not the place. Service was great by the way.
