Not bad ramen place in Tempe!
We came here on a whim and the place was absolutely packed! It looks like a small "mom & pop" shop that is totally brought to life with all the people that fill up the place!
The menu is pretty easy to follow. Most people stick with the regular Tonkotsu ramen and add things to it if they want to make it more special. Do the $1 extra for the rich broth, you can definitely tell the difference.
We also shared some squid ball appetizers before getting our ramen. They taste alright. Kinda reminds me of eating a stuffing ball with a little bit of mayo and hoisin sauce on it. I wouldn't get it again if I came back.
The broth of the ramen, even when I got rich one was still so-so. I've actually tasted better broths compared to having pho or beef noodle soup, or Tom yum goong. The noodles were fresh, but it wasn't I was expecting. Maybe it's because I'm just used to eating ramen out of a packet, but the texture reminded me more of spaghetti. The boiled egg in there was awesome though! The fried chicken add on that I got was not good and not worth $3. I also got the roe because it was recommended on the menu, I didn't really taste it to be honest.
I feel bad for leaving a so-so review, but it's my honest opinion. Maybe I just don't like going out to eat ramen, and I always thought of it as a cheap food that you make special cause you make it your own at home.
