| - I came here for the first time with a group of 3 on a Tuesday evening.
The reason we actually chose to come here is because they were rated pretty highly on a few Vegetarian Ramen lists. They even have a specific vegetarian section on their menu with 4 different types of Veggie Ramen.
We arrived around 7pm and were told there was a wait of about 30-40 minutes, but to check back in 20min. We decided to take a walk and come back since it was so full inside. After about 20min we were seated right away.
We ordered :
Ramune - sweet carbonated drink with a pretty unique bottle lid. It was super sweet and reminded me of a summer cooler.
Asahi Draft Beer - This was a really light beer with a great taste, it definitely paired well with the Ramen.
Chicken Karaage Don - A little disappointing, there was actually so little meat on top of a full bowl of rice. It was definitely more hype than anything.
Spicy Red Miso Ramen - really tasty and filling
Spicy Vegetarian Red Miso Ramen - also really tasty, and a great veggie option.
The Ramen dishes tasted great! however, I actually didn't notice too much of a difference between the Spicy Vegetarian Red Miso Ramen and the Spicy Red Miso Ramen except for the Pork. I'm not the biggest fan of pork, so I might just get the vegetarian version next time.
The restaurant itself if in pretty close quarters, and it can get pretty loud. Also if you have asthma or are sensitive to smoke, you might want to be careful since the kitchen is pretty much an open concept, the smoke alarm went off a couple of times during our time there.
However, everything else about this restaurant is impressively highly efficient! The servers here are very attentive and are definitely on top of everything. It was definitely a great first Ramen Experience.
Pro Tips:
If you're having trouble deciding what to order, they have a chalkboard on the wall which lists all the Ramens in order of popularity.
The Ramen dishes are a decent size, and one person can definitely finish it on their own, but if you feel like sharing, they are so chill about it and will gladly bring you an extra bowl
