It's definitely the best tonkotsu ramen you'll get in Charlotte, I found it to be the closest to what I have had on my trips to Tokyo. Takoyaki was also good, in fact everything we had was good, though I wish the tempura was more traditional (kabocha and sweet potato this time of year would have been a bonus, instead of onion). We'll definitely be going back, it's on our short list of fave places now. Service was speedy/friendly as well!
