I must say that we were drawn to this place. First, it's dark and freezing outside. There is nothing that soothes the soul better than slurping on a hot bowl of ramen noodles. Second, the website looks terrific and finally it had good ratings on yelp.
First the positive points. This place is quite nice and cozy and the menu has a good selection of inexpensive items. We had a bowl of spicy miso ramen which had a nicely cooked egg.
However, as I was sitting by the bar, I knew the food was going to be subpar when I saw the cook put a frozen piece of katsu in the deep fryer. That katsu tasted like cardboard... Actually it was the same thickeness as a piece of cardboard now that I think about it! Throughout the night, I saw the cook handle various piece of frozen food like tempura. So I wouldn't be surprised if the noodles were packaged and the broth full of MSG. Only the okonomiyaki was ok although they were very cheap on the bonito flakes, mayo and teriyaki sauce. I thought the noodles and the broth were forgettable.
After a long walk to get to this place, we left the restaurant still a bit hungry and sorely disappointed... Never again!
