I really wanted to love this place. Hole-in-the-wall? Line at noon? Not even enough space to pull out a chair? Check, check, check. It should have been amazing- perhaps we just chose poorly from the menu?
We got the ramen and the chirashi. The ramen was fine, but not particularly flavorful. The chirashi was not what I was expecting. The salmon was arranged carpaccio-style around a ball of rice with salad. It was dressed in a sauce that overwhelmed the taste of the fish. For me, chirashi is about the fish, and although the sauce was good, it didn't allow the fish to shine.
I would probably come back and explore the menu, but it wasn't worth the hype.
