Based on the reviews, thought we'd try Monta. The place was packed during the lunch hour. We were quickly greeted and offered seats at the counter. We ordered the char siu rice bowl and shoyu ramen. The food came quickly and smelled great. Added the red ginger, sesame seeds, red pepper salt and crushed garlic. It does add a boast. The soup is tasty as were the noodles. I don't eat pork so my hubby said it was very tender but sparse. His bowl looked good with a small pile of seaweed on top of everything. We enjoyed it but prefer phò to ramen so will visit Vietnamese places.
