QUALITY and CONSISTENCY of food? BIG RED X.
Nope nope nope. I really don't understand how my mom and I could order the same side dish (tonkatsu/deep fried pork cutlet) and have both the meat and batter be two totally different colors. Hers tasted much better as the meat for mine was tough and the breaded batter was not crispy at all.
Ontop of this, my mom and dad both ordered the ramen which, again, seemed like they were two totally different dishes. Although I admire that they served a good tasting half-boiled egg atop the ramen, the moment of happiness quickly fleeted away when I tasted the soup bases. My dad's bowl was fine, though he commented it "wasn't hot enough". Meanwhile.. poor mom, her soup base tasted entirely burnt and raw (maybe that's why hers was "hot"). Revolting.
Also, note that the soba noodles are served hot - which was rather surprising to me since I've only had them served cold before. It was decent tasting though a little weird and does not come with a half-boiled egg like the ramen does. The only reviving food from this entire meal were the ice creams. Hard to mess that one up if they buy it pre-made. I liked that they offered a variety of flavors that most other restaurants don't, like ginger and black sesame.
So my review? Walked in thinking, "wow" this place seems like it'll be pretty great. Walked out thinking "yea... nah, don't want to have to gamble on whether I get the good serving or the bad one".
