  • My feelings are a bit mixed on this review as I do want to like this place. While there was a lot of hype for this place , I can't help but feel a bit disappointed. I sat on the fence for writing a review, as they are still in their "soft opening" phase, so things will be hit and miss. When I went, we ordered the signature clam ramen, smoked ramen, karaage and tofu nuggets. We were never asked if we would like to drink anything, and we had to chase someone down to get water at the end of our meal. Yup, no one came by to get us water. We were not dying of thirst, but only got thirsty after eating. Would have been nice to have water already on hand. Honestly the sides were very underwhelming. The tofu nuggets are nothing special, except for being a bit pricer then other places. The karaage had a tad too much burnt bits, and it was more "batter with chicken" then "chicken with batter". I honestly can't recommend the sides at all. The clam broth was very aromatic, and tasty. The meat that comes with it is made "sous vide" style (that's the fancy way where they cook the meat in boiling water in a bag). It was definitely different from the usual charred bbq version most places serve. I'm sitting on the fence with whether I liked the smoke ramen. When you first taste it, it's a very nice taste. But towards the end of the meal, you start to realize it's pretty much liquid smoke flavoring that was added in to give it that smoky flavor. What I'm trying to say is that the smoke flavor tasted very artificial. Though the actual ramen noodles were probably the best I have had in Toronto. Thin, yet they were still very nice and firm, with a nice bounce to the bite (al dante). Again since it's only a soft opening, I expect that there will be a lot of bugs, and I would be happy to update this review once I have the chance to come back a few times. But for what I experienced, there is definitely room for improvement to go from good to great, but I was not wowed.
