| - I was struggling to decide whether to give this place a 3 or a 4 star review but settled on a 4 star but keep in mind it's closer to like a 3.7. I really like the design and decor of the place. It is very inviting and comforting. The staff are very kind and attentive and joke around with you if you make jokes. I must say though, the food was not bad, it just wasn't on the same level as Ramen Sora, like not even close unfortunately. I got the house fried noodle and the Shoyu Ramen. The noodle was okay but there really wasn't anything special about it. I will say that I did like the little ginger kick that was in there. The ramen was just okay as well and I think that comes down to the broth. While the chashu was really flavorful and the noodles had a really good bite to them, the broth itself was lacking a lot of flavor and complexity, almost as if it had been watered down. Like I said before, it wasn't bad, it was just lacking something. Maybe it didn't have enough salt in it, or umami? I don't know honestly. It did have heat which was nice but that's all it was was heat, it didn't add much chili flavor to the broth. I was very pleased to see that along with melon cream soda, they also have mango cream soda which I hadn't tried yet. It was good and you should get either one and enjoy it with your meal!
I thought I was alone and was at first afraid to share my opinion with my friends but they both agreed. They each got the Miso Ramen. They said that their broth was also on the bland side. They did however say that their appetizers, the chicken egg rolls and the gyoza were pretty good.
I would come back to this place because it is really close to my house and there are a lot of other options on their menu that I would like to try but when I am really on a ramen kick and need to get my fix, this is not the place I will find it.
