It is an odd place for a Japanese reataurant - in the heart of western brunch central. The ramen was not salty enough but good chewy noodle and soup base - a bit too fatty for my liking. The japanese green tea was excellent. I having been spoiled elsewhere in the world, probably won't go there for ramen but would try their other dishes. They have breakfast menu which I think is worth try especially considering the crazy line ups on nearby brunch joints.
