| - So, after all the hype, I finally decided to come here, and it did not live up to the hype.
I will say that the ambiance feels authentic and very distinctly Japanese (or while we were there it did). It was reminiscent of going to Japan, packing into small little noodle shops, and ordering from a friendly, but not overbearing waitress. Food comes fast, and portions are large. Sidenote, this would be a really weird date spot, people are packed in pretty tight, and if you're on an awkward first date (which the funny couple beside us was), people will know :P
Where they lost me was the actual food. The noodles were good, but the soup is just TOOOOOOO SALTY. I get that noodles need to have a strong soup, but flavourful =/= salty, and this meant that I couldn't drink any of the soup, nor did I particularly want all the noodles. The meat on the noodles is more than I would have expected from a ramen house, and there are also other veggies, which is a nice touch.

Would I come back? Probably not, there are so many places that do noodles in Toronto, why waste time (and calories) on the subpar?
