| - Been here twice, one of my new favorite places to eat in Plaza Midwood. First visit went with small bites. Finally a place nearby that carries okonomiyaki and takoyaki. We also had the Gyoza and Ebi Shumai. It's nice to have a different take on Japanese food than the tired, overdone and bland Hibachi grill, or the generic asian restuarant with Sushi.
On our second visit we both got ramen. I had the tonkostu, pork bone broth, which seems to be a less common offering. It was quite good (though I'd also recommend Musashi for it, that place is out of the way but so delicious). My girlfriend was quite happy with her ramen, and she is fussy about her Japanese food after having lived a couple of years in Japan. The ramen comes with all the standard toppings, and options of adding more if need, though I don't see why you would as it was already filling as it was.
My only complaint is that some of the items on the menu are light on descriptions. I can understand trying to keep it simple, but we watched an adjacent table go though probably 10 things on the menu asking for more information on what it was. They could also be a bit clearer that the extras column for Ramen is and addition by specifying what comes in the standard ramen order. You don't want a customer thinking they have to pay an extra $4 for pork (chashu? just call it pork or at least explain that means pork), when it comes with plenty to begin with.
