| - I've always been wanting to try out this place and I finally got the chance to last night!
The interior decor was very random and cutesy. All of the chairs in this restaurant were pink! I thought that it was kinda weird and unique. Never seen restaurants with pink chairs before, haha. On the walls, there were cute paintings of sumo wrestlers that looked like they were...kind of tickling each other? (That's how I saw it anyways, haha!)
Enough of the mix and match decor with the hilarious wall paintings, it's onto the food.
The food, was alright at best. It wasn't that bad and it wasn't that good, just average. I ordered the "Pork Ramen" and "Seaweed Salad" while my two friends both ordered the "Seafood Ramen".
I enjoyed my seaweed salad, it tasted just like how it should taste like. It was nothing special but I thought that the portion that they gave me was very good for only $3.99.
So our bowls of ramen came and it was time for the taste test.
My pork was actually nicely done and I enjoyed the soup. The soup wasn't too salty nor was it too bland, it was just right. The only off part about this bowl of Pork Ramen were the ramen noodles itself. The noodles were hard to chew and I felt like they didn't cook it well enough but I guess it's just a personal preference? I like my ramen noodles soft and chewy but the good kind of chewy where you can easily bite it apart without looking like an idiot.
Both of my friends enjoyed their bowl of ramen but they didn't like how it only had one of each type of seafood in it. They also hated how it only had about three to four pieces of seafood in it as well, talk about being cheap! Just kidding, haha (Okay, maybe not). This piece of information is just a heads-up for those who are interested in ordering this in the future.
The service here was terrible. I guess it's chinatown but some of the waitresses were very polite and nice while some were just rude and unfriendly. Their menu was extensive so my friends and I were having trouble on deciding what to order. Our waitress kept coming back to ask us if we were ready but we kept telling her that we still weren't ready yet. It's only been a few seconds since we've been seated, what's the rush for, lady! She comes back every 10 seconds to pester us and every time we tell her "Not yet", she sighs or gives us a very annoyed face. Talk about being rude.
Overall, this place has alright food for cheap and the interior decor is funky. Get past the crappy service and you'll be fine.
Is it worth the trip to come here to get some ramen? Not really because there are plenty of other ramen places around downtown with better tasting ramen and better service but if you're around the area to grab some grub, it won't hurt to try it out once.
