It's surprising that they got 4stars on Yelp!
So I was tricked there by this fake rating. In a dinner time at 5:30pm it's not busy at all, because we were the only table there. It seems to be a forgettable place in such golden location on 17 Ave.
The appetizer was fine, small amount but fresh and tasty.
The tonkotsu Ramen we ordered is not for main course since the portion is like 2 bites, with little broth inside. The meat and broth are not freshly made at all, it tasted like it sit in the fridge over a week then they reheated to serve us. The other Ramen we ordered, broth taste like plain soy sauce water... or water with few drops of soy sauce....
Server only focus on the bills and tips without decent service.
The owner is obviously over proud of his food and not friendly at all.
I say with big mount of pride, owner need to improve everything in his restaurant and learn how to talk to customers in person, in stead of sending the server to protect his pride from poor food quality and quantity!
Worse experience so far and as zero it's not worth to rate at all. I will never come back and warn those who's bigger than 100lbs, bring your own snacks to fill your stomach since you pay 20 dollars but never will be full at 5S17. A total waste of such a golden location!
