After a 60 minute wait on a Saturday night, we were seated in front of the open kitchen. The staff were all dressed and quite entertaining. The atmosphere in the restaurant was phenomenal, with the wait staff along with kitchen staff chanting in Japanese in enthusiastic vigor. This was a sight to see.
We ordered spicy garlic ramen bowl along with shoyu ramen. With our seating, we got to watch the chefs while we sipped on smooth Sapporro.
Before long, our soup dish arrived and we dug into our meal. The ramen noodle was al dente and the broth was not too rich (to our liking). The shoulder pork piece was nicely cooked and charbroiled with a flamegun. The portion size was huge: we only managed to make a dent. For a dollar, we got our leftovers in containers to take home.
Overall, awesome food in a vibrant atmosphere with quality service.
