| - This place is just meh. These are the words that many reviewers, as well as I, have chosen to describe Yagyu Ramen.
It wasn't one particular order that left me with a bad taste in my mouth, nor was it any order at all. It also wasn't the service for the day, as I didn't necessarily see any problems with my waitress (aside from the fact that it seemed like she was hurrying me to finish my meal). It was just all average, I guess.
My order consisted of my usual go-to miso ramen w/ boiled egg and butter, an iced tea, and a free check-in edamame. My S/O ordered similarly to mine, except he changed his bowl to the Tenshin Ramen.
I guess the broth didn't quite suit to my tastes. While some may not like their ramen oversalted, I do not like my broth under salted, as the point of a miso ramen is to be higher in sodium than other broths. I had to add quite a bit of soy sauce and chili spice to get a flavor that met my match. Of course, it may just be my particular tastes that was in the minority, but my S/O told me that his broth was also quite boring.
The takoyaki wasn't as flavorful as I hoped, but the octopus inside was chewy!
While eating, I felt rushed by the waitress there. She tried taking away my bowl, thinking I was done, when I still wanted to finish the rest of the broth. She did the same thing when I wanted to look at the menu again while she thought I was ready to pay. :/
Don't think I'll be coming back.
