This place is a haven for night owls like me. Sat-in at 11:30 PM and looking something hot to eat. Thought I would just be having a bowl of ramen but who was I kidding. The menu brings out the adventurous side of me. Also ordered chicken karaage and meat skewers.
Black garlic ramen ($11.99) - as I reviewed before, this ramen is oily. Not like a full layer of oil sits on top, but the black garlic atop the 2 pieces of chashu pork is has oil. Soup base itself is milky and lighter, full of flavor. Noodles cooked soft and palatable. 4.5/5
Kurobuta pork belly skewer ($4.99) - I would order 10 of these. So delicious. Sauce was amazing too. Only thing not delicious about it was the price - skewer is small, felt like each small bite was $1.50. Ouch. 3.5/5 for unfair portion.
Chicken skin skewer ($1.99) - love this izakaya because they use ALL parts. Learned the hard way what part "gizzard" was from ordering gizzard skewer here. Chicken skin was amazing. Cooked right with awesome flavor. Would have paired perfect with beer. 5/5
Kara-age ($6.99) - as soon as I sit down I put the order in for kara-age because it takes forever to cook. I ordered and finished my ramen and skewers long before the kara-age came. Something about it this visit was less juicy, slightly overcooked than usual. Theirs is still my favorite kara-age though! Maybe only tied with Kinka Izakaya. 4/5
Always very delighted by the prompt and informative service and the cool atmosphere. Recommend to everyone!
