| - Decent Ramen noodles, maybe a bit skimpy on their servings but reasonable prices & no line-ups!
Went on a Monday evening at around 8 pm, there was no line up and service was fairly quick. I sat at the counter, it was fun watching the chefs.
Tried the clear broth soup - toridashi shoyu - pork was tender, noodles perfectly al dente. However, the broth was extremely salty (had to drink a ton of water afterwards) and I felt they skimped a little on the amount of pork and only half an egg. The gyoza had very thin skin and were small, but at $2.50 for 5 pieces, it helped fill me up after the noodles.
I will return to try their Charcoal noodles (apparently a detoxer) because it sounds like a unique dish. My server hadn't tried it yet, so I wasn't convinced to order it on my first visit. At the end of the day, my favourite Japanese noodle shop is still Manpuku, but if you want to satisfy a ramen craving and don't feel like facing a line up (as you would at some of the other recently opened ramen shops), this is a good option.
