| - I just went here for a quick check out the new restaurant in my neighborhood. First the good: friendly staff, great service, clean dining room, great broth, tender meats. Now for the only negative: the actual Ramen/noodles were on the generic side. Their noodles are worlds better than dry, instant Ramen, but only as good as a Hawaiian Saimin from a Takeout Joint not known for Ramen or Saimin. I wish they had better, fresher Noodles, because their broth & the rest of their ingredients are actually very good. I grew up in Hawaii, eating all kinds of Ramen & Saimin & Spent 5 weeks on vacation in Tokyo, Japan..... where everything is so expensive...... Everything that is, except Ramen! I ate so much Ramen in Tokyo & life was so good! Most bowls coming in at around $5 USD. For the record, I had a Takeout bowl of Beef Stew Ramen & maybe, I should have Microwaved the Broth & Noodles to get the whole bowl, steaming HOT. Takeout is never as good as Eat In. Next time I have to try their Miso Ramen. I normally make my own, using the Refrigerated Miso Ramen packs I get from the 99 Ranch Store in Chinatown & adding extra Miso Paste..... a Takeout box of Char Siu, that I slice thin & layer on top of the soup, makes it a real meal. Yes, next time, I won't be cutting it so close to closing time & I will be dining in. Their Broth, Service & Staff, made it worth it for me to go back.
