Note: this review is not about the cheese ribs. I bet the ribs are really good and maybe I should've got them, but this review is based on their lunch special I had
I went there around 12 on a Monday for a bowl of gyudon. Having been to a lot of Japanese restaurants, I expected gyudon to be a rice bowl topped with soft beef, onions, and pickled ginger. Instead, I got 5 slices of beef shank that were very hard to chew--they tasted practically like beef jerky. The beef to rice ratio was very poor: very little beef and a whole bowl of rice.
The miso soup was the saltiest thing I've ever had. I've had Japanese miso soup and I've had Korean miso soup (black bean soup), but what I had here was legitimately the saltiest thing I've ever had. I couldn't drink it after two spoons.
Maybe I should've come for the ribs, but I expected this place to have lunch specials too. Maybe I'll be back for the ribs with friends, but never again for the lunch special.
