Came here for restaurant week on a weekday. We came at 11 am and by 1130, there was already a huge line set up. I can't really explain the popularity of this place as I thought the food here was pretty mediocre. Perhaps it is the proximity to the capitol (I saw a lot of businessmen/women coming in for lunch).
The kale gomae was actually very good. This was the first time I had had something like this and I was pleasantly surprised. The rest of the meal did not go so well. The ramen was way too salty. The noodles were good but the broth really did away with the experience. The pork was also not the right kind of pork. Really disappointing in general since I heard such good things about this place.
I will not be coming back, especially since Ramen Kid is around.
