"This is solid ramen, in my opinion. I've been to a few of the better places in the Bay Area back in CA (Orenchi etc.) and I feel that this place is close to them. I feel that at least some of the negative reviews are from people from Asian-heavy areas who view Asian food in Chambana through a rose-colored lens, which to me is corny af.\n\nWay better than Koto Ramen, which got pretty bad fast.\n\nI generally get Tonkatsu Black here.\n\nPositives:\n-Great meat, and tonkatsu broth has good flavor. I liked the miso the one time I had it too.\n-Noodles are solid\n-Egg is solid\n\nNegatives:\n-You're pretty much out of luck here if you're vegetarian or don't eat pork due to their broth\n-Prices are a little on the high end, especially $4 (?!) for extra ramen where it's half of that elsewhere\n-Personal thing, but their tonkatsu black needs to have more black sesame oil\n\nStill fairly solid."^^ .
