"3"^^ . "I really wanted to love this place. Maybe I have high expectations. The idea is great but they just didn't deliver for me personally. I came here because of a tonkotsu ramen craving. \n\nSo I am a bit shy and one of my pet peeves is being the only one eating in a restaurant. The windows are covered with signs so you could not see if there were more people inside. Luckily I built up the courage and walked in. There were a few tables of people in there.\n\nI was greeted right away and was giving a vase of cucumber water and a glass of ice. I ordered the tonkotsu right away with straight noodles. You can choose several combinations like thick noodles or curly noodles and different broths. I also ordered an almond milk tea, but they ran out so the server suggested lavender. It was good, but the boba pearls were not my favorite. I imagine a good boba pearl to be sticky, chewy, soft, and sweet. I felt like boba was a little undercooked. \n\nAs far as the ramen goes, it was a bit on the salty side but it wasn't unbearable. It was just okay for me. I was surprised there was a lot of meat. What I was also surprised about was the table next to me had a vegetarian in their party and the waitress said there were no vegetarian options! They don't even have a vegetarian broth? I was a bit disappointed for the woman. Her friends ate ramen and she ordered a cheesecake. \n\nIn the end I was debating between 3 or 4 stars. I thought it was okay and I wouldn't mind coming back."^^ . . . "3"^^ . "2013-11-13T00:00:00"^^ . "3"^^ . . "4"^^ .
