Beautiful hidden gem that I found by a lucky accident. Unagi served as kobachi was a beautiful choice, highly recommend. I also absolutely enjoyed the Choya plum wine, bit hard to find. Thank you for serving me, I loved your place
We had an awesome experience today at this restaurant. My wife and I come here often because the food and the atmosphere are always great, but today’s experience truly stood out. Due to a system issue, one of the waiters had to take our order on her phone. Unfortunately, one of our dishes was forgotten. When I asked how long it would take, the team immediately realized the mistake. They apologized sincerely, and you could genuinely feel how much they care about their reputation and customer experience. David, in particular, handled the situation exceptionally well. He offered the forgotten dish free of charge and also treated us to two beers on the house. This gesture speaks volumes not only about David, but about the entire team and the values of this restaurant. Excellent service, excellent food, and outstanding customer care. Highly recommended — 200%. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very delicious ramen! The soup stock is very well made. Noodles are made in-house. The side dishes are nice too. Found this place by chance but strongly recommend to try out their ramen.
Overall a pleasant experience. The hot Edamame tastes so good. The signature tonkotsu broth could be thicker and stronger but thats just my own opinion. Staff members are friendly.
Absolutely love the ramen here. My partner and I have been coming here for years, it's our favourite spot.
My go to place if I want miss ramen. Ramen here is so tasty very close to what we had in Japan. I love their Takoyaki, always have this paired with my Ramen.
The food came out quickly and was incredible, service was polite and Atmosphere was very chill. Would absolutely recommend!
My family was led to this ramen shop by the reviews. We ordered the Red Spicy Tonkotsu and Shoyu Tonkotsu. The broth was flavoursome but could be hotter in temperature. The handmade noodles were to die for. Nice and tender. The cha-shu was ok and we wish there were a few more seaweed sheets. The eggs were tasty. As ramen enthusiasts, we would prefer the spicy ramen to have a bit more kick to it and rather than cha-shu a bit of spicy minced pork would have been better. Overall, it was a nice meal and we would recommend others to come.
