    Kalamari and Squid Balls

    Great experience, staff was extremely kind and helpful, and the dirty milk boba was to DIE for. Will totally be coming again, thanks for the great hospitality.

    cute in appearance, mid on substance

    A "just ok" experience. We chose this on a night we were both feeling a bit blah so some hearty warming noodles or curry were hoped to hit the spot. Food was ok, dipping ramen broth left much to be desired - beef/mushroom flavor with MSG undertone (not afraid of it, just saying not actual complexity or depth in the flavor profile), and was lukewarmish. Curry did much better, and edamame of course are hard to ruin but they were salted within an inch of their life and actually irritated the lining of my mouth because of it. Decor and ambiance is lovely - other than the blender whirring very loudly from the bar every 5 mins. Service was friendly but not particularly attentive, as the 3 employees on were consistently circled up at the edge of the bar chatting the majority of our visit. I see why this place is not setting the world on fire, though I had high hopes it could.

    Very good choice if you enjoy good ramen. Very nice inside and the prices are very reasonable.

    Me and my husband have never been to a ramen place before so this was our first time trying it and it was fantastic! The vibes and atmosphere were great, staff seemed excited to be there and eager to give us recommendations. And food was fantastic along with the boba. We will definitely be back again soon.

    The atmosphere is very quaint and they have a neat shop. The prices seem high to me, but lunch prices for some of the ramen are not too high. The server was very nice and offer e help if we needed to order. The ramen was great! I was concerned as I don't eat salty food, and the ramen wasn't too salty.

    Chicken curry and black garlic tonkatsu ramen. Delicious!
    Nichole H.

    Very nice ambiance, food was flavorful and delicious, service was outstanding, and price was great. So glad we found this little gem. It was an unexpected treat!

    I normally don't leave negative reviews, but I was so disappointed by my experience that I felt…read morecompelled to share it. I was looking forward to trying this place after hearing so many good things from my coworkers. Unfortunately, my experience did not live up to the recommendations. I visited today during Tuesday lunch service when the restaurant wasn't busy. As a first-time customer, I had a few questions about the menu, but the cashier seemed annoyed whenever I asked and even rolled her eyes on occasions. At first, I thought she might just be having a rough day, but she was very friendly and talkative with the other staff members. The service continued to be disappointing throughout my visit, and at one point it felt like the two employees were talking about me in another language, which made me uncomfortable as a customer. The cashier and other lady looked over and at one point I was just wanting to leave. After mentioning my experience to coworkers, several told me they felt the service had declined since the middle of last year. The food was much better than the service. The hibachi was flavorful, generously portioned, and a great value for the price. The sushi seemed fresh, and I'd be interested in trying more of it in the future. The only issue was the brown soup. The mushrooms were dark brown and black in color and appeared old. Biting into them was unpleasant and made me question the freshness of that part of the meal. Overall, the food was good enough that I would consider returning, but I would likely order online rather than ordering to-go in person due to the poor customer service experience. It's unfortunate because the food has a lot of potential, but the service left such a negative impression that it overshadowed the rest of the visit.

Big space but we were in the front. Seems like it was an old Mexican Restaurant. We got seated right away. They had to clean off the table. We had to ask them to wipe it down because they did not. I didn't want food to come on a dirty table. Server was nice and answered questions on the menu. We ordered. I got the creamy soup appetizer and the nom nom cold noodles with goza. Both were great and delicious. The soup was hot and had lots of goza and veggies. The noodle bowl also had lots of fresh veggies and crispy. The dressing is a vinegary mix that cuts thru the fresh veggies. It pairs perfectly. The portion is a good size. I was stuffed and could not finish. I really wanted to though. If you are vegan this is a good spot for you. Lots of choices. Prices were pretty good and you got a good amount of food. The only issue was the not clean table we had to ask to get cleaned. And they did that. Oh and the bathroom was kinda messy too. So take that as you wish. But not a bad find.

The inside of the new restaurant is much bigger, but you have to wait quite a while to be served and for your food. There are a lot of windows so the inside is a little chilly in the winter. We have tried to order takeout on occasion and each time something has gone wrong or something was missing. The pad Thai had no sauce or flavor on it whatsoever. They also don't serve as big of portions anymore and took away the large size bowls. I'm not sure what happened between the restaurant moving locations, but I hope it can get back on track. This used to be our favorite place.

Unfortunately we were completely ignored at our table. Several other two-tops got seated and the large party and they were all attended and even got their drinks before anyone greeted us or got our drink order. Eventually we moved tables to something more in the center of the dining room and still no one came to us. It wasn't until I flagged down a group of servers and food runners chit chatting by the corridor to the bathroom that someone finally came to our table. It's a shame the service sucked because the food was delicious. I loved my plum wine and spicy creamy V ramen. I added some extra veggie toppings which I think gets ridiculously pricey considering the ramen is already priced kind of high. My boyfriend had the chicken wings and white rice. He seemed to have enjoyed it. The following time I ordered delivery to avoid the spotty service we received last time. The packaging was great and it arrived early and was nice and hot. The V red fire opal ramen was DELICIOUS. And I'm absolutely obsessed with the matcha tiramisu. Delectable. I still want to try the Flying V harvest ramen. I appreciate they have several vegetarian options, considering the majority of the menu contains pork. Perhaps the next time I dine in and the service is improved they'll get that 5th star.
