Another new go to restaurant for us! We love their ramen, nice rich broth (plus if you want a spicy…read moreone, they have a habanero tonkotsu!!) noodles were perfectly cooked not too soft or hard. There's a QR code menu and pay so it's very easy to place your order. Our food came out very quickly too! It's a cute small restaurant so it's definitely a more cozy vibe to it. Looks like there's a onigiri champ in the mornings too, will have to stop by for that one day!

Not bad! Feel like I'm pretty picky with my ramen but Ramen Champ is decent if you're looking for a…read morequick bite. Pretty busy on a Friday night, waited 30 min around 6:30. Caught off guard by having to pay before getting our food through the QR code but it was fine. Their chashu is super thick which made it less tender. I knew this going in from looking at the photos but still wanted to give it a try. Noodles were al dente which was great, broth was ok. Also, they had spicy chili sauce and maybe soy sauce (?) on the table for your meal but they didn't have the spicy chili powder that you'd normally get at a ramen spot. Overall, if I was craving ramen and didn't want to drive more than 5 min, would come back but otherwise, if it wasn't so close, probably wouldn't.

Have been a loyal customer for about 5 years and lately they've been messing up. Today, finally…read morelost a customer. I live 2 min drive away. I was there when they packed the order so time delay between preparing and eating the food was not the issue. Ordered carpaccio and 2 rolls. Everything was warm. Sushi is not supposed to be warm. Avocado they used was black, old. Left them 18% tip on to go order but had I seen what they packed they would have received $0. Won't be returning. If you order take out, check your order so they don't give you garbage.

This is my forever favorite Japanese sushi restaurant. I am been here since open till now, once or…read moretwice a week. The quality and atmosphere are always the same as 1st time experience. I had a tour to Japan last March, I traveled from Osaka to Tokyo. I was impressed that the traditional sushi section here in this restaurant compared to Japan is not different. Far from the original, they have their own special rolls which are satisfied other style of appetite. I've been telling that the Japanese never put sauce or anything other than fish in their maki. However, the non-Japanese create sauce and ingredients to make maki more favor. As more as you know about the history of Japanese sushi, the more you respect the head chef here. I am been trying a lot of Japanese sushi restaurant and find myself this place. I strongly recommended Poki salad, Toro on the rock, Sashimi Sampler and salmon belly fusion nigiri. Don't judge what people say, experience it yourself.

Fresh sushi and friendly staff. Highly recommend this place!…read more Wow! The sushi platter looks amazing and so fresh!

When I say hole in the wall, I mean hole in the wall. Literally circled the entire lot of the plaza…read morelike a lost puppy before I realized I had driven right past it. It is a tiny restaurant nestled in between CVS and another business, I forget what. But there is a tree blocking their signage and the additional small stand-up sign barely draws enough attention to the location. Restaurant is small, but the service is prompt and friendly. You order through a QR code on the table and all mobile devices ordering from the same table will have their orders consolidated. Beef Udon stir fry is tasty, but as many have said, on the sweeter side. Loooooove the texture and chew of the udon noodles. Very springy, almost like korean rice cakes or gnocchi. Sake chirashi bowl was delicious too. Would be nice if the wasabi was on the side. My daughter loves sashimi but can't handle when the wasabi touches the fish. Too spicy for her. Freshness of the fish is good. It's not the luxury cut of salmon, but the quality is still very worthwhile. Can't go wrong with Cali Roll, sweet potato fries, and spring rolls (fried egg rolls). Kids gobbled them right up. My bestie also ordered a sizzling plate which she finished just as quickly. Definitely RECOMMEND this spot for small get togethers, party of 5 or less. They may not have much in sushi variety, but what they dish up, they serve with pride with modest prices. Cheers to the sweet woman who gave our kids lollipops after their meal. Very family friendly.

The location is somewhat buried in the mall, and you have to look for it. The ambience is simple, and a bit dark, probably because the location is buried in the back of the mall, but its very clean and organized and not cluttered. The people and service is good. Pretty basic but friendly. I first came here to have Chicken Katsu. It was flavorful and the meat was tender. The sauce hit the spot and and satisfying. I plan to go back and try their sushi and ramen. The location is close to my home, which is a bonus for me. They are typically not very busy, i believe because most customers get their food to go. I did notice a lot of to go orders. Overall I think this place has great Asian food and great service. I plan to trey other dishes to get a better sense of their overall food experience.

While it felt weird getting all that waiter attention to ourselves, the food was undeniably good - and I'm pretty picky about my sushi / sashimi. They had unique sashimi roll creations and good bottled beer, which really hit the spot. If you go during happy hour, you get a free miso soup which is also nice. I would recommend this place and also go again as the food was delicious and of a high quality, and the staff was friendly. Ambience and decor looked cool in theory, but it was still kind of early in the day and totally empty so it was hard to get a great read - but probably fine! A+!

The inside is small and dark and the decor is very plain so it doesn't feel very welcoming for dine-in. I felt uncomfortable as soon as I sat down but wanted to give the food a chance because of the high ratings. Ordered salmon and tuna nigiri and the fish served was a long, awkward 1" wide slice so the portion felt skimpy. Quality of salmon and tuna were OK but not the freshest. I have had higher quality nigiri in the to-go section of my local Japanese market. Tried the 49ers roll and it was heavy on surimi and sauce. Baked mussels were good though. Place was very crowded during lunch time so other people seem to like it. Just not for me.

The tempura is terrible. I don't even know how to describe it, but it's mostly batter and the texture is somewhat tough, which is really strange for tempura. Probably the worst I've ever had.

From the moment we walked in, everyone was super polite and super friendly, making us feel right at home after a long drive. The food was absolutely incredible. The chewy rice cake had the perfect texture, and the soup was super tasty, rich, and comforting -- exactly what you hope for when craving real Korean food. Everything tasted super authentic, like a home-cooked meal rather than restaurant food. Honestly, this is probably the most authentic Korean food in the Bay Area we've had in a long time. Love love love it, and we will definitely plan our next trip around stopping here again!
