Wonderful little ramen restaurant in Langley! On a rainy Tuesday, we were the first ones there for…read morelunch so were able to enjoy the little counter seating. Perfect dishes for the day, warm and so yummy. We had a Tan Tan shrimp and a Tonkatsu, with no additions although it was tempting to amend! The ramen broth is very rich and each was different. You have the option to add sesame oil, chili oil, a delicious soy sauce, 3 kinds of pepper in shakers and a fresh grind of sesame seeds. The egg is cooked to perfection - whites solid and the yolk mostly cooked with the center soft and creamy. A small dish of edamame is served as an appetizer. The staff are friendly and the food was served by the chef with a smile. We enjoyed watching the dishes being created. You might have a wait on a busy day but it is definitely worth it.

Nestled behind the main walking areas, you can follow the street signs to this restaurant. We arrived just before they opened for the evening from 4:30pm. It is not a large restaurant but we were early. Bright and cheerful interior with shelves of Japanese sweets and some souvenirs on the side. Our favorite and go-to is the tonkotsu which has the thicker pork bone broth. We have not visited for a year or so and the price has gone up while the volume seemed to have gone down. Nevertheless the taste was great and we were satisfied with the meal.

I'm placing this as one of my new favorite sushi spots on the Eastside! Four of us came for an early dinner around 4:30P on a Saturday and got seating right away in a booth. The restaurant is on the smaller end with just a few tables on each side and a few seats at the sushi bar. In addition to an appetizer, two of us shared three specialty sushi rolls and the other two in our group ordered the chicken katsu meal set. Our sushi arrived beautifully all on one plate. Each specialty roll included 10 pieces and they all contained a generous amount of filling with a relatively thin rice layer, making the average price of $18 - $19 per roll worth the value. + TAKOYAKI ($7.50): These deep-fried dumplings had a soft creamy interior and housed a small piece of tender octopus. Four pieces came in an order, topped with mayo, unagi sauce and bonito flakes. I loved the crispy exterior and they were served steaming hot. I am not sure they were made in-house or frozen, but they were delicious. + KOUSHI ROLL ($17.99): A crab, avocado and cucumber roll topped with cajun seared salmon, spicy mayo, unagi sauce, green onion and fish roe. Between the crab filling and spicy mayo, this is a pretty creamy roll. The salmon on top had a very light sear, so while the smoky flavor was noticeable, I considered it closer to raw. The unagi sauce added some sweetness that offset the mild spice. + NAGOYA ROLL ($18.99): Tuna avocado roll topped with salmon, ponzu sauce, sweet sesame sauce, green onion and fish roe. The freshness of the fish especially shined here between the large cubes of tuna inside and the meaty slice of raw salmon on top. The sauce simply enhanced the roll without taking over the flavor, so it didn't distract from the purity of the ingredients. + SETO ROLL ($18.99): Spicy tuna and cucumber inside topped with tuna, ponzu sauce and green onion. This roll is HOT, like at least 3/5 stars on the spice scale! As spicy as it was, I really enjoyed it, especially since half the roll was topped with medium fatty tuna which was such a nice treat. Lean tuna draped over the other half. Chopped green onion on top added pops of freshness. The chicken katsu meal ($16.99) came with salad, rice and miso soup. I tried one piece of the chicken which was tender and had an excellent light crunch! Service was great as the two employees managing the dining room checked back a couple times and were actively watching in case any of the tables needed anything. I know I'll be back again for more sushi!

We…read morewalked in without a reservation on a Sunday evening before they closed at 7pm (around 530pm?) - there were two tables available and we took one of them. Parking in the plaza wasn't too difficult. We ordered a koshihikari beer, a Sukiyaki nabe, an oyakodon, and an agedashi tofu to start. The missus liked the tofu the most - the nabe had a ton of broth (I always figured Sukiyaki would be a thinner layer?), and the oyakodon was decent. Honestly I'd probably come back if I lived nearby, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. Pricing felt reasonable for the portion sizes - we both left reasonably full, given that we only ate one meal before then in the morning.

The food here is authentic fresh and delicious. If you want a variety of items, order a Bento. As the photo shows, the bento contains a piece of apple for dessert, a salad with delicious miso dressing, macaroni salad, tonkatsu dipping sauce for the main course, potatoes and carrots cooked in a broth, edamame, sweet egg blocks, bean sprouts lightly cooked in a sweet soy broth, pickled cucumbers and rice with sesame seeds sprinkled on top. The star of this bento is the wonderful pork cutlet. It's so crispy on the outside and so moist and tender on the inside. It's one of the best I've had since my obaasan (grandma) was around. We'll be back to try the other options soon!

The chowder was packed with both seafood and flavor. It had great seasoning and herbs and was soooo much better than the one we wasted our money on further south on Whidbey. Both mussel dishes had excellent flavor. We took leftover chowder, mussels, and garlic bread home with us for another meal. We're looking forward to trying their other mussel preparations on our next visits!

I'm largely trying to eat low-carb, so I went in planning to order sushi without rice. My server, Haejoo, recommended the poke bowl instead, and I'm really glad I took her advice.

I easily could have ordered just two proteins and been perfectly satisfied. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The restaurant has a bright, welcoming interior with lots of natural light from the windows and pleasant lighting over the tables. Service was excellent! They checked on me regularly. I'll definitely eat here again on future trips.
