    We love our server Robin! From the entrance to the bathrooms a darker, cozy ambiance and always tidy when we've visited. We got appetizers this visit and felt satisfied. The crispy chicken thighs with a side of spicy mayo was the star of the show. Unsure what the salad was dressed with so we skipped it. Sushi was mostly rice, but nice as a quick appetizer for hungry tummies. Seaweed salad atop fresh salad greens and our classic order of pork gyoza rounded out our visit just fine. I'm too short to feel comfortable on the wooden seated barstools, I'll remember to ask for a booth. Oh, and there wasn't a place to put my purse which made holding my purse awkward, but I made it work.

    I loved this place for the thick and savory broths! Friday night was very busy, but we got in just in time before a quoted 30 minute wait. Seated at the bar we were serviced by our bartender Josh. He was handling several drinks and had a lot of orders so there was a little bit of a wait. But Josh was very attentive throughout service. I ordered the Tan Tan Ramen, husband ordered the Tonkatsu Black. I loved the chewy and thick ramen noodles in the Tan Tan Ramen. But the green onion almost took me out! It kept getting stuck in my throat because of the way it was cut, plus it was mostly the white part so it was tough. Otherwise a perfect bowl of noodles. The Tonkatsu Black Ramen was just as good. The noodles were thinner and not our favorite in texture. The soft boiled egg was probably my favorite part. Amazingly flavorful, soft, runny, and yummy! I can see why this place was THE busiest on a bustling Friday. It was a great restaurant to get a nice comforting bowl of ramen.

    We stopped in for dinner and had such a great experience. We tried a bunch of different things and honestly everything hit. The tempura Brussels sprouts were amazing, super crispy and full of flavor. We also got the Impossible bao bun and Impossible gyoza -- both were really good, especially for plant-based options. My friend ordered the spicy creamy vegan ramen and added bean sprouts, broccoli, and bok choy. It was delicious on its own and even better with the extra veggies. I got the spicy chicken ramen with corn and fresh garlic. I ordered it spicy, but it landed more medium-spicy (my tolerance pretty high), but still really good with or without the add-ins. For drinks, the Flying Violette was great -- I love an egg-white cocktail. The "E Tomo E Tomo E Tomorrow" ended up being both of our favorites of the night. It's sweet, but in the best way. And the Lycheetini was also delicious. Iris took care of us and she was wonderful -- super friendly and knowledgeable about the food and drink menu. Would ask for her again. Overall, great food, great drinks, and great service. We'll definitely be back.

    Cute place in a little strip mall in a nice part of Fort Collins. The businesses nearby are classy chains of retail and restaurants and fitness, so this is a very popular area for foot traffic We came on a Monday night around 9 PM, which was nice that they close a little later than other places in the area. We had no problem, getting sat immediately. Our server, Seher, was great. Not only was she very knowledgeable about all the foods and immediately went to ask the kitchen when she didn't know the answer to something (are the takoyaki made in house? Answer: no), but she was sweet and a delight to have around. We tried the creamy spicy shrimp tempura at her recommendation and they were very good. Personally, I liked the aburi salmon sushi appetizer better, but that's just because I'm not so much into fried food. My boyfriend tried the Ramen, which he got pretty spicy and seemed to love. I tried the garlic rice with chicken, it was a little dry for me and not much depth of flavor, a soy sauce and spicy mayo. Mix on top helped bring it out a little better, but I don't think I'd order it again. I probably messed up by not getting Ramen. Next time! Thanks

    My classmates and I decided to try out this ramen spot in Fort Collins, it was our first time in town. We were a little skeptical at first because there aren't that many ramen spots here and also since we have pretty high standards when it comes to ramen especially since we're from California with plenty of ramen spots, but we were pleasantly surprised. The ramen was honestly delicious. I ordered the Jinya Tonkotsu Black, and the broth was super flavorful and full of umami. The thin noodles were cooked perfectly and had the right amount of firmness. The only thing that didn't quite do it for me was the egg. I was expecting a softboiled egg, but it came out fully boiled, which was a bit of a letdown. For drinks, I got the Matcha Lychee Lemonade mocktail which was really refreshing and I'd definitely recommend it. Our server was super friendly and checked in on us throughout the meal. I also really liked the interior, it had a great vibe and felt perfect for groups. I definitely enjoyed the experience here.

    Great food, service, and ambiance. All the food, appetizers, and deserts were just delicious. We would definitely go back... great spot for a date night. Highly recommend.

    I love this place! The ramen is delicious, full of flavor, and filling. The seating is a little close to each other so it can feel cramped, but overall the restaurant has a great vibe. I personally like that the staff yell something anytime someone walks in or leaves. They're all acknowledging your presence and patronage. The food was delicious! I got the JINYA Tonkotsu Black and asked for it to be made spicy and they accommodated. I think it could've been much spicier so I added more chili at the table, but I appreciate them adjusting my order for me. We also got the Birria Ramen and the Spicy Chicken Ramen. The waiter forgot to check on our table so he made up for it by getting us a free dessert. He gave us the panna cotta and it was delicious! The homemade panna cotta, vanilla ice cream, and caramel sauce were perfect and not overly sweet. It was the perfect way to end the meal.

    I'll likely revise this in the future after I return (IF I return), but based on my experience, weeks after their grand opening, I was beyond disappointed. We walked in around noon on a Monday and were greeted by the staff yelling the same word at us as we entered. The music was insanely loud and almost unbearable - we debated leaving simply because of that. They sat us at a middle table even though we preferred the table by the window and all of those seats were empty, and remained empty, as we left. Our young server dully rattled off his spiel to us, telling us they had a cocktail list but he was sure that we wouldn't want a drink since it was midday on a weekday (It was our Saturday), so we decided not to get drinks. After he got through his entirely too-long-winded recital, we opted to start with the crispy chicken which came out very hot, and VERY salty. The majority of it was breading. I went for the Spicy Chicken Ramen with the "regular thick" noodles and was beyond underwhelmed by both the lack of spice and flavor in general. My husband ordered the Chicken Chashu Bowl which was lukewarm and lacking any type of sauce to render it anything but dry. We had to ask another server to get us our to-go containers after we sat at our table for a good ten minutes with obviously full plates/bowls, and our check to try to make the leftovers salvageable at home. As we left, the staff yelled "Arigato" at us in unison and we emerged into the wonderfully quiet outside world, greeted by the peaceful sound of College traffic instead of the painfully loud booming music in the cavernous interior. It will be a while before I return, if I return, especially thanks to the hefty bill we paid in exchange for less than mediocre food and service.

    We ordered take out from here as we just moved. I love that the menu had items specifically listed as vegan as it made it much easier to understand and follow. I had multiple options and I was so excited. The impossible bun was delicious and so flavorful! I got the vegan harvest ramen and loved it. I will say I am bummed out because even though it was labeled vegan there was an egg in my ramen. I was to tired to call or go to the restaurant to change it but otherwise we loved everything we ordered. I totally understand mistakes happen but as a vegan I was bothered by the egg touching my dish.

    The best ramen in FC so far. The egg was perfectly cooked (runny yolk) and chashu was flavorful and tender. The spicy ramen (at level 4) had quite a kick ! Chashu rice bowl was very comforting. Overall, great service, price and delicious. Highly recommend !

    Food and ambiance were great! I've been there twice and the food only keeps getting better. Service could be better but just be patient, they always have a full house.

    If you're anywhere near Fort Collins and haven't tried Kujira Ramen, you're missing out…read more I went all in: gyoza, pork belly steamed buns, and Tonkotsu Ramen -- and every single bite was absolutely unreal. The gyoza came out perfectly pan-seared -- crispy on the bottom, tender on top, and packed with flavor. That dipping sauce had just the right balance of salty, tangy, and savory. You could easily crush two orders without trying. The pork belly steamed buns were next-level. Soft, pillowy buns wrapped around rich, melt-in-your-mouth pork belly. The balance of fat, sweetness, and sauce was perfect. Messy in the best possible way. And then the star -- the Tonkotsu Ramen. The broth was deep, creamy, and packed with flavor -- that slow-simmered richness that tells you it was done right. The noodles had the perfect bite, and the pork was tender and seasoned beautifully. Every spoonful made you slow down just to appreciate it. Hands down one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Clean atmosphere, great service, incredible food. 10/10 -- already planning the next trip back.

    When walking in you are greeted with a gorgeous atmosphere that gives off a sushi bar type vibe…read more The service is super quick, especially because it is Ramen. But they were also fairly quick with the appetizers that we tried. The barbecue tofu was surprisingly delicious with a great texture and yummy sauce. The Gyoza was also a fan favorite with a light crispy bottom and a good filling. We tried two different ramens with two different proteins. The beef was a bit, tough and dry, but the chashu was nice and soft like melting in your mouth. The broth was also good and the noodles were nice and thin. Overall, I felt like this was a nice bite to eat and definitely filling. The only thing I felt that was lacking was the service on refilling water. I would definitely come back if I was around the area. They definitely got busy pretty quick.

    Courteous and thoughtful service. I followed the advice of Marilyn S who you should find and follow…read moreif you live in Ft. Collins or LA. Her recommendations to try anything here are spot on. The food was A1. We had a soup bowl Koi-sho (sp?) with beef, a chicken Thai basil stir fry, crab cheese, and spring rolls. We only regret we can't return in the near future, because we don't live in Colorado. It was completely worth the trip across town from our hotel to enjoy authentic food. The ingredients were fresh, the sauces were put together with expertise, the presentation was just right. I thought the spice level of 1 was perfect--heat that didn't overwhelm the other flavors. My husband didn't complain about his level 2. He thought it was great, but he wouldn't go higher. The restaurant itself is basic tables and chairs, but each table has a beautiful live flower rooting in water. Everything looked and felt clean.

    I have passed by this spot for years and never realized it was a restaurant until recently - I…read moreguess I thought it was an Asian grocery or something. Anyway, somewhere I'd heard relatively good things, so I stopped in for take-out when I found myself on this side of town. It was well into the dinner hour but the place was relatively empty - just a couple of people at one table. In retrospect, I should have taken this as a sign. I ordered one of my go-to dishes - pad see ew - and decided to try the fried tofu as an appetizer. I am struggling to find anything positive to say, so I'll just give it to you straight. The pad see ew had barely any broccoli, which to me is essential to the dish. I ordered it with beef - they used steak, but it was cut into tiny pieces and tough - cooked too fast and too well done most likely. The tofu was deep fried hard - as in there was a really hard crust - and it was packaged with absolutely no garnish, just the hard blocks of tofu and a container of sauce. I'm not sure if they've recently changed ownership or if I caught them on a bad day - it just seems weird to me that my experience was so contrary to all of the other reviews. I may give them another chance, but I can't say that I'm going to hurry back.
