The noodles themselves were just okay. The seaweed salad, which was ordered, was a good addition as some greens were needed to accompany the meal. Overall, I thought Ippin Ramen was good.

Stopped in for lunch at Ramen Nagomi and had a very solid experience overall. The ambiance is…read moreclean, simple, and modern, making it a relaxing place to sit down and enjoy a meal. I started with the spicy tuna tartare served on fried rice crisps. Perfect portion size, well-balanced seasoning, and just the right level of heat -- easily a 5/5 appetizer. For my entrée, I ordered the A5 beef ramen (not entirely sure of the official menu name, as I couldn't find it listed online). The bowl itself was intentionally simple, which worked in its favor. The broth was extremely rich and flavorful, and with a small addition of chili oil it was spot on. The noodles were clearly fresh and had excellent texture. My only real criticism was the amount of beef, which felt a bit light given the price point. My total for a solo lunch came to about $40 before tip. Overall, I'd rate the experience a 4/5. It's a great spot for an occasional treat, though probably not a regular go-to at that price. If I return, I'd likely explore some of the more budget-friendly ramen options on the menu.

I ordered ayce and they left out some of my orders couple of times so I had to keep on reminding them about them. You can just tell that they were poorly trained. I would never go back especially for sushi. Sushi restaurants should be extra clean and on point in my honest opinion.

Menu is mostly standard sushi with some interesting special rolls, along with a couple Chinese food offerings. Sushi for most part was good, not excellent but good. Sashimi Tuna was fresh tasting. Scallion pancake disgusting. I'd stay away from Chinese offerings based on that alone. Warnings are placed on table if you don't finish food I think it's $1 per plate, $8/lb for Chinese food charged If not eaten , or maybe that was for all food. Seems harsh. When I started the pancake was disgusting they didn't bother to take it away. So can use your imagination what we did with it. Would we go back? Possibly now that we know it's also BYOB, liquor store is in the plaza.

Everybody loved what they ordered -- including Jjajangmyeon, Kimchi Fried Rice, and Chicken Katsu. The gentleman, who I believe is the owner, was also our server and prepared our meals. He gave us "service" (complimentary Fried Rice Cake), in addition to the usual ban chan. I ordered the comforting Doenjang Jjigae (Soy Bean Paste Stew), and two orders of Tteokbokki to share. Would definitely recommend for authentic Korean food and would visit this place again. Ring the bell when you are ready to order!

The sushi is fresh and tasty, we enjoyed the seared scallop appetizer. My sushi (Tiger roll) was magnificent. The Yuzu lobster roll could have had a bit less rice in the roll but was otherwise very enjoyable. The combination of fish in this roll paired very nicely together. Taka has a vast menu with many options from appetizers to specialty sushi options. They provide alcoholic and non alcoholic mocktails for those of us not interested in consuming liquor.....the mocktails are fantastic. The only thing that made me rate 4 instead of 5 stars was the staff needs a bit of work on serving. We ordered an appetizer and were also given two additional small plates since we were sharing this item. When we were done with the appetizer our specialty sushi plates were bought out and the same server left the three empty plates from the appetizers on the table instead of removing them. Dessert was absolutely decadent and moist (I omitted the whipped cream since I don't like it) but the shortcake was perfect without it. I look forward to returning to Taka and trying more items on the menu.
