It's not authentic Japanese, it's an interpretation of Japanese by Chinese workers and Cooks. Also, Chinese service isn't great and the waiter here isn't attentive and a bit too casual for my taste. The food itself is just acceptable, and for the price not great. The atmosphere also still is pretty weak, and the restaurant is small. It's sort of almost like a hole on the wall. On the West Coast, I've eaten at over 30 authentic Japanese restaurants, and for those of you who aren't Japanese restaurant or sushi aficionados... This food is probably fine. If you know we're good, Japanese food is, don't come here and frankly you may need to drive to Boston to get it.

Went to lunch here on a Sunday I was visiting the New Botanical Garden in W. Boylston. I would…read morehonestly say that if you visit the area, you really need to eat here. It is a small but comfortable restaurant with booths and tables. It has a great menu of ramen, noodles bowls, rice bowls, and appetizers. I got the Chicken crispy roll and spicy Pork Gyoza. There was a nice sweet chili sauce with the delicious crispy rolls. The spicy pork gyoza were superb, my wife and daughter make their own dumplings and thought they were excellent. The spicy sauce with good heat but not overwhelming so as not to affect the flavor of the dumpling. My wife got the Pork chashu Tonkotsu Ramen and thought it was excellent. My wife got the Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen with pork chashu. She thought the brought was tremendous and the dish as a whole was excellent. The best on this was a bit more but very good front end heat and then some nice back end zing. Tried some that the daughter gave me and we both really liked it. There was some slight dryness to the pork chashu that seemed sliced thin but still good. this restaurant will be almost be a reason for us to visit the Botanical garden again soon.

It was around $42 for 2 soups (with extra additions), the appetizer and two drinks! Amazing price point in my opinion.

The tonkatsu ramen was decent overall, though definitely on the saltier side.

We also loved the self-serve tea section, which was a nice touch and a great addition to the experience.

The dipping sauce helped make up for being overcooked. I chose not to say anything as it was late, they were closing soon. I also ordered stone pot Bibimbap. I was pleased with it. The only thing I found off was this is the only Korean restaurant I've found that charges extra for stone pot. I've always had it served in a stone pot. Although the waiter, perhaps owner greeted me when I came in and answered any questions I had, he never returned after my appetizer or meal were delivered to ask how they were. That's not acceptable. I was assuming he was already aware the scallion pancake was over cooked and didn't want to hear it. For the overall amount of food I'd say the prices were reasonable, just not sure I'll return when I'm in the area again. Side note I do like kimchi and I liked their kimchi. Also many Korean restaurants will serve a side of fruit after the meal. Not sure if that is a cost saving measure in difficult times.

Located in a busy area with lots of shops across from the Apex center. Got the tonkotsu and miso ramen. The broth is a pork based soup. This place knows how to make the broth very satisfying, savory and slurpy. Too many S words? Maybe . Noodles texture was perfect and the veggies compliments it well. The pork belly cha siu was rich and fatty and terrific - the definition of comfort food. The only gripe was egg was an add on .. other than that a must visit if you're in the area. They have a bar area if you're going alone and just want to enjoy the food without company.
