Yelp had suggested this place and based off both reviews and photos, I had a feeling this place would be good! Happy to report, this place is quaint, cozy, and complete with both good eats and excellent service. The Vegetable Miso Ramen had a rich, flavorful broth that I enjoyed greatly. I love the ability to be able to order a half marinated egg as that is just what this ramen needed. All four of us enjoyed what we ordered and even the coworker who has never had Japanese food found something she liked. Love showing others new cuisines. We all left saying we would return. If you are in the area, check this place out! I know I will if I'm set back on a work trip.

I like how you can order your meal on the kiosk and make all kinds of adjustments like switch your meat option and add anything you want. My and my kids favorite part about the place is the kitty robot that brings your food to you! So cute!!! Best service you can ask for. The black tonkatsu ramen is the BEST!! Gotta try.

My husband and I stopped by ISO ISO Ramen for a weekday day date. It turned out to be the perfect…read morelittle midweek treat. The vibe is chill, clean, and spacious with Asian flair. You order at the counter or kiosk, grab a seat, and wait for your food. Since it wasn't busy, everything came out fast. The presentation? Picture worthy bowls that looked and smelled amazing (of course, I forgot to take pictures because I was too busy eating). My husband went for the ISO ISO Ramen ,YUMMY! He's a "the spicier, the better" kind of guy, so he would've liked more kick, but flavorwise it was a hit. I had the ISO ISO Rice Bowl with chicken, it was delicious and generous enough that I took home leftovers. Granted, I'm a light eater, so I always have leftovers. My husband, on the other hand, inhaled his entire bowl, but he'd agree that the portions were solid. Prices lean high for a casual lunch, but the food was worth it. Because honestly, there's nothing worse than spending your coins AND leaving mad cause the food is nasty. So, with that said, good food. Bonus points: plenty of parking and seating.

It was super crispy, but the meat was still so juicy. And the sweet and creamy sauces just finished the perfect bite. The ramens were pretty solid too. The matcha broth was super creamy and light. And the tonkotsu was so flavorful, with really tender chashu and a perfectly soft boiled egg. Plus the noodles were a really good texture. The restaurant itself is really cute too. They also have a convenience store type of ramen station in the front, which I really want to try. As well as a little arcade game that you can play in the front while you wait to be seated. However, I was really not a fan of the service. It's nothing really against the servers because they were super nice, but they just seemed so frazzled. We arrived around an hour before closing, but it took forever for us to be seated, despite seeing a few empty tables around. By the time we were seated, we were told kitchen would be closing in two minutes, so we had to hurry and put in our orders. All of that was fine and I didn't mind. But what I did mind was that our waitress checked our order twice when we first have it. And she came back to our table within the next five minutes to check our orders again for a third time to make sure she had down what we wanted. I wanted the matcha ramen and was most looking forward to having some chashu and egg. So she confirmed my order three times that I wanted matcha ramen. But when it came out, she gave me the vegetable bowl. I knew the kitchen had closed at that point, so I just ate it, but I was really disappointed. (I did get to try a bite of my friends egg and chashu, which also didn't really help because it was so good and made me wish mine came with those even more.) When we were finished eating, it took forever for the checks to come out. This I also didn't mind that much, because the servers, again, looked really frazzled trying to close up. But at this point we had waited until well after their closing time, so part of me was hoping they could just close us out first and then finish closing down the place. I think we waited at least half an hour from when we first asked for the check (at which point we had already been waiting a while) to when we finally got our cards back. I did see they charged me for the vegetable version of the matcha ramen so it was whatever, but then also I was confused - so it wasn't a mix up in the kitchen, she rang it up as the vegetable one from the beginning! Even though I never mentioned it and she never said vegetable when confirming my order. It was a dollar less to get tofu instead of an egg and chashu which doesn't seem worth it. Writing this all out, I'm sorry to rant, because the food really was good. And looking at other reviews, it looks like the service is usually pretty good. But again, it was just disappointing. That being said, I am really hoping it was a one off thing because I would go again and try some other menu items too.

Server is extremely attentive regardless of the fact that they are not taking your order directly. As soon as I completed my order, I could hear it come through to the kitchen and the order being started. Food came out quick! Let me just talk about the takoyaki for a minute. These delicious little balls are epic. There's not a really fishy taste to them, but there are flakes of fish for the topping of these octopus balls. Perfectly crisp on the outside and gooey good on the inside. Honestly could just eat these and be in heaven. Good news, egg rolls are man finger sized. Bad news, you only get two per order. Nearly scarfed these crispy rolls down in one bite, they were so tasty. The main meals were kimchi fried rice and black tonkotsu ramen. I shared the ramen with a teen and we had just enough leftover for one more serving the next day. It's hearty and filling! The soft boiled egg was perfect! The pork was so tender, it could be broken up with chopsticks or a fork alone. Broth was perfection with a good umami flavor and a savory warmth. Corn was the pop of crunch needed. However, the kimchi fried rice was controversial for its flavor at our table. While some in the party liked the smoky flavor of the blackened rice, others felt it was too much and made the dish acrid. Didn't have a strong kimchi taste to any of us. Color was beautiful. Reheated ramen review: Flavor was great the next day; no loss in texture. Broth might have even been more savory the next day.
