    Good food but dreadfully slow even when there is no line at all. Need more staff during lunch hours.

The tonkatsu ramen was perfect for a cold winter day. It was perfectly seasoned and the portion fit the price. The broth was rich yet not too heavy. My favorite was the soy marinated egg. I would definitely come back to try other ramens.

    I went here for a quick lunch and it was amazing. I have only been to a handful of ramen…read morerestaurants throughout my life, I tend to make my own being a poor college student. This place was far above what I was expecting. I was seated immediately and there were a few tables in there, nothing too crazy though. The server gave me a menu and water right away and let me figure out what I wanted. I ordered the Shoyu Ramen and added an extra egg to it, I love the soft boiled eggs in any ramen, and a spice level of 1. After ordering my food came within ten minutes. It was astonishingly fast. It came out hot and looked so good. The eggs were perfectly soft boiled, the pork was tender, the broth was flavorful and the perfect level of spice. The noodles were super good and all together it was a great bowl. The portion sizes were huge so I took the rest home for leftovers. My server checked on me often and was very attentive. She offered dessert but I was way too full. The service was super fast, I was probably in there for just over 40 minutes in total. I didn't feel rushed a t all, and overall it was a great place I will definitely be going to again.

    My review is about a month late because I forgot about yelp & google wasn't working but this place…read moreis a must! My daughter's name is Ember & after a little running around kenwood mall we pull out & notice their sign. Had no clue what to expect, got there right at open, & were seated in the bar area because we were absolutely not dressed for the dining room. I'm grateful they found us a spot though! Maggie (I think that was her name. It's been a while) was wonderful! Took amazing care of us! Started with crab cakes that were so flavorful & on this really delicious corn succotash. Then the sushi was unexpected delicious. Ours had steak and we ate the whole thing. We also got some brussel sprouts & fries (since I wasn't sure how my kid would react to the Brussels). Get the brussel sprouts! Kiddo ate them over the fries & I was shook. I have to bring my chef partner up with me so he can try to recreate them. They were incredible! Maggie then surprised my daughter with their signature dessert of elevated fried Oreos because of her name. It was so kind & soo so good. I think it was a raspberry sauce on the plate that was next level. I live in Lexington just a lil while down the road & needless to say I have been telling everyone about our experience. We're already planning a trip back up there just for dinner. 100/10. Thank you Maggie for taking such amazing care of us! You were such a bright spot in our day!

    Alright food, great service is what I thought. The servers are super attentive and nice. We had…read moreCrystal who was amazing! I do love some bread and butter and theirs was nice to start off with. We got the crab cakes and sushi for an appetizer. The crab cakes were seared nicely although we did wish there was bit more crab in them, the gremolata under was delicious. The sushi was pretty good and did taste fresh. We got the NY strip and Filet as our entrees with mac and cheese and french fries for the sides. The filet was cooked perfectly and was juicy with every bite. The NY on the other hand was very tough and hard to chew. It was not tender and had no flavor. We were suprised by this. The fries with the aioli were great and the mac and cheese was perfectly creamy. Over all we wished a few of the dishes were better but thought they could be fixed. The staff was excellent!
