I definitely love this restaurant…read more We order to go as my assistance device can be a challenge with going into eat at restaurants but I intend to eat in the restaurant first chance I get. I loved the chicken ramen, the mango chicken, the crab salad, the veggie gyoza, the harumaki. The matcha cheesecake, the bubble tea are all among my top picks for the best. The service is good. Jenny is friendly. The dining area is charming. Highly recommend trying their food.

What a great little ramen placed tucked-in Glen Rock!…read more Came on a Sunday afternoon and nobody was in the restaurant! It's not too big --- maybe sit 20-30pp. max. However, it was a comfortable setting. Food-wise, tried several dishes: the takoyaki ($10), the karaage ($9) as well as the Ika Furai ($10) for appetizers, along with the Kokoro Black Garlic Tonkatsu Ramen ($19.50). The appetizers all came out fairly quickly, and were nice and hot. Highlights were definitely the karaage and takoyaki (although I may have a bias to them). I though the Ika Furai (fried calamari) was going to be "pieces of tentacles, etc", it wasn't. It was the same calamari rings you can get anywhere, so I'd pass on that. However, let's talk about that Kokoro Black Garlic Tonkatsu Ramen. The ramen broth was rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. The toppings were great --- and the egg was a nice jammy consistency. The noodles were a good texture, and the soup was served nice and hot. That black garlic provided the right backdrop to such a wonderful rich ramen. Don't even get me started on the charred-tonkatsu. Such a beautiful meaty piece that was sitting on top of that bed of noodles. Totally recommend this. Pro-tip: ask for some spicy-oil on the side, then you get the best of both worlds - black garlic and spice. Overall, I totally recommend this place if you're looking to satisfy that ramen craving. You don't need to go to Paramus, or the Palisades, or even Ridgewood --- just go to this small business, you'll find big flavor!

We were looking to get some ramen while in the area & found this place as an option, so we decided…read moreto give it a try. Drinks just stuck to Water, did tried to order the Lavender lemonade but they forgot it ahh in the end not that big a deal. To start we gave the Fried Shrimp a try, very good nice dipping sauce. I gave the Black garlic ramen a try great tasting broth, very good ramen. Hubby had the Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen combo with the fried chicken, very good as well, good chicken nice & crispy. Small place, simple decor , service was not bad & decent prices we enjoyed our ramen.

Got the beef ramen combo with veggie dumplings, and lychee boba (takeout). Food was ready quickly…read more But the pricing wasn't clear. It said the combo was $18, and the boba was $5. But then the total came out to $29 after tax?? Apparently I got charged an extra $3 for the beef?? Then the way they package the food could be improved. So there was a container with the broth, and a smaller inner container holding the other ingredients. It was a little inconvenient to get out, but once I did, I dumped it into the broth. But the noodles were on the bottom, meaning they were on top after the flip. So I was stuck just eating my way through the noodles before I reached everything else, and it was all in a big block, so it took a while to soften and loosen up. Also the container was kinda tall, so it was awkward to get the fork in there. Anyway, the food itself was good. The broth had a lot of flavor. Beef was fine, but could've been browned more. Veggie dumplings were awesome, and the lychee boba was obviously delicious.

I first came here through a Yelp Elite experience and loved it so much that I came back again with…read moremy family. We ordered the tofu bao buns, shrimp bao buns, karaage, curry, and dessert - the bao buns were OK, but the karaage, curry, and dessert were delicious. They have the BEST bingsoo. We tried the crème brûlée bingsoo and it was amazing - not too sweet, not overly large, just the perfect size. I've tried many different bingsoos, and this one is hands down my favorite. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have discovered this place if it weren't for the Yelp Elite event, and I'm so glad I did. I'll definitely be back to try their ramen next time. Service was good, though a little slow at times even when it wasn't very busy. The space itself is huge and very roomy. One thing to note: during the winter it can get quite chilly inside since the restaurant is right next to the entrance doors - we ended up wearing our coats the entire time. To the owner: please bring back the tofu and shrimp tacos with the green sauce because they were amazing!

Went to Tojo Kitchen for lunch on a Saturday. It's a pretty big space for a restaurant inside…read moreGarden State Plaza, though a lot of it is closed off or behind curtains. The menu features Korean/Japanese food. I got to try the cheese fries, onigiri/karaage bento, and the chicken shio ramen. The cheese fries had a slightly sweet and very umami cheese sauce. The chicken ramen was OK. I've definitely had better. The onigiri/karaage bento is a good value, i'd probably get it again if i were to return. The food is OK, the large space is convenient.

Four of us went to Gen on a Thursday evening, and sat at the sushi bar. The overall experience…read morewas delightful! Before ordering our meal, a pair of small appetizers was put in front of us. Mostly, we asked Tony to choose the sushi and sashimi creations for us, and he delivered it, not all at once, but in the more traditional Japanese style, a few carefully prepared pieces at a time. The variety of fishes was wonderful, particularly, including Uni, one of my favorites. The one non-raw-fish-eater in our party chose the beef Negimyaki dinner, a delicious dish and large enough to be a great souvenir for the next day. All this was accompanied by a good Sauvignon Blanc. On this visit the restaurant was not at all crowded, and, as a result, quiet. It seems that much of their business is takeout, at least on weekdays. I highly reccomend Gen Sushi for a delightful Japanese experience at a reasonable price.

Came into Tojo's and left seriously impressed. The takoyaki was perfectly crisp on the outside and…read moresoft inside, with great flavor balance. The pork chashu don was rich and satisfying--the pork was tender and well-seasoned without being too heavy. The standout for me was the shoyu whiskey ramen--deep, layered broth with a subtle smoky note that made it unique without overpowering the dish. Everything tasted thoughtfully prepared, and you can tell there's real attention to detail in both flavor and execution. Service was smooth and the overall experience felt elevated but still comfortable. Easy 5 stars. Will definitely be coming back.

Of the two Cho Cho San restaurants in this plaza, I preferred this Chinese one over the sushi and…read morehibachi one for the decent food and portions. Both restaurants had similar "ok/fine" service that was not super patient or friendly. The food was overall good but most dishes could have used more toppings); for example, the mei fun, udon noodles and fried rice all had a rather unbalanced ratio of rice or noodles to vegetables/protein. The only one flipped the other way was the dish ordered off the specials menu. The ramen was not bad but I probably wouldn't order it again because it wasn't authentic; one plus was that it didn't make me feel super thirsty afterwards. They do have lunch specials but only on weekdays. The ambiance was cleaner and better than expected from looking at the outside - they made an effort with the decoration to make it feel Asian like, even if not super modern. Parking was easy and shared with other establishments.
