    Vegetable tempura
    Lorrie W.

    The service was amazing. The food was great. The restaurant was clean. The food came out fast and it was hot.

    One of my favorite spots in Atlanta to get sushi and ramen. The food here is delicious and the service is great. Its smaller on the inside but very cozy, there is a small parking lot so carpool if you can but you can park across the street.

    Cozy little gem with amazing food! The fried squid legs were crispy and addictive. Sashimi was super fresh and buttery. The stone bowl eel rice had that perfect crispy bottom, and pouring in the dashi broth = pure umami magic The agedashi tofu with mochi was so special -- they fry both the tofu and mochi, then serve it in a light broth. Chewy, crispy, and comforting all at once! The tonkatsu ramen had a rich, thick broth that wasn't greasy at all. Oh, and don't skip the fried ebi head -- crunchy and full of flavor! Call ahead -- it's a tiny spot, but they have free parking in the back. Already dreaming about my next visit!

    We walked in and this place was packed even with people waiting. We just KNEW it had to be bomb! We waited for about 35 minutes but went down to the grocery store just to explore. We got seated and the for our waiter Brandon who was extra cool. Very helpful in what we were looking for and helped with the menu. Th place not only had some of the best ramen I have personally tasted, but their combo items and prices are very reasonable. You won't break the bank here at all. Even if you don't like ramen or sushi, you will find something on the menu you enjoy. There are so many different choices, it's endless and everyone dining will be happy. The decor of the place was pretty cool as well. It was a clean restaurant and again the waitstaff as a whole was phenomenal. Most definitely on my return list.

    I'll keep this short. Great Japanese restaurant. Brought back a lot of memories from college days. Good ramen, fresh sushi and sashimi. Service is great.

    Additional parking

    Delicious, cute, reasonably priced. I had curry ramen. Noodles were not thick but had good texture. Two people for lunch, $40. Clean, attentive, prompt, fun! Grocery store has cute Sanrio and Studio Ghibli items. Little parking lot behind restaurant and overflow parking available on next block. Permit parking in adjacent residential neighborhood.

    This place is so fun. The interior Decor is very Japanese festival style. They have so many interesting sushi rolls and my girlfriend who is gluten-free was easily able to find things to have. Below the restaurant is a shop where you can get Japanese ingredients and fun import items.

    Katsu Curry, swirling eel roll, 1 piece of Green Typhoon "Midori no Taifu", miso soup

    Loved my dinner tonight. Parking was a bit scarce but we found a spot on the street. This is a busy little place but it still has room for larger parties (6 people). I ordered the swirling eel and the green typhoon rolls along with the chicken katsu curry. They placed a chopped up red pickle on the curry plate, delicious. But if you want more of it, you have to pay $2. I didn't think that was worth it. Along with a green tea the meal came to around $55. I'll definitely be back. Come here with friends or on a third date when you're more familiar. It's a little loud and not that private otherwise. I passed this place so many times and I'm glad I came in.

    Happy grad !

    I have to brag! My reservation for my daughter's graduation luncheon canceled the day before her graduation. I was a nervous wreck and reached out to the owner via email of this restaurant and ask for them to make a reservation for us. They quickly replied and welcomed us for our large party. I can't tell you how wonderful it was to get a reply so quickly not to mention walking into the restaurant with our large table right in front of the window set up just for us. We felt like total VIPs. It was the perfect setting for my daughter's luncheon because she definitely loves sushi and said is all of her friends. We were all seated comfortably. We had excellent service from Henry. He cleared the plates right away, took our order made sure we were accommodated and everyone in the restaurant congratulated my daughter when she walked in I couldn't have asked for a better place to enjoy our lunch. They let us order multiple orders of sushi drinks plenty of time to relax and enjoy our luncheon. They even took our pictures for us and a lot of us to take pictures outside of the restaurant. We never felt rushed. The service was off the charts. We love the idea of shopping in the grocery store below the restaurant. A huge thank you to Henry for the excellent service a huge thank you to the owner for a common in my last-minute reservation. I highly recommend this company the food. The service was top-notch. Thank you again for making my daughter's graduation super special.

    Four Seasons "Shiki"
    Lauren C.

    I had an excellent time here; the service and food were on top! The host/server was super helpful in letting us know how to get our parking validated and what menu items were most popular. I had the Four Seasons Shiki roll, and it tasted as great as it appeared. I'll definitely be back to try some other rolls.

    We love all the combo options here and the difference beer selection, always quick service

    Miso Soup

    I came here for my birthday last month. Parking was a bit difficult to figure out but there is a small lot behind the restaurant and a cute little grocery store attached to it with tons of Asian food items. The service was really good. I was offered to go drinks without asking and the server was very attentive. The food was good, although I felt like it was more on the bland side for sushi but certainly not bad. I'd come here again.

    Maddie H.

    Very casual and cute ambiance. The food was filling and the service was great. I also am a really big fan of the grocery store underneath. They have sushi grade fish and quick bites.

    Do I need to make a reservation?

    Nope, at least not when I went and I went on a Saturday night!

    For the udon, is the broth fishy or miso? I don't eat either...

    Thank you so much for contacting us. The broth for udon is made of bonito which is a type of fish. We are sorry you won't be able to enjoy our udon. However, we have other various items to choose from. If you have any further questions, please feel… Read more

Its a superd item to pick at while waiting for the orders to arrive. Make sure you dip it in that ultra garlicky mayo. Because with the sauce its a 9.3/10 * Pork Bao Buns - Porky flavor is present. Mayo for creaminess and cucumber for a refreshing finish. 8/10 * Gyoza - Its super crunchy. Flavors are spot on. It's somewhat mid but over all not a bad gyoza. 7.5/10 * Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen - Wonderful, the noodles are perfecf, broth exceptional, the pork melts in your mouth and the jammy egg is a jammy egg. Spice is bang on as well. The whole dish is a 9.8/10 The place is super nice and tidy. The staff is amazing and I would definitely recommend.

The pork was moist the bun was soft and delicate. The pork was crisp but not overly crispy. The bun wasn't overfilled and was perfect! I ordered the Spicy Ramen w/ crispy chicken by accident!! How could I do that??? I went for their homemade dipping noodles!! Dang! Anyway, the broth was aromatic and yummy. The Ramen with the fresh garlic (Extra charge but didnt even need it) and the chili paste...was soo comfy and paired really well with the overcast, rainy weather that day. I kept wondering...how does the chicken stay so crisp?? I've dunked it with every bite and slurp!! Gotta try! As I mentioned, I did go back. For the dipping noodles, and unfortunately, did not enjoy them. They were served cold, which I had read, and was served with a warm broth. The broth wasn't "warm" enough to thoroughly warm the thick handmade dipping noodles, for my liking. I also thought the broth was overly fishy for my taste.

We decided to try Slurpin' Ramen Bar first. I had read that they originally started in California so I had a good feeling about it and I'm so glad we went! Their tonkotsu broth was probably the best I've had in the US. It was rich and full of flavor without feeling overly heavy. It was so good that we didn't want to leave any behind so we actually took the leftover broth with us for the 5-hour drive home (thankfully we had a cooler bag!). I immediately had to tell my son who's currently living in LA for college so he can visit one there too. This place is definitely going on our must-visit restaurant list from now on.

First, when you walk into the restaurant, it is very cute, has a bar for solo diners and booths incase you are in a group. The location is very cozy and the employees were great! Our server was very patient and had no problem explaining, re-explaining, and confirming with the chef if he wasn't 100% on an answer. I got a tofu rice bowl, which I typically don't get and it was delicious! I asked if the salad could be put on the side rather than in the bowl and was given a full side salad that I wound up mixing into my rice lol. I also added broccoli to the bowl, which I probably wouldn't do again because it was pretty bland, but overall the bowl was good. Now the vegan dumplings... were FANTASTIC! We shared the dumplings and everyone agreed that they were easily the best thing that we had eaten the whole day. The green color threw me off at first, but the crispiness and texture of the dumpling was amazing. I would love to go back and try the ramen to see how it measures up, but again, great experience. Also, when you are paying the check, they bring you a small bucket full of dum dum lollipops, which I thought was a great touch. Me and my adult guests all left like happy children, which is exactly how eating out should make you feel.
