    Went with pretty large group (7 of us). Service was fast and the server was nice. For augusta it's pretty good ramen option. The ramen soup was a tad salty but acceptable. Will definitely be back to try them again and maybe checkout the non ramen options

    Went during their soft opening. Service was fast and friendly. Server was helpful. Got the potato wrapped shrimp appetizer, really good. For main meal, i got the infernal ramen and husband got miso chicken. Noodles were cooked perfectly. I added more chili oil to my infernal ramen, I thought it was a little on the salty side for the broth but otherwise flavors were there. It was a soft opening so they were likely still working out the kinks. Husband enjoyed his chicken miso as it was. Looking forward to going back and trying other stuff!

    So I saw this posted on FB and was so excited to finally have a ramen plane to go to. We'll it did not disappoint at all. The atmosphere was tranquil and comfortable. The service was really fast. There was no wait and got sat fast. Cynthis our waitress was awesome and attentive. Well every single thing we ordered was cooked to perfection and the seasoning was top notch. I would definitely come back and so would all my family. My daughter loved the ramen and the Japanese chicken. I recommend everyone to come and try it out.

    Potato shrimp (recommend)

    Food: 7 out of 10 Service: 4 out of 5 Atmosphere: 4 out of 5 Price/Value: 3.5 out of 5 Overall: 3.7 out of 5 Recommendations: Potato Shrimp Not a fan of this place. Ramen are on the expensive side but don't live to the prices. The Sapporo miso ramen I got tasted kind of weird and tasted like it was made from powders instead of fresh broth. I will not return and will seek better ramen places in town.

    Went to Zen Ramen with my girls and left questioning my life choices--mainly why I don't already live there. Kris was attentive and flawless, Tony mixed cocktails that could solve world peace, and the ramen? Pure poetry in a bowl. But those octopus balls... I'm in a full-blown situationship. Can't quit, won't quit. Someone stage an intervention--preferably over another round.

    I know it's unfair to compare it to ramen in Japan, but don't expect much depth in the broth flavor. Still, it's probably the best ramen spot around here! I went right when they opened in the morning. The broth was lukewarm, but the noodles were piping hot. I plan to visit again next time. The takoyaki was delicious!

    Vegetarian ramen

    I had the best experience. Hostess was beyond friendly and my server knew the menu as if she created it. I ordered the edamame and vegetarian ramen with Japanese green tea and lemonade. Everything was absolutely delicious. The servers are very attentive and eager to insure you have a great experience. 10/10 highly recommend!!

    Fried Tofu

    I LOVE Ramen . Moved here from Calif where I've eaten Ramen for 30 years . The atmosphere and staff is friendly and welcoming. The interior is definitely done well giving you the feeling of being in Japan. We ordered the vegetarian Ramen and the Mayu Pork Ramen . Both were just ok and edible. I removed my Tofu and didn't eat it because the Then you said grilled so I assumed it was like steamed just grilled a little bit. However, it is definitely fried with a coating so if you like your tofu to absorb the flavors, that's not possible being that it's fried. It's a texture thing for me and I don't care for it at all. The broth vegetarian was excellent more on the creamy side. Whereas the broth on the menu was a pork broth. Again ok! Not terrible but not amazing either . We had two ramens , a shumai app and a sweet tea and out bill was $50 before tip. Would like to see more options on the menu for vegetarians like a rice bowl as well.

    Amazing food, wonderful service, and the ambiance was very relaxing. We went right at open because we had our dog and wanted to sit in the outside seating area. They were amazing and so attentive! Will 100 go back again and again

    Stopped in today after my daughter had senior pictures to try Korean food. She's not a picky…read moreeater, but I was surprised she was open to trying all the food. The staff was extremely friendly and the restaurant was clean. The food was fresh and delicious! The short ribs were absolutely amazing. The tofu was not our cup of tea but that was due to the actual texture of tofu and nothing to do with the restaurant. We'd never had tofu before and wanted to try it. Now we've tried it! I would go back again and try the other types of bulgogi they offer.

    Stopped by Seoul Korean Kitchen the other day to try their Jjajangmyeon and kimchi jjigae…read more Banchan 3.5/5: The kimchi was pretty standard, similar to what you would get from a decent brand at H mart. The bean sprouts were a bit salty. Chili cucumber was well seasoned and refreshing, and the sliced fish cake was the highlight with a slight sweet and sesame oil flavor. Each dish supposedly comes with a banchan, but if you eat with another person, then you get 1 set of banchan only with 1 refill and additional refills cost $2.50 which was different from most cities I have been to with a more established asian food scene (Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, etc). jjajangmyeon 4/5: The jjajangmyeon had decent portions. The noodles were really nice and chewy, and the sauce on top had a slight sweetness to it that made it different from the chinese jiajiang mian I normally eat. There were plenty of zucchini and onion pieces, and the pork was tender and just a bit fatty which I enjoyed. Highlight of the meal. Kimchi Jjigae 3/5: The kimchi jjigae comes with kimchi, tofu, and pork pieces in a stew and a side of rice. The stew itself comes out piping hot but is almost 90% kimchi and minimal tofu and pork. Very few pieces of tofu and pork, unlike the jjajangmyeon which had more generous amounts of pork. The rice bowl it comes with is quite small. We ran out well before the kimchi stew was completed, and they charge $2 for rice refills. Overall, the food was decent and service is solid. Pricing was slightly steep with a bowl of jjajangmyeon (noodles with stir fry pork sauce overlying) running at $19 and a bowl of mostly kimchi and a few pieces of tofu/pork pieces costing $17. Their banchan/rice refill policy is questionable, but the food scratches the itch in a city with a smaller Korean population and minimal competition.
