Smooth and rich broth with a bit of sweetness. The noodles “kata” firmness were just right. Only downside pricey at ~$17/bowl if you want an egg (and the egg was still a tad cold in the middle). Overall tasty, would eat again if we are in the area.

Everything taste good , flavorful but not too salty, the fried chicken is bomb ! Gotta give a try! Much more Expensive than regular ramen or noodle place

The service was great as soon as we got there with their attentive and friendly staff. Ordered a few different ramens and my miso tonkatsu was the least favorite. Says more that the other were slightly better, not that mine wasn't good. The karagee (sp?) chicken was very good so can see why that's so popular. Although it is a chain, will recommend giving them a try if you haven't before.

The food was ok, but not great. I had buns with chicken, shrimp and pork. I also had chicken karage rice bowl. Everything was covered in some form of mayonnaise and served with iceberg lettuce. Not a big fan.

Food: OK, solid for US ramen. Nice to be able to get Hakata style. Broth was solid, presentation was lacking but not terrible. As lunch, this bowl of ramen did not leave me feeling disgusted at the amount of food and oil consumed, which I think is a failing in the world of ramen. It lacks the carefully put-together excess that should be present. Price: too high. Without adding the $4 egg, my $17 bowl of ramen was fairly simplistic and the portion size didn't feel like a serious indulgence the way ramen really should. I think this is one of the better options for ramen I've had in the bay, but as with most US ramen, the value is just not there and this value is worse than some other very solid I've had in the area. Atmosphere and Service: Nice, clean restaurant with attentive staff. The disposable chopsticks are cheap and do fray - not the end of the world. A few hand-trucks of ingredients came through the front at about 1pm - also not a big deal, but did have to interact with that on my way out. Overall very pleased with the atmosphere and service, no strong complains or issues. The Japanese menu wall art is a nice touch. Overall: For me personally, I probably won't come back, but if you're into the local ramen scene you'll probably enjoy this spot.

This was the second time I've been to this location and the first time was ages ago when it first opened. Service was prompt and the food was good. The standouts were the chicken karaage and Ramen. It was good and they did have a happy hour.

🍜 Karaka Spicy ramen was 3/5. It tasted like a savory nutty stew (not my favorite). Comparing this ramen to ichiran and Ramen Nagi this ramen reminded me of curry with ramen toppings. Noodles were too soft for my liking. -have to come back and try the other ramen flavors and see if I like them better. 🧆Karage not the best. Just ok. 🥟Bun medley was ok. Service nice and fast. Atmosphere: large space, nice and airy, comfortable to sit in big group.

Salty and greasy. Even adding warm water into the soup doesn’t help. Ordered the miso ramen. The miso paste seems not fully blended. Pickle is good tho.

Ordered a vegetarian ramen, received the absolute OILIEST dish I have had in my entire life (not an exaggeration). Unfortunately did not take a picture, but my ramen was DROWNING in oil, where there was a whole inch of oil floating on a top. When I told a staff member, they seemed very dismissive, telling me it was "normal" but not offering to help at all. I know aroma oil is a component of ramen dishes, but this was an extremely excessive amount, at least a whole ladle of extra oil on top, and this is coming from someone who orders ramen from places often! Flavor wasn't good either, cannot recommend.

The food was very disappointing. It tasted like they made my soup with alcohol and peanut butter, and the noodles were cold. The peppers tasted like they just took them out the bag and didn’t wash them off or anything and just started frying them.

My friend and I (two Asian women) visited this place when there were plenty of empty tables available. However, the waitress still seated us right in front of the restroom, which felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. The food was also very disappointing for the price. It lacked flavor and did not meet our expectations at all. Overall, the experience was not worth the cost, and I don’t think I would return.

I rarely leave reviews, but this meal was disappointing. The ramen was flavorless and served cold, and the meat was mostly fat with very little actual meat. The pork buns were also cold and had the same issue — fatty and just not good. The chicken karaage was the worst part. Don’t order it unless you want to regret it. It was plain nasty and overly fried. Overall, a really bad experience.

The food favor was bland, salty, and cold. The noodle was warm and all the sides were cold. There was no broth. The price does not match the quality of the food. First and last time at this place. For 4 people we spent $146.00 - 3 bowl of ramen, two sides, sushi (15 minutes wait), side of cucumber, 2 drinks. We ordered a side of broth and it was salty. So disappointed. 😔
