Caitlin Taylor: Super friendly service. Simple and very authentic menu. Tried the shoyu ramen with chicken + add egg and it was GOOOOOOD. Parking is just a bit difficult but will definitely be back.

Adrian Lopez: Spicy Tuna on Crispy Rice is some next-level deliciousness that you NEED to get on, regardless of what you’re ordering. Jalapeño slice brings it all together.
