We went to this place because of its popularity in Japan. There is usually a line and a wait especially on the weekend. The wait is about an hour, but came wait-list on Yelp. I recommend going early or during the early weekday.
Highly recommend the ramen with dipping sauce. It is delicious!
Really Good dipping ramen! Always a line to get into this place! Shows how popular it is. Get there early and enjoy !
Ok I'm partial to soup specially Ramen. The broth is delicious and the noodles are spot on. The dining room is well appointed and can be either nice or casual. Thank goodness they're not close to my house or I would go broke eating there all the time.
Waiting in line about 1 hour to get in, until now, still have to wait probably the same amount of time. I won't say 100% worth wait, coz I personally not a big fan of thick noodle. I prefer the dip noodle which is the most popular one here. Don't forget to order daikon soup after, it will pour into the source, after mix it well, it will become soup.
I am sure this place is good since the line to eat here is insanely long but I couldn’t say that I enjoyed this type of Japanese ramen. I am not sure which style is this ramen but you get a bowl of dry noodle with meat, eggs, etc. and you are supposed to dip them into the soup that comes on the side... it was a bit weird and soup was quite salty. The two apps we ordered are good though. I think I would still recommend this place to other to try, at least it’s an interesting experience and the ingredients were fresh and tasty, just not my cup of tea.
