I ordered pork buns as an appetizer, which came in two and were served on a plastic taco holder. The buns are light and fluffy, with a hint of sweetness. The pork belly is char grilled on both sides. I believe they overdid it because it was burned and the meat was bit dry. It's bizarre how they cut the cucumber; it's thicker than the pork belly, and from afar, it seems that I'm eating cucumber buns. It is not worth it, and I would not recommend it.
The ramen appears pitiful. I wouldn't tell what's in the bowl because the contents are drowning in the soup. They need to work on the presentation. The pork belly is prepared similarly to the appetizer. The noodles were firm and chewy, and the boiled egg was cooked exactly such that the yolk was runny, just way I like it. The soup was average, and the flavor was linear; unfortunately, it tasted like instant noodle package.
I left feeling quite disappointed and wishing I could go somewhere else except this eatery. I promised myself that my dinner would be more filling than my lunch.
O… MY …. GOD.. they are the best hands down.. I’ve been to more than a hand full of Ramen places and this is the best one we’ve walked into. The menu have plentiful options and literally EVERYTHING we ordered was GREAT. Service was great and the food came out so quick. I can’t believe this is down the street from the house. I won’t be searching any longer, this place is home for me. Thank you and we sure will be back. O I wasn’t able to take photos of everything because one I started eating it was so good I forgot to take of the rest of the food. Very yummy.. you guys deserve all 5 stars.
Ramen has always been one of my comfort foods. Zen served that and love the broth. Our food specialist was kind and attentive.
I can't believe this Ramen place is 5 minutes away from my house! I ordered the pork buns and pork tonkotsu and every bite is amazing! The wait is a little bit long since they are short staffed but definitely worth it. Will come back again 💯.
This place is amazing! The staff is amazing and attentive as well! I ordered a veggie ramen and my brother ordered spicy pork. We both enjoyed our plates and I am excited to come back to enjoy another bowl with my significant other and friends!
