Perfect shoyu and miso, good noodles — the best ramen, honestly perfect.
The broth is thick and satisfying but not too salty or heavy, the kind of place you come back to often.
The tonkotsu ramen is the best I've ever had, period — and the katsu sando blows my mind too.
The Tonkotsu Super Paitan was seriously delicious: rich, creamy broth and perfectly cooked noodles.
I got the tonkotsu with pork belly and it hit the spot — silky, full of flavor, hearty and satisfying.
The Super Paitan was incredibly well-balanced, exactly what you need for a soul-warming meal.
The miso was rich, comforting and deeply satisfying — exactly what the doctor ordered.
The chashu is super flavorful because they lightly roast it.
The shoyu ramen and the katsu don are amazing, and the kakuni is delicious.
Easily one of the best bowls I've had in the city, with a great, busy atmosphere and friendly, fast service.
