The menu is limited. We got the Mapo tofu mazemen, which is this brothless ramen with a Mapo tofu blend, mushrooms, eggplant, tofu, and doubanjian blended together. I wish we could see some of the distinct ingredients alone besides the tofu as it was a bit too blended for me. I liked how unique this ramen was!! The chicken karaage basket had the most addicting trio of sauces - yuzu mayo, nori ranch; and honey mustard. The yuzu mayo was so light and citrusy, and I could practically drink the nori ranch. The fries were shoestring and perfectly crispy. The issue lies in the chicken karaage - it almost felt burnt, and it was quite dry inside. The chicken age gyoza were yummy. I did love the crispness and the tangy kamikaze dipping sauce! Service is efficient!

Ramen was great. Tonkatsu ramen was delicious. Also ordered the bubble tea. Great quality drink.read more

This ramen is some of the most delicious and cozy ramen I have ever had. It is always so rich and creamy and comes with the best toppings. I have only gotten Tenka take out and they deliver it very quickly and efficiently (one tupperware for dry ingredients and one tupperware for the broth). I am so happy I have found such an amazing ramen place in the Twin Cities.

I've…read morebeen searching for a really good ramen place to crush my cravings and this is the first one i've tried in the Minneapolis area and my god did it do the trick! The tonkotsu broth was sweet, salty and so so flavorful. They give you two huge pieces of melt in your mouth pork belly, wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots, garlic, scallions, and what seems to be an endless amount of noodles. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Forgot…read moreto take a pic of the chicken because I dove right in but the pieces were huge and can be a meal in itself. It was very flavorful and juicy. The ramen was also yummy! It's been hard to find good ramen here for some reason and this one seems to hit the spot. There's a decent amount of food and a good chunk of pork. The egg was truly soft boiled and delicious. The broth is flavorful. Tip, mix everything before you eat it. I love the garlic in there as well!! Will definitely come back!!

The servers were attentive and we did not even need to use the call button. Food came out quickly, it was delicious. The broth is flavorful, they add in a good amount of extra ingredients. I love bamboo and the was plenty of it in the bowl. The egg was cooked perfectly. The noodles have a great chewy consistency. It was filling and I even got a to go container. The ramen was still good the next day, not soggy as you'd expect. They have cayenne pepper and some pickled peppers if you want more spice to the ramen. The bubble tea here is also really good, it's nice and easy to order with the kiosks they have. The overall atmosphere is very nice, makes you feel like you are in Japan, they even have the umbrella bags for rainy days!

The place is bright and clean, and they also have a few private rooms! I got the Combo A, which included tonkotsu ramen, a pork bao, and matcha dessert. The pork bao and matcha dessert were just okay but the ramen was rich and comforting. The noodles were not too soft, and the pork was tender and flavorful. It doesn't compare to ramen I've had in Japan or even LA but it hits the spot when I'm craving it!

I usually go for the shoyu ramen, it's richer than your typical tonkotsu and the soft-boiled egg is always seasoned to perfection. However, I just tried the Aburasoba (broth-less ramen) for the first time, and it was a total hit! The thick noodles mixed with those savory sauces create an incredible umami flavor that is so comforting. It's officially my new go-to dish. We don't have a ton of ramen options in Minnesota, so this is definitely a top-tier choice when you need a quick fix!

I went with the pork tonkotsu ramen and although it's one of the most basic dishes, I was very impressed with how this particular bowl was prepared.

The staff were very friendly too and even got a chance to chat with a few of the chefs. Definitely planning to come back again in the future!

Husband wanted sushi and I wanted ramen so we decided to try this place for best of the both world…read more We came around 1pm so there was a happy hour menu (selected smaller portion $5 appetizers and $13 sushi roll (not really cheap for sushi happy hour). Cream cheese - typical but kind of small Chicken Katsu- crunch outside and not dry inside Ramen- from the presentation, does not look creamy. It also did not taste creamy. Doesn't have the typical tonkotsu ramen taste I've had before. Broth is a little bland. The pork belly is basically pork belly and not the typically ramen chashu pork I'm used to. It was a disappointing bowl of ramen. Sushi- presentation wise, does not look fancy. The plating looks like what you would get at an all you can eat place. Per husband, it was decent good. As for me, based on ramen, I would not go back for that. Maybe next time I will give sushi a try but not sure if it's a god back to place. If you want $5 appetizers, it's worth a try. If you get happy hour sushi rolls for $13 each is not too bad but regular price is about $17 per roll (like dynamite roll.) Service was quick. Food came out in 10 mins or less but it was not busy when we went as well.

The space itself is clean, albeit a bit plain! It's not a huge space but we didn't have a wait at about 5:30pm on a Saturday! The servers were incredibly friendly and responsive during our entire stay. The food itself was good, yet nothing to write home about! We had our standard sushi order: wontons, gyoza, spicy tuna roll, California roll, and Philly roll! The wonton and Philly were my favorite, with good cream cheese to wonton ratio, and the lovely cream cheese bite in the roll! They did charge $1 for the side of eel sauce, which felt unnecessary for the serving size. Overall, not a bad spot if you're in the area and want some good sushi, but I wouldn't make a journey to check them out!
