My friend started off with the Geso Tempura (squid leg) and he loved it. I don't like squid so I can't comment on that. I got the Spicy Miso Ramen and it was absolutely the best ramen I've ever had. Coming from someone who doesn't really eat ramen (not a broth person, I'm working on it ) I will definitely be back for that. I removed the memna and the kikurage and added shiitake, spinach and chili oil. Also got a side of brussel sprouts and they were perfectly crispy and seasoned. 10/10. All the food came out hot but not scorching. Can't wait to go back!!

Great 5* option. My…read moretwo go-to options are the Gin Ramen with Beef Bulgogi or the Tan Tan Men with Spicy Minced Pork Marinated. Both have a pork broth. One is with egg noodles and the other wheat noodles. This time, I had the Gin Ramen. So, so good. Great flavors, toppings, and noodles. Spice it up if you want. The atmosphere is fun too. Always busy especially on weekend nights. They have a nice bar seating too. Small TV option always seems to have a game on. Definitely on my rotation for great places to dine. Give them a try. Let me know what you think!?

I will see sometime soon.

All the sushi I've eaten here (which is quite a lot, really) has been fresh and delicious. The portion sizes are good, and the prices here are very reasonable. Also the food is prepared quickly, and the servers/employees here are very attentive. The menu has a decent amount of variety. I almost always order sushi, but I went here once with a family member and we both ordered ramen instead, and the ramen is very good as well. The restaurant is clean, and it's a pretty nice and peaceful place to eat. It's not an upscale restaurant with giant chandeliers or thousand-dollar artwork or anything like that, but it's clear that the restaurant managers/staff care a lot about keeping the space clean and tidy. I've eaten lunch here so many times. Come to think of it, I've probably eaten lunch here more often than at any other restaurant in northern Virginia. I'm pretty happy to have a sushi place like this near my home.

However, I just happened to be in DC on a Wednesday evening after work, and decided to stop by. Best spontaneous decision I have ever made! I put my name down, and walked around the block for maybe 10-15 mins max. We were then called inside for a table. So really the wait was not bad at all. We even got to sit at the bar and watch the chefs prepare our bowl. I got the Spicy Tonkotsu ramen and it was to die for!! The broth was incredible and truly unlike any other broth I have had. So deep in flavor and the perfect amount of heat/spice. The chashu pork was so tender yet perfectly browned on the outside. If i was being hyper-critical, I would say that I wish the noodles were a bit bouncier. But that's just a person preference. But honestly this is my new favorite ramen place. I haven't been this satisfied with a bowl of ramen in a very long time! Highly recommend!

We arrived at 6PM, put our names down for a table of 4 and got seated around 8PM. The Food: Went with the Spicy Tonkatsu as my main and the Chicken Karaage as a appetizer. The ramen was pretty good. Broth was very flavorful and the noodles were cooked perfectly. The chashu pork wasn't as "melt in your mouth" as I expected, but it was still tasteful! the bowl overall was pretty good but the main thing that caught my attention was surprisingly the chicken karaage. The karaage was fried so nicely. Not oily, the batter was crisp just right and the chicken pieces were thick! Honestly the star of the show in my opinion. The Service: Service was great! Staff were pretty attentive all around. The only downside really was the wait times. The Atmosphere: Small space with an average amount of seating inside. A little tight but not a big complaint. Overall, a 4.5/5. The ramen is definitely worth a try. I'll be back again hopefully to try their other ramen selections. I'd go super early to get in line and put your name down on the waitlist. Definitely get the chicken karaage if you have the appetite for both!
