The servers were very nice and informative when I asked questions. I started with the pork gyozas. They were juicy and the sauce was nice. I got the tonkotsu ramen with chicken and tofu.

I will definitely be ordering this again. 10/10

Ambiance The environment was very relaxing, although definitely small. Food We ordered the Mentaiko Chicken Tonkatsu as well as the Chicken Wonton Soup ramen. The soup did not come out as hot as we would have liked, it felt like it was just warmed. Although the chicken wonton soup came with a clear broth, we felt that it was oily. The actual chicken wontons had a good flavor and texture. The dish was simple but was sufficient. The mentaiko chicken tonkatsu ramen felt like it lacked depth despite being a tonkatsu broth. Although, the chicken that topped the dish was very flavorful and seemed to be marinated well. The noodles were the classic texture and the topping for me felt standard. Service Our waitress was nice, but it definitely felt a bit understaffed and we were forgotten about (I don't blame her since we were taking our time with the menu).

It contains chicken, green onions, red pickled ginger, carrots, lettuce, broccoli and a mild, savory sauce. They have a chili flakes/pepper on the side if you want to make your meal spicy.

Normally, ramen places has a special scent mixed of steamed broth and fried food. I'm impressed! Great ventilation - trust me, you would want to be isolated with your specialty dish. Enjoy!

The beef in the ox shoyu was soft and the chicken in the chicken miso ramen was also flavorful. My complaint about the broth in general is that it is salty, but honestly most ramen places are like that. To me the broth was more of a dipping sauce than soup, I found it too salty to drink directly. Service: I had wanted to order the vegetarian ramen for the toppings and sub the vegetarian broth for the beef but "no substitutions allowed" which I think is kind of ridiculous because ramen is literally put together with broth, noodles, and toppings. It is dead simple to make a substitution of broth but...oh well. The nice touch was the small Japanese chocolate wafer given with the bill.

You can tell they take pride in what they're serving. We tried a couple rolls and they were balanced--not just drenched in sauce to cover up mediocre ingredients. Portions felt fair for the price, and the menu has enough variety that you can keep coming back without getting bored. It's also a cozy, intimate little spot--perfect for a low-key sushi night. Service was friendly and attentive without hovering, and the timing between dishes was solid.

This Tonkotsu ramen is possibly the worst I have ever tasted. The pork broth lacked depth and character and aside from the Ajitsuke, the noodles, a few green onions, and a single dried seaweed leaf (nori) that was the dish. I was surprised that even the ramen was cooked incorrectly. Fortunately, the Thai Ice tea was enjoyable, as my taste buds became irritated from the excessive salt. I gave the experience a two star only because the service was nice. I had en emergency with my iPhone and I was allowed to charge it, so as far as customer service that was good.

We left my brother‑in‑law's number and walked over to Nordstrom Rack to browse while we waited, especially since it was raining that day. We eventually received a text that our table was ready, but when we returned, we were asked to wait an additional 10 minutes because the guest occupying part of the table had paid but hadn't left yet. The staff eventually asked him to move to another table so they could combine the space for our group, and once that was sorted out, we were finally seated. Ordering was straightforward. I chose the extra‑spicy ramen combo with a pork bun. Unfortunately, we were informed that their fryer was broken, so none of the fried items were available, which was disappointing. Still, the food arrived in a reasonable amount of time, and the ramen absolutely delivered. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles were perfectly cooked, and all the toppings tasted fresh. My sister‑in‑law had recommended this place, and she was right, the ramen really is excellent. The only downside to our visit was an interaction with one of the servers. When we asked for extra napkins after my son accidentally spilled his water, she smirked at us in a way that felt dismissive and unprofessional. Her attitude left a negative impression, and I wish we had been assisted by someone else. Overall, the quality of the ramen saved the experience. If the service had matched the food, this would have been an easy five‑star visit. As it stands, the ramen is good enough that we might return, but if not for that, this would likely have been our last visit.

My husband ordered Shoyu on Fire Ramen with chicken. The Blaze lacked the usual rich flavor of the pork broth and wasn't as creamy as usual.

It was surprising given it was a chicken-based stock.
