I'm in here now writing a review while I'm finishing my food. The food is good and the decor/ layout of the out of this place is great. The service on the other hand for me was not all that great maybe it is because I didn't do the all you can eat option. I had to flag someone down to order drinks, then to order food, and to get the side dishes. One particular waitress Korean tall guy with glasses (I'm Asian so I can point out that he is Korean without being racist) was to me very rude. He threw the menu on the table and ignore us the whole time which is why he had to flag someone down to order our food. No one ever checked up on us the whole time we were there. Being a paying customer that always giving 22 percent tips (I know how it is to work for tips), today I feel like I shouldn't even tip at all but I will give 10 percent. Oh and I had to ask for the bill and to go boxes twice from another waitress but after 10 minutes I didn't get it. I actually had to go to the desk and ask for the bill and to go boxes and he was like oh I'll bring it to you. Overall the food was good but I'll rather go to the Korean house down the strip than here . First time here and I'm not going to come back. read more

He also gave us complementary sodas for our time there. Good time being there, if you are a first timer dining kbbq, highly recommend this place read more

I was disappointed in this restaurant. The small dishes were good but the meat was very fatty. The rice was mediocre and the mushrooms were inedible. And the price was very high for what we got. I would not return to this one and maybe not to any bbq. read more

Attentive wait staff, fresh cuts all you can eat meat, great ice cold beer and a relaxed atmosphere. Get the baby squid and the LA Short Ribs, you won't be disappointed. Also should note the delicious chili on the table! Delightfully satisfied after a long day of hiking. Will be back again! read more

SERVICE: there's a lot of waitstaff and a call button at each table. We ate on a Thursday night for dinner and were instantly seated. But during our meal our burner went out 3 times... they used tape (not duct tape, just scotch) to hold the switch in place but that was not cutting it. After it burned out second time I asked if we can just move tables since there were plenty open. Nope, the scotch tape was attempted again. FOOD: I love KBBQ and it is hard to compete with places like Gen or the ones in Oakland. This place has about ~10 varieties of meat, some options for veggies and seafood and sides like tofu soup or rice cakes. For $26.95/ person I would expect more for that price. Lemme break down what I thought: LA Galbi: huge thick pieces! Tasted decent Brisket: super fatty , I had to cut a lot off . Pork belly: Very thin for what is normally a thicker cut meat... after we cooked it it became thin and crispy like bacon. I like bacon but not what I wanted at the time Rice cakes: actual dukkboki (spicy rice cakes) would be $5 extra, so I ordered their plain rice cakes that came with the AYCE and asked for gojujang on the side. Had to be creative Tofu soup: this was ok and had lots of veggies. Shoulda asked them to make it spicy Corn cheese: served in a tin mini pie holder instead of a hot plate. Got the job done tho melting da cheese Also the table had finger steaks, non marinated ribeye and some other meats. I was full at that point and also buzzed from Soju and beer (the Hite is so good) but they probably tasted decent. THEY RAN OUT OF BULGOGI (and it was only 7pm) , so didn't get to try that. Sad. VIBE: really really clean interior, looks new. Lots of booth tables and even more tables in private rooms in the back. Overall, a decent place to go with a group of friends if you're craving kbbq and in the area. Just kinda pricy when you can get more for same price at other AYCE restaurants. read more

From the Business

History

Established in 2006.

Ohgane first opened in 2006 and quickly became one of the Bay Area’s pioneering Korean BBQ restaurants. At a time when Korean cuisine was still unfamiliar to many, Ohgane introduced locals to the bold, smoky flavors of traditional Korean barbecue. Focused on quality ingredients, authentic recipes, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Ohgane built a loyal following and helped shape the Korean dining scene in Northern California. Over the years, the restaurant expanded to four locations across the Bay Area, each continuing the legacy of providing delicious food and exceptional service. Known for its all-you-can-eat BBQ, house-made banchan, and signature marinades, Ohgane remains a beloved destination for both longtime fans and newcomers to Korean food. As one of the first to bring Korean BBQ to the Bay, Ohgane proudly continues to honor its roots while evolving with the tastes of the community it serves.

The spareribs tasted like pork candy. The brisket melted in my mouth. The sausage had that snap when you took a bite. When the West Oakland location closed I ate at the Old Oakland location twice. Both times I had two subpar meals. I was disappointed because the best BBQ I ever had was at Horn Barbecue in West Oakland. I wasn't sure if I was going to come back to Horn Barbecue again. What changed? I got an inKind app, which included a $25 reward. Also I decided to give the Lafayette location a try. The first time I came here was on a Saturday night in March. Beef ribs are available on Saturdays only, but when I got to the front of the line they were out. Also sold out was the beef sausage. What I ate consisted of large coleslaw, 1 lb of pork ribs, 1 lb of brisket, and cheddar sausage. My initial taste of the pork ribs reminded me of the experience I had at the West Oakland location. The brisket was moist and the cheddar sausage had the snap. The next time I came to back to this location was the following Saturday during St. Patrick's Day weekend at 11:00 AM. I wanted the beef rib. I was able to get a beef rib that weighed almost two pounds. In addition I decided to get a pulled pork sandwich. I am not a fan of pulled pork because it tends to be stringy and dry. At Horn Barbecue not only did I get a fatty portion of the pulled pork but also the drizzle of the BBQ sauce. As someone who hates pulled pork the pulled pork sandwich at Horn Barbecue is the best pulled pork I ever had. I was impressed with the pork ribs, beef rib, and pulled pork. What about the chicken? I came here on a weekday for half chicken. Maybe this is not fair but the best BBQ chickens I've eaten were in Hawaii. The half chickens I've eaten at Horn Barbecue are smoky and flavorful but not as juicy as the huli-huli chickens I ate in Hawaii. Even though I enjoyed my multiple visits at this location I couldn't give this place a 5-star rating because my first and only visit at original location was special.

How'dy ya'll?! *insert wave emoji* Well, partner, let me tell y'all 'bout this hidden gem called Ohgane Korean BBQ in the heart of Contra Costa County in Concord, California. First off, this place is like lookin' for a needle in a haystack, 'cause the entrance ain't on the street side. You gotta venture into the hustlin' & bustlin' Willow Park & Shop shopping center, but trust me, it's worth the hunt. Now, when it comes to parkin', there's ample parkin' that you won't need to park close to the restaurant, as you'll forsure thank me to make that trek back to your car to burn all those calories you've consumed from AYCE Korean BBQ! There's no need to fret 'bout your ride, amigo. I reckoned I'd be waitin' for ages on a Sunday night, but they got this nifty check-in system that shoots you a text message when your table's ready. Now, that's what I call smokin' efficiency. Now, the grub, for just $33.99 a head (Weekend Dinner Rate), it's a downright steal. The brisket, let me tell ya, it's sliced thinner than a rattlesnake's fang, makin' it easier than pie to grill up to perfection. The pork belly? Oh, my stars and garters! They got more seasonin' choices than a cowpoke's got boots, and it's melt-in-your-mouth tender. That bulgogi, too, it's sliced as thin as the last straw in a tumbleweed, makin' it a breeze to cook up. But here's the kicker, partner - the sides. From cheesy corn to French fries in a Korean BBQ joint, well, that's like findin' a unicorn in a rodeo. They sure know how to keep you on your toes. They also got fresh, handmade tortillas, if that's your thang - definitely got that inspiration from the various social media platforms! Now, when it comes to service, they're quicker than a hiccup. They're at your table faster than a jackrabbit on a hot skillet, bringin' your orders in a jiffy. And let's not forget the drinkin' options - Korean beer and soju, it's like they're sayin', "Y'all just relax and enjoy the ride." The place itself, it's big as a prairie, so you won't be squished like a sardine in a can. They also got that sorta-private back room in the way, way back, for bigger parties! And trust me, you can bring a cake & have the wait staff hide it 'til you let 'em know to bring it out & bring the life of the partay to the birthday celebratin' individual! LOL. Now, let me leave you with this one, partner: you'll be smellin' like BBQ for weeks after hittin' up Ohgane Korean BBQ, and trust me, that's a good thing! Yeehaw! read more

When in doubt, pace yourself at Ohgane in Concord! Never have I felt so full that I still wanted to order more food. Call it a craze or just pigging out, but It's cold outside, and it's time for me to get into hibernation mode! Depending on how hungry you are, you have the option of picking something from the restaurant menu or going for the All You Can Eat (AYCE) BBQ or Hot Pot options. My group's chosen fare was the AYCE BBQ pick! We were all semi starving going in and felt Korean BBQ would suit our hungers perfectly. We began our first course with banchan (small side dishes including kimchi), followed with a bowl of salad, rice and rice tea (on the house). Then came an order of 3 meats; prime ribeye, LA short rib and spicy pork belly. By the last meat call at 2200, we had ordered every meat at least once, some triple, especially on the prime short steak which came out really well even when it was overcooked. A disclaimer at the bottom of the AYCE menu read an extra $10 fee would be charged for anyone's leftover food. No leftovers for our hungry hungry hippo appetite! Come time when you decide to eat AYCE Korean BBQ, make sure to bring lots of hungry mouths. Since I came with friends, we were able to order all the meats and some seafoods multiple times, so that was exciting! In addition, their potstickers were also really good! Overall, food was delicious but a little pricey at $29/ person after taxes. Waiters were prompt in bringing anything we asked for. They were very nice and adamant about having you try new things. Just a FYI from something I learned after my first visit: once you enter, promptly sign yourself onto the waiting list clipboard located sitting on the ledge of the circular foyer wall in the entryway. You'll see the clipboard when you walk in. Ohgane is my new favorite pick for best Korean BBQ in the East Bay! Ohgane was recommended to me by a friend and also a recommendation I can now make to anyone who's reading this and might want to give AYCE Korean BBQ a try. I'd definitely come back! --------------- --------------- Overall rating: 9/10 wait time was about 30 minutes and so worth it Water quality: 8.5/10 read more

The food was okay, typical for a Korean BBQ restaurant in Concord, California. However, the banchan was lackluster and unappetizing, and the meats and seafood didn't seem fresh. This was especially disappointing considering the price we paid for the all-you-can-eat menu for four adults. We initially didn't want the all-you-can-eat option, but the regular menu had limited choices, leaving us with no alternative. This was frustrating because two of us don't eat large portions. The most disappointing aspect was the service from the main waiter, who appeared to be Korean. He was unfriendly, didn't smile, and seemed to dislike his job. While taking our meat order, he gave us a mocking look, and his overall demeanor made us feel uncomfortable. The other staff members were much nicer, and we wished they had assisted us instead. Unfortunately, the main waiter took orders for most tables, making it difficult to avoid him. We won't be returning due to the rude service and subpar food quality, which is especially disappointing considering we are also Asian. It would be nice for fellow Asians to show more kindness towards each other. I hope this individual finds happiness and a more fulfilling career. As a side note, this restaurant is located near Tang Jip, another Korean restaurant in Concord. Additionally, we visited recently during the California heatwave, and the restaurant's air conditioning was insufficient, making the space uncomfortably warm. Fans would have been a more effective solution. The poor ventilation further exacerbated the issue. read more

Ohgane Korean BBQ is a great place to go for a delicious and authentic Korean BBQ experience. Here are some things I liked: The food: The meat was high-quality and well-marinated, and the side dishes were plentiful and flavorful. I especially enjoyed the bulgogi and the spicy pork. The atmosphere: The restaurant has a casual and inviting atmosphere, making it a great place to go with friends or family. Watchout for the smokiness cause air ventilation can be an issue. The service: The staff was friendly and attentive, however, they are busy and make sure you grab them. Overall, I had a great experience at Ohgane Korean BBQ and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good Korean BBQ restaurant. Food isn't amazing, but definitely has great options. I do prefer the one in Oakland for quality of food, especially meat, but the one in concord is safer. Here are some additional tips: Make sure to make a reservation, as Ohgane can get busy, especially on weekends. Be prepared to wait for a table, as there can be a bit of a wait, especially during peak hours. If you're not sure what to order, the staff is happy to make recommendations. read more

Terrible service!!!! We waited 5-6 mins and the server finally walk up to us with no greeting no smile, I told he we have 2 he didn't even reply he turns around and walked away, we were not sure if we should follow him or wait. After he walked to a table he turns around the waived as us when we got to the table the table has the napkin and chopstick setting ready but the table itself was very dirty not wipe clean, server wiped it with a dry paper napkin and I could see it still dirty not u wiped it with my napkins and drinking water. Waited another 5-6minutes no menu was brought to us, my husband got up and grabbed menu from the next table. Even when he came to take order he doesn't ask if you are ready or what you like he just stood there and says nothing... I have come here numerous times, this is the worst service that I ever had.... There are lots of Korean Restaurant near by I don't have to give my business to a place that does not appreciate their customer. read more

MY AFRICAN AMERICAN BROTHERS and SISTERS. ******************************* I finally learned from my past experiences with eating here. THIS PLACE IS NOT FOR "WE" its for "THEM" I am absolutely DISGUSTED any the mistreatment. It's not the first time , second or third time. It's ALL THE TIME!! On every occasion I have experienced RACISM at this business. ITS NOT A PLACE FOR "US" to spend our money. Today I peacefully walked out to never return here again. I can't even go into details about it , it's so upsetting. The owners , managers and employees have been taught how to treat "us" this is fact because every encounter has been the same. JUST DONT GO !!! We deserve better than how they think they can treat US !! Hopefully they won't be around much longer git'da fuk outta here. Yes , I said , what da fuk I said.

Therefore lack of respect Black people that enter their community of restaurants sexually profile and antagonizing people about their order and not explaining their service to the restaurant and a lack of fresh food has been served and a poor judgment of calling people broke, and I know you don't have no money, even though we have great credit and money, just the lack of respect is not giving there they are really dirty, rude disrespectful and lie and said they don't have any tables ready right next to the trash of other people Was willing to tell us to get out their store because you're broke and you don't have no money to pay for your food that was not never the case.

I have been looking for ayce kbbq for a while. Being in the contra costa region, there really isn't much until I discover ohgane. The wait wasn't long. Then again, I came at 6pm. The bbq tables are on the side of the restaurant. I think the middle roll are for people not having ayce? I am not sure. First thing I notice when I walked through the door is the smell of all the meaty goodness!! The meat selection is good, lot of choices and also includes seafood! For $26.95 a person, it really isn't bad. The service is quick and our server, Jay, is super nice. He asked us whether we are first timer, and told us about free drinks if you write a yelp review! I will definitely come back again. read more

Ohgane Korean BBQ has never disappointed me - it's my ultimate go-to for a fantastic Korean BBQ meal. The succulent brisket is always my order of choice, and the array of fixings they offer perfectly complements the meats. The flavors are consistently amazing, and the interactive grilling experience adds to the fun. When I'm in the mood for top-notch Korean BBQ, Ohgane is undoubtedly where I'll be heading. The only downside is that this place gets busy often, so sometimes I have to wait a long time before getting seated. But that's only a testament on how good this place is. With that said, I recommend to come early or during off-peak hours. read more

My best friend had just come back from traveling away for awhile and to celebrate her return we decided to have Korean bbq. Ohgane is honestly the best place I've been to so far. The food was so wonderfully prepared and brought out to us in a timely manner. The service was kind and frequently checked on us which made us feel as though they really cared for us and wanted to provide us with the best customer service. If I had to pick another place to have a celebration. Ohgane would definitely be the best place to go to. If I could give a higher review I would! read more

The brisket was all frozen fat pieces unevenly shaved and completely melted on the grill leaving the tiniest of speck for us to share not to mention the huge flame flare ups that happened frequently bc of that. (See photos) The finger ribs were chewy as heck and the squid had a funky bitterness to it. I will say portion sizes are bigger than most places but keep in mind their website states they charge for leftover meat. The banchan was good and i like the fact they put the sauces/pepper salt on the table but overall I dont think I will be returning. read more

We usually go to Gogitime in Oakland but since we live in Walnut Creek we had to try the spot out and have been back 3 times ever since one item that surpasses the competitive places is their abundant selection or meats, our favorite is the pork neck and your condiments to cook with, we have had Zoey twice as our server on separate visits and she has always been helpful, attentive and accommodating to our family requests. We love this place and come here at least once a month since we discovered this venue. read more

Came here for a graduation celebration, and was surprised with the tentative service we received, and the great tasting meats at the evening buffet time. Price is very reasonable for the amount of 'all you can eat' food. And for that price it's quite fair considering you could eat your weight in meats and still pay their buffet price. Awesome! And our server Zoey was quick to our requests, and had a great attitude as well as checked up on us frequently. Will most definitely be coming back! :) read more

I had an amazing experience at this Korean restaurant. The service was top-notch; the waitstaff made sure we were comfortable without being overbearing. The food was simply outstanding, especially the galbi and the spicy seafood soup, which were both bursting with flavor. The ambiance was a beautiful blend of contemporary and traditional elements, with intricate woodwork and subtle Korean accents. It felt like a perfect escape, offering both a rich dining experience and a soothing environment. read more

This place is great! the waiters are very helpful especially Zoey!! The food and service is good! It seems like a much better improvement compared the last owners who had this location. The one problem I have with this place is that sometimes they forget your orders so you keep asking them for the thing that you wanted and then they bring out 3 orders of it 10 minutes later. Other than that, I love this place! Definitely come with a group of friends and enjoy the time! read more

Toataly one of the best Korean Restaurants I've been to. Specially for a cook your own food place. You need to try the steak if you wanna listen to me. Went here on a cousin in laws bday and everything was good. If you were to listen to me this is one of the perfect places for a party to eat at. Coustumer service is pretty fast. It's like your playing a game of kahoot and you click a awnser faster than a seckond. So overall this place deserves more than 5 stars. read more

If you want delicious all you can eat korean bbq, this is the place. For one it's all you can eat period. No tiered menu where you can only get the good stuff for the most expensive price. Secondly, they don't make you wait longer and longer to slow down your eating experience. All the meat was seasoned well and they offer a bunch of sides you can choose from. Service was great, our server Steven was super attentive and prompt. Will definitely come again. read more

Our group called in at 8:30 pm and asked what time the kitchen closed. We were informed at 11-11:15 pm depending on the customers. 3 out of 8 of us got there at 10:30 pm. They were refused serviced and said the kitchen was closed. The manager were arguing and the servers and bus boys were laughing. I have never been to a place that treats their customers like this. I'm still in awe. read more

Our group ordered the 2 meat/2 soup special for 4 persons and it was definitely enough food for our group. The short ribs were excellent and I even enjoyed the soups (not sure what they're called, but one was pork and one was beef). Excellent service throughout and the place was very busy. Parking could be a challenge depending on the time of day as it's shared with other merchants.

Something against Filipinos? Or me? Did I do something wrong? I ordered bibimbap and so did my dad. My sister got tofu soup. My mom was sharing soup with her. It was obnoxiously loud because there was a birthday being celebrated at the table in the middle (not the staff's fault but maybe this got on the staff's nerves?) I asked for 1 refill of the side dishes. 1. Waitress gives us a refill. So that's the initial set of side dishes and 1 refill. As my dad goes up to the back portion of the restaurant to pay, I ask for another refill of side dishes. Lady with shorter hair says, "no." with a stern look of disgust. I go, "uhh..okay." Really weird, that's never happened before, ever. My sister and mom left a few minutes prior and got their tofu soup to go because of how loud it was--we weren't done with our meal they just wanted to get out of there. If the soup was still on the table and all 4 of us were sitting down, would she still have said no? We then left a $5 tip (I wanted to give $0 actually after what just happened). As I left the table and went out the door, I saw the waitress looking at our table from the back where you pay, she was checking to see if we even left a tip (because my dad didn't put a tip on the bill as we like to leave cash tips). Just all around bad vibes. I very rarely give 1 star reviews. Actually the food here is unfortunately phenomenal, so if you've never had a bad experience here go ahead and continue eating here it's great. Food portions are terribly small for the price you pay. It's a flat out rip off for the cost. Maybe if their service was good it would justify the cost, but their service as described above, despicable. I know my thoughts are all over the place but I'm a bit rattled still at what just happened. I finished eating there 7:48pm, it's 8:03pm as I'm typing this on my phone in the car while the memory is fresh. That's how irked I am. They did not refill our water or ask to refill our water until I asked, and I only asked once. I saw they asked other tables if they wanted refills of water. That, plus the side dish refill and the short haired lady who's probably the owner saying no? I never want to come back. I felt disrespected, unappreciated, and felt racially profiled like because I'm Filipino she didn't like our kind there or something. The vibes were really off. I'm never coming back here voluntarily. At least that's how I feel right now. My experience, 0/5. The food, unfortunately 4/5, Score: 1 star because that's the lowest I can give it. Expect to see this review on here, Google, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and TikTok. To the owner / waitress who didn't give me refills on the side dishes, if you're reading this: didn't think I'd go this far to share my experience did you? The angry side of me hopes you lose business. The more peaceful side of me hopes you read this, think about what you did and if it was right, and think about your customer service and making people that come to your establishment and paying you to eat your food, happy. Because the look you gave when you said, "no." When I asked for the refill of side dishes, you might as well have spit on my face. That's how it felt. If you feel no remorse over this incident, then I wish poorly on your business, but I doubt this review will affect your profits. Good bye. Never again.

We walked in just after 4:30pm and it was already pretty busy. One of the server greeted us, and we were promptly seated in a booth. The interior was clean. Several wall mounted TVs were showing different programs. The same server quickly brought us water and menus. After some deliberation, we decided to order several items from both their regular and happy hour menus - two 3-item bento boxes, teriyaki chicken plate, and several rolls (tempura, spicy tuna, and CA). The rolls and teriyaki chicken plate were first up. For happy hour items, they didn't skimp on anything. The rolls were freshly made and had an excellent rice to filling ratio. The teriyaki chicken was nicely grilled and delicious. The 3-item bento boxes arrived soon after. All the kitchen items were very good. The teriyaki beef was surprisingly tender, and the tempura had a nice variety of vegetables. As for the sashimi, it was fresh and thickly cut. I was very pleased with both the quality and quantity. I tried some of the food from my brother's bento boxes. It was delicious as well. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and we received good service from them. The total, with T/T, was just under $100. For the amount of food we got, I thought it was very reasonable. Their popularity is not without merit. If you decide to come here, you can expect a good dining experience in a comfortable setting that won't break your bank. Give this spot a shot! 5 stars. BONUS MATERIAL: - Check out the happy hour menu that I posted. It's definitely a great deal. - Ample parking on site.

Ozora Sushi Restaurant

Hidden inside Oak Grove Plaza, Ozora Sushi is a true gem for sushi lovers…read more One of the things that keeps me coming back is that they occasionally offer bluefin tuna and, if you're lucky, toro sashimi. The only catch is that both can sell out quickly, so it pays to arrive early. The Jaw Roll, which features bluefin tuna, is one of my absolute favorites. "Delicious" does not do it justice. Even on days when the bluefin is unavailable, there is no need to worry because the menu is filled with excellent options. I have yet to try a roll here that disappointed me. The garlic edamame is another standout appetizer, though fair warning: you'll be protected from vampires for at least a day afterward. It is packed with garlic and absolutely worth it. For dessert, the fried banana with vanilla ice cream is the perfect way to end the meal. The restaurant has plenty of tables, though a short wait is common during busy times. In all my visits, I have never waited more than about ten minutes. Because Ozora is so popular, it can get a little lively and noisy during peak hours, but never to the point where I have had trouble carrying on a conversation with the people dining with me. To me, the buzz is simply a sign that this place has built a loyal following. Overall, Ozora Sushi is one of those reliable neighborhood spots that consistently delivers great food, friendly service, and a dining experience that keeps me coming back.

I recall a time when sushi restaurants were closed the same days of the week (usually Mondays) but it's nice that they've changed that as well. Service is good, the tables are always clean, we've always been able to walk in with virtually no wait even when it looks very busy. Compared to the other sushi restaurants downtown, it's significantly easier to park here and I feel like because it's not in the center of town, it's better value.

She's attentive, answered any questions I had, and informed be on certain dishes the whole time I stayed. I decided to get the Shrimp Mandoo as my appetizer and the mini Bulgogi with a Banana Milk. The Shrimp Mandoo was good, but nothing to really rave about. It's the only Mandoo that can only be pan-fried, but the crunch was fun! The banchan was varied. The kimchi is more on the sour/bitter side, so sorry to the sweet kimchi fans. As a solo diner I was particularly worried about the food proportions for the mini Bulgogi. I have a hearty appetite but even I have limits. The proportions were actually perfect and if you're a fan of lettuce, the Bulgogi comes with so much. I throughly enjoyed the savory Bulgogi! It was tender and clean to eat. Overall, I would definitely come by again!

And their offering of spicy tonkotsu ramen sounded so good, sooo I decided to get that. I ordered it online and arrived at the 'promised' time for my order to be ready, but I ended up having to wait another 10-15 minutes at the restaurant, which wasn't ideal :( However, I have to say that I was really happy with the ramen. I also really loved how they packaged the ramen for takeout. They separated the broth from the spicy sauce and from the noodles along with all of the toppings, which I really appreciated. The noodles were nothing to write home about because they felt and tasted just like regular egg noodles that you could get from an Asian grocery store and boil at home. However, I thought the pork bone broth was really good. The broth was really creamy and thick, and it had a really great flavor. As for the toppings, I loved the inclusion of corn, bamboo shoots, green onions, and wood ear mushrooms, but what really sold the whole thing for me was the pork chashu slices!! I saw very prominent grill marks on the pork slices and was honestly skeptical at first, not knowing for sure whether or not they were real grill marks. But upon tasting them, I could really taste the char flavor, which I really enjoyed! I also thought the spicy sauce was really amazing. It wasn't just chili oil or anything like that. Instead, it was more like a thick spicy miso paste, which was so perfect to dilute and combine with the broth. Overall, I thought it was really tasty. I would definitely get this again in the future.
