I have been wanting to try this spot for a while so I'm glad we took a walk over from the gallery. The inside is pretty tight quarters, but for me that adds to the experience. Food and service were amazing! I ordered the Tonkatsu Ramen (my all-time fave) with medium spice & a Sapporo beer. The broth was perfect, the Chashu pork was tender and they give you the perfect amount of noodles with the option to add more, of course. The broth cleared out any congestion i had leftover from our cold front! Definitely going spicier next time I dine in. TOTAL : for my ramen & beer it was about $35 - they give the XL size for beer btw

Delicious ramen that tastes authentic and homemade!…read more It's a small shop that's easy to walk past and miss. Once you enter, you order from the tablet screens on the wall. About 9 stools where you watch the chef prepare your ramen and eat at a counter. No fuss interior and service. If you prefer a quiet meal, this place is ideal. We ordered: - Oxtail Ramen which was very unique and tasty (we picked medium seasoning). Added bokchoy. Will order again. - Tonkotsu Ramen with added enoki. Not as creamy as I'm use to but you can tell all the ingredients are very fresh. For such a rich dish, I didn't feel heavy later on that night. We usually order extra ramen but didn't have to. The proportions were spot on and enough for a hearty meal. Total tab was around $65 after tip and tax. We came in around 7pm - no wait - and within 30 mins the whole place filled up.

It's an intimate experience as the restaurant seating is limited. We've been coming for years and always been huge fans. The pork buns are a must try, it tastes like they are smoking the pork belly which really elevated the flavor. The cucumber salad is a refreshing bite between the buns and the ramen. Take out or dine in the food is always top tier. I will say the service can be hit or miss depending on how busy they get, but that comes with a small mom and pop shop feel. Would recommend trying if you're a ramen fan. You won't regret it.

I tried their onigiri, seaweed wrapped around sushi rice and marinated contents, and it was tasty. Please try little bit of everything on their menu and let me know which one was your favorite.

On this particular Wednesday evening, we stopped by Lauderale Brewery (corresponding review to follow). For those not familiar, Wednesday night is trivia night, which always delivers solid school night entertainment. Lauderale is layed out with a large brewery/warehouse holding seating for around 80 and a length of bar,leading to an outdoor covered patio and stage, with additional seating in the adjacent gazebo area under umbrella picnic tables. I'm mentioning these details, because it was raining this November evening, which may have elevated my experience. After we lost trivia in typical fashion and enjoying countless rounds of my favorite current beer on tap, "Mr. Pickles", I set my eyes on the Kaminari Ramen trailer located between the stage and gazebo areas. There had been steady traffic flow all evening, the 8-10 item menu had a few things crossed off, after running out. For me, that is generally a good sign. To run out of things, usually means alot of people ordered. After quickly browsing the menu, the missing items didn't change my choice. I went straight for the top ramen dish, Tonkotsu. It had all the staples I look for on a rainy night in November. The chef took the time to explain they were out of bean sprouts, and confirmed fresh cabbage was an acceptable substitute. I agreed, she asked where I would be sitting, and told me they would deliver it shortly. I grabbed a picnic table with an umbrella, it was lightly raining, and the live band was starting their first set. A couple songs later, my ramen masterpiece was delivered to Janic Joplin's Piece of My Heart in poetic fashion. I was immediately blown away by the visual presentation. The broth held a creamy appearance, consistent with pork being poached in it during the cooking process. That milky liquid was the perfect backdrop to make the other ingredients pop. One half of a perfectly soft-boiled egg was positioned at twelve o'clock, a small pink star shaped fishcake poked out, followed by sliced green onion, the brightness pink pickled ginger, and fresh cabbage completed the clockwise plating. On the outskirts of the bowl, strips of braised pork and wavy noodles subtly lyed under the broth, peeking out here and there. First taste was just the broth with a couple green onion stowaways. A proper ramen is all about the broth. If you get that wrong, it doesn't matter what else you put in it. It was magnificent . The sweet, sour, bitter salty, umami all hit in perfect symphony. I dropped the spoon, out come the chopsticks, and the vibe leveled up instantly. I snatched a slice of pork, with a few noodles, onion, and a bit of ginger. The pork was perfectly cooked, but that pickled ginger stole the show! I tried to get a couple slivers in every bite from that point forward, switching between pork, fishcake, and soft-boiled egg. I proceeded to devour one of the top three bowls of ramen ever to grace my palate. Each bite better than the last, until only broth remained. Chopsticks retired, back to spoon, and BBB (bye bye broth). To put things in perspective, this may be my longest Yelp review to date, and it is about a single bowl of Ramen. I'm not sure if it was the Pickle sour beer traveling through my veins, the cold November rain (shout out GnR), the substitution of fresh cabbage over bean sprouts, the band as a backdrop, or just plain ol culinary mastery, but whatever it was, this bowl of ramen will not be forgotten. As midnight struck bringing the crowd into Thanksgiving together, I took a minute to be thankful for Lauderale hosting Kaminari, the folks that served me, the chef(s) that prepared the dish, and every person that had a hand in farming and harvesting the 20+ ingredients. Sometimes we take for granted the time and schematics involved in producing one bowl of ramen from a trailer, parked at a brewery, in a marine warehouse district, near Port Everglades, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the eve before Thanksgiving. All my problems seemed a little less problem-ie after taking my last sip from the bowl and swig of Mr. Pickles. I strongly recommend you track them down and have your own enlightened experience.
