Japanese Curry
Paula D.

I was intrigued and decided to give this place a try. I ordered the Japanese Curry. So disappointed. Chicken katsu on top was hard and dry. Curry tasted like packaged gravy. It's a big portion but I ate just a little and threw the rest away. But, the dessert was delicious. Loved the cheesecake and milk buns. The mango smoothie was good as well.

So I've been really curious about this place, and decided to give it a try today! This is based on food and drink only! I ordered the Cha-Chu Ramen and Lavender Passionfruit Tea. The Ramen was so disappointing, and underwhelming! Honestly, one of the worst I have ever had! They didn't even serve with a Ramen egg, but a hard boiled egg! The pork belly was OK, but you only got a few green onions and a couple of fish cakes. The broth was flavorless, so thank goodness they had shichimi spice to add some flavor. As far as my tea, I could not taste the lavender whatsoever. I skipped the Boba as the drink was already $7.50 and they wanted $.75 more for Boba? Yes, there were a few pieces of fresh fruit in the tea, but $8.25 to get a drink here with Boba, ridiculous! Everything is served in plastic, which I am not a fan of, and they don't even have soup style spoons for the Ramen! They have a few tables, and a few counter seats, but definitely not a nice place to sit down and enjoy your food! The store has a good selection of Japanese/ Korean candy and snacks. Lots of Hello Kitty, and anime merch, that I know my great nephew would love! They did have some unique items in the dessert case which I may stop in to try one day, but as far as their food and drinks, it's a pass! I was thanked when I left, and the gal was on top of cleaning tables, but really nothing special. With a $2 tip, my disappointing Ramen and tea came out to $27.02! Ridiculous!!! When my great nephew is in town, I'll might bring him in, as I think he would love the candy and merch, but until then, this is definitely a pass for me!

Was on the lookout for matcha, so found this place via a Yelp search. The decor of this place is so Japanese anime/cartoon eclectic and 100 percent kitschy awesome! The shelves - from floor to ceiling were covered in trinkets, sweet and savory Japanese snacks GALORE, ramen packets, drink boxes, paraphernalia, and more. Two big kiosk screens to order from, or, when it's not busy or you can't decide (me!), the front register is also an option. I went with a classic: Matcha Milk Tea with extra tapioca pearls. The bubble tea was decent, not sure if it's quite "the best" matcha I've had. I got it cold, and forgot to say "no ice", so I always feel that's a lot of the culprit when it comes to a watered down flavor. I did nab a few sweet treats to take share with the fam: A slice of their Crepe Cake and a homemade Hokkaido Milk Buns. The crepe cake melted from the sun's rays (yes, I even had the cold A/C on blast!), but was still delightfully enjoyable! The milk buns were also good. Not quite as light and airy bun as Tous Les Jour, but a very close second place. If I could pick up this store and move it back home to Ohio, boy oh boy would I be a loyal customer, wanting to try so many interesting snacks and ramen offers, haha!

I came in February and was super excited to try this place out it looked so cute from the pictures. Unfortunately the day we went the guy that was there that day informed us that due to an emergency he wasn't able to make us drinks or anything else since he was just filling in. I think he said he worked across the street at the ramen shop?? (But I'm not 100% sure) It was a little disappointing that we couldn't try any of the drinks we wanted but he was really nice & funny that kind of made up for it. He did make us a Thai & Taro milk tea since they're pretty basic drinks. I definitely want to come back when we're in town to try the stuff on their menu. I really appreciate it when people take the time to give you a really good customer service experience regardless of the circumstances. My 5 stars are solely based on the interaction alone.

Chicken Karage Ramen and Passionfruit Boba Tea
Lance T.

The atmosphere is really amazing here. I got the chicken karage ramen and it's out of this world good. The broth has great flavor and the chicken has a bit of spice and wonderful texture. The boba tea is passionfruit with lychee boba. So good!

Came here to get a Smoko Snail light and thought they were sold out but I found one hiding! Hidden gem for sure. Their boba is SUPER soft and the drinks we got were really yummy!

So good! The boba is amazing and there's so many options for little treats. The service was amazing and the staff are so friendly

Banana popsicle!

After making the drive up north from the Valley this afternoon, we were a hungry little family! Instead of stopping by one of the usual spots here in town, I checked Yelp and came across this fun and unique little Japanese joint. I can't lie, it took some convincing to get the wife on board, mostly because she's always concerned our picky toddler won't eat anything on the menu. But reminding her that our hearts belong to Tokyo and that if the food was even half as good as the pics in the reviews looked, we would be in very good shape! Plus, although noodles fall behind Dino nuggies in the eyes of our precious baby boy, he can throw down on them if he's in the right mood. Well Dad finally did something right, because this family of 3 was all smiles and slurps as we devoured our food, forcing ourselves to stop eating before joining the clean plate club, knowing the leftovers tomorrow will be equally as fantastic! The super sweet lady behind the counter was helpful and hospitable, and the vibes of this amazing place were immaculate. So much to look at and shop for while the mouthwatering food is prepared, and the options for sweet treats after your meal were endless and far from typical. My son and I indulged in Japanese banana popsicles and they did not disappoint! Yes, this place is small and easy to pass by without noticing, with its unassuming location, but GO HERE and try it. You'll be thrilled you did

This afternoon I went to visit this new boba shop that opened up a few months ago. I got a horchata boba & it was pretty good, very sweet. I liked the decor inside however it's a bit overwhelming as it's everywhere. The lady who serviced me was very kind. I think in the areas such as the food display they should leave it clear of decor because it's hard to focus on the food rather than the jewelry above it.

Great food and service for a quaint spot. My grandson enjoyed as he recently moved to AZ from Tokyo. A few flavors from home.

food was not very good and very pricey. Boba tasted bland and flavorless. The store overall felt very unwelcoming.

FOOD - Bibimbap: rice topped with beef, carrots, mushrooms,…read morespinach, jicama, and scrambled eggs. So good and filling! It came with my favorite banchan (kimchi, fishcake, and cucumber salad) and soup. 4.5/5 - Beef Bulgogi Bowl: beef and steam veggies. These also came with the same banchan and soup. 4/5 - Korean Fried Chicken: so crispy! It came with a side of gochujang (chili paste) and ranch. 4/5 SERVICE: There was quite a wait but the service was fast and friendly. 4/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I would come back. I love a good mom and pops!

Beware, food is ok but this place is not kid friendly and the owner is incredibily rude. I have…read morebeen to thousands of restaurants but this one left us the worst impression. Food is ok overall 4/5 (Tofu seafood soup: 5/5, omurice 4/5, spicy chicken soup 4/5, Bibimbowl 4/5 but I wouldn't say it was special. We had a toddler with us and had a stroller which could fold into a much smaller piece less than the size of a chair. The place was almost empty when we walked in. As soon as the owner (I assumed) saw us walking in, she gave us a super unfriendly almost impolite look, told us to fold the stroller. Then we were about to fold it, she told us "no no no, you have to put it in your car". There was no sign about stroller anywhere and the restaurant was almost empty. I was ok w it, folding it and walked back to leave it in my car. I told her we had 4 and a baby. She gave us a table for 4 then told us why didn't I told her sooner that we had 5 people. We helped our toddler to drink water but she liked to drink water from the cup directly and not through a straw and shook her head a bit. The owner scolded us why not having her drink water lol Then my toddler was drinking water from the cup directly as she always does. The owner scolded us. Yes, scolded. She told us close the lid and have her drink the water from the straw. At this point, I wanted to leave but because we already ordered. We didn't want to be impolite... My friend ordered an omurice and kimchi soup. When the food is out, the owner looked at her with a weird look shaking her head thinking she eated too much. Lol. She was smiling to other Caucasian customers while always judgemental and somehow unhappy to our group (Asian people) although we were polite and followed her directions the whole time. Last but not least, 18% of tip was automatically included in our bill.

We live about an hour away past Sedona and will happily drive in to get a delicious sushi meal. The nigiri is fresh and so tasty. One roll we had we disliked because it was topped with pesto, but I'm sure others may like it. I'm more into traditional Japanese flavors. Chicken Kara age appetizer was yummy too! Cool environment. It's not too loud and plenty of elbow space. Cool looking full service bar with bar seats. Service was okay. She was friendly and fast but I disliked how we didn't receive a printed receipt before paying. I should've spoken up but now I know to ask since it's not just provided, then pay with my card. I don't even know if the bill was right. That's the only thing that left a bad taste in my mouth.

The restaurant offers a good variety of ramen flavors along with a wide selection of sushi, sashimi, and side dishes. The space is quite large and clearly very popular. Even though the restaurant was busy, the staff remained friendly and attentive. We visited later in the evening and were able to get a table without difficulty, but it was easy to see how lively the place can be. The ingredients tasted fresh overall. I ordered the jalapeño ramen; the jalapeños themselves were over-charred, but otherwise the dish was well prepared. While I wouldn't necessarily come with expectations for authenticity, it's a solid and satisfying stop if you're looking for Japanese-style or comfort dishes after a long day in the area.
