The restaurant was full when we arrived around 6:30. We decided to sit at the bar. Service was a bit slow but we did not mind because it was very busy. The Spicy tuna hand roll was delicious and was great as an appetizer. The highlight of the night was the tonkotsu ramen. It was one of the best bowls of ramen I have ever had. I would highly recommend this with a little dab of chili oil. 8.4/10

The sushi wasn't very good (I got the tarantula, because it seemed like most options had ground…read morefish) but the beef stir fry was not bad. Very oily but had good flavorful and great noodle texture. The sushi just was very big and definitely felt like it was missing something major to balance out the flavors. Service was so so. As soon as we walked in, a younger white guy immediately greeted us and took our drink orders 10/10. After maybe 1 minute someone else came and asked if we were ready. We just sat down, please wait. This was how service was almost the entire time. I appreciate the attention but also it was a little much. Overall, maybe the ramen is better but wouldn't come here for sushi.

A few pieces of old rice from the night before in the middle of the grill. The food cart was disgusting. Old food grime everywhere. Thank God the food was on trays. The pepper shakers were all corroded with old food, so the holes were plugged. We checked 4 different shakers, and all were the same. Food from the night before still on the floors. The bathrooms were sickening. If I had gone to the bathroom before we ate, we would've left. Dead cockroaches on the floor. Pee and grime all over the toilet and urinals. Walls were stained with urine, grime, and dust. Floors were sticky and smelled. I will never go back to this location ever again.

First off, the service was really good. Our waiter was really nice and attentive, and our food came…read moreout pretty fast, However, the problem started... soon as it did. I've worked at hibachi/sushi restaurants for 6 years now, and this is by far the worst sushi I've ever had, or let alone seen. We ordered the shaggy dog roll, because my girlfriend is new to sushi, so I wanted to get her something simple. However, little did I know, it wasn't sushi. It was rice balls. (See attached picture to understand) as any avid sushi lover knows, the shaggy dog comes with shrimp tempura, yet there was no shrimp tempura to be seen or tasted besides the end piece with just the tail, and when I say rice ball, I mean rice ball. (Trust me, you'll understand if you look at the picture) we only ate one piece of the sushi and put it at the end of the table for them to take. I decided to then try their sashimi, given the fact that there seemed to be an abundant absence of anything other than rice in the sushi roll. So I got salmon and eel sashimi. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater, the eel sashimi was some of the best I've ever had In life. But.... The salmon, might as well been packaged in a ziplock bag. Pink, grey and fraying. Nothing like any fresh salmon I've had at any Japanese restaurant. Overall, the inside is absolutely beautiful, the service is amazing, and the hibachi entree was actually fairly good. But if you're looking for sushi, look everywhere but here.

Yanagi Ramen is a solid addition to the area and a place I'd definitely return to. While it wasn't…read morethe most mind-blowing ramen I've ever had, it was genuinely good--especially for the location--and clearly hits the spot when you're craving something warm and comforting. I really appreciated the variety of vegetarian options, which felt thoughtfully done rather than like an afterthought. My bowl was flavorful and well-balanced, though worth noting: even after asking for heat, it wasn't spicy at all, so spice lovers may want to temper expectations. That said, the experience had a bit of a rough start. We arrived right at the posted opening time (11am) and ended up waiting outside in the freezing cold, unsure if they were actually open. We had to call to confirm, and only then did someone come to unlock the door. Once inside, I asked for hot tea--pretty standard at most Japanese spots--only to be told they were completely out, which was surprising. All things considered, Yanagi Ramen delivers a dependable bowl with good vegetarian choices and a clean, modern space. A few opening-hour kinks and missing basics kept it from being great, but the food itself was enjoyable, and I'd happily come back--just not for spice, and hopefully next time with hot tea ready to go.

My only thing is that the soup could have been slightly warmer and with a smidge more broth. I usually don't like a tone of broth but this was a little lacking (see photo). My friend got the seafood ramen and it looked really bad. He said it came cold which was confirmed with another person who tried the soup. The shrimp looked very overcooked and the scallops were tiny. We also tried the calamari and the takoyaki. The takoyai wasn't very good and the calamari also wasn't great but the sauce saved it a little. We also tried the white peach sake which didn't taste like alcohol at all. The hot teas and sodas are refills as well. Service was nice and the interior is very pretty and modern.
