I went here on a Friday at the very opening to participate in a collab event with Zenless Zone Zero…read more(I had never been here before and was really going for the ZZZ merch.) I enjoy ramen very much and eat it quite often, this was definitely high up on the list. I got there very early before they opened (expecting a bit of a line from the ZZZ colab) but only two other people were "waiting" for them to open at 11am. I had never been to a collab event before and was going off my friend's experience who admittedly live in much more populous cities (LA, NY.) They opened ten minuets early, so I went in and was greeted promptly and warmly by a young man. The other two people shortly followed and got their seat (they also came for the limited colab event.) I asked some questions about how the collab goes down as it was my first time at one and my first time at Kyuramen. With questions answered I was offered a seat, I choose the bar area as I was solo and didn't want to take up more space than needed. Shortly after got myself seated I was given the menu, the collab information and a water in an interesting soda can style translucent plastic cup with the Kyuramen branding. The menu size is perfect, enough to have plenty of choices but small enough to not be distracted. I had the pork tonkatsu curry, the pan-fried gyoza dumplings, the Spicy Chili Chicken Ramen (this was a limited event entree for the colab) which came with a Sparkling Lemonade, A brown sugar boba milk tea and for desert a Cherry Blossom Jelly. Pricing is typical of what you see at a modern ramen place, possibly a bit cheaper $15 apps $20 entrees $5 desserts and 100% worth every penny! My appetizer was delivered fairly quickly and by this point more people were coming in, and by the time I had my entree about half the dining room was full and a few of the honeycomb booths. This was just before noon. Not sure if that is typical of this place or if the colab event brought some more people in. Just thought it was worth mentioning, service remained consistently prompt. First of all you can tell the food was absolutely fresh! The Gyoza was hand made and absolutely delicious! The ramen broth was rich and somehow just soft enough even with the spicy chili to be able to slurp up, all the toppings were fantastic, the chicken was popcorn style and remained super crispy despite being in broth, noodles were great and honestly it looked exactly like the image on the collab advert. The pork tonkatsu was so perfectly breaded and had an very nice crunch with amazing flavor, the curry was a traditional blend of spices and paired with the pork very well, even the rice was great! I was really impressed with the dessert, the Cherry Blossom Jelly. A perfectly round translucent orb with an actually cherry blossom inside, resting on a bed of white pearl jellies. It also came with a simple syrup of some kind (I had never had anything like this so I just poured some on the whole desert.) The texture was firm and moist with a subtle sweetness accompanied by a fragrant floral component that really dazzled the senses. Very Impressed! The staff was very kind and full of smiles, you can tell they all work together very well and genuinely care about their product and their customers. Very quick to clean up tables and make everything perfect. For the next guest. The utensils were very well made, chopsticks felt good in the hand, bowl is a custom made (porcelain/clay?) with small bubbles to show an "artisanal" type of vibe, very sturdy. The bamboo plates that the desert and the gyoza was placed on had scorched in branding that really just gave everything a professional and quality feel. The dining area itself has a large area with several 4 top tables, a four person hi-top table, a four/five person "private" table that had some kind of twisting branch (cage is not the word I would use, more like a privacy lattice?) surrounding it. It looked super cool! They also had the honeycomb booths as you see in a few other more modern ramen joints. Lastly where I had sat was at the noodle bar, where you can see right behind and watch them cook and set up the ramen for the customers, super cool vibe! The entire establishment was incredibly clean, not one particle of dust to be found, floor had no scuffs, you can tell they take pride in the appearance of the space and the dedication from the employees really shows. Bathroom is really cool looking with a powered light mirror, and a on counter bowl style sink, very unique half-pipe faucet. It just looked cool honestly so I figured I would mention it. Very clean as well, congruent with the rest of the establishment. Over the course of the meal I was given my event merch and my waiter was very accommodating. Once finished he brought out my take out items and offered me a bag for my merch. The take out items where well seated, organized nicely and came in a very sturdy bag. Would HIGHLY recommend this place for solo or with friends!

The sauce options weren't very good and they use sliced frozen beef and chicken (similar to that of a hot pot place). The counter food was pretty bland in flavor and most of it was sitting out for long periods of time. I wasn't a fan of general tsos, the honey chicken or the fish. Most of the chicken was overcooked that was sitting out. The chicken and broccoli was the best item up on the hot bar. The soups were good as well. I enjoyed the Pork Buns and the Dim Sum as well. Cleanliness was an issue, numerous dirty soda cups and dishes. The lady working the register didn't even say hello upon entering. She just turned the card reader towards us where it read 42 dollars. She didn't say thank you, enjoy, have a nice day or anything.

Here you will find quick Japanese dishes including several sandwiches (Sando) and stir fry, including both Noodle and rice dishes. The site has been previously occupied by other eateries. Street parking is available and there is a small parking lot behind the restaurant, which I assume is there parking, but I am unsure if it's for the restaurant or not. Inside, the eatery was dimly lit and throughout you can find various pieces of Japanese artwork on the walls which also happened to be for sale. It was also slightly warm when I dined in and I noticed the thermostat was set to 79°, which made it slightly uncomfortable for me but, to be fair, I am prone to being warmer than the average person. When I was there it was the owner who was the only one operating the place as her assistance was running late that day so she was responsible for all the food prep and customer service which I could imagine could be taxing on her. Despite this fact, she always demonstrated a positive attitude and was friendly. I went for their lunch service and for $10 you get your choice of entree, one side, and a drink. The person who I got lunch with ordered the yakisoba and it looked good. Unfortunately I was unable to capture a photo of his dish. Me, on the other hand, ordered the omo rice with chicken. This was my first time ever experiencing this dish and it was presented slightly different than what I had expected given that I have seen it on videos before. Regardless of this fact it was still very delicious. I ordered potato fries as my side with some of the additional dipping Mayo, which was a blend of mayonnaise and Japanese mustard and was delicious. Some other dipping sauces are also available upon requests at a small upcharge. I do plan on returning to the restaurant to try more of their options as I saw several things that peaked my interest. Be aware that if you pay by card that the operating system does not give an option to provide a tip for service. Fortunately, I had some cash on hand and I was able to leave a tip at the table so I would advise, especially if your dining in, to bring a couple extra bucks with you.

I also had the Godzilla Roll, which had spicy crab ,cucumber ,tempura flakes ,outside ell avocado ,Eel sauce. I enjoyed this roll, and would give this a score of 6/10.
