Takoyaki and steamed buns before your bowl arrives. Small plates worth the full table order.

Came here with a friend after playing pick up basketball near by. Loved the vegan ramen with the soy milk broth! It was light and very flavorful and not as heavy like a usual ramen. I did at pork belly on the side which was a a great addition. The veggies inside were fresh and added various textures and notes throughout completing the dish. I’d recommend this to vegans and non vegans alike. Such a unique take on ramen!

Heavenly ramen, seriously the best ramen. I had the spicy black tantanmen, the fried chicken was cut into thin fried strips, the broth was earthy and savory and I added an egg and it was so flavorful. Amazing atmosphere, great stuff, better than anything I've had in NJ.

Really good ginger shoyu Ramen. Noodles were a great chewy bouncy texture plus there was a generous amount of noodles. Lots of veg, clear grease free broth with a developed flavour. My new go to ramen spot. Pork belly is excellent.... I usually stay away from pork belly as it often is improperly cooked when you go out but this place was 100% correct!!

This place is quite incredible and underrated. I'm often shocked that we can get a last-minute seat. Now that the warm weather has arrived, a nice outdoor seat here is terrific. But it's really about the Ramen. I've had it all over the city, and this is literally my favorite. While there's all sorts of styles for the pork that goes on top of the Ramen that a restaurant can serve... This one is quite special. If you'd love Ramen and don't try this place, you're really missing out.

Excellent ramen and super fast service. I ordered the miso ramen and it was outstanding. We travel the world in search of great ramen, and this one definitely makes it into our top 10. I will absolutely be coming back.
