Description
Since 2014, the kitchen has served traditional noodle bowls alongside a full bar of sake, wine, and specialty cocktails. Beyond the signature Miso Beef and Spicy Chili Beef ramen, the menu features plates like Wagyu Foie Gras Uni Toast and Wagyu Omurice, as well as sushi and calamari. Reviewers point to the balanced broths of the Spicy Tonkatsu and Miso options, served by an attentive staff. While prices run a bit higher than some neighborhood spots, visitors find the food well worth the stretch.
