First time here since we love Ramen, and it was everything we asked for and more! The teas where fantastic (peach and Thai Tea) the mango lemonade was great also! The tan tan was spicy but the kids loved it! Shaka Ramen was really good!

Saw that a ramen shop popped up near where I live so I had to check it out. For appetizers, we ordered the soy garlic wings. They were some of the best wings that l’ve had in a restaurant in a long time. Both tasty and juicy. Our spicy ramen was also yummy. I definitely recommend trying this place out if you get a chance.

This is in a shopping center I didn’t know existed in Middletown. The decoration is beautiful, and the food is really good. The servers are very nice also! I’m glad there’s a ramen place further south now.

Loved the food! Went on their 3rd day of opening. Staff is still getting into the groove of a new restaurant. That is the only reason I’m giving 4 instead of 5 stars.

Food was amazing! Had a very clean and comfortable interior. Loved the Naruto curtain that’s divided the kitchen from the eating area. Can’t wait to eat here again!

Ok overall aesthetics were 5/5 very nice atmosphere nice music very clean establishment. I give the service three out of five. The lady at the front desk was very welcoming but our server was very mediocre. She was sweet but we’ve never been to this establishment. Didn’t suggest anything on the menu, didn’t describe anything we asked about. So for that I give her a 3. I orderd the Spicy chicken ramen it was very flavorful definitely spicy, noodles were cooked perfectly not soggy. We ordered the buns as an appetizer it comes with two they were huge I coulda just ate that alone and would have been full the pork was seasoned well and tender 4/5. The gyrzo were just ok to me I ordered the pork ones they came out quickly which was great. We also ordered the shrimp tempura they are large comes with about 5/6 but I would never order again 0/5 they had absolutely ZERO flavor very bland just fried battered shrimp no season in the batter either. Lastly I ordered the passion fruit green tea $5 decent size tasted amazing would definitely order again .

This is a nice little ramen restaurant. We tried the spicy and tantan ramen, as well as the takoyaki and vegetable spring rolls. The takoyaki and ramen were excellent, the later had flavorful broth and the usual mix of vegetables and meat. The is only one thing I’d change, and that is to use a less fatty cut of pork for the chashu, however this looks like pork belly and is the standard for this type of dish.
