Decided to give this place a try, the service is friendly and the food is acceptable. The place is clean and plenty of sitting space. I tried the Chicken Katsu Curry Rice, it was too much curry, not their fault. If you like chicken katsu and little curry, maybe ask for the curry on the side or something. Overall a good experience and satisfied.

Fast friendly attentive service. No nonsense kind of place that I like. Prices are reasonable. Get the mini ramen and choose 2 sides even if you’re not that hungry.

UPDATE 1/19: Still awesome food, quick service and reasonable prices. They have a “happy hour” special of free gyoza from 2:30-5:00 with the purchase of a meal.

The service was very fast and pleasant. The main dish came out in minutes. Unfortunately, it was most likely sitting under a hot plate or lamp waiting, meaning it was lukewarm at best. The other thing that I didn’t care for was that my three course meal, main dish, miso, and Gyoza, all came out at separate times. The quality of the meat was substandard, tough, chewy and not of even mediocre quality. Only the Gyoza was above standard. Even though the price was very reasonable, I don’t think I’ll be back as I’d rather pay a little more for better value.

Staff are super nice, very helpful and attentive with great service minded and beautiful smiles. My boyfriend ordered a spicy beef udon and it was a little bit too spicy for him ( the soup was perfect but my bf rarely have the spicy food ) The staff came and offer to put more soup in there and kept checking if that was okay for him. We were impressed by that. Thank you so much. Btw I ordered Tan Tan ramen. The portion was huge but I finished it! Yummy!

No wait time, quick & friendly service, and large portion sizes. I liked the many menu options, and loved the build your own combo! I ordered mini miso ramen [no onion & add egg] with gyoza & mochiko chicken, while my friend ordered chicken katsu curry plate and cold tofu. We both wanted to try the cheesecakes, but we were too full, next time we will have dessert first ,,v, (^_^*)

A great option for ramen in the Kahala/Kaimuki area. Clean. We went during the first few weeks of opening. Service was great, lots of smiles and so attentive.

Not the best Ramen I’ve ever had and I live on the main land. Not terrible but not memorable for what I expect from an Asian majority state located in the pacific. I know there’s heavenly ramen in Oahu but we had no time before our flight except for this place.

This place was super busy. They are very fast at turning tables over. Even though they were super busy, they took the time to ask us if we were okay. The ladies up front are great and the food is awesome. This is some good ramen.
