Had no plan to taste Japanese food and gave a last movement thought to give a try for the first time. It was above my expectation and satisfied with the taste of the food. A must try restaurant with a spicy touch like India food.

You must visit here!! Great Japanese food (though they also have pho) — had the cold seasonal udon & my friend had ramen — served SO fast (and it was really busy when we were there) and the location is great! The karaage chicken appetizer was the star of the show.

One of the best ramen restaurant in Detroit! The ambience was okay but the food was amazing. The service was good they had really good recommendation on tweaking the dishes to match my taste. The desert was okay.

I have been to this place quite a few times and I have enjoyed each time. I love their karaage chicken bites and it’s vegan counterpart (tofu). The phos and ramens are really nice. I had ordered a salmon rice bowl which was amazing. They have a good collection of drinks as well and variety of cocktails to choose from.

Finally got a chance to try this place and we were not let down! The food was great and they had options for one in our party who is vegan.

Omg me and my family enjoyed this place and the amazing food and drinks. I most definitely recommend it and the pricing is reasonable. Plz make sure you try the pork belly it was AMAZING. I wish could remember my server name she was super cool and chill plus she gave great recommendations. We will be back again soon thanks for the great experience!!!

Most people like steak, I’m a salmon person. I’ve had 100+ salon dishes in my life & this was the best I’ve ever had. The salon rice bowl with the pickled ginger just won my heart entirely. It was super busy sat night to be expected, had decent service at the bar. Drinks were phenomenal too.

We ordered the broccolini, curry udon, spicy tori ramen, and spicy pork udon. All fabulous and can’t recommend enough! Service was great and food came out quick.

ImaNotSure. Okay, not terrible but I’m not sure what makes this place popular. Location? Trendiness? The tables are small and similar to a fast food place, the ambiance is noisy, the service was nice but inefficient and the food was good but not inexpensive. So, definitely not terrible but also not sure I will come back. I think my favorite thing was the location.
