The only reason I gave it a 4 star was because the shrimp tempura roll was smaller. For a $7 roll, the portion was quite small.
Overall, it was a good dining experience. Quick and friendly service. Would eat here again!
The prices were almost identical, but Kotoyama should definitely be cheaper. The experience is more low budget and you will feel it when you arrive and know it after you’ve eaten. Our server was knowledgeable and very friendly, so no issue there.
The ramen – the reason you are there – *looks* the part. The flavor just was not there. I would normally get spicy ramen (which makes my nose run from the heat) and saw “super spicy” ramen on the menu. Unfortunately it wasn’t hot, so I’d hate to see what “normal” spicy ramen tastes like. It also came with only half an egg- whereas the others had a full egg. I ordered an extra egg, but got 3 egg halves. I had looked forward to breaking my own egg open and mixing it in. Oh well, on par…
My friend had the vegetable ramen, which again was decent and well prepared, just not as good as the competition. The spring rolls were excellent, comparatively.
The rest of the experience was on par with the food. Even getting into the booth was a chore. They chose strange bulky tables with large X shaped legs that don’t allow you to easily enter or exit the booth. Seniors or folks with mobility challenges will struggle there.
The decor was passable, but the materials and finish were cheap. Nowhere near the ambience and quality of the competition. Paper napkins, cheap plastic plates and bowls, and the laminated table surfaces were all lacking. Then came my $2.50 soda in a can. I didn’t even want to try asking about a free refill.
It was at that point I noticed how swift it was. No, I don’t mean fast. I mean Taylor Swift. Whatever service was playing background music was ALL Taylor Swift. Not a station based on her, but ALL. An hour of endless Taylor.
For good measure, I checked out the bathroom and was pleasantly surprised. The fit and finish in there seemed better than the dining area. *shrugs* check out the photos.
There’s quite a bit that needs to be upgraded to improve the overall experience here if they’re going to charge what the nicer place does. $18 for ramen at both places- but the other gets you the real flavor (including that garlic ramen that sells out everyday), bottomless fountain drinks, cloth napkins, real dishes, elaborate and elevated decor, accessible seating, and music that won’t have you looking at each other in confusion.
Def solve that last one… like… tomorrow.
Raman! What we liked about it was that it was not just salty as some this was just right. We had the Tara bubble tea and it was awesome.
Our server’s name was Fancy, She was wonderful and very kind.
And I do believe it was the manager or maybe the owner that came by and asked us what we thought we thought.
Everyone was very welcoming great food nice environment this will definitely be a place we return to many times
