Its ramen. If you're thinking salty noodles is the American version and the Japanese version is something different then you're wrong. Same salty noodles but fancier. But what else would you expect I guess. Its a ramen restaurant. I was hoping for something magically not a bowl of salt and carbs I outgrew from my younger days because I keep hearing how much people like real ramen. But its exactly what you would think ramen would be from a restaurant. I would not say save yourself the money and get a $.10 packet from the store. It is much nicer than that. But its definately down the same line but thicker with a little meat and a little vegetables thrown in. So if you stopped eating ramen a long time ago then I wouldnt recommend it. If you still love ramen then this is the place for you. I will say it was pricier than I thought it should have been though. I got the curry ramen and it was $12 before tax etc. for an average sized bowl of soup. I've had bigger, better pho for less. I gave them 4 stars because they did ramen well and thats what they advertise they do. I knocked down a star for feeling it was a little over priced for what it was.
