Yesterday, we went to this place the very first time. We were pleasantly surprised to see that the restaurant looks very neat and cozy. It has a nice Japanese atmosphere and very friendly staff. As we entered the restaurant, everybody turned towards us and said greetings in Japanese.

We will definitely...

I recommend eating ramen when it's not hot out though because in summertime you are gonna sweat while...
Read moreI ordered the Shoyu Ramen combo that came with boneless fried chicken tenders and a peach tea for 120,000 vnd ($5.15). I thought it tasted great. The flavors were what I expected. My only complaint about all Japanese ramen that I’ve had is that they are almost always too oily. However, this ramen was less oily than I’m used to, and me and my arteries appreciated that. And because if this, I will certainly be back to try other ramens...
