Well-seasoned and crispy fried chicken. Bun is unfortunately very sad. Fries (wedges) are okay, underseasoned. Try the off-menu "Koreano," their chicken sandwich with daikon radish slaw added.

Delicious upscale Japanese that won't break the bank. Love the lunch sets like the pressed salmon sushi. Everything is beautifully presented and the service is great. Soba is homemade and delicious!
The pork buns aren't all that but the spicy ramen is good and the pork is super tender. Um... Avoid the girl server. She seems like she hates her job :P
The ramen is classic, almost as well executed as Ippudo and much lighter, and tastes as good as the wait is painful. Arrive before 6 or wait 90m. Split the two daily ramens.
Order the ma-yu ramen with pork tonkotsu broth—a luscious meaty soup, more cloudy than creamy—with earthy, crunchy kikurage mushrooms and a half-submerged sheet of briny nori.
