    Awesome ambiance. Great staff, very friendly. Really enjoyed the ramen there. Had a great time! The organic saki rocked! Tiger beer and saki with ramen. Good way to start the night.

    Get the Mr. Robato! Even though it's under happy hour, it's served all the time. Get a bowl of ramen, draft beer of your choice, and a shot of their house sake for $10!

    You can't beat this place. The paitan base with cracklings is heaven. Don't bother with Republic.
