Conlittlejohn • April 6, 2013Bad service and the most indifferent sushi-place ever (even for a food court!)

Dru B. • December 20, 2018They have both tonkotsu and shoyu ramen 🍜 and a solid selection of beers! Quick service, too. It’s on the loud side so be prepared to shout a bit.

Christina C. • September 3, 2023Decent ramen with thin noodles and good soft egg and melt in ur mouth pork. Gyoza was deep fried but still pretty good, came with aioli. Bun was decent. Solid place for santa monica promenade
