My wife said vegan dumplings are great). A great place to get Asian fusion! Can't go wrong with pork Ramen, but check what's on the special 1st.

I used to live in Japan so I know my ramen. This is the best I've had since NYC late last year. Get the Tonkatsu Ramen.

Loved the buns. Spicy bomb in the ramen is a must. If someone wants to share, tell them to get their own.

The shrimp and pork dumplings were amazing. I couldn't believe that the Tonkatsu Ramen was even better. Best ramen I've ever had.

I've only been here for brunch or late night cocktails & apps but it's been perfect no matter what.

The buns are great. Great service. Get a spicy bomb with your ramen bowl, comes on the side and you add to taste.

Any of the ramen 🍜 are all good!

The tuna poke is a must: sashimi-grade ahi tuna, seaweed salad and apple cucumber slaw atop crispy pork rinds. It’s a balanced bite each time. Read more

They charge extra to make your ramen spicy, so save the spicy dipping sauce from your dumpling appetizer and add it to your ramen.

You must try the green tea creme brûlée for dessert! Woah.
Joe LongApril 28, 2012
Beef buns are out of control. Miso ramen was good, the egg was a nice touch. Poke was pretty average. Great dumplings! Oh, and good drinks!

Definitely get a spicy bomb with your ramen. Also get a pork bun or two.

All of the dumplings and buns are so good, specifically the pork buns.

Pork buns, pork dumplings, tonkotsu ramen with pork belly is the way to go with a saketini or O-cha mark

Great fusion food! Dumplings are great, so is the Ramen!

Only place to satisfy Ramen craving in Madison. Now also tavernakaya but same source.

Pork buns. Dumplings. Nice specialty drink selection too.

I dream about the pork buns. And I can't bring myself to order anything but the tonkotsu (pork) raman. So good!
Andrea PerkinsJuly 27, 2014
Buns are out of this world. Dumpling are on point. The ramen is eh

Go late, get the pork and chive dumplings, a garlic bomb and the spicy sauce. Kampai!

Pulled Pork bun special. Do it. We did twice.
