2027-04-29 Located across from Ohlone College so there was almost no lunchtime crowd. I was told that the busy time is after 3 PM when the students will come to eat. The place was clean and the food was OK. The service was good. I would say a solid four stars.

Ramen was tasty but we got level 2 spicy (out of 4 levels 0 1 2 3) which was too spicy for us so I’d go with no spicy or level 1 spicy in the future. I got extra chashu on mine. The vibe/atmosphere is nice too with the paintings on the wall and nice background jazz music playing it gives cozy Japanese hole in the wall vibes.

Overall not a great experience for us. The food way okay...but the service was not good. When we ordered, we clearly stated that we would like the classic ramen, but the cashier added the vegetarian ramen instead. We didn't notice until the food came, which had a bunch of tomatoes and carrots (something that shouldn't go in ramen). The ramen was bland either way, and we had to ask for the chashew meat that was supposed to come with the classic ramen. We got our meat, but it was very dry and not very pleasant to eat.

Its as if the ramen was prepared yesterday, it wasnt very hot at all. The server was very nice and the thai milk tea was OK, but the ramen felt low quality. there are much better ramens for a similar price if not cheaper at restaurants not far from this one

This unassuming restaurant is located in a strip mall across a local community college. The ramen was absolutely delicious, and is by far, one of the best ramen bowls I’ve ever eaten! I really appreciate that every component of the soup was perfectly cooked: the texture and flavor of the egg and pork slice, the noodles, the incredibly fragrant black garlic oil and miso broth, and perfectly marinated bamboo slices. The interior was clean, and nicely decorated. There’s soft jazz music playing in the background which helps set the tone for a relaxing atmosphere. Service was friendly and efficient.
