Disappointing Tonkatsu Curry and Karage
I ordered for takeout and was really excited to try their food, but I ended up being disappointed. I got the Tonkatsu Curry, which had a bland taste and the meat seemed old, as it had a smell on it. I also tried their 3pc Karage, but it wasn’t good either. I'm so disappointed with my order here. Hopefully, they will check the qualities of their food and make the necessary improvements.

Serious Concerns About Food Safety
Here's the thing: before you all open today, a conversation between management and staff, particularly your chefs, NEEDS to be had about cross contamination and cleanliness. There are too many reviews (and I have SCREEN SHOTS) of people complaining about food poisoning after eating here. Raw food should be handled properly, gloves switched out appropriately, CHICKEN FOOD FULLY COOKED, and hands washed thoroughly before and after preparing different meals. I'm not sure if you all know the amount of children that eat food here when parents come to pick up dinner, but a child (or anyone) shouldn't have to go through the graphics I will not discuss of what happens when someone's been food poisoned. Let's be mindful and try to make the most delicious food, but as safely as possible. And for the love of GOD, don't forget to do something as simple as putting teriyaki sauce on the CHICKEN TERIYAKI 🤦🏼‍♀️. Be mindful that people are spending their hard-earned dollars here. Chefs, we appreciate everything you do, and don't ever feel as though your work isn't appreciated – it is. We the people come here because of YOU. But please, consider what was mentioned above. Sincerely, Someone who is tired of being food poisoned.

Delicious Ramen, Perfect for Dates!
Everything was super delicious! The place is perfect for going on a date and with friends. My favorite is the Ramen Red Edition, super deli 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻. It's the best place for ramen in San Diego. I don't think it's a very suitable place for children. Parking is in a free parking lot, but it can be somewhat difficult to find parking. The price per person is $20–30. The atmosphere was rated 5/5 and the food was rated 5/5, while the service was rated 4/5.

Excellent Vegan and Non-Vegan Options
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The ambience was excellent, and I was impressed by the availability of both a full vegan menu and a full non-vegan menu. The customers service was amazing, and its convenient location in Little Italy makes it a great choice for a date night or casual dining.

Fantastic Japanese Food and Happy Hour!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had some of the best Japanese food I've had in San Diego. The ramen was top notch, and the happy hour for drinks was a great deal. The service was friendly, making it a new favorite spot for me.

Rich Soup, Bland Chasiu
My experience at the restaurant was mixed. I found the soup to be rich and flavorful, especially the black one I ordered. However, the chasiu was not flavored and bland. The teriyaki donburi was just mid.

Best Ramen in SoCal!
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently excellent for the past six years. I consider it my favorite spot for the best ramen in Southern California. I highly recommend coming here to enjoy their best ramen, which is significantly better than the ramen offered at the other establishment down the street.

Ramen and Sushi Were Just Okay
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The ramen and sushi were just 'ehhh, ' not great in my personal opinion. I found the food quality to be disappointing, especially when compared to Nishiki ramen in Hillcrest, which I believe offers better ramen. However, the place itself was nice, with a good atmosphere.

Closed for Private Event - Parking Nightmare
My experience was incredibly frustrating. I spent half an hour trying to find parking, only to discover that the restaurant was closed for a private event. I wish they had communicated this better. Get it together, guys!
