Lulu was amazing and accommodated our allium and egg allergies with care. The food was incredible and my mom who does not like sushi absolutely loved the Wafu Mushroom. Highly recommend!

Food was amazing and the staff was so nice and attentive. The blackened cod was beyond amazing. My son said the ramen was the best he's ever had. Miso clams were delicious and spicy 🔥

The ramen was fine, not memorable. The service was a bit odd. One guy attempted to take my soup before I had finished, another kept asking me how I wanted to pay, even though I was at the bar with plenty of empty seats. His colleague also s...

Incredible food. We tried spicy tuna rolls, tonkotsu ramen, fried rice, cold pasta, and everything was delicious. The space can get crowded, especially on a cold day where everyone wants to warm up with a nice warm ramen, but the hosts kno...

I went alone for lunch and had pork cutlet curry and crab croquettes. Both were delicious. However, true to New York style, they were expensive.
