Here goes another one of my favorite spots to have my ramen & Japanese fix in the Astoria area. The Mochiron (chicken broth w/ torched porks, egg, bamboo shoot, scallion & nori seaweed) for the cold winter days is always a must for me and my family, the food is always fresh, flavorful, crispy and comforting. Service is always great and so is the vibe of this Japanese style restaurant.
Some of the food that I have tried from here & that I enjoyed are the karaage, yaki gyoza, grilled squid, chashu bun, crab salad & chicken mayo don.
During the summer they have a small backyard which is nice to enjoy a warm day with good food and good company.
My partner and I have been coming here for almost two years now and we love it every time. The food is really good and staff is very friendly. We use to bring our visitors here and they all seem to love it too.
Dark atmosphere. Food was above average. The Katsu Curry was filling and flavorful. My friends got the spicy ramen and original, it’s a favorite for two of them. One of them said it was alright.
Authentic ramen, the house miso style was an interesting take of a miso broth. The waitstaff were nice and friendly. I would come back to try other dishes, as they have other food aside from ramen.
Edited review after been there dozen of times during the past couple of years.
This place is actually amazing. I really misjudged my first impression.
The food is actually very tasty, all their Don's meals, fried stuff, are simply the best and done exactly right.
Special mentions to the Snow Chicken Don, with the extra grilled/torched onion and mayo on the top. And the home made cucumber pickles, those are addictive.
With a couple of Sojus, this is a real good place to have fun.
[Original 2019]The food is good, but I didn't get this Wahou effect.
I didn’t really like their ramen, it was pretty poor. But that’s really the only thing we tried and some rice balls. The waitress was very nice and friendly
The food was simple, flavorful, and comforting. Just what I wanted on a cold night. The servers were all very polite and attentive, and the decor was a fun mix of traditional and pop culture Japanese. Great place all around.
Nice and cozy place. The food was really good and the waitress was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely come back.
We tried they chicken katsu curry, the chicken katsu don, an order of their takoyaki which was really good. We also had some drinks as well, draft sapporo beer and a bottle of sake.
Really recommended. Portions was very good for the price as well.
The food was super delicious, my favorite were the okonomiyaki, kaki fry and grilled spelt.
The service was warm, friendly and efficient. Cant complain honestly, I would go back for dinner and to chill with some beers and sake
The food is so good! The staff was very attentive. The ramen was perfect. The prices are fair for the taste and size.
