One odd a few beef based ramen spots in the bay area. The flavors are rich and savory. The bone marrow is a great touch of smoothness. The noodle were fine but not the top tier of ramen noodles I've had. The fried mushrooms were excellent! The service was great, they stayed open a little later to make sure we could get our order. Prices were high in typical San Francisco fashion, but I would recommend if your a ramen addict. Traveler and Adventurer - IG @brian.dent

I came here when I wasn't feeling well and their broth brought me back to life. The flavor of the broth was incredible! It wasn't too salty..had good earthy, savory, and subtle sweet notes. The noodles were perfect, had just the right amount of chew. I like my egg a little more jammy versus runny, but that's a personal preference I should have communicated. It came with the right amount of meat and mushroom balance. The server was very friendly and attentive.

Not your average ramen bar. The restaurant uses beef as the only meat in its food. The ramens are either ones with a beef bone broth or vegetarian. The dumplings are made with a beef filling too. Loved the mushroom tempura and the braised Oz tail appetizers. The beef ramen with bone marrow special is spectacular looking and tastes great

Pretty good beef based ramen (no pork), but the noodles weren’t perfect or consistent, and there is no beer. Ramen and beer are a match made in heaven. Sounds like it is coming, but there was no definite date when posted. The beef brisket was well cooked and fell apart as it should, although the paitan and shio broth missed that “ness” and deep flavor that I miss with a pork broth. One of the better neighborhood ramen spots, but without fresh noodles it’s tough to compete with the Japanese chains that are opening. Will amend my review once they have beer and sake.
