What to Order
Abura Soba (Brothless Ramen)
This is their signature dish, featuring chewy, handmade noodles designed to hold onto rich sauces and toppings, offering a customizable and flavorful experience.
"Overall, it’s a very dependable spot if you’re craving a high-quality bowl of brothless ramen (abura soba), though there are a few things to keep in mind before you head in. The noodles are the star here. They have that perfect, chewy "mochi-mochi" texture that holds onto the sauce and toppings beautifully."

"The homura was my go to pick and it comes with dashi powder included which elevates the dish a lot."
