“ Finally! Good ramen in my area ! I have tried all the places nearby, but always had to drive at least 15 min to another city to find a decent ramen place. Wished I could have been able to describe how it is to eat in this place, but I can at least review the togo experience, during COVID-19 . Food I would say the food I got were all packed with flavor. To top off the flavor, the noodles were at the perfect consistency, where it wasn’t too soggy or hard. We ended up getting the: Kotsu Kick - some spicyness, creamy goodness broth ! Vegan Kotsu Great to also know that this place is Vegan friendly, so I wouldn’t have to worry if there was something my kid can’t eat. The best thing I would say, is the packaging. Everything packed with their bag, felt so much nicer then just a plastic bag. Even the bowl, was extremely easy ! All the ingredients for the ramen was actually in a layer in the bowl! Mind blown! Staff had masks on, and the lady that helped us made fast and easy. Definitely will be back soon to satisfy my ramen craving! Until next time ! ”
