11/14/17 This place has a great selection of Japanese cuisine, but my go to every time I go there is their ramen. With as cold as the winters can get up here in New York, ramen is the perfect comfort food to get you through November to March. The dish isn't that spicy (although I guess that's subjective), but if you are worried about that they have a non spicy version. The pork bone marrow broth is rich and the Chashu pork is very tender and easy to eat. The flavor mixture of the broth, scallions, and kikurage mushrooms mix to give a real kick with each spoonful. They've found a great ratio between noodles, broth, and other ingredients. I've only tried a few ramen places, but this is the best one I've been to and I usually go there at least a couple times a month. I'd strongly recommend you try it out if you're in the area. Its a good low cost, low effort meal.
