Customer Reviews
Recently visited this restaurant near the downtown Dunkin and had a great experience. The place is small but cozy, and the staff are really friendly. We ordered ramen with vegetable broth and spicy noodles, along with shrimp and crab fries. The portion sizes were huge for two people, so I’d recommend ordering just one dish first and then getting another if you’re still hungry. The fries were especially delicious—the sauce was amazing, and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Would definitely recommend checking it out!
2nd time ordering and best food in State College!! I got steak and shrimp ramen with double meat to have leftovers, it is just as good second day! Shrimp and crab fries are phenomenal! Save a little bit of ramen juice for the fries heated up and wow! Great, friendly service! Could order there every day! Thank you so much!!!
I think this place got its 5-star reviews mostly from people who have only seen ramen on TV. The broth tastes like water with powdered filler. The egg is supposed to be ajitsuke tamago, but in reality it’s just the cheapest Walmart egg boiled in plain water. Service is good. I’d be happy to pay $19 for a ramen, that’s the average price for a good bowl at a good place but here I don’t think it’s even worth $12.
I've been to many ramen shops around the U.S and this has to be a top shop for me. Noodles were amazing, meat... AMAZING. Very friendly people, if they were to open a shop around the Philly area, I'd visit every week and recommend it to all my co-workers and everyone i know. I'd drive 3 hours for this again.
My boyfriend & I listened to our friend's suggestion & stopped by here for dinner one night. We were NOT disappointed. I prefer spicy dishes, and am usually let down, but not here! Food was quick and delicious. I believe the owner came out to speak with us a little bit about the dishes we had ordered, I really appreciated the hospitality & overall quality of service. 10/10 will visit again.
