★★★★★ 5.0 Chulhong Choi · Sep 2022

This restaurant is one of my favorite restaurants in South Pasadena. Especially I love their Spicy Kimchi Ramen. Nowadays they have two lunch combo options and those options are pretty good as well. The staffs are very kind and the inside is clean. I definitely recommend this place!

★★★★★ 5.0 Scott Laurent · Feb 2026

Food and service is always consistently excellent. Their chicken karaage is tender and the sauce is excellent. Don't skip the cauliflower/broccoli hash either

★★★★☆ 4.0 Christy E · Feb 2022

It’s a cool little spot in South Pasadena. They have a good lists of choices on the menu for you to enjoy. We opted for curry fries, spider sliders, and spicy tuna bowl to share, and I liked the spider sliders the most. As to the ramen, good portion! The broth was surprisingly good, it was rich and flavorful. Chashu was well-cooked, not melt in your mouth but flavor-wise, it was good. Downside? I wish they could give more toppings. All in all, good overall flavors!
