Delicious spot, especially convenient for folks in West or Central Harlem, and right by the 125th St 1 train stop. I had the spicy tonkotsu ramen and a side of karaage, both of which were excellent. The ramen serving was generous in a rather large bowl. The chashu slices were very tender and a good thickness, and had a delicious sweet glaze on them. The broth was rich and the meal was filling without needing to order more noodles. Not cheap but not too expensive either, especially considering the high quality. I’m definitely planning to go back and try some other options. My food was served quickly after ordering, but I felt like the service after that wasn’t particularly attentive - no waiter checked in after I got my food, and I had to wait around for a while after finishing before I could get the check. Not a huge deal though, and the servers were still polite and the food was excellent. - Jared Canizales
