"My friend and I went for lunch on a weekday, and I was thrilled to discover their excellent lunch menu. It comes with side dishes and is very affordable given the generous portions. Recommended by our server, we started with lamb ribs and kinoko katsu. I had never tried lamb ribs before, and they were incredible—braided and glazed in a wonderfully sweet and tangy sauce. I was pleasantly surprised by the kinoko katsu, which features panko-breaded shiitake mushrooms. It could easily serve as a meat substitute because of its intense umami flavor. It was like a much better version of Asian chicken nuggets!
For our main courses, we shared a massive bowl of kimchi ramen, to which we added bamboo shoots (I love them!). The bowl was enormous, making the $14 price completely worth it. The taste of the house-made kimchi was outstanding, easily making it the best ramen I’ve ever had, and the fresh ingredients added an extra layer of flavor. We also shared a tuna poke bowl with red curry dressing. I think I’ve found my favorite poke spot! The portion size was generous and beautifully presented with a variety of toppings: masago, avocado, marinated seaweed, cucumber, edamame, and scallions. The red curry sauce added an incredible flavor boost!
To top off our meal, we enjoyed the coconut fish, which absolutely blew me away! It was wonderfully rich in flavor and topped with a mix of roasted nuts, with the sauce adding a deliciously bitter note. I will definitely be back to explore more items on the menu because my first meal was simply perfect! I also found that the restaurant is very vegetarian-friendly, so I’ll be sure to bring my vegetarian friends next time! Follow me on IG at @KFitzEats!"
