"Tldr; this place changed for the worse in just two years, DO NOT RECOMMEND, even for just a quick bite. My boyfriend and I used to come here pre-pandemic every now and then. I usually got their spicy Korean bowl even though it seemed this place specializedin more western pasta dishes. At the time, it wasn't my favorite Korean noodle bowl ever, but it was palatable and I couldfinish most of it. My boyfriend usually ordered the Japanese pan noodles. We came here finally, after a couple years, only tounfortunately discover this place has gone downhill, as we predicted. The way the food is made changed dramatically. The Koreanbowl used to be more savory, a little of that umami factor most Korean noodle dishes have. The Japanese bowl tasted more nutty,American-fusion style. There also used to be real shiitake mushrooms in their Japanese noodle bowl. Now, they added ketchup orsome sort of sweetener to the Korean noodle bowl, and it doesn't compliment any of the flavors at all. The Japanese bowl now hasregular white mushrooms and tastes worse. We ordered pot stickers this time, and even the dipping sauce for the pot stickerschanged for the worse. Like the Korean bowl, they added a sweetener that doesn't compliment chili or soy sauce. Won't come hereor to this chain ever again, no matter how desperate we are."
