"Amidst the bustle of the city, nestled away in a humble corner, lies a treasure trove of flavors a ramen joint where the broth is simmered to perfection, and the noodles are the stuff of dreams. The spicy chicken ramen is a revelation, with just the right balance of heat and umami topped with perfectly fried slices of tonkatsu and ground pork, while the Ichiraku ramen was a delicious ode to tradition with a creamy chicken broth with chicken katsu, perfectly soft boiled eggs, bamboo shoots, and corn. The dishes stood out with the inclusion of one of my favorite chili powders in the world; authentic Japanese Nanami Togarashi chili powder, a blend of red chili peppers, orange peel, black sesame, white sesame, Japanese pepper, ginger, and seaweed. The complex mixture of flavors added a delightful dimension to the already spectacular ramen.We admittedly went excessive by ordering a fried 'Hit Roll ', but it was a revelation, reminding me of my beloved jalapeno poppers, but with an incredible addition of smoky salmon flavor. It was so good that I might just have to borrow this idea for my own jalapeno poppers from now on. The combination of the smoked salmon and cream cheese with a touch of heat from the jalapenos and sriracha, with the sweetness of the eel sauce, was an absolute delight, and I can 't recommend it enough.As we slurped up the noodles, we couldn 't help but notice their perfect texture. The chef, working in front of us, must have read our minds, as he asked how we liked them. When we told him that they were spot on, he explained that he 'd been searching for the right noodles for years and thanks to his wife 's fluency in Japanese, he 'd finally found them from a Japanese supplier.One thing to note is their spicy scale, which officially ranges from one to five. Yet, for the daring and the bold, I highly recommend the level 10, which delivered a fiery kick that was just perfect. For the second time, our meal was filled with laughter thanks to the staff; a charming, Korean husband and wife team, who were warm and welcoming, adding to the already wonderful experience.In short, this is a spot that should not be missed, a true gem that will leave your taste buds singing with joy. The experience was nothing short of amazing, and I can 't wait to come back and try more of their menu."

Naruto ramen was great and the ramen broth was amazing. Service was top notch too. I will definitely be back if I’m in Duluth area.

Great joint for ramen! I personally prefer AKU's ramen much more than the nearby RAKKAN's ramen. I got the spicy pork ramen, which you can choose a level of spice from 1-5. Really yummy! View menu

The food, service, and atmosphere were all incredible. This was some of the best sushi I've ever tasted, and the sweet tea was genuinely sweet! Overall, I would rate it 5 out of 5 for the food.

GREAT place to dine. Nice vibe with jazz playing in the background only enhances the great service and phenomenal food. My son and husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience, including the sheer artistry by the sushi chef. What a gem in Johns Creek.

My favorite sushi place! The sushi is always fresh, delicious, and packed with flavor. My top choice is the cosmopolitan, but the double salmon, aloha, and pink lady are all fantastic too! The owners are wonderful and incredibly friendly. You can always count on great food and excellent service at this charming little spot! View menu

We happened upon this hidden gem of a ramen restaurant. The flavors lean more towards Korean rather than traditional Japanese. The broth was quite light, and the noodles were enjoyable. We didn’t try any sushi, but the ramen really satisfied our cravings. While it may not be the best we've ever had, it’s a solid choice if you’re looking for some good ramen in the Johns Creek area.

Arrived a little before 2:30, before their lunch hour special ended which was nice for me to save two dollars in a ramen and sushi roll combo. The restaurant is well decorated and has a nice ambience with soft music. A good place for a date. The waitress was nice and attentive. She also knew the menu well and gave additional information about the lunch special offered. The restrooms do not have the same decoration which I found a bit disappointing and should be remodeled to suit it and change some of the appliances like the hand dryer and soap dispenser.Now for the food, the ichiraku ramen, dumpling ramen and tonkotsu ramen were all tasty with good broth and noodles. All had the option to ch...

"We’ve eaten at Sugo’s maybe or times in the past. It was great and we enjoyed going, but recently (past months) there had been a noticeable decline in the quality of the food, either that or we were just unlucky, For instance; the cannelloni was luke warm, similarly the flat breads. The cream topping came last night and believe me, I rarely complain or leave bad reviews…We had the entire family at the restaurant as the kids were leaving for University. For Starters we ordered dates in bacon (which were fantastic) and flatbreads. The dates came out but the flatbreads lagged by minutes and were lukewarm. Main courses were ordered, along with wine. We were brought a white wine which was not what we ordered (red). The waitress came back with the correct wine then proceeded to spill the wine down the back of my wife’s dress. Ok an accident, they do happen what was really crappy was that the manager/owner said sorry, we’ll pay the dry cleaning and basically that was it wife spent the rest of the dinner in a wet dress (which was literally bought that day) and wet knickers. We did get an apology written in icing when they brought out complimentary cannoli’s and a small tiramisu. Check was for full cost of the meal and I even left a tip for the poor waitress. On the way out, the table host wished us a good night and we said it will be good now we have left at that she rushed out for our email address to send a gift voucher to us which we refused we won’t be going back. It all seemed too little too late. We know accidents happen, we never complain, but when something like this happens at a purportedly upscale restaurant you expect a little more of an apology from the management of the place, they really did not care, not one iota"
