Terence Chan

Interesting location. Seems a tad out of place but super nice staff ; gave us a free shot to try! More importantly the char su bun and spicy tonkotsu ramen w/butter corn was surprisingly good. 4/5!

Al S

Wonderful ramen with lot of vegetarian/vegan options. The tofu here is seriously amazing. Try the wide noodles in your soup too.

Alicia Kosasih

Dined here couple times and decided to come back for even more. Although service might be a little slow, I love their preserved egg broth! Ingredients are fresh enough & of good quality as well .

Eric Andersen

Japanese whiskey ! If you're not sure which to have, get the Nikka Coffey Grain Whiskey , amazing stuff

Jeremy Krantz

Ramen is decent but shabu is the way to go! Their kimchi broth is awesome. Beef is preferable too!

Eric Andersen

The Spicy Mala Dumpling Bowl is incredibly flavorful — this keeping the strong spicy heat in check

Eric Andersen

The seaweed salad here is excellent — and is large and filling!

A S

Love the concept.. the food was great and our waiter was extremely helpful and attentive. Can't wait to return.

Eric Andersen

Get the hot pot ! Can't go wrong with miso and kimchi side by side.

Eric Andersen

The wings here are surprisingly top-notch — try the sweet soy!

Jonathan Yu

Good ramen and hot pot . All you can eat hot pot for $31.95 on Monday and Tuesday nights.

Eric Andersen

The seaweed salad here is surprisingly scrumptious…and large enough to share!

Eric Andersen

The Char-Shu Bao is an excellent small plate

Mik Vance

Nice staff , but a strange dining experience for a first timer. I'd suggest letting the staff guide you through your first order.

I always get the celtice and diced lotus root. Really great hunan food and one of the best Chinese restaurants in Cambridge. Too bad prices are so high otherwise I’d get this every week - Kevin Kao

Food court is awesome, and you can't beat the location. Inexpensive shuttle to Kendall/MIT to explore even more! Great mid range shops and the bigger stores you're looking for like Sears and Best Buy. - Madeline Anderson
