    Been here 50+ times
    Sample the menu by ordering and sharing a variety of dishes, and don't you dare sell yourself short by skipping the pork buns! All of the noodle dishes are absolutely delicious.

    So delicious! The bone marrow was excellent and my ramen rich and hearty. If you can, sit outside. It gets super hot in there!

    Bone marrow. There, I've said it. Smallish eatery that prepares wonderful non pretentious food. Asian noodle bowl Mecca. Reservations a must. Valet or street. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

    You must try the Bone Marrow. It's been on the menu forever. Also, the Ramen is getting all kinds of awards lately. Yum!!

    The lobster broth is sour. Get the pork shoulder broth with ramen and a poached egg. The pork buns are a banger. The prosciutto appetizer is good but nothing special. The ice cream is sturdy. Great st

    The poached lobster ramen is tangy but add some chili sauce and it is so good with a poached egg.

    Escargot dumplings are awesome. And the mousse cake is ridiculous.

    This place is over priced, the ramen is generic. Don't go here in the summer, the place is 10 degrees hotter inside than it is outside. And I'm a dawg.

    Lobster Ramen is great, in the winter ask for a table away from the door.

    Two words. Lobster ramen. Adding a poached egg doesn't hurt either!

    They can accommodate a vegan diet, just make sure you ask and are ready for an inordinate amount of dirty looks.

    Unfortunately, the best part about our meal was the soft serve ice cream included on the prefix menu. :(

    Average food - If you like authentic pork buns, skip these. They were undercooked, made with what tasted like frozen bread dough and sauce from a jar.
