    Ginger tea formula seems to have changed. Maybe they started using powder. Please don't decrease the quality!

    Great noodle but the worst service ever. The staff are rude need a day at Pret training in customer service. Went to Masala Zone instead where we were greeted warmly.

    I don't get what all the fuss is about. Stupidly long waiting time and seems overpriced. Guess I'm not an appreciator of authentic udon. Give me ramen any day!
