    Intimate. Ramen is smaller than the huge portions we're used to but it's enough and completely delicious. Cash only!!!

    We were here for the sushi and it's excellent. The five piece rolls might cause a challenge of you share, though.

    Ramen here is okay - get the yaoyao if anything. The poke tuna and scallop sushi however is incredible!

    Don't fuck around. Get the aloha taco sampler. Unless you've got a hankering for great, rich ramen. (cash only)

    Their tofu ramen is not vegetarian, their vegan ramen is a cold noodle salad. Go for a hot sake toddy instead!

    Here's the thing: I'm going to say YaoYao with an egg, but you're not going to hear me. So I'll say it again: YaoYao with an egg. YAOYAO. WITH AN EGG.

    Kalifornia roll is cheap and the best I've ever had. The secret is their bonito flake infused soy sauce.

    Ramen is way too salty. I thought so, my wife thought so, the people across from us mentioned their salmon Raman being equally salty and so too did the couple next to us!

    Don't order off the cocktail menu since they have a limited bar and don't really know to make anything that's not on the menu.

    Out of the many ramen places I’ve tried , this is one of the most underwhelming ramen (Yao Yao) I’ve had to date. I don’t understand why this place has the rating it does for ramen.
