Koji Ramen - Spring

I will not be returning to this restaurant. While the hostess who took our order was fantastic, the food was disappointing. I had dined here a long time ago, and everything was excellent back then, so it's clear that something has changed. The menu used to offer a much wider selection than it does now. I ordered the spicy Mistel-Kimichi-Ramen, which was supposed to have pork belly, but what I received was more like a piece of dried chicken. The broth had the consistency of tomato soup and was simply unappetizing. My cousin ordered a rice bowl with pork belly; it ended up being just a bowl of rice with a few small strips of pork. She didn't even finish it and sent it back. Instead, she got the wings, which were nothing special—just fried wings smothered in sweet chili sauce. This place is nothing like it used to be, which is such a shame because it was once really good.

I really enjoyed the artworks and hip atmosphere of the restaurant. Here is the miso ramen and Diablo chicken ramen, I was slightly disappointed because they had run out of hot saki on the day we went but the great service and delicious ramen made up for it. We enjoyed our late lunch here.

Had a pretty great experience here. Cocktails were great, service was fantastic, and the food was spectacular. The miso soup was one thing that surprised me because it tasted a lot more authentic than any other place I've had it; the shaggy dog roll was pretty good, it was a perfect level of spicy where both I and my girlfriend could enjoy it. Finally the ramen. I ordered the chicken ramen and my girlfriend ordered the tonkatsu shoyu ramen. Both were great and had plenty of noodles and a heaping of veggies in both. You definitely won't leave here hungry. 5/5 will definitely drop in here in the future

Let's start with the positives: the atmosphere, the staff, and the music were all pleasant. However, the most significant issue was the food, which was quite disappointing. If you have experienced authentic Japanese cuisine during a trip to Japan, you'll likely be let down by what they offer here. The karaage was small and a dark brown color, while the takoyaki had a tough exterior. If you're looking for a taste of Japanese food, this might suffice, but don't expect it to compare to the genuine article.

Save your money and choose another restaurant. Aside from my wonderful waitress, everything else was disappointing—the food and the owner in the kitchen, who shouts and lacks any customer service skills. It's truly unfortunate. The food is not authentic at all; this is not Asian cuisine. Trust me, if you’re looking for real Asian food, don’t come here. I really hope my waitress finds a better place to work soon, as it seems like the owner is not treating his employees well.
