    They have solid gyoza and miso ramen. Tempura plate is huuuuge. Always have to stop before the plate is clean or bowl is empty with a satisfied onaka ippai!

    One of my favorite places for Japanese noodles in the city! Try the yaki udon and karrage ramen- portions are large and good price!

    It's not listed on the menu, but for $4 you can order a generously sized portion of homemade kimchi. Delicious!

    Gigantic ramen bowls. Got the wonton ramen--a little too salty but hearty and soul-soothing on a cold evening.

    if you happen to be there when they have a sushi bar (sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not!) then order omakase and ask for fish. you won't be disappointed.

    Cheap big bowls of decent ramen, but they close August 31!

    If ever you go to ebisu and the wait is long, hotei has the same sushi menu since they're both owned by te same family.

    My sushi did not taste or look fresh. Not sure if I'll eat here again.

    Rolls are terribly made and fall apart on the plate!
