"When it comes to flavour, this pint-sized, family-run Japanese lunch counter punches far above its weight. Noren’s short, affordable menu zooms in on takoyaki (octopus balls) and okonomiyaki (savoury pancakes), but incorporates weekly bento boxes and specials into the mix, with veggie soba noodles and Hiyashi (chilled) udon recently making appearances. Seating inside is limited, but takeout is always an option." - Joel Balsam, Valerie Silva, Eater Staff
