The Best Restaurants and Bars in Carlsbad, California | Eater San Diego

"This ramen shop got its start in Nagoya, Japan, before branching out to East Village and then Carlsbad. Also known as umami ramen, the Nagoya-style tonkotsu ramen with shio broth, dried bamboo, and pork belly cha shu is a favorite while its sushi rolls feature real snow crab, not imitation crab sticks. Its owners, who also run Sushi Gaga, Asa Bakery, and Bar Kamon, are offering drinks like the Senzoku Driver, a vibrant mocktail." - Candice Woo

Ramen noodles with broth must start and have a lingering deeply flavored broth. This is a solid legit Ramen shop with noodles with a good bite and medium thickness. Char siu was sliced pork belly and could be cooked a little more for silky tenderness. We enjoyed chicken curry katsui, spicy and non spicy tonkatsui Ramen. Sushi rolls also yummy and hardy. The floats are cute and worthy of a picture share to friends.

Best ramen and hibiscus margarita I've ever had. Came back with my family the next day. Each broth is flavorful as well as each individual component of the ramen. Very delicious and will come back again when visiting! 10/10.

A nice ramen shop on the side of the Carlsbad mall. First time going and it was splendid to say the least. Customer service was excellent, food arrived quickly and was delicious! See images for what was ordered - it was about $80 for everything pictured before tax and tip. Next time we definitely plan to try their sushi!

Lovely little ramen spot! Ramen flavors were tasty. Portion was good. We tried the yuzu ramen and it was so delectably refreshing for a hot summer day. What really impressed me was the salmon collar. It was massive. Cooked to perfection. Flavor immaculate.

Great food, quality service, friendly staff. The Senzoku Driver is a balanced and innovative mocktail for the price point.

One of my favorite spots! I’ve been here 4 times so far and it’s usually always great. They have vegan options which is nice since my partner is vegetarian. The space is small, so when it’s busy there is a long wait time, but I have yet to experience it. The brussel sprouts are one of my favorites, the first time we came I ordered two. The salmon skin roll was okay, Teri cafe has a better one though. The ramen is so yummy! I’ve had the vegan tan tan, the regular tan tan, and the black ramen. I prefer the vegan and regular tan tan cause I like spicy. The black ramen was yummy, but needed heat. Which was an easy fix, they have a ‘spice rack’ which has like chili oil and stuff so you can add as much heat as you like. We try a new sake every time we come, which is obviously hit or miss depending on what you like. The cocktails are yummy, but no actual alcohol. I’ve only had poor service here once. I brought my brother and his fiancé when they visited and we almost walked out. We were sat down quickly, but a server didn’t come to us until 20-30 minutes after. And it was pretty much like we didn’t exist the entire time we ate. We were seated outside and there two other tables, both occupied, and they were checking on them regularly. We had to stop one of the servers to ask for limes, she never brought them, but continued to wait on the other tables. It was very weird, but the food was still good. And I still recommend the place since every time I’ve been back that hasn’t happened.

Came in with a buddy and was assisted quickly and effectively. Friendly and courteous staff. Got a table with instant service. Took a minute to check out the large menu selections. Asked for the special and got a shop favorite. Good advice I would have to say. Quick delivery and delicious meal. I did not have to wait long for any situation. Check out the amazing food and grand quality of their service.

Best ramen I've had in San Diego county. The appetizers were great too. Cool, clean atmosphere. And the service was amazing. Our server/bartenders were Marisa and Jas. Don't let the mall adjacent location scare you away.

One of our favorite places! It's the only place we've found that I can get my poke, my girlfriend can get her sushi, and my son can get his ramen. With such diversity in taste, it's nice to have a place we can all get what we like. And it all tastes amazing! Not to mention the amazing selection of Saki! Beeshock is always the right answer when I ask my girlfriend "where do you want to go tonight" and she gives me the ol' "you pick" answer, knowing full well she's going to say no to all my recommendations other than beeshock

In 2022, my family and I visited this restaurant multiple times. We kept returning because the food was flavorful and rich, making it one of our favorite spots for a while. However, the customer service was a significant drawback. The staff often had an attitude problem, and it would take at least 15 minutes to get anything, even something as simple as water. This poor service led us to gradually stop going. Today, we decided to give it another shot and ordered food to go online, which was a simple process. When I arrived at the restaurant to pick up the order, the host immediately displayed a major attitude, even worse than before. He seemed clearly annoyed to help me. When I mentioned my order, he just said, "It's not ready," and walked away without any further communication. After I asked for an update, he told me it would be another 15 minutes. When we finally got our food, we were disappointed to find that the quality had significantly declined. The pork on the buns was burnt on the edges, not just charred, and flavorless. The sauce tasted burnt as well. The salmon poke bowls were bland, with the salmon itself being mushy and having a terrible texture. Overall, we won't be returning, especially considering the price we paid for such subpar food, there is far better out there.

We ordered the house made pork Gyoza and it did not disappoint! We also got the black Ramen with grilled corn and the spicy miso Ramen. We also got the Carlsbad roll and my son enjoyed the kids meal! Everything was excellent!

I enjoyed sitting out front for dinner. There were no tables available inside. The server was friendly and informative. I recommend the shoyu karaage for appetizer. Tender chicken and crisp coating. The dipping sauce had a kick to it too. My friend and I both ordered tonkatsu black ramen which was paired perfect with the night breeze outside. The broth was savory and had good flavor. Good green tea too

Our first time at this restaurant was a pleasant experience. It's been on my to-go-to, mental bookmarked, places for a while now. Cobie was our very attentive and informative server. He was fantastic. We as a family like to go out to eat together on the last day of the month. It's been a longstanding tradition. So we all agreed on a ramen joint. I got the creamy vegan vegetable ramen. It came nice and steamy. It's a cozy place and kept pretty orderly. We dined inside and we were able to see all the interactions from the kitchen to bar area. The young staffers were all going above and beyond here. I wish I saw that kind of enthusiasm at other restaurants. I liked that I could get a mocktail here. I opted for the coconut Ube one. It was like a pretty purple mojito. I'd definitely get it again. *I had a great time celebrating my 16th anniversary of being back in my native & sunny San Diego!

Love the outdoor and indoor seating options. Ramens were tasty and reasonably priced. Walk it off afterwards to make room for boba next door

Fantastic ramen and great specials. Wait staff are friendly and attentive. We also tried the salmon ceviche with a bottle of sake and were blown away with how flavorful it all was.

Good ramen joint in Carlsbad. Plenty of ramen add-ons here. I had the katsu curry which was very good as well. No wait for outside table for the early weekend dinner sitting. It got crowded fast afterwards though. Service was both fast and friendly.

Came here on a weekday night for table of 6 with no wait. They were almost full house. The service was great and food arrived promptly. We got the ahi tuna nachos and karaage for appetizers. I was expecting fried wonton skin as the chips but it came with default chips. That was a bit disappointing, the poke mix was a good, large chunks for tuna and the sauce had a little bit of heat, but not too much. The karaage was a hit, large think thigh meat battered and sauced with great flavors. The Nagoya ramen came with really great textured noodles. Tonkotsu soup base had great umami. Overall this was a fantastic place to get ramen. FYI: They charge 18% gratuity.

The service here is wonderful!! Our server was very attentive and so kind. The staff all work together to make everyone's dining experience great. For appetizers we got Takoyaki and their special soft shell crab buns. The Takoyaki came out piping hot and was so flavorful! The soft shell crab buns are featured on their Spring Menu and they were very unique. The crab is fried and seasoned with mayo and pickled onions. I felt that there was too much mayo. For ramen we tried Tonkatsu and Miso ramen-- the broth is ok, I would add extra spice for some additional flavoring. Overall, not a bad ramen place in north county!

Best Ramen hands down. Stephen our server was on his game. Recommended non alcoholic cocktails were off the charts. The Nagoya karaage like panda orange Chicken on steroids. Got the spicy Miso ramen. Fat noodles. Great spice noodle egg and chashu. Yummoliciousness.

This review is about my experience with takeout from this restaurant, not dine in. I haven't dined in, but have passed by this several times. Usually busy, especially during evening hours. Has indoor and outdoor options. A bit pricey for what you get. Pretty decent ramen. I ordered the tonkatsu ramen and ordered for additional items (tofu, bokchoy, and corn). They only give you 3 small pieces of bokchoy, so not sure if it's worth adding. The egg was SALTY- a shot of soy sauce. Overall, pretty good, but everything was on the saltier side.

We ordered a delivery. When a restaurant is sending food out for delivery, they need to carefully check what is going in the bag. We ordered $100 of food. Only two items don't require soy sauce, a ramen and a gyoza. The rest were sushi and poke-which are served with soy sauce. No where on the menu does it list adding soy sauce, so we figured soy would be standard (like Chinese food). However, to be sure, I wrote in the notes of a sushi that I wanted soy sauce on the side. You can see on the receipt that I requested it, and that a person at the restaurant checked it off. We had 4 orders of sushi and no soy sauce to serve it with. So, that is about $75 of sushi that was terrible! As you can tell, we are not at all happy. There were chopsticks included but no spoon for the ramen, despite requesting utensils. Really unhappy customer!

Came here for an early dinner on a weekday. Not too busy at the time, but we were al larger group of 13 and took up about half of the indoor dining space. They also have outdoor and bar seating. staff was helpful, attentive, and patient enough considering our party had 5 kids under the age of 6. We came during happy hour which knocked about $2 off a few sides. The ramen had thin noodles and a good broth. Chicken karaage was flavorful and crunchy. The fries were also a filling appetizer and it's toppings compliment each other well. I would consider this place to lean more towards casual... a bit on the loud side, but it may have just been our rambunctious kids heheh. The prices for me seemed a bit steep, mainly for the appetizers, even with the happy hour pricing. $10ish for gyozas? Located at the mall but with it's own storefont/entrance from the parking lot.. next to happy lemon and close to bath&body.

I headed down to Carlsbad to catch up with a dear friend of mine, and she suggested this place for lunch. Neither of us had been before, and we had an awesome dining experience! We arrived shortly after they opened (perfect timing), greeted with a friendly smile (plus points), and seated right away (yay!). The modern interior had a bar on the left side (cool sake bottles displayed up top), and linear table seating to the right. They have a few tables in front of the resto as well, but we opted to sit inside. Our server was so kind, attentive, and took our order right away. We started with the beautifully presented Takoyaki, as well as, Pork Buns, which were bursting with umami! We both ordered Miso Ramen, which came out shortly after the appies (efficient!). I always do the customary thing and taste the broth as it is, and WOW, it needed absolutely nothing else! Too good! The pork belly just melted in my mouth, and the egg had the most perfectly seasoned jammy yolk! (my fave). Their noodles had the perfect chew, and the added corn niblets were a treat (other places charge extra for that, like why?!?). Our table was full and so were we, but wait, there's always room for dessert! I've had mochi ice cream countless times before, but theirs had the cutest presentation ever! The texture of their mochi was perfectly soft and chewy, which came in 4 pieces of mango, strawberry, green tea, and chocolate! Perfect ending to our meal! Arigato Gozaimasu, Beshock! CHEERS till next time...

Went for a quick day trip to Carlsbad and decided to give this spot a try. Arrived at 2:30pm on a Monday and place was pretty empty as missed the lunch rush. Happy hour started at 3pm but was hungry so ordered a few items. Crispy rice was tasty and ramen was decent. Nothing that blew me away. I was hoping for more options considering I thought it was a tapas place. It was mostly ramen options.

Been to the BESHOCK Ramen in DTSD, and saw that there's one at the Carlsbad Shoppes mall. The dining area is pretty small, but there's also a bar seating and small patio area with heat lamps. The service was very friendly whenever there was interaction, but there was a little lack of follow-up. Maybe it was inexperience, overall very friendly though. Tried the Miso Ramen, and although it's the basic ramen.. still runs nearly $17, so this place isn't super great value. The portions and offerings are also not very big. I cleaned the whole bowl of every oz of broth and noodle. The flavor was pretty basic, nothing spectacular. The ramen was pretty nice and thick/bouncy. I normally don't like thick ramen noodles, but these were good. The food was okay, the restaurant has nice decor/vibe but I'm not sure it's worth the price tag.

bad service from the moment i walked in. Forget to bring 2 items to our table. Then they charged me for items i didnt order. when i noticed the itemized receipt with additional items they pretended to refund the transaction but refused to provide a receipt to confirm the refund. Its been 7 days and the charge is still on my card. Scam!!!

Came here on a Friday night, there was an estimated 20 minute wait, took my # and said they'd text when a table was ready, took maybe 10 minutes of walking around the mall when I got the text our table was ready. Hostess was kind gave us a warmer option to sit at the bar where we couldn't feel the cold coming in from the front door. Server was knowledgeable, helpful and attentive even though it got pretty busy in there every seat even outside in the cold was full. My BF ordered their monthly special, I ordered their spicy miso ramen with chicken. We both really liked our meals, the server said a lot of people don't believe him when he warns about the super spicy ramen, so I only ordered the spicy, I love spice and after tasting it I would try to super spicy next time. We would totally come here again, the serving was huge but delicious!

It's a good looking ramen shop located on the outside of the mall. Parking is free in the lot but you may have to drive around a bit to find an open spot. For a totally decadent and delicious and absolutely not authentic appetizer, get the Dirty Fries. It's pork and different sauces over French fries. It's pretty darn good. The ramen bowls are solid. The spicy miso bowl was good and decently spicy but the Tonkatsu (black) ramen bowl was more flavorful, especially if you like garlic. The Nagoya chicken bowl is filled with big pieces of chicken karaage over rice. The chicken is delicious and you won't be disappointed with this dish. Service was very friendly and attentive but we were asked every few minutes if our plates could be cleared. No, we're obviously still eating...is there a shortage of plates in the kitchen? Just chill out. Solid spot for ramen. They get busy so you might have to wait a bit for a table.

I am so pumped to have made it over to Beshock Ramen. As soon as I walked up I was greeted by a super friendly gentleman who ended up being the most amazing server! The food was absolutely delicious! I had a spicy pork ramen and my friend had the basic chicken ramen. Both were so good! I had to have a little sushi on such a hot day and added a salmon avocado roll l. It was super fresh and mouth watering! They had the cutest little drink on the menu which was basically a sprite with blue cherry flavoring topped with ice cream shaped like a cute little animal. I just had to try it! Beshock is such a cute little restaurant with good patio seating and indoor seating. The restaurant isn't too big which was great because it allowed the severs to give everyone full attention even though the place was packed! I can't wait to come back! I just found my new go- to Ramen spot!

We are visiting the area and picked this place because of the high reviews and that they were open late. Located right on the outside of the mall, parking is plentiful and easy to find. Our group of 5 arrived after 8pm and we were seated right away. I ordered the beef rib ramen and hubby ordered the beshock umami ramen. Unfortunately, we weren't that impressed. The flavor was okay but not the best. Service was pretty good and attentive. Overall it is good for what it is and open a little late for those late night eats, but wouldn't be my first choice in ramen.

We came on a Saturday night around 6p.m and didn't have a problem getting a seat. What I did have a problem finding was a parking spot! There were none around the area. I had to park on the side of the mall toward the abandoned Islands restaurant. It wasn't a big deal but being new to the place I went aisle to aisle in front of the Beshock to find all parking spaces taken. The waitress was very pleasant and helpful. She made some suggestions but I looked at the picture of the katsu curry ramen and was set on it. I enjoyed the curry broth. It was thick and there were plenty of noodles, corn, egg and katsu. It's just that the katsu didn't look like the picture in the menu. The katsu was thicker than I expected. not sure I'd get it again but it was filling. The noodles were good. 7/10. My friend got the vegan ramen. I tried the broth and for vegan it was pretty good! 9/10. We tried Gonzo and Beshock in Carlsbad and we world say we liked it here better!

We order black (garlic) ramen and miso ramen. Portion size ran small, so starting with some appetizers would be ideal. Black ramen was really tamed in terms of flavor--ironically it was just too heavy on garlic oil. Miso was a bit too sweet; my husband seemed to enjoy it but it was not my cup of tea. Overall service was good, food was decent (7/10). But we just did not find it unique.

Located at the Carlsbad Mall. Entrance is on the outside NOT inside the mall. It was lunch time when I arrived and it was quite busy inside but luckily they had outdoor seating with shade so we didn't have to wait for a table. The ramen here is "ok" nothing that shouts out incredible to your pallet. The broth was decent. Ok flavor but more on the watered down side for a Tonkotsu. The noodles were ok, nothing really special. Nice alternative to have in the area but a lot of other places to checkout.

I love this place. I found it last week at the mall with a few buddies and I'm already planning to take my girlfriend here. The ramen is incredible, the appetizers are all so good, and the sushi is great too. The staff is nice, the restaurant is clean. Honestly what more can you ask for besides good food, nice staff, and a clean kitchen?

Food was great however service with one of the waiter was eh... he seems to be easily annoyed when we check and see if there were any seatings indoor after waiting for a while. We were then seated outdoor but he was our server and got annoyed after asking him for his service the second time.

This was our first visit to Beshock. I can guarantee we will return. First of all the staff members are just great. We were greeted and seated by Jazz. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable on a cool evening. She gave us seating options and got multiple heaters on for us. Our server, Marissa, was just as accommodating and pleasant. She gave some excellent food suggestions with some special add ons. She came over multiple times, as did Jazz to make sure everything was okay. The food was excellent. As I mentioned we tried the suggestions and none of us were disappointed. There were four of us and we had two different ramens and a bowl. You cannot go wrong with any option. All in all a great experience.

I definitely made my own ramen. Spicy miso broth. Double noodle, tofu, chicken and egg. My husband was spicy miso broth with the same except he put in garlic and corn. No eggs. This was at the Carlsbad location by the movie theater and mall. About a month ago I spoke to someone on the phone who said it wasn't online anymore but I could order it. I ordered it and she quoted me $33. I got to the restaurant after a really long shift and it was $74. So I'm more than sure I'm right and you are incorrect.

We came here after a long day of shopping and wanted to take a snack break in between. It was a Tuesday afternoon, so not that busy. They have great happy hour deals! It's a small spot so I can imagine they probably get busy during the weekends We had: - Philadelphia Roll (4/5): cream cheese was overpowering but overall good flavor - Gyoza (4/5): good crunch, but the sauce given was a little salty - Pork Buns (5/5): this was our favorite, the flavors blended well together We were too full to try the ramen, but would come back to try it!!

Good food but disappointing service. We were looking forward to ramen on a cold evening after we found Beshock on Yelp. The restaurant is located in the Carlsbad mall alongside other eateries. The restaurant looked cool inside where we were seated. The server came in fairly quickly and we placed the order. Because we were ordering very spicy ramen we enquired on the spiciness levels first. Since the spiciness levels were high we were advised that the spicy oil can be ordered on a side which we agreed to. The ramen came in with the spicy oils inside the broth. When we mentioned to the waiter that we were told that the oils supposed to come separately, the waiter replied that that he never told us that and instead the meat was given to us on a separate dish. We were not offered replacement and the waiter didn't own up to his mistake and simply lied to us. Very unprofessional and disappointing! I don't recommend this establishment at all.

Nice spot for ramen at the mall, but small space. We were able to be seated indoor, but they do have some tables outside. The menu is a good size and service was quick. The tables are a little squished because it's a small space. We were pushed up against a diving wall and we barely could fit our two bowls of ramen and two servings of gyoza plus our waters. Ramen was tasty and the gyoza was super delicious! It wasn't too loud and while we were next to the bathrooms we didn't experience nothing bad. The ramen is reasonably priced so if you're looking for a good place to get some ramen and are at the mall give it a try!

A great place to hit if you are in the mood for a quick ramen meal with bomb drinks and apps. The restaurant itself is beautifully designed, especially the bar, but it is quite small overall. The hostess and our server were welcoming and very attentive. We were seated right away this time, but there is usually a wait time on the weekends. Outdoor seating has heaters as well. The drinks are always yummy and my go-to is the lychee tini. Not too sweet but definitely has a nice lychee kick to it. I also love the hibiscus margarita! The spicy garlic edamame is spicy but not overly so. I have enjoyed the ahi poke chips and takoyaki in the past as well. I always go for the black garlic oil tonkotsu ramen, at any ramen place if available. I wasn't impressed with it here, but it was still good. I was craving ramen in general so it hit the spot. Noodles could be fresher and the broth itself seems watered down. The pork belly and egg were cooked perfectly though. A great vibe overall. Definitely great for 2-6 people groups.

I used to order from this restaurant AT LEAST twice a week for their chicken ramen, but they seem to have changed their whole recipe. I like to eat good tasting food that is healthy, so I am really disappointed. It's very oily now and with a weird flavor. The regular meal usually comes with 3 white meat chicken chashu pieces, so I pay$2.50 more to add extra chicken chashu for another 3 extra white meat slices at best.. (I've been sent 2 many times...). The extra portion of "chicken chashu" I ordered this time...they sent was dark meat. And the half egg, they sent. was just sad. Poor quality control. Thoroughly disappointed with all the changes.

Happy hour review: Drinks are actually a great detail with 4 dollar pints and 7 dollar cocktails. Our pork bun was alright with the bun being pretty fluffy and moist but the pork was uninspiring. Black (garlic) ramen was flavorful and the pork nice and tender. Umami ramen was a lot more bland with a more Mido soup tasting broth (a lot less umami than the black ramen surprisingly). Noods were fine and as usual Tldr: Good happy hour drinks but food is so so. Might come back just to drink next time Food: 5/10 Service: 7/10 Vibes: 6/10 Value: 5/10

On a recent Wednesday date night, we decided to try somewhere other than our usual nearby sushi spot. I was feeling sushi and my date was feeling ramen, so this was a great compromise. Although BESHOCK is located at a mall, the experience didn't feel like it. We sat on the patio, which had a fire pit table, heater towers, and speakers, and the server brought out a cute little lamp to provide some extra light. Service was attentive, prompt, and friendly. I ordered the summer cocktail special, which had tumeric in it, and was delicious! My date ordered the Falling for Ube cocktail, which he enjoyed as well. For food I ordered the Baja Blast sushi roll that must be a newer menu item than those on other Yelp reviews/menu photos - it had tuna both inside and out, topped with avocado and micro greens and little dried bits of citrus - yummy! My date ordered the Black Ramen, which he demolished but said the pork was a little dry and wished there was another topping included (would've liked corn but cost a whopping extra $1.50)! Overall a nice experience! A shame I didn't take photos of the menu because the Yelp ones all seem at least a few months old. Next time I will!

LOVE this ramen place. It doesn't top Convoy, but it's the best one in North County. I've had their Tonkotsu Ramen, Beef Rib Ramen, and Tan Tan Ramen - all so good! In the picture we have their Spicy Garlic Edamame and Spicy Miso Ramen. They were both delicious! Especially after coming back from vacation.

This used to be my go to place for RAMEN. So happy we finally had an authentic ramen place in North County. But lately? Tonight will likely be my last visit unless someone convinces me that it's gotten better. I ordered Nagoya Tonkotsu Ramen. The pork actually smelled artificial. I fould not finish it. And the broth? Definitely not tonkotsu broth. No thick flavor. Just diluted and lukewarm soup. I'd say MenyaUltra also dropped in quality too, especially the noodle. New source? Some of the noodle in my ramen was clumped up, indicating the lack of care in putting noodles into the bowl. Just like I hate spaghetti that sticks together, I hate that in Ramen. I almost sent it back. Anyway, I do not know what's happening there but it requires significant improvements before I go back there.

Came here on mother's day and we were so happy to stumble upon this ramen spot after checking out the ninja xchange. It was around 2pm and they were able to get us seated pretty quickly with 4 people and 1 baby. The ramen itself was delicious! I loved that they had corn on the ramen. The curry katsu was so good as well. I would definitely come again. They had comfortable seating for a family and I would definitely come again!

I love this place! They have the best vegan noodle bowl! I like the veggie one, not the one with fake meat. I also love their fried tuna sushi appetizer. So good! Small restaurant, but has great nonalcoholic and alcohol drinks. Seating outside.

I was craving sushi and decided on BESHOCK Ramen on a whim. What a great decision. I tried several dishes and a bowl of ramen. The dishes arrived in a timely. Each dish filled its respective plate and bowl and left MT!!! The service was fantastic. The food was fantastic. Do not pass this place by. Park go in and enjoy.

Food (5/5 stars): I'm obsessed with Black Garlic Oil Ramen and BESHOCK satisfied my craving. The broth was super flavorful and I recommend adding chili oil. The ramen egg was cooked perfectly and the chashu was so tender and delicious. Overall, I highly recommend! Experience (5/5 stars): * Price: reasonable * Wait Time: minimal on a Friday night * Service: very good and friendly * Parking: there's a parking lot * Ambiance: it's a very nice, modern restaurant

I've been here for Ramen in the past, and it was delicious. I most recently went for happy hour, and the deals were unbeatable! Monday through Friday happy hour until 6 PM. All cocktails were $7! Their cocktails were so great, the falling for Ube was my favorite. Their little outside patio area had heat lamps and a cute little fire pit in the middle of one of their tables. It was very nice to enjoy being outside. Service was also great, and our server was very helpful in ensuring that we made the most of our happy hour

This cocktail is incredible and tastes so GOOD! The Ramen is always so delicious and the staff are friendly and attentive. They have a nice open outdoor patio if you want to enjoy your meal under the sun or the moon. I Highly recommend trying Beshock out if you haven't already!
