Top-notch vegan ramen that is really thoughtfully crafted and good value.
Coming from Vancouver, BC, where (vegan) ramen is plentiful and top-notch, I'm often wary about trying it elsewhere. But this exceeded expectations big time. I visited for lunch. You order up at the counter, and they bring out your order. I ordered:
-Fukuryu Salad ($7.50 plus tax; vegan) -- frankly, a really nicely done salad. You get various kinds of lettuce, including kale, green cabbage, romaine, and maybe some iceberg, along with cherry tomatoes, and crunchy noodles as a garnish, with a sweet salad dressing that works very well. Really great salad. 5/5
-Vegan Ramen ($15 plus tax) -- this was a very generous portion, coming with perfectly cooked and plentiful noodles, slightly sweetened and spiced marinated tofu, wakame (seaweed), corn, shredded bamboo shoots, and green onion. Of course, what makes or breaks ramen is the broth, and the broth was very miso-dominant, with a great, salty, umami character with lots of depth. I savoured every spoonful. Excellent. 5/5
Both items came out in under 10 minutes. Service was solid. The place itself was very comfortable and chill.
Loved everything about the place. Highly recommended.
