I wanted this restaurant to be really good. The outdoor garden was amazing vibes. Although that is where anything good about this establishment begins and ends. You feel very unwelcome from the moment you walk into the establishment and service continuously got worse. Several times throughout the night our waiter got lost and we were met with horrible attitudes. The food was bland and lacked taste

The food was good. Spicey Miso was dope! Did not like the hot saki. I know this is a Japanese style restaurant but the "shareable???" appetizers were super small and the ramen bowls were huge but didnt have a lot of ramen noodles in them in my opinion. Ambience was cool. It can get pretty loud. They definitely need more bathrooms for the public. And pay attention to that group gratuity that's slapped on your receipt. It's on the receipt as it should be but it's place is a bit deceiving when splitting a group check. I asked for a new set chopsticks for my soup and they never came so I ended up grabbing a set from another table. The place is on the smaller side which is not an issue. But we were informed that one of our tables were going to be taken, if the restaurant started to fill up (we had three extra guests arriving).

The vibe is nice and the menu is nice too! Part owners is Pusha T and the music and events Seem to be influenced by his interests in the company. The Japanese styles waves in the hallway just make the space appear to being flowing together. Upfront there is more of a Vietnamese aesthetic which is cute. In the back gives a dope, indoor/ourdoor but private vip feel.

Delicious ramen and spring rolls! Temperature checked and hand sanitizer right when you walk in. Loved the music and atmosphere

Great atmosphere, the drinks were incredible, service was good. Need to come back n try. The yummy food soon. The No Cap Drink was BOMB

I miss this place bad. 😭 the ramen was so good along with the drinks and the appetizers were even better. Me and my friend always ended up getting a second order of whatever appetizer we got. Super sad to see it’s still closed and the vibe was *chefs kiss*. The service though ??? Less than mediocre. Every time we came the our server would be M. I. A. majority of the night.

First and foremost black owned!!! Second service Jazz was spectacular, the definition of service and delight. The food ok but the hookah and service make this place A one!!!

We had a good experience here. We only had one dish and it was Lizzie’s Noodles - it was excellent. We love spicy dishes and this fit the bill...so good. The cocktails were solid. We happened to be there during happy hour so the final bill was surprisingly low. I took off one star because of the loud music upstairs...it’s a little much for dinner. Next time we will sit downstairs which is more of the cool restaurant vibe we prefer.
