Samurai Noodle

The service was fast and attentive. But the Ramen itself was nothing great. I ordered the tofu miso vegan ramen. My husband usually gets the tonkatsu ramen and he always liked it. The miso broth lacked any flavor or depth and was very salty. I have had better luck with ramen made from the frozen ramen kits from Asian markets.

The place seemed a bit shabby, there were flies all around and it looked like nobody cared about it. But I must say the ramen here was perfect! I had taken miso vegan ramen, and it was really good! The broth was perfect and the noodles were cooked to the point and not soggy! I got chilli garlic oil and another chilli powder like seasoning to amp up the spice level and they charged 4 dollars for it! Which honestly felt a lil too much as it is usually given for free. All in all the ramen was soo good. They could do better with the cleanliness part here.

Located in the U-District, this is a nice ramen store. The place is not too big and it can be difficult at times to find a seat but it is worth the wait. The staff was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and served in big portions. The gyozas were especially noteworthy. The prices were fair. Overall, a pleasant experience.
