Service: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Cost: 15-20$/person Recommended: Takoyaki, Yakisoba Noodles, Fried Squid, Miso Ramen Overall: It's new popular place in 9th St ! Been here twice since it has opened and it has been a great experience every time. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. The food tastes great and the service is pretty quick. We have tried the following: Fried Squid, Miso Ramen, Agedashi Tofu (hot fried Tofu), Takoyaki, Yakisoba Noodles, and Matcha Mochi Ice Cream. All the food items were very tasty. Top recommendation at 9th Street!

The broth had a really awesome depth of flavor. It was perfect on a cold, rainy day. They were EXTREMELY busy, but still managed to be friendly and get everything out in a decent amount of time.

Probably not the absolute best ramen you’ll ever have, but it was delicious, huge, with a great atmosphere and great service. Highly recommend.

Excellent ramen options for the area! I'm happy we came here during their soft opening. Everyone was so attentive and happy to see customers coming in. Their miso was fantastic and their tonkotsu is pretty good. The eggs we got were slightly over point so the yolk wasn't runny in our case, but still great. Will definitely come back!

Went for their soft opening this week and had a great time! We started with the takoyaki - it was crispy, chewy, salty and sweet! After that we had the pork tonkatsu ramen and the shrimp tempura udon. The ramen was delicious! I loved how the broth wasn’t too salty and the portion of noodles was perfect. My favorite was the shrimp tempura udon. It has a clear broth but it’s still super flavorful. The tofu skin and shrimp tempura were SO good. Don’t forget to try some of the chili oil with it! Service was great, everyone was super friendly and helpful. Will definitely go back! I hope that they have alcoholic drinks available later on.

Best ramen I’ve had in Durham! We went for their soft opening and it was so busy we decided to try again the next night, and the staff remembered us when we came back and were so kind to us! Definitely have found my new go-to ramen spot!

I have been waiting for this restaurant to open for months and they're finally having their soft opening today. Came for dinner, there were already a full house. However, the service was top notch, I can tell they've been working hard all day but still very polite and happy. Of course I ordered my all time favorite - veggie tonkotsu ramen. The broth was tasty, they used the thin noodles which I love. Will come back very soon!
