Grace was phenomenal and we had the pleasure of meeting Jeanette as well. Great service, wonderful atmosphere. Everything was so clean and the food was so delicious. The broth on their Kinya Ramen was perfection. Definitely come hungry. Had the Chirashi as well since I am allergic to avocado. So much food and the furikake on the rice was a nice touch.

The café features a pleasant, spacious dining hall. Surprisingly, however—perhaps because we were seated right in the middle—I felt that the tables were positioned a bit too close together. It has some sort of cafeteria vibe.
The servers were very welcoming and very nice.
As a complimentary treat, this café serves up some truly delicious kimchi. We ordered an eel and avocado roll, which tasted good. My daughter enjoyed the ramen, though—to be honest—it was nothing special; you can find tastier ramen elsewhere in Durham. The tea, however (we ordered both green and jasmine), was served in stylish teapots—but as for the taste? Just warm water with a faint hint of tea. Absolutely flavorless! I'm really surprised. Usually, I love the tea at ramen places so much. -
This was seriously so incredible. The food here is so delicious! If you come here you must try out the sushi as well it is such a hit. The lava roll was perfect in terms of fish to rice ratio and really hit the spot. If you’re ready to splurge definitely get the toro it is so good. The ramen broth is so deep in its flavor, I highly recommend the Kinya ramen. The ramen combo is such good value!

Delicious! 5 stars!🌟 We started with the edamame and pan fried gyoza. Each plate was wonderful! The dipping sauce for the gyoza was amazing- a little kick to it. For our main course we had the shrimp ramen and the Chintan ramen and they were delicious! All ingredients were fresh, hot and flavorful. For dessert we had the mochi chocolate and mango ice cream. Delicious! This restaurant is at the top of my list to return to when we’re back in Chapel Hill. Well done!

I’ve tried many ramen spots in the state, and this is the only one that truly hits the mark. As an Asian, I have high standards for authenticity, and this place delivers. The Tonkotsu broth is incredibly rich yet has a very "clean" and refined taste—not overly salty or heavy.
We also ordered the fried squid (calamari) as a side, and it was perfectly crispy and fresh. The atmosphere and decor are top-notch, making the whole dining experience very pleasant. Pro-tip: If you have the option, definitely go with the white noodles! Highly recommended for any serious ramen lover.
