Decided to go out here a couple of weekends ago when I was at Point Reyes. The ramen was good, although I found it kind of pricy. The ramen does not taste extravagantly better than any other ramen place I've been to in the USA. With that being said, that is just about my only criticism of the restaurant. The ramen still packed a nice flavor, and was sufficiently spicy for my taste. It will certainly fill you up. The appetizers were amazing. The Karaage was nice and crunchy, the meat was juicy, and the skewers exploded with flavor every time you took a bite. I was bummed that the Hokkaido Scallops were not in stock when we went. Overall, while I thought that the ramen was expensive, all the food had great taste. The atmosphere inside was nice, too. I recommend to try it at least once if you live near the area.

A good experience all around. Went for lunch on a Saturday. They sat us in the back by the bar so I don't know what the front dining area is like but it doesn't matter since the food was so good. We started with karaage (fried chicken thighs) with a tasty miso- based dipping sauce. Knocked my socks off. Then we devoured the smoked duck salad which was an excellent melange of textures and flavors. I also ordered the flight of sake. We ordered the spicy tantanmen Ramen. They have a variety of Ramen and you can go gluten-free and/or vegetarian if so desired. The tantanmen comes with a gorgeous hunk of crispy pork belly. What impressed us the most were the desserts, believe it or not. The tangerine sorbet and the vanilla cream Gelato were superb. Service was attentive and friendly. I highly recommend and will go back.

Superb ramen — both meat (pork) and vegetarian. The vegetarian uses an oat broth, which sounds weird but tastes delicious. For those who don’t eat pork but want meat, add karagi chicken to the vegetarian broth. The owners, who also own a Thai restaurant in Sebastopol, know how to create an excellent but down to earth restaurant.
