This is my all time favorite ramen place to go to in Minneapolis. It's the closest thing you can get to ramen in Japan. The service is quick and the atmosphere is perfect as well. I definitely recommend coming here.

Ordered stir fry chicken ramen and steak stir fry ramen. Steak was very fatty and chewy. Both dishes were very bland and supposed to have veggies mixed in, there was one green pepper in one dish.
Each dish was over $14 and the total order for two meals was $30. For the price, it was definitely not worth it.
Overall, store bought ramen has more flavor and quality and store bought ramen costs $.60 versus $14 from this establishment. I was excited to try a new restaurant but was grossly disappointed. This opinion was shared by others in our party. -

I got the sweet potato fries, calamari, and the kimchi beef ramen. The flavors were there but the portion is super small. I guess they are one of the few ramen places in town so they can up the price and be stingy with the portion. They only gave me two small piece of beef in my ramen! And i paid extra for an egg and it was only half an egg.
It was pretty empty on a Sunday night. Probably only two other tables. Service was ok. They never came to check up on us but they were nice. I'm not sure if i would come back here when in town again since the portion was super small. -

Had very high expectations of the place but it turned out to be very basic. The buns were really good though and the chasiu was tender - excellent. Ramen itself was bland. As far as the Tuskemen, meaning ramen that you dip into a bowl of hot soup instead of being directly served in the soup, I think it needs some improvement. 1) Tsukemen soup is supposed to be very strong and thick to allow the noodles to capture the flavor of the soup in every bite [not thick or strong enough flavor to capture this - you can drink the soup as is and that is not how Tsukemen works], 2) the noodles were not the ideal type for Tsukemen [should be thicker noodles with "Koshi" but it was harder noodles which would have been more appropriate for Tonkotau ramen], and 3) Tsukemen should have a heavier volume of noodles [simply not enough, 4 bites and you're done]. Overall, bits and pieces of success, but ramen still needs improvement as a whole. 3 stars as I enjoyed the buns and Chasiu.

Walking down Eat Street looking for well, eats, we saw big posters on Ichiddo's windows advertising Japanese skewers (like yakitori). Sold! But when we went in and asked about them, we were told that they didn't have them on the menu yet, and our server didn't have any more information. Hmm. So instead we ordered takoyaki, seasoned cucumber, Tsukemen (dipping) ramen, and beef donburri.
The cucumber was refreshing and savory, but it's a really simple dish. The takoyaki was good, but I'm not sure I like that their version is deep-fried and thus oily. The beef donburri was very well done -- the beef was very tender and a little sweet. Comforting! We didn't like the tsukemen ramen because the broth was a little bland and watery. Overall, the meal was a little hit or miss per item.
