    Wow is all I can say. We came for the Ramen (Midwest Shoyu and Akahoshi Miso), stayed for the Chashu rice - 2 orders it was amazing. It was absolutely phenomenal food, quick service. Watched the Ramen Lord in action and he even presented our Ramen at the counter! 10/10, eagerly looking forward to our next experience there.

    I had ordered the 12 oz filet medium. The steak came to me heavily seared- to the point the steak was tough and dry 3/4" deep from the outside of the steak. Filets are NEVER to be heavily and deeply seared on a filet. I did not complain at the time-- as I was grateful for the meal -- as I won it on the drawing in the casino. And I was appreciative that I did not have to pay for it.

    First time here. Tremendous blend of tastes from start to finish ! We tried 3 unique cocktails and were not disappointed. The Fig Carré is my favorite. For starters the Potted Carrots and Shaved Butternut First timers & Squash were delicious! Of the pastas our favorite ended up being Stuffed Farfalle with Pappardelle coming in 2nd. The rainbow trout was excellent & light. We so enjoyed every taste! The butter cake was THE BOMB. Service was attentive and top notch . Was exceptional culinary experience.
