Best Ramen in JTown
The noodles were the feshest I've had out of all the Ramen places in JTown, the broth was flavorful, and they have good flavor combo's (like friend chicken!). The place is not very fancy, but it tastes very good.
This place has a special veg menu too, which I have not seen at any of the other Ramen places.
Me and the guys went to the Moster at Shrine the night before and stayed out till 5 am. Then we woke up in a hot hotel room hungover and exhausted. We went to Daikokuya, my go-to hangover cure joint, and then decided we couldn't wait in line for 2 hours in the blistering LA heat. So we went down the street and went to Mr Ramen.
There was no wait. The restaurant was full. Only one waitress was working. It took forever to get our order taken. However they were good about water refills, which was crucial because we were all extremely dehydrated from 8 straight hours of dancing/chainsmoking/drinking/other things.
The menu was fantastic. We liked that one of the guys, a vegetarian, was able to get a hearty and delicious bowl of ramen noodles not made from pork stock. We also loved the affordability and the variety of combinations. It seemed like an accomodating restaurant.
The food itself was delicious. I got the pork bone ramen with fried rice, and we also had miso, veggie, and soy ramen, tonkatsudon, and gyoza at the table. I liked the gyoza here - perfectly cooked skin, not too small, nicely stuffed and fried to a perfection served with a light ponzu sauce. The noodles were delicious - perfectly chewy, savory broth, seasoned perfectly and not too rich. I'd like to have had more chopped green onions and a whole boiled egg as opposed to a tiny sliver, that was boring.
This place would be a good alternative to Daikokuya when on Sunday mornings the wait is ridiculous.
The ramen is pretty good here. Their chicken curry (not cutlet) was good, I think. I really like how the curry was not too spicy.
The ramen soup base was good. I ordered the soy sauce soup base and my boyfriend ordered the miso based soup; I also ordered their Gyoza--I did not enjoy it too much.
Ultimately, I would definitely eat here again.
The ramen is good there. I like the spicy soup and the chasiu.
Stay away from the fried rice. We had it one time and it felt like eating salt.
The waitresses there are very nice and friendly, but they are very very very SLOOOOOW. I don't know if they do it on purpose, but if you want a quick noodle stop, then this place is not for you. We have been there twice, and each time it took more than 1.5 hrs to have our meal.
I go here when ever I want one the best salad ever!! and two a nice bowl of Ramen. Its great the service is great the food is great honestly its just great :) if you love Noodles you will love it here
Gotta be honest...
I can't remember what I like about Mr. Ramen.
There is not particular dish that pops out at me. The flavors aren't really as full and developed as they should be.
Reasons why I love Mr Ramen:
#1: Has a whole vegetarian menu.
#2: Largest bowl of Ramen I've ever seen
#3: The most random people eat here (hipsters, old nerdy white dudes, Japanese families, and artsy fartsy types alike)
#4: Lets me show off my uncanny ability to use chopsticks.
HOLLA!
First visit was due to Daikokuya being overcrowded, as always, but the second (and soon more) was a planned one. I like this place! We opted for the pork bone ramen to make it closer in flawor to that of D, and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered mine spicy, and it was a nice bite, no insanity like Orochon (although I do like insanity from time to time). The soup had plenty of fixings, including the great fatty piece of pork, and this is coming from a girl who can't stand fat on meat.
The gyozas were great and the curry rice was good too. Had 2 orders of the the mini bowl, 4 gyozas and and curry rice each and a large beer, for around $30. Not bad! I just wish they had that awesome salad dressing Daikokuya offers. Maybe they do, I just haven't ordered salad yet?
R-Amen! Finally, a noodle shop that understands what "vegetarian ramen" really means. Veggies in meat broth does not equal vegetarian, other restaurants! Here, they've got a whole menu of options for those of us who are carnivorously challenged!
Before going to Mr. Ramen, I'd been craving noodles for a long time. Being a huge ramen fan back before taking the veggie, I wasn't just going to settle for a water-based soup. Thankfully, Mr. Ramen makes the grade. Their miso broth is bomb-diggity delicious and left me very satisfied. The service was prompt and polite. Also, the location is great, right across the street from the Little Tokyo mall.
My BF and I drove up from SD to try some LA ramen shops. We wanted to go to Daikokuya, but the waiting list was way long on a Sat afternoon. We walked down a few stores to Mr Ramen. We had eaten here a few years ago, but couldn't remember the quality. That said, i wanted to order the chasu ramen with shoyu broth, but they were out of chasu!! So I settled for the spicy pork and tofu. The pork was ground and not spicy at all. It was hard to find the pork mixed in with the noodles, which means there wasn't much of it, tho the tofu was ample. The broth was so-so and there was nothing else except bits of green onions. The noodles were tasty and firm tho. My BF ordered the beef ramen. It came with lots of bean sprouts and the beef appeared to be shabu shabu beef, boiled. There wasn't much marinade or seasoning to the beef and was a bit chewy. We also ordered the gyoza and have had much better elsewhere. There were 6 pcs and all veggie. It appeared to be crispy, but was more soft. I prefer my gyozas with some meat, to give it some substance. We will probably not go back, esp since we have been going to the market and buying our own fresh ramen, which is way better than the dried instant type!
two words: bento box
Oh dear, another spot that didn't really "hit the spot" for me especially with my constant search for awesome sashimi and ramen. Welcome folks, to the place they call in LA, Mr. Ramen. It is located on the same strip of street with about competition up the butt (6 other locations I recall, with the infamous Daikokuya boasting an ongoing line day and in out). After one of the LA Bboy/Bgirl competitions, myself and Mr. Flood wanted to grab a quick bite after throwing down in the cypher circles. One little, two little, three little ramen spots, and so far nothing.
By default, of curiosity and somewhat A-OK price range, and hunger we come across to this spot. The wonderful Japanese waitresses welcomed our business and sat us down on a makeshift bench, table, chair area. Looking through the menu and being shocked a bit here and there, this is what we ordered:
-1 order of Ramen Combo; consists of: Ramen and 1/2 order of Friend Rice
-1 order of Ramen Combo; consists of: Ramen and Gyoza (6 pieces)
Side Toppings (optional but ordered)
-Hardboiled Egg
-Seaweed
-Chashu Pork
(mostly with my combo order)
After probably a good 15 minute wait we were finally given our orders. The Flood, dived in with his chopsticks and angrily consumed all his food in flurry. Whereas I took a picture for reference and then gazed at how different their preparation was to Gomen (Fullerton), Shin Sen Gumi (Fountain Valley), Daikokuya (Little Tokyo) and etc. There were huge slabs of chashu pork that made sure you got the bang for your buck. Grey and red in contrasting texture, with the bone left intact in some of the pieces. Three boiled eggs sat in the miso broth, amidst the rich sauna all the other toppings, especially with the medium slices of thick seaweed drifting afloat as well. Green onion brigade was definitely in full force, like the US Navy fleet sailing to the outskirts of the Pacific Ocean.
Now the taste test, the broth itself was pretty rich and somewhat thick. Of miso and soy sauce elements, it brought together a somewhat murky lake for the food. Viscosity is the name of the game, and with all the toppings, ramen, and broth it surely made it a point. The boiled egg was consistent to quality, seaweed was chewy but definitely traditional (none of that stripped flake texture, I'm used to in other places), and the meat was a little short of spectacular. It didn't help that because the pork pieces were huge, because of that the rubbery texture and my teeth clashed like a WWII re-enactment. The gyoza was definitely refreshing but not my thing, if you're a vegetarian or vegan you would love it. It was mostly little pieces of lettuce and another vegetable I couldn't put my finger on. Hardly any meat, which disappointed me but maybe not for a vegetarian lover (if I had one at the moment).
Overall, we probably spent about $35.00 plus tax and tip (Mr. Flood covered the bill so didn't get an exact amount). The service was definitely friendly, but the ramen didn't sway me like other customers. Maybe Santouka and Shin-Sen Gumi, are in cahoots to keep me from enjoying other ramen spots? Probably just spoiled with their gelantenous chashu or custom noodle preparations? Hopefully other places, will far better but I think I'll stick to Daikokuya next time I'm in the area. Arigato!
I've had a major ramen craving for weeks now and after some investigating I found a ramen place in DTLA that offers vegetarian ramen: Mr. Ramen. Not only do they have vegetarian ramen options, but they have even gone to the trouble of making a separate vegetarian menu (available upon request). Their vegetarian menu also has several options of broth and a few topping options (seaweed, scallions, tofu, etc). If you were to order off the regular menu and create a vegetarian ramen dish for yourself you would end up spending more for these items, so it's lovely that they made a menu where vegheads like me get charged the same as everyone else.
The ramen does not disappoint. The portions are HUGE! They offer a mini-ramen option but I'm not a sheepish eater so I chose the regular version. Having stared into a bowl of ramen the size of my head, I can now say that if you're looking for typical lunch portions, go for the mini-ramen! The ramen itself was very good and the noodles were perfectly cooked. While I enjoyed my meal a lot I am hoping that the next time I go back and try a different broth I will have an even better experience.
I ordered the chicken curry ramen and it was pretty flavorless. Overall, the experience was mediocre.
My wife and I had been planning to head down to Little Tokyo and eat at the legendary Daikokuya. Since it was Labor Day, and we both had the day off from work, we decided that it would be a good time to do it.
Well, unfortunately, Daikokuya had also apparently decided to take the day off, so we were unable to eat there...so instead we popped into Mr. Ramen, a few doors down.
I think it might be considered ironic that, in a restaurant called Mr. Ramen, the Ramen is actually not the best thing on the menu. For our appetizer, we ordered a miso chicken that was delicious. I kept thinking that, if the appetizer was that good, the ramen had to be even better.
Well, it wasn't. Don't get me wrong- it wasn't bad. It just wasn't great. I ordered ramen with pork and tofu and a hardboiled egg. The ramen noodles were somewhat rubbery- as if they'd been sitting out for a bit, and the egg was cold- like it'd just come out of the fridge. I understand it is not always possible to have warm hardboiled eggs sitting around...but at least warm them up a bit before you serve them.
My wife, however, did not order ramen, and got a ginger pork bento box. Her meal was on the same level as our chicken appetizer, and left me wishing I'd ordered a bento box myself.
The restaurant was not disappointing, overall...but the non-ramen food was far superior, to the point where I think they should change the name of the place to Mr. Bento Box (and We Also Have Ramen, But It's Not Our Specialty...For That, Come Back When Daikokuya Is Open...)
Wow! I've always wanted to try a Ramen restaurant. I came to Little Tokyo for the Nisei Week festival and wanted sushi really bad. However, I thought I would have Ramen as an appetizer so my best friend and I made a stop here. I expected to get a tiny bowl of soup and then BAM! They brought out this GIANT bowl of soup. There was also an extra large option on the menu. I can only imagine how big that must be! Anyway, I'm a Ramen novice, so to me, this place gets a 5 star rating. It was unbelievably delicious and I ALMOST finished my bowl of Ramen. I didn't have room for sushi after my visit her, but it was well worth it.
I got here a couple minutes after they opened and we were the first ones there. Within a few minutes, this place almost filled up. It must be good! Hehe.
I live in Chino and if anyone knows of any Ramen restaurants around this area, PLEASE let me know! This was delicious!
So many places to choose from when you're in this area. Everyone is selling something that the competitor has. So how do you choose? You don't; you go with what you know, your experiences, other's experiences, and when someone invites you to a new joint you haven't been. My good buddy wanted to grab lunch at Mr Ramen and since I have never tried it, of course I was down.
The weather is brutally hot. I'm dying of dehydration, my taste buds are off, my head is pounding in an ubiquitous way. Wait, sounds like symptoms of a hangover...
Moving along. we all ordered the cold ramen. I tried the chashu pork ramen with ponzu sauce. I opted with the ponzu for something more with a tang and kick. The other option is miso sauce. You can eat it two ways, dip the noodles in the sauce bowl or just pour the sauce straight onto your noodles. The portion was good. Even though I killed my dish, I have to tell you I was quite full.
This was the perfect dish for the weather and the way I was feeling at that time. You can find parking on the street if you're lucky, don't forget to feed your meters and keep track of how much time you have until your meter expires. You can also look for the random parking lots/structures around the area. This place does not validate.
We came here on brutally hot Sunday afternoon. It was my first time. With so many other more popular Ramen restaurants in the area, you sometimes don't even notice the other smaller restaurants in area like this one. We came here upon her recommendation. They apparently have really good Cold Ramen. It's hot and we're in need of something refreshing. I'm game.
I ordered the Beef Cold Ramen w/ Ponzu sauce. Let me just say that it completely hit the spot. It's an open dish of dry Ramen with beef and bean sprouts. Just shower the dish with all the Ponzu sauce they give you. Mix and devour. It was delicious. The portion size was perfect. I was full, satisfied and refreshed at the end of the meal. Soooo good.
I've come here a few times after and I order the same thing. I don't even look at anything else on the menu. I'm hooked...
I love Mr. Ramen. I go there when I get the hunger, any only Mr. Ramen can give me my fix. What you want to get is.... Beef curry ramen, spicy (if you like it hot) garlic on the side, some gyoza and a pint of sapporo and BAM!!! your done. I don't care much for Daikokuya since everyone seems to throw it in there review and bash mr. ramen, I've been going to mr. ramen for some years now and can't remember there being a huge wait at Daikokuya until the LA weekly wrote about it... personally I would never wait in line to eat, what is it, a dance club?
Mr Ramen has been around for ever, small old school some might even say "hole in the wall" ramen joint that is barebones and hasnt changed at all in over 17 years!.
Terrific place if you like Japanese "soul food" I would recommend the porkbone ramen and a big bottle of Asahi to go with.
They are usually playing some obscure music in the back ground last time I was there it was a reggae version of Frank Sinatras greats hits!
They have side dishes that are not worth mentioning but the Ramen is the star.
When you're very hungry and desperate for ramen, this place will do the job. I like the no wait and fast service. Ordering is not so bad either. They take credit card as well. I like the chasu since it has a little fat in it since I can't stand the super dry meat. Bleh.
Mr. Ramen is my favorite spot! Daikokuya always has a super long line, but if you order the Pork Bone Ramen and Mr. Ramen you will be just as satisfied! My favorite is the half ramen/half curry rice. So much food and so delicious. The best part is that this joint plays reggae/dancehall. Yummy food and some good tunes. A good meal indeed!
In the pre-Yelp days, and at the infancy of the internet, you would make a mental note of good places. Back then, we would catch a free Cold Tofu comedy show at the Japanese Amer. Museum (check out both if you have a chance) and then walk around the corner to Mr Ramen. Kind of an 'economical night out'.
Well I came back here recently after a last visit over 10 years ago and it is good to see some things don't change. The pork ramen was as tasty as before. The noodles had good texture and the soup (dashi) had a nice saltiness. I don't know if the owners changed since then, but the service was good like I recalled.
My parents and I were on our way to Little Tokyo Galleria Market and wanted to grab dinner. We tried Daikokuya a few doors down, but we were in a little bit of a rush and it would've taken too long there. We walked in and except for 1 or 2 people, the place was empty.
We sat down and the waitress brought us are menus and walked away. She came back a minute later and asked us what we wanted to drink.
Looking over the menu, they had the typical ramen offerings. Various meats, vegetarian ramens, extra toppings such as bean sprouts, eggs, etc. They also had various other Japanese dishes, such as bento box combinations and several entrees.
Both my dad and I decided to get the chasu pork ramen and my mom got the vegetable ramen with a pork bone broth. The ramens came out in a decent amount of time. My mom liked her ramen, but had to water it down like she usually does, but said it was very good. I took a taste my broth and holy crap, that thing was salty. I asked for a cup of hot water so I could water it down, and it helped only a TINY bit. I didn't want to bother with another cup of hot water, so I just ate and didn't really drink the broth. The noodles seemed ok. I first though to myself that they were just a tad bit underdone, but I thought to myself "what do I know, I'm no ramen expert"
But the generous and big slices of pork made up for it a little bit. There was also a little bit of seaweed and some minced green onions.
The service was just kind of average. I could tell they tried to be nice, but they didn't seem to be in the best of moods.
Would I come back? Eh....
Yesterday I took my visiting mother-in-law to lunch downtown. I wanted to give her a tour of LiTO and introduce her to the cult of ramen, but needed something quick, approachable, and clean. So that pretty much ruled out Daikokuya on all fronts.
Thankfully, Mr. Ramen is a couple of doors down and fits the bill perfectly. It's not on the same playing field as some of its neighbors, but there's a unique appeal to slurping a gargantuan bowl of noodles to the sounds of dance hall and rock steady.
I'd been here before when the wait at Daikokuya or Orochon was too daunting and knew the drill; stick to the pork bone ramen and pony up for the extras like bamboo and garlic.
The portions are more than generous, but the broth is very salty. To the point that you'll consider self-administering an IV drip after your meal. But I'm of the mind that even a mediocre bowl of ramen is still pretty outstanding, and this place serves its purpose as an acceptable alternative to the big guns.
I don't understand all the hype about Daikokuya, when you got Mr. Ramen just a few doors down. And they serve the best ramen I've ever tasted!
Variety of different ramens offer. Huge portions! I order the chasu ramen, which is so yummy! The noodles and the broth is so flavorful. The fried rice is bomb as well!
The service is friendly and food comes out fast!
A nice little ramen shop with a good helping of ramen selections to choose from and oh the X-large is the bowl to go for. I prefer the Beef Curry Ramen as opposed to others because im a curry fan but ive tasted the miso , soy , and other creations they dish out and they can be very tasty also. if your going for a late dinner here i would suggest comming a little early since lines can build due to the small dining area and the time of wait can be from long to even longer depending on the time of day and magnitude of crowd. However , dont fret because its all worth the wait the chef here takes good care of quality control and everytime i come to visit its always what i expect spot on.
I love Mr. Ramen.
I've been to Japan (ramen there is delightful) and I eat a lot of noodles every where I travel so I know my broth and noodles.
Their Pork Chasiu Spicy Ramen is AWESOME and they have fresh pan fried Gyoza. Yummy!
Don't believe me? I'll let you buy me lunch.
Drunk and happy, my former classmates and I stumble into this joint for a post-happy hour dinner. Actually, I only had one shot of gin, so be assured my memory of last night was not tainted .
I remember coming here a few years ago, but I guess it was too far back for me to remember to stay far way! The name of this place is deceiving.
First of all, 8.20 for a measly little bowl of Chasu Ramen? You've got to be kidding me. The bowl was huge! I guess that's why the tiny portion of noodles I got looked tinier. The pork tasted like it was steeped in soy sauce for too long, and then it was too dry.
Don't be deceived by my small stature, Mr. Ramen. I eat like a football player- how will a tiny portion of noodles satiate my ravenous appetite? To top it off my friend David got a half order of pork fried rice, which really looks like the samples they give you at 99 Ranch. And you know asian people are skimpy.
The few shots of sake we had was not enough to alleviate or hunger/disappointment.
Anyway, you know you're in the wrong place when they're blasting Kenny G at 9 pm on a Thursday night.
The best thing about Mr Ramen (apart from the dope name) is the pork bone soup for the ramen. Don't know where I've been going all this time, but none of them have this (only the usual miso or soy).
So I ordered the ramen, extra beansprouts and tofu. It came with a small piece of delicious pork too and the ramen was pretty good. The 1/2 of curry rice I got was pointless. Try the gyoza instead. The curry was just sauce. Even the packet sauces have some beef or pork. This came with some pickled ginger. Useless so I boxed it and took it home so I could add some grilled salmon.
Add a Bud beer (cause the Japanese booze was double the price?!) I got $3 back from a $20 note. I left that in tip. Kinda pricey? Will try some of the other places on 1st St. and pray I get lucky with street parking.
*sigh*
MR. RAMEN, YOUR NAME FOOLED MEEE!!
i thought it would've been better :(
so like probably 90% of the other people who go here, my bf and i originally wanted to goto daikokuya. but the wait was about 1/2 hour and it was cold and we just wanted something warm. so we decided to just go to mr. ramen.
this was a tuesday night at around 10:30pm. we both got the shoyu ramen. i'll just list the +/- :
PROS:
- they were still open @ night
- food came out fast (like less than 5 min waiting time)
- more than just ramen on menu
CONS:
- not much noodles
- bowl is huge, doesn't look good 1/2 empty when served :T
- only 1 piece of thick sliced pork (bf's pork was kind of cold in center)
- too much seaweed. all i could taste was seaweed in the soup.
- still hungry afterwards :(
i would give them 2 stars. experienced better!!
So my friend had been going on ALL WEEK about Mr. Ramen since we were going to the Cherry Blossom Festival, we had to stop there. Unfortunately the were not open for lunch, so we had to hit them up for dinner. I can't say that I loved their Ramen, the noodles were good but seemed a little buttery to me. It might have just been the miso soup they were soaking in. All together their Ramen bowl was just the right size and that was just the small!! I have no idea how anyone could finish the large!!
I give MAJOR PROPS for their curry rice and fried rice. That was for sure one of the best things I have ever eaten. I would totally make Mr. Ramen curry and fried rice my last meal. If you are in the area you must pick some up and if you don't have room take it to go. I am happy to say we took some home for my gf and it survived the 2 hr. metro ride home.
Even though the dining partner and I remembered this place as being gross, we ate here anyway cuz
1. we HAD to have ramen
2. we were in a time crunch
3. the bestest ramen place a couple doors down had a ridiculous wait as usual.
You know, it's really unfair to compare Mr. Ramen to that bestest ramen place a couple doors down, so I won't. The reason I'm so mad at this place is cuz they don't even try. It seems as if they're content with getting the bestest ramen place next door's "spillovers", as another reviewer stated. (Btw, I realize we were also spillovers that day.) That may be okay with them, but in my book, that's an "Eek! Methinks not." If people are spending money at your establishment, please put in somewhat of an effort.
And here's a few reasons why.
1. I thought my pork bone broth was too salty, but when I tried the dining partners miso broth, I nearly coughed back up rock salt.
2. I don't usually expect vegetable gyoza when I order gyoza. Restaurants usually specify that if it isn't pork. I would NEVER order gyoza if I knew it was vegetable.
3. And on top of everything, the server lady was rude. I was too scared to tell her I ordered diet coke instead of regular.
Poo.. :(
Finally tried the ramen. Verdict: YUM! I'm so happy they offer mini-servings of the ramen because Lord knows I can't finish a regular-sized-larger-than-my-head bowl. I had the Chasu Pork Ramen and it was gllllorious! It was a perfect mix of soy soup, noodles, seaweed, green onions and fatty but not too fatty pork.
That is all. Go here and enjoy the yum.
I didn't have the ramen, but my friend had the shrimp curry ramen and it looked/smelled delicious.… Read more »
Came here on a Friday at around 6:00 p.m on my way to the Union Station. The restaurant was pretty much empty, with only one other family sitting in the corner.
I ordered the pork bone ramen, and my friend ordered the miso ramen. Both came out extremely quickly, which was a plus because we were both really hungry.
However, the ramen was mediocre at best. Although I'm a huge fan of pork bone ramen this one just wasn't up to satisfactory. And the miso ramen kinda sucked...
One star for the quality of the food, one star for the fast service.
A friend and I ran in here last night for dinner when he couldn't figure out where the restaurant he really wanted to go to was, and my bladder was about to burst.
Neither of us ended up having ramen, but we were both definitely satisfied with our meals. I had the katsu curry, which definitely hit the spot. I was starving when we got there, so I was super happy when the food came. We split some sake too, and over all the price was really reasonable. My only complaint was that I wish there was more pork in the dish! They give lots of curry sauce and rice, but not enough pork! Bummer.
Hubbs and I have been regulars here for quite a long time and it's about time I gave them the review that they deserve.
We absolutely love this place...you can almost always count on reggae music playing and the art on the wall is well, happily puzzling. I always get the Shrimp Curry ramen and hubbs gets the spicy beef. The gyozas are fantabulous as well.
Though the prices did go up recently it's still a deal when you consider how much food you get. Next time you're in Little Tokyo be sure to check them out!
I went back to Mr. Ramen, and to my surprise they printed new menus that said "This is not the vegetarian menu" at the top. Thinking this was a typo, I asked the server and they actually have a separate vegetarian menu! Awesome.
I also found out that they do use MSG in their restaurant, but it is not used in their vegetarian ramen. YAY.
I love coming to Mr. Ramen on a cold day for lunch. If you go early enough, seating and service is… Read more »
We were downtown and braved going to Little Tokyo without a plan and landed here when everything else was closed or full. Totally hole in the wall, bright but not too bright. The ramen was simple but delicious-- I recommend supersizing a bowl and splitting. Very romantic in a rustic way. Extra points for serving beer and sake.
Not sure if they take card or not; we paid cash, but the couple next to us seemed to have been told there was a 20 dollar minimum. Not sure.
Yay for Mr Ramen! I've come here a couple times when I couldn't make it into Daikokuya a few doors down, several times when I was hungry for a good bowl of ramen or some Japanese curry. Friendly to loners and late-nite eaters. Always plays reggae/dub.
