Super awesome place. My wife and I each got a different broth type. They were both amazing for very different reasons. The heavier broth feels like comfort food and is great for cooler winter times. The clear broth is surprisingly flavorful, yet still light enough to not bog you down, supper awesome summer-time broth. Being a sunny winter day, we appreciated both of them. The server was awesome as was the check-in lady. The wait is terrible, but that's kind of a good thing, shows they know how to make food! Also you give them your number and they'll text you when you're up next for a table, so you can go wander around. The tea is great (oolong) and the toppings in the ramen are awesome. It was our first time, so we we didn't add anything not knowing how the broth would be, next time I'm adding mushrooms. We were almost done and we got offered something amazing, $2 for more broth or noodles in the bowl. This is perfect for my wife and I, I prefer more noodles and she's always loved broth, so woot on them. We did decline that option however as we were quite full. Why only 4 stars? Well, we got calamari there and it was $6.50 for a small plate of very chewy food. With our ramens being $12.50 and MASSIVE, there just wasn't any doubt that the appetizer was a flop. It was not very flavorful and that was just unfortunate. TLDR: Ramen and Oolong Tea are badass, avoid the calamari appetizer.

Best place to go in Portland for some spice. Get the Boars Collar with sticky rice. Yummy!

Took my almost 7-year-old here for breakfast and it was SUCH a hit. He adored it. The staff were fantastic and very kid-friendly. Food was very good - I loved the grits, blueberries were fresh, pancake batter was good. Cons: An hour+ wait (we went on a weekend, 40 minutes after opening), but that speaks to its popularity. The prices aren't cheap, but you're paying for the experience and I think it's worth it for a special occasion.

I am staying at the Hampton Inn and stopped in to get a burger before the MNF game. The staff were really nice and promptly asked to seat me. I ordered their regular cheeseburger with fries. For $9, this was a really good deal and it was prepared well. I appreciate the good service that I was given.
