A local favorite! NEVER a bad meal. We love the food, so fresh, clean and filling. GF friendly. If it’s not GF you can ask if they can change noodles. We love the vibe. Lunch is our favorite time of day to hit the hot noodles. The canned cocktails are Yummy. The Dame Shrub is the best. We ware so luck to have this so close to home. And of course the STAFF is amazing, friendly and all and all sensational

Perfect as always. Anju knows flavor, that is for sure. We got the tuna & watermelon salad, the Vietnamese crepe, chicken khao poon ramen, and the matcha cheesecake and everything was incredible. The crepe was by far the best, honestly insane.

Stopped for impromptu lunch. Boy, am I glad I did. Outstanding! Everything about it. Though they were busy service was awesome. I sat at the bar and could see the chefs cooking (open kitchen). Fun experience. You know they’re not hiding anything. Food was fresh and super tasty. Good size portions. I was full. I actually order a pork bun to go not knowing how I was going to finish it. Safe to say, it didn’t stand a chance. I’m already thinking of how I can make it to Kittery area for another go at it. I highly recommend Anju.

I stopped by on a quiet weekday afternoon between errands for a late lunch and was seated quickly. The shio ramen was so flavorful - I loved the spicy seasoning that was on top, it added the perfect amount of heat. As an after thought, I also tried the matcha cheesecake, but it was a lil crumbly and light in matcha flavor - I really had to search for the flavor. I hope this was a fluke but next time I'll forgo dessert and grab a cruller at Lil's next door.

We ate here TWICE this past weekend! It’s that good! Best ramen I’ve ever had and the atmosphere is cozy and fun with the open kitchen concept! We had a toddler with us and they were very accommodating and the high chairs were nice and clean ( not the case at most restaurants) They were also accommodating with special requests or changes to menu items! Overall 10/10 and we’ll definitely be back soon

Ramen was AMAZING. The apps that we had (pork bun and kimchi dipand chips) didn't wow us for the price. The RAMEN though, was probably the best either of us had. There was so much flavor and large portions. I would recommend this place to anyone! It was a small location and the service was pretty quick for a sit down location. The 2 of us spent an hour there, including a 5-10 minute wait for the table for drinks, apps, and entrees.

We came here for lunch on a glorious Halloween afternoon and Anju was spot on! Starting off with the rice cakes the chili oil brought them alive. Quite good! My Ramen was truly the star of the show. Amazing flavor profile, it was simply delicious! Service was great and it ended up being a memorable afternoon. Highly recommend!
