Came here on a Saturday night after a visit to RAM because they take reservations. There are 2 locations and this one is in an older trendy area of Edmonton called Old Strathcona. There is street parking and we found a spot right in front. It's free after 6pm so we paid for 30 minutes. When we arrived we were seated promptly.
We were meeting some friends from Edmonton and when they arrived we ordered. My kids shared the Tonkotsu Ramen and my wife got her own. I ordered the sushi combo and added 6 salmon sashimi. My friends ordered ramen and/or sushi. The sashimi and sushi were excellent. There also was a board oh fresh sushi specials they bring in.
The Ramen however, was only okay. My family make it a point to go to lots of Ramen restaurants wherever we go. My daughter said the broth tasted a bit like cream corn soup. There was big hype about the restaurant making it's own noodles but it kinda fell flat.
Service was great. The group enjoyed themselves. This is a great place for sashimi and sushi, but if you're looking for great Ramen I'd go somewhere else.

Dropped in for lunch. The place is clean and welcoming, and along a more quiet section of Whyte Ave. The sushi bar looked promising and there was a list of special fish, which we did not try. We sat by a bright window...the chairs are solid metal frame and weigh a ton. The menu(s) offer a lot of the usual variety from appetizers to sushi to donburi to ramen. It was clear that this was formulaic to the previous generation of fuller service Japanese restaurants. Given the name, we were hoping for a great ramen stop, but the menu and place did not inspire us to even try the ramen. In fact, in a food court like sense, we just ordered bento boxes. The accompanying miso soup was whitish instead of miso coloured but was pleasant, and the salad was fresh but more in keeping with the 70's steak house iceberg lettuce salads with a drizzle of thinned mayonnaise. The box had tempura (which was quite good), rice (ok but not steaming), teriyaki chicken (good grill flavour, but overcooked to slight dry), and some salmon/tuna/snapper sashimi (fresh enough but somewhat flavourless). The prices were ok for the meal at about $13 per box. If this were a food court, I'd be happy, but there are many choices further down the street that are more refreshed.
Very good... just make sure to ask for toppings if you want them on your ramen.. else youll just get minimal things. Kimchi bowl is only noodles, broth and kimchi...
