Food: Divine flavors, disappointing portions

Iki Ramen is to sushi what Michelangelo is to painting. Their Salmon Sushi is a sumptuous feast of freshness. The Yuzu Ramen, filled with a harmony of citrus and savory notes, takes you on a zesty journey. Their Gyoza is a crispy hallelujah sung with umami flavors. It's undoubtedly creative, but the portions bordered on artistic minimalism, leaving diners wanting more.

  • Great Quality

    Fresh fish melts in your mouth, perfectly seasoned rice enhances flavor.

  • Almost Creative

    Ingredients in dish are interesting, not directly about creativity.

  • Bad Variety

    Fairly simple menu, might lack diversity for different palettes

Vibe: Inspiring decor, buzzing atmosphere

The ambiance at Iki Ramen is a fusion of elegance and modernity, a Mondrian in restaurant form.
