Food: Food is an exercise in mediocrity

Diners find the Shoyu Ginger Chicken Ramen lacking in flavor, while the Tomo Fries disappoint with their skimpy toppings. Pork and Chive Dumplings leave much to be desired, being undercooked and reminiscent of frozen packages, making the dining experience feel overpriced with poor quality.

  • Okay Value

    Pricing high but justified by unique, fresh food offerings.

  • Low Variety

    Hit or miss experience with some dishes not meeting expectations.

Vibe: Uninspiring atmosphere with zero charm

The restaurant's ambiance feels cold and uninviting; a place that could use a personality overhaul. The stark interior makes diners wonder if they are in a restaurant or a waiting room devoid of charm or warmth, leaving little appeal for a date night.

  • Okay Drinks

    Good drinks, but the review lacks enthusiasm or specifics.

  • No Buzz

    WOM doesn’t have enough context to give specifics on why the Buzz sway is negatively referenced.

Perks: Slow service with unprofessionalism hanging in the air

Service suffers from a lack of professionalism, with slow response times leaving customers frustrated. Reservations may be easy, but the overall experience falls flat when combined with indifferent staff, falling short of any noteworthy perks.

  • Great Speed

  • Okay for Kids

    WOM lacks bite-sized context to explain the neutral Kids sway.
