I got a noodle bowl and some dumplings. The food was cooked and seasoned well. I went woth the medium spice and would recommend going spicy if you have any spice tolerance at all. The bowl portions are huge! There are tons of options if you need gluten free, vegetarian, or vegan selections
Authentic ramen with phenomenal broth and a quick turnaround time makes this spot a must-visit for noodle lovers.

We visited this restaurant after learning they offered gluten-free ramen, a critical consideration for myself and my 6-year-old and 10-year-old daughters, since we all have celiac disease. Unfortunately, the experience was deeply disappointing and harmful. Upon delivering our meals, the server inaccurately identified which dishes were gluten-free. Midway through our meal, I noticed my eldest daughter’s noodles looked different from mine, and it became clear they had served her the wrong dish.
When we alerted the staff to their grave error, the response was a dismissive apology with no attempt to correct the mistake, offer compensation, or even check on my daughter’s well-being. As a result, she is now severely unwell, and we may need to visit urgent care. For someone with celiac disease, this mistake isn’t just a minor inconvenience—it risks weeks of recovery, long-term health complications, and heightened cancer risks.
The lack of safeguards to prevent allergen mix-ups is alarming, and the staff’s negligence and lack of accountability are unacceptable. Restaurants catering to dietary restrictions must prioritize rigorous training and protocols. This incident reflects a systemic failure, and I urge others with allergies or celiac disease to exercise extreme caution here.
Get ready for a chill vibe with an easy online ordering system, generous portions, and a menu that caters to diverse dietary needs.

This was my wife’s first meal after giving birth and not having raw fish for over 9 months. The freshness of the fish was excellent and they provided us with plenty of gluten free soy sauce which is a nice bonus. The sashimi platter and seaweed salad were also very nice. Would like to try more of their menu sometime soon - it does seem pretty busy on Friday/Saturday nights.
With a versatile menu perfect for both casual lunches and fancy dinners, the vibe is lively and flavors are complex, ensuring a delightful experience.

The food is delicious! I'm so happy the buffet is back every day for lunch and dinner because I like getting the variety. Plus they have a lot of gluten free choices as well as dairy free.

I’m so happy that there’s another good ramen place in Boulder. They offer gluten free noodles, which is always a plus for those GF folks. I’ve had the tonkatsu ramen every time and it’s savory and delicious. Also have tried their date tea, which I highly recommend. Such friendly servers too. Really like this place :)
Perfect for a small bite, full meal, or anything in-between.
I can't believe this place isn't packed 24/7. The food is fantastic, atmosphere calm, and there are options for everyone (veggie, gluten free, etc). Owners and staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive (and local).
Onigiri are my staple fare here. They are so simple, but attention to the details makes them some of my favorite food in Boulder. Everything tastes fresh, is clearly handmade, and they get the texture perfect.
There are also rice bowls and a variety of other fare, even including some Tibetan staples.
The chai and sake are fantastic.
This should be a Boulder/Pearl Street "must-visit" - check it out if you haven't already.
Get ready for an amazing sushi experience with creative specialty rolls made with care and skillful chefs ready to enhance your visit.

The food was fresh, high quality and imaginative.
A special shout out to our server Wyatt! He was so personable and called me by my first name from the open table reservation, when initially greeting us. Wyatt was especially attentive, and executed our gluten free request accurately. Most of all he offered me a very genuine and kind Birthday wish when serving us dessert so much so that it made my girlfriend tear up. There are so many great restaurants in Boulder, but in my opinion service is what sets them apart and Wyatt should be recognized for his hard work, effort and kindness. Thank you Japango for helping us celebrate this last Fish Friday of the Lent season and reeling in an awesome 40th Birthday Celebration.
Gluten free people don’t bother. Even their meat has gluten. Super slow service with a very annoyed attitude. Avoid this place. Took 35 mins from ordering to get our food and 4 other tables who came in after us got their food before us.
THE best takeout in boulder! They have been amazing with gluten free options! We get takeout once a week and I never get 'glutoned' lol .

Great food and service. We had a lot of food restrictions (gluten free, dairy free, no shellfish) and they handled them easily and graciously. Gave the staff an idea of what we like and they chose the dishes—turned out great! Do not miss the eggplant or the duck skewers. The sashimi was the best I’ve had in Colorado
