This was our first time coming to slurp and Ramen and we have to say that it is truly a magnificent and impressive experience. Peter was our server and he was very prompt to greet us and usher us to our table and was extremely friendly, personable and professional. The appetizers were delicious. We had the dumplings and the bulgogi eggrolls, YUM!!! We look forward to coming back. Oh and the broth is EPIC!!!

We ordered delivery. It's great that Slurpin' delivers so we don't have to pay so much money to those delivery apps. In addition to that, this place has the best tonkatsu ramen around - order the umami oil and the extra crunchy chashu and you'll end up with the best ramen you can find
First time here with friends, and I’m so glad they offer a vegetarian ramen option for plant-based folks like me! The broth was rich and flavorful—slightly on the saltier side, but I enjoyed every last noodle. The generous amount of fresh veggies made it extra satisfying. Great job, and keep up the awesome work! Cheers 🥂
Walked in today expecting the same great experience I’ve had in the past, only to find that they’ve replaced servers with iPads for ordering directly from the table. While I understand the move from a business standpoint – it probably saves on labor costs – it definitely takes away from the personal, human touch that used to make the place feel so welcoming. On top of that, something about the ramen felt off this time. The broth didn’t have the same rich, dense texture it normally does; it tasted thinner, almost watered down. I usually add corn on the side, but even that didn’t taste or feel the same as it used to — less fresh, less flavorful. Maybe it was just an off day, but between the automated ordering system and the noticeable drop in food quality, it feels like this place might be starting to cut some corners. And with the iPads handling most of the service, it’s hard to justify leaving much of a tip when the hostess is just dropping off the food. Still hoping this was a one-time slip, because I’ve always enjoyed this spot before today.
