" As a ramen enthusiast, I have to say, Tong Sake House really does it right! The tonkotsu is hands down the best in the area. The richness of the broth is incredible, and the noodles have that perfect chewy texture. Plus, their poke bowl is quite fresh and flavorful. I visited during a busy lunch hour but still received great service, thanks to the attentive staff. Really a hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" The concept of Korean-Japanese fusion is intriguing, but I found the execution lacking. The ramen was alright, but definitely not the best I've had around. It felt overly modified for a western palate. The kimchi was a bit too tangy for my taste and didn't blend well with the bulgogi rice. I appreciated the ambiance, and the staff was friendly, but the food didn’t quite hit the mark for what I was hoping for. I may give it another chance though. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been hearing good things about this place, so I decided to visit. It’s a small, cozy restaurant with a friendly staff. I ordered the bulgogi rice bowl and a poke bowl as well. The bulgogi was tender and flavorful; however, I found the poke to be a bit lacking in flavor and freshness than expected. The prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. I might return to try more dishes, but I hope they improve the poke. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. I went with a few friends, and we ordered a mix of dishes. The poke bowls were fresh, and the ramen didn’t disappoint. Friendly service as well; everyone was polite and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for Korean or Japanese food! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place absolutely deserves a high rating! Amazing ramen, rich and flavorful broth. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu and made fantastic suggestions. I can't recommend the tempura enough—it was crunchy and perfectly cooked. I would make this place a regular stop if I lived closer! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Tong Sake House is undoubtedly good, but sometimes it can be incredibly busy which affects service. The last time I went, the ramen was amazing but it took a while to get a server. I recommend going during off-peak hours for a better experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a regular here and it's always been great. Had the tonkatsu ramen again, and it was great as always! The welcoming staff only enhance the experience. I do wish they would offer a bigger variety of side dishes next time. Regardless, I intend to keep coming here! " (*Curated Review*)
