The ramen is average. Very few ingredients (noodles, cheshunt, beansprouts), nothing else. I will not come again as there are many better options elsewhere.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Common Sage is one of the best hidden gems for ramen and comfort food. Their Common Sage Miso Ramen is rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with tender chicken, garlic, and fresh toppings. They also have a great Vegetarian Shoyu Ramen that’s light but still packed with flavor — perfect if you want a vegan option. Beyond ramen, their onigiri (rice balls) are a must-try, especially the tuna mayo and spam varieties. I also love their bibimbap bowls and unique sandwiches, which give you something different if you’re not in the mood for noodles. Drinks are another highlight — from smooth lattes to creative options like the black sesame latte and golden milk tea, plus a full coffee menu for espresso lovers. Everything is thoughtfully made and never feels rushed. The space is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable for the quality and freshness you get.
