Went here for lunch. Both service and food were fantastic. Had the Waygu and Omakase with sake pairing. Both highly recommended. Robin, our host was very friendly and accommodating. Marvin, our server, was attentive and so nice!

I ordered ramen from Love, Makoto on uber eats and it is most definitely the best ramen I’ve had in DC. The spicy miso ramen is packed with flavor, the meat is tender, and the price was very good compared to other ramen shops in DC. This is my new ramen spot!
