I’ve been in Ithaca almost 4 years and I only just discovered this place. I can’t recommend it more! Service was fast and the food was unbelievable. All 4 of us had an amazing dish: the pad Thai, squid ink pasta/salmon, vegetable ramen, and chicken pasta. The flavors were incredible! Seriously better than other similar restaurants on the Commons.
A hidden gem. We visited, intrigued by the menu selections that seemed influenced by modern Japanese cuisine. The mushroom pasta with butter/soy sauce did not disappoint. Ramen noodles themselves were not of the best quality and slightly overcooked (soft) but soup was savory — even one used for vegetarian ramen. Price was very reasonable. Reservation recommended for weekends.
Green curry salmon and mango chicken salad were so so delicious. Salmon was a bit overdone in my opinion, but the green curry and other veggies in the pasta made it still a standout dish. Might try the chicken green curry next time
It's not often that I come across a vegetarian ramen that I like, but this was excellent! From the unique atmosphere to the exceptional service, this has quickly become a local favorite. The food is outstanding - and reasonably priced! Try the brussels sprouts appetizer, you won't regret it!
My absolute favorite place in Ithaca. Been there several times, spicy carbonara is amazing, the green curry pasta is a must try. My girlfriend ordered the squid ink pasta and also liked it a lot. This place might fall a bit under the radar since it is not in downtown, but the food is well-worth the ride.
The seafood pasta was one of best I have had.It was basically Clams linguinie with addition of scallops and shrimp. Highly recommend. My wife had the mango salad. Hope you're hungry!
Definitely best noodle place in Ithaca! I’ve visited there multiple times and almost ordered everything in the menu. I would say you won’t go wrong with any of the dishes. They all taste so delicious! Some of my favorites:Appetizer:- Fried shrimp wrapPasta:- breaded chicken green curry pasta, great for meat lovers- spicy seafood squid ink pasta if you love spicy food- mushroom pasta and vegetarian pasta also taste good if you are a vegetarian.Salad:- Fried chicken salad, if you want to have protein with fewer carbs
This is a cute little spot! Everything tasted very fresh and was quick to come out of the kitchen. We were there on a weekday night so it really wasn't busy. I ordered vegetable ramen (loaded with mushrooms!) and my partner got the butter/soy sauce noodles which were phenomenal. If we lived in the area I'm sure we would be regulars :)
The fried mango salad is absolutely pog champ and they want you to get fat so they give you so much food holy... the waiters are very handsome and hot and I accidentally gave them 60% tip because I couldn't take eyes off of them. the service was great and I especially enjoyed my experience in the bathroom!
My friends and I really enjoyed the food here! I ordered the fried chicken mango salad but it turned out to be way bigger than I thought (great value!) and it was super yummy. My friends got the salmon squid ink pasta and tofu pad thai and all really enjoyed their food as well.Service was great and the ambiance of the place was very nice too. Would highly recommend to anyone!
