Hi,
I think there's a new japanese place called "New Tokyo" opened which specializes in japanese ramen noodles. Has anyone tried it? It's located at 668 Silver Star Blvd. I wanted to try this place since there is 15% off coupon but not sure if it's any good....please tell me if it was good if u've tried it...thanks

I've been there when it first opened. Don't expect authentic ramen (or even close to that) from the place.
I thought it was okay(at least the ramen is better than aijisen) but my other friends thought it was horrible.
When it first opened they had a bunch of other different ramens..like dan dan ramen (mix of japanese and sichuan) but I think they took it out from the menu and is trying for a more authentic ramen approach. As you can see from their menu they have shao mai and steamed meat dumpling for dim sum:D

if you go to the frozen section of Asian supermarket, you can find shao mai and steamed meat dumplings made in Japan or with Japanese lettering. So you wonder why is there Japanese shao mai or why does Japanese gyoza look like Chinese dumplings?
Read for yourself why Japanese and Chinese have the same food items or similarities and educate yourself:

On the front of the menu it says Ramen house // Japanese Bar
This restaurant can also be a place where you just have drinks and chill - according to the Japanese Bar definition.
