Came here for dinner. Was pretty excited since I remember recalling that the TST branch was really good. Got seated immediately, and was surprised at the large seating available inside. However seating is very tight and the space as you keep walking further to the back feels like a backroom than a proper restaurant. Food: Ordered standard Pork Ramen with Mushrooms.

Food: Ordered standard Pork Ramen with Mushrooms. My friend had an Egg Ramen.
Pork ramen was just okay, noodles didn't taste like it was well combined with the soup, maybe not hot enough? Miso broth was okay, not quite there yet, taste came off very single-dimensioned if you can picture that. Came with plenty of mushrooms which were tasty. Pork slice was a bit too dry as compared to the ramen in Japan (but its not a fair comparison I guess...). My friend said his Egg Ramen was just decent.
Service: Decent, pretty quick for food to arrive.
Sizing it up: Definitely not as good as TST place and the environment is so cramped in the back of the restaurant seating. Ramen is not as good as Sapporo near Exchange Square nor Ramen Sanpachi on Hennessy Road near SOGO. I would not come here again, especially that there's so many restaurant choices in that Lee Theatre.
