Zaya didn't disappoint! Came here for a Valentine's Day Dinner with my daughter and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The cucumber appetizer was super fresh and perfectly seasoned, with just a tad of spice that gave it a nice little kick without overpowering it — such a great way to start the meal.

The pork in the ramen was also burnt so it tasted charred and bitter. I was very disappointed. I’ve had ramen all over the city and in Tokyo and this was not satisfactory at all to me. I just didn’t feel comfortable because the male server there when I went was not ex
