Ikkyu

Named after a famous Zen Buddhist monk, Ikkyu runs as a compact, hole-in-the-wall operation with a small indoor dining room and a covered outdoor patio and pet-friendly seating. The atmosphere runs casual with a busy lunch crowd. The menu includes donburi rice bowls, bento boxes, ramen, sushi, yakisoba, teppan plates, udon, and Japanese curry. The ramen selection includes miso, shoyu, tonkotsu, and a spicy black sesame variety. Sushi options range from basic rolls and inari to specialty items like the Ninja Roll and Baked Scallop California Roll. The shoyu ramen and volcano-style spicy tuna don serve as two of the most popular items.
