Xero Requiem

The service and atmosphere here was fine. The guy from New Hampshire who checked us out was great to talk to and quite funny. The food however was gross. The donburi could best be described as smelling like cat food, and tasting as I imagine cat food tasting based on the smell. The hot karaage was not good. It was like a bad chicken nugget with a bad buffalo sauce. The edamame was decent but effectively not salted at all. The only thing I can say positive about the food is that the beer was really good. I walked into this place with my group thinking it was the Izakaya next door so we weren’t looking for Ramen, that could actually be good and was the only thing we saw other people ordering, but since we didn’t order that I can only judge it off the other dishes, which were all really bad to the point we didn’t finish eating, which is quite rough considering we were traveling and barely ate yet that day.
