Dont let the small place fool you. They simply serve very tasty food. The place is very clean, food tasted excellent. Their dish can be compared to more expensive places. The order also came in quick. Ramen was at the right temperature and spiciness, broth tasted rich and pork is soft and very tasty and can be eaten on its own. I would recommend to try the pork ramen on your first visit. Takoyaki is excellent, so is the seaweed salad. Chicken and ricebowl is just perfect. They also have a variety of Sake and Japanese import beer. Outside seating also available. Will definitely come back

I love the atmosphere, super quaint spot that is very clean and welcoming of everyone! Everyone was very helpful and knowledgeable if the dishes and helped us try new things. I suggest trying a rice ball, and the ramen (not pictured cause they were eaten so fast). Not to mention, yummy drinks ( even for adults)! I can’t wait to go back

I recently tried to make katsudon myself, and enjoyed it a lot, but I was lamenting because I’d never tried it outside of my own. Well, after finding out about Don Express I had to try it right away.

Didn’t expect to find one of the best tasting bowl of ramen I’ve ever had in this little shop, and believe me when I say that I’ve tasted plenty across the country. They also have donburi and curry bowls and I’m looking forward to going back to try those.

The join and serotonin that flooded my body after I tasted the best Japanese food I’ve had in the United States is unrivaled by any other dining establishment I’ve been to. The food was fantastic. The customer service fantastic. The pricing is absolutely great. Most other places charge the same for a meal and you’ll end up disappointed. This isn’t the case here.

Absolutely delicious! The food options are a lot more traditional than what you would expect from other asian takeout/hibachi resturants. AND SO MUCH BETTER! The owner is very friendly and the atmosphere is cozy and pleasent. Please make a stop here and try their food. You will not be dissapointed.
