  This location is actually laughable. I placed an order on DoorDash for pickup. I show up exactly at the time it should be ready and it's already been given away. The server doesn't apologize - he states it's already been picked up. How? I ask if they don't verify the DoorDash confirmation for pickup. The server Kendrick tells me they do, but scammers show up with the exact order confirmation screen and pick up orders. Honestly sounds like BS to me, considering they have pickup orders by the front door on a shelf that anyone could take. Either way, the lack of an immediate apology or questions to clarify just point to the fact that he assumed immediately I was a scammer. Okay, annoying. But whatever. I want my food. I ask to have it remade - they're still seating people and people are ordering. They're not closing anytime soon. He tells me they won't remake it. I ask why and he continues to insinuate I'm a scammer and a thief trying to pick up someone else's order. He tells me to cancel my order. I'm beyond pissed at this point because I can't even get a refund via DoorDash because it's already being prepared. So I go back and talk to him again. He continues to refuse to cancel the order or remake it. He gets on the phone with a "Peter" who he claims is the manager. It gets really fun from here. Peter listens to my story and says there's nothing they can do. He says scammers do that all the time, and every restaurant deals with it. Okay, so how has it never happened to me at ANY restaurant? And how have I NEVER heard of it happening? So Peter, after refusing to do anything for me for a while, finally says he'll talk to the server to try and cancel the order from their end. Fine. I hand the phone back to Kendrick and he walks inside. I wait 7 min and no updates. So I go inside and ask him if he's canceling the order. He says, "what do you mean?" I tell him the manager said he'd tell him to cancel the order. Kendrick says, "he was telling you to do that". More gaslighting lmfaoooooo. I tell him no, he told you to. Again, I'm pissed beyond belief at this point and again, I can't get a refund via DoorDash because it's already "being prepared". You would think saying that 3 times is enough for them to finally get it but no. I wasted 20 min driving here, and another 25 waiting for a resolution for this BS. Kendrick tells me he can't cancel the order twice. I just ignore him and wait. 3 min later he goes "I canceled it". Like... you guys are acting like I'm the scammer when you clearly are the ones trying to pull some shady stuff. I FINALLY get my refund and Kendrick says, "sorry I just work here." Brother, that's not your line. You say that when, for example, corporate has a policy that no one likes. This all stemmed from you and your team's incompetence. The lying and gaslighting is absolutely crazy. 25 min and they either could've just refunded me or remade my order. A waste of time. I'll never visit any Slurpin again - this was just pathetic. Not a single bit of sincerity or willingness to help. The manager sounded like he was tired of talking to me, and our conversation lasted 2 min (I'm not even exaggerating). If you want food, don't go here. If you want to keep your money, don't come here. However, if you want to be treated like a liar and a scammer from the second you walk in, then this place is perfect.

  The ramen size is really small, and pricey they added up some additional fee on us because we are a party of 7. We didn’t bring any outside food to eat though, kinda ridiculous. The ramen barely have any topping just the meat, some green onion, and seaweed. Broth tastes good, but beside that it doesn’t worth $20 bucks for me. Another good thing is they open late

  We ordered delivery. It's great that Slurpin' delivers so we don't have to pay so much money to those delivery apps. In addition to that, this place has the best tonkatsu ramen around - order the umami oil and the extra crunchy chashu and you'll end up with the best ramen you can find

  This was our first time coming to slurp and Ramen and we have to say that it is truly a magnificent and impressive experience. Peter was our server and he was very prompt to greet us and usher us to our table and was extremely friendly, personable and professional. The appetizers were delicious. We had the dumplings and the bulgogi eggrolls, YUM!!! We look forward to coming back. Oh and the broth is EPIC!!!

  The vibe was very "just two guys with a crazy idea" but with ramen. Food was mid the broth was the main saving grace, portions made me think we were rationing food at this as if we had a shortage 80% broth 20% everything else really.
