It's
a
long
road
coming
down
I-5
from
Tacoma.
However,
leaving
at
4am
to
drive
down
to
Eugene
is
exactly
what
my
roomie
and
I
had
to
do
for
an
appointment.
After
an
early
excursion
and
a
painful
appointment,
Toshi's
Ramen
turned
a
long
dredge
into
a
delightful
adventure.
When
we
first
arrived,
the
cashiers
and
chefs
were
busy
tending
to
various
things.
It's
always
nice
to
see
a
ramen
place
like
this
thriving
and
keeping
busy.
After
peering
over
the
menu,
my
roommate
and
I
ordered:
she
had
the
Miso
cha-shu
(extra
spicy),
and
I
had
the
Shoyu
Wakame
(spicy)
with
pot
stickers
and
a
drink
for
the
both
of
us.
After
paying
$40
(tip
included),
we
sat
down
and
waited
for
our
meal.
It
wasn't
long
before
the
Ramen
was
delivered.
I
need
to
highlight
how
fantastic
of
service
was
here.
The
staff
was
energetic,
helpful,
and
went
above
and
beyond
to
ensure
our
needs
were
met.
The
food,
as
well,
was
delicious.
Lightly
spicy
with
a
heat
that
tickled
without
becoming
overbearing,
and
an
umami
flavor
that
made
you
feel
comfortable
and
at
home.
Mixed
with
that,
the
down
to
earth
borderline
rustic
environment
of
the
shop
felt
wonderfully
inviting
and
made
for
an
incredible
shared
meal
that
stole
away
the
conversation
as
my
roommate
and
I
ate
with
gusto.
The
flavors
were
full
bodied
and
well
rounded
as
expected
from
your
normal
umami
flavoring,
while
being
fresh
and
not
overtly
saturating
that
soul
food
tends
to
be.
The
freshness
was
something
that
really
stood
out
to
me,
and
that
was
reflected
in
just
about
every
aspect
of
Toshi's
Ramen.
The
facilities
were
impeccably
well
kept,
the
flow
of
the
store
was
smooth
even
as
it
picked
up
pace
and
became
crowded
as
my
roommate
and
I
ate,
the
staff
were
alert
and
aware
at
all
times,
and
the
food
was
fresh.
I
deeply
enjoyed
my
small
experience
here,
and
it
left
such
a
good
impression
that
I'm
sitting
here
in
the
parking
lot
writing
this
for
a
solid
20
minutes
because
of
how
good
my
experience
was
while
another
3-4hr
trip
looms
over
the
horizon
(almost
literally).
Thank
you
Toshi's
for
being
such
a
great
place
to
eat,
and
I
look
forward
to
coming
here
again!

yeah,
still
the
best
Ramen
place
and
arguably
the
best
restaurant
experience
I've
ever
had.
The
energy,
the
food,
and
the
atmosphere
all
come
together
for
a
truly
unique
and
delightful
experience.
I
genuinely
can't
recommend
this
place
enough.

It's
become
a
tradition
with
my
roommate
and
myself
to
stop
by
here
before
heading
back
up
towards
Olympia
because
of
just
how
good
the
food
is
here.
Whenever
my
roommate
and
myself
visit
Eugene,
eating
here
is
a
must.
Consistently
a
delightful
visit.
