Tajima Ramen Bar Reviews

We were so lucky to reach the ramen bar before 7PM. Just after we were seated, a considerable line started forming outside. And I definitely understand why. The Tajima Ramen soup is sooo tasty and the addition of lemon juice makes for a refreshing touch. The Karaage was perfectly crisped and absolutely delicious! Best of all, the service was perfect. Thanks for a great dinning experience, guys!

I've been checking out ramen for the past 40 years, primarily in the San Francisco Bay Area, Hawaii, Japan and San Diego. For my money, Tajima serves up the best ramen in San Diego. That's not to say that other ramen shops aren't as good but you'd be hard pressed not to enjoy a great meal here. My wife and I had their Tajima signature ramen which we found excellent. The broth - which either makes or breaks ramen - was one of the best we've tasted. The meat was extremely flavorful and tender. The added vegetables only added to the flavor. While the competition for great ramen continues to evolve as the best ramen chefs constantly experiment to outdo each other, I'd say Tajima is one of the leaders of the pack. You'll leave Tajim with a happy smile on your belly.

The noodles here are absolutely delicious and the addition of lime to the spicy bowl really makes the flavor of the pho pop. Great funny staff!

San Diego has a number of truly wonderful ramen restaurants. But this very small storefront restaurant is one of the best. The soup is deliciously complex. The herbs and fresh veggies within the soup are bright and tasty. I prefer pork over chicken as the protein. Oh my, dee-lish. Wonderful appetizers as well. But pace yourself, because that bowl of ramen is a full meal. Incredible value as well!!

We were looking for vegan lunch while car shopping and found Tajima Ramen Bar. Nice atmosphere, great prices and the vegan ramen is outstanding! Definitely worth the visit!

Great quality and selection! The broth was so well-made and the dishes felt like they were the right portion size. Love the unique selection of ramen they have here. My bf and I got the Tajima and chicken dumpling ramen. Decent service snd cozy atmosphere!

The ramen was delicious. We had the ramen with the Tonkotsu broth. The noodles were so good. We loved the broth with the garlic.

Restaurant was very inviting, clean and bright in San Diego's Hillcrest area. Tasteful art on the walls. Limited seating but there are community tables as well as table seating for up to 4 patrons. Because the seating is limited, noise levels can be high when the restaurant is at or near capacity. My party of four had a brief wait for lunch on a Saturday at 1:00pm. Casual Japanese dining with menu consisting mainly of appetizers, rice bowls and ramon specialties. Portions are large and presented well. A large variety of craft beers are available in addition to a number of Japanese beers as well. They have an excellent green iced tea. Our server was Alexis and she did a good job taking care of us. The only non-positive was she wasn't readily available to refill our drinks. Other then that, she was helpful and pleasant to work with. She answered questions about the menu with ease and mae suggestions when asked. Without drinks, our total bill was $42.02. Not bad for 4 adults who left the restaurant feeling full. All of us agreed that we would return to Tajima Ramen in a heartbeat. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone interested in tasty Japanese food. Don't forget to try the pork Gypza appetizer (dumplings)!

This is my comfort food! Spot on for service and quality. Always busy but always a place to sit! Great Vibes!

Came to the restaurant with friends on the last day of Comic-Con. The food did not disappoint! I had the Naruto Ramen, which they only have during Comic-Con.

Tonkasu broth with a nice blend of meatiness, toasted garlic and salt. Noodles were on point with jut the right amount of bite and the sprouts and pork were the perfect accompaniment. Quaffed a nice cold bottle of Sapporo. Perfect lunch!

Great little spot even open for late night dining after an evening of partying .Very popular bare bones spot low on ambiance and high on quality ramen with even vegan options available.My wife used to teach English in Osaka and even gives thumbs up to their Takoyaki octopus fritters..not easy to find even in this Ramen obsessed town.We also like the izakaya branch near Convoy which adds sushi to the impressive ramen selections!

Sooooo good. Especially the spicy miso. I eat here probably once a week and no one makes a better garlic edamame!

The food here was great. Very flavorful and you get a big bowl for your money. I thought the iced tea lacked flavor (maybe they need to steep in longer) and it took a little long to get our food. Would definitely go back though.

The food here is consistently as tasty as the Tajima Restaurant near Somi Somi. Either place is great. I do like this one that avoids a bit more of the Convoy St congestion that could happen during the heart of dinner time. The broth makes the ramen and it's great here. Compliment that with noodles with just the right texture and fresh ingredients and it's a masterpiece of goodness!

My son is a sailor out of Coronado Naval Base and he took me and my DH to Tajima. The Noodles are made on site in different sizes that compliments the broths perfectly. My favorite appetizer is the Kakuni Bun made of Yummy Pork Belly served with a house sauce in an amazingly soft bun, also made on site. Beware cause if you eat too many of these you won't have room for your Ramen Bowl😊. The restaurant is a smaller storefront that is pretty busy most every nite so expect to wait but it's worth it. Sake was smooth and happy hour has $4 Sapporo. Come hungry, wear an elastic waistband and enjoy the fresh explosions of flavor!

In town for business, showed up at 6:30pm and was promptly seated. However, there is only seating for around 20 people, some shared tables, so go early or make reservation. I had the Tajima Ramen and it was great. Service quite fast and staff were nice. A little out of the way, past the usually gas lamp spots, but worth the extra walk.

The Ramen here was amazing and decently priced. Had the spicy bowl and the spice was just right and broth was flavorful! It is a small place so I recommend eating early or you will have to wait to be seated.

This restaurant is hidden off the beaten path just outside the gas lamp district. Smaller family style building with mostly shared seating in the middle and a few booths on the side. Tonkatsu Ramen was very good and I also recommend the squid balls.. Staff was attentive and price was fine.

I really liked this place, better than the ramen place on 4th Avenue around the corner. This one gets crowded but we only had to wait a few minutes for a table. The ramen portions are very generous, no need for an appetizer - which I would note are tiny, you won't be sharing these. But the main thing is the ramen and it was tasty and the prices good for San Diego

So we were looking to try a new place and came across this ramen spot. When I tell you it was a bad idea believe me it was a bad idea to come here. The first thing to give it away is when someone asks you to tip for service up front. We ordered 2 ramens (it was buy one get one 1/2 off), a hot sake (which was on sale that day), a couple of beers, and the takoyaki app. When I went to pay I realized we never got the discount on ramen; that got adjusted. When we sat down we were then told they ran out of hot sake. The server said he could replace it with something else like a beer, which I agreed to. He then came out with his handheld to charge me the difference between the two. The difference was $1. You'd think because of the already 2 mishaps they'd just take care of $1. I had him bring me the beer and charge the difference. The ramen came out and we didn't even get the appetizer. So let me tell you about this ramen. If you

We ate at the Hillcrest location. The restaurant is pretty small, and parking is quite challenging. The place was packed, even at 3pm! And I wouldn't call this a family oriented restaurant. It is definitely a trendy spot for young people. Nevertheless, the food is amazing! Appetizers are interesting, especially the octopus balls. My ramen bowl is so good! Wish there were places like this in Denver.

Small restaurant so there was a 30 min wait. Food was excellent but the service was slow. Took over 30 minutes to get the soup. So, if you have the time check it out. They also have gluten free noodles.

They have about 5 places in SD. This was our first venture here. Happened to be there for the 4-6p Happy Hour (there is also a late night one)-it’s limited but a beer and gyoza are always good. The food selection is limited but tasty and fresh. Servers nice and pleasant. Food out promptly and hot! The setting is clean with nicely polished tables and “bar” spots. Some overlook the busy kitchen. No reservations. They do a brisk take out service. I’d recommend it as well as go back ~

I can’t fully review this establishment as I could not eat there. The only gluten free they have is the salmon poke bowl and edamame.

We came here for a reasonably priced and casual dinner, and we were not disappointed. We walked, so we had no parking issues. There was a line when we arrived (around 8 pm), and we waited about 20 minutes for counter seats. We sort of had to remind the staff that we were waiting for seats--a staff member was on break and decided to sit in one of the few opens seats until I nudged our way in. You apparently really need to stay on top of seating issues. But once we got seated, we were happy. Fried rice was great but came out about 5-10 minutes before the other diner's ramen. Ramen--regular tonkatsu with chasu pork and thin noodles--was very good. Bottom line--good food at a great price, but some service hiccups that need to be (and can easily be) resolved.

When we arrived, there was a line outside. It was about mid-60 deg F and slightly windy. Since it was our first visit, we went in to wrote our name and waited outside. After almost 30 minutes, another couple and our family were the only ones still waiting patiently. There were many customers came out and we thought we would be served soon...the other couple who came earlier then us were unhappy. They went in and talked to the waitress and finally got a seat. Our family waited another 15mins or so, we saw there were empty seats but the tables were not cleared, a few servers were standing around chit chatting to one another. FINALLY, one of them noticed us and let us sit down to order our food. While waiting for our food, I noticed there's a line outside the store again, NONE of the servers even bothered to check on the reservation booklet , they simply just let customers wait outside the store!!! When we tried out the tonkotsu ramen, it was OK. Like some review mentioned, slightly salty. You will be disappointed as it doesn't look like the picture on their website. Every topping is extra $$... DO NOT order their Sushi Hand roll, it is $4 and only 3-4" long and nothing special, totally not worth it! ( You can make your own at home and is not difficult at all.) To the owner of the store : You need to watch out for your servers and re-train them to be more attentive to customers, especially if there's a line waiting outside, someone need to stand at the door to make sure the traffic is flowing smoothly (= money in your pocket / and theirs!!!) Also, the old, almost broken bench / chair outside the store is really NOT acceptable at all.

Hillcrest has a tendency of providing great food options to this city, and this is yet another great addition. Prices are great, far less than what you will find in many ramen places so close to downtown, the basic menu may be the key here. The menu doesn't isn't too complex, but you certainly have options to add extras to your meal, and it's not only ramen. Awesome late night deal of $1.50 beers from Thurs-Sun! The taste and quantity is perfect, you go for the food, and that is what you get, you don't feel like your paying for everything else.... but it's not like this a new place that looks run-down or anything, in fact it's a nice setup. A bit of art, some interesting tables and seating, it's pretty good for many occasions! The service is friendly too. When I walked out of this place, I definitely had one of those "Top 5's or 10's" feelings, so whatever that tells you.

If you love ramen and want something authentically Japanese, this is the place to be. Of course it cannot compete with the original Tonkotsu Ramen joints around Fukuoka area in Japan, but their ramen does beat many highly rated ramen places I have been to around the world. I especially like the many choices for different toppings, which was not an option in Japan. Services were sadly not up to par, because they were way under staffed with quite a few empty tables but a long lineup outside the restaurant.

Just ordered some delivery. Order arrived without the soup for the ramen. So basically we got noodles and some mixins. Called to complain said they would have to call me back after they spoke to manager about what to do. Never called me back after over an hour I called back. They would only refund me 7.50$ for the missing soup. The order was almost $40 for food that we can't eat? But they will only refund 7.50$ way to go!

Great food, bold flavors, truly fair prices. Don't miss it if you're in San Diego and getting out Zoo.

My wife and I found wanted ramen and found Tajima on a "nearby" search. Great atmosphere and extremely friendly and helpful staff. We each were recommended the Spicy Sesame Ramen. It comes with fat noodles but you can substitute with skinny (which my wife did). This dish is one of the most savory offerings we have tasted. Don't miss this place while in SD!

This is one of the smaller locations. They were busy the night we went - the wait list was in effect - but we were given two seats at the counter after just a few minutes. The kitchen was pumping that day, and the wait staff was running all over the place. Our seats at the counter gave us a good view into the kitchen, and it was interesting to see the huge vats of fried garlic chips (yum!), the string they used to cut the ramen eggs, and the finishing touches done to the bowls before they were whisked away to the hungry patrons. We were attended to by one of the waitresses. She was friendly, but I think she sometimes forgot we were sitting there. We had to ask a couple times for our water, and then a few more times after that to get them refilled. She was so sweet I didn't want to complain, but she did spend more time on the tables than she did on us. The food was just as delicious as I expected it to be. I went with the spicy ramen (of course), and it was divine. The hubs loved his ramen, as well. Did it take a bit longer to come out than we would have liked, and then seemed strictly necessary? Yes. But for some reason I remain mostly okay with all that. We haven't been back since, but that's mostly because we have a Tajima within walking distance. We'd come back here again if we were in the area. Oh, and if you're prone to chills, steer clear of the counter seat at the far left. It must be under a vent or something, because it was positively frigid there!

I just moved to San Diego and Tajima ramen is the best in SD so far. I like the tonkotsu ramen with gyoza!

Cozy atmosphere, offered good variety of drinks and good selection of foods. Enjoyed the quick service and friendly staff.

This place almost always has a line of customers waiting outside for dinner. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, a little past 2 and even though it was still busy, we fortunately didn't have to wait. We ordered spicy sesame ramen (fat noodles are the way to go!) and the tonkatsu ramen. Highly recommend adding extra veggies. Just an FYI the tofu is fried, and I wish I had known so I would have asked for soft tofu. Overall, the ramen was rich & tasty, and the staff was very attentive and pleasant

This is a great ramen place to eat at. The wait was a little long but it was totally WORTH IT! 😄 we all definitely recommend this place for great ramen!

Tajima Ramen was pretty good. What we wish could been better was the wait. The shop doesn't offer a whole lot of seating. If you have a large group, you only have two options - which means you're waiting around for 2-4 small tables to clear out before you can even be seated. Food was tasty though. Takoyaki was flavorful, the German fries were amazing and the ramen dishes were all quite nice.

This food is good the service is very bad. A lot of people arrived before and they got their food before, their system is totally broken.

We liked this little place. Seems like the ramen would grow on you the more you eat it. There was a bit of kimchi, sprouts, greens and tofu in with the spicy broth and noodles. The only part I didn't like was how some of the greens (like lettuce) wilted in the hot soup. We enjoyed a real sugar Coke and ate at a communal table. Service was friendly and the food came out reasonably fast. If I lived here, I'd be back!

Visiting San Diego for a few days and wanted to find something warm on a chilly night. This place was close, and I'm so glad we went. Great food and service. I wanted to go back the next day! It was noisy and fun--families, couples, and groups. Highly recommend it!

Four of us were in San Diego for a vacation, and after a long day at the San Diego Zoo we were looking for an interesting and fun meal. Just happened to find Tajima on Google. Saw the good reviews and decided to try it out. None of us had really ever tried ramen at a Ramen shop before so we didn't know what to expect. Three of us thought it was delicious. The fourth, well it's just not his kind of meal. I had the Spicey Sesame Ramen and loved it. Great flavor, just the right amount of heat. I'm typically not a "soup and noodle" fan, but this was amazing. Loved all the goodies in the bowl. I would have given it a five except for the noise/music and the confined seating area. The aesthetics of the place are not my bowl of "ramen", and I'd prefer a quieter more peaceful experience. I've always found that sake is always good for that problem, and the sake here was very good. I should also note that the service was excellent and the waitress was very patient with first timers. Given the quality of the food, I would eat here again in a heart beat. Too bad I live 400 miles away.

Nice to have Tajima in downtown SD but no good for lunch on a weekday and you have to return to work. Long wait to have a sit and even the food was served about 30 minutes after..so combine the wait for seats and the wait for food...you should have at least 1 1/2 to 2 hr lunch break! Food is great though...the place is small and they need more people. we had to ask for rag to wipe the table and chairs on the patio. Could get better on customer service!

We had to wait 40min outside to get a table as it is a small and popular place. Ramen were very good with good chuck of quality meat in it. Not just random small slices you usually get.

Tajima is a very good spot to take your loved ones for some yummy ramen . Although I genuinely love their traditional ramen flavors , the Carnitas ramen is a perfect blend of flavors to produce an out of this world Mexican ramen !! So flavorful

As a vegetarian I can really recommend the vegan ramen. It's so delicious and the tees are great! They have a lunch special where you get 10 Percent of. In the evening people wait outside to be seated cause it's so popular.

Good place for a nice bowl of ramen. The broth is rich, flavourful and on point. The noodles are firm and tangy too. I like the pork meat, there's fat on it and that elevated the taste. There are also others staple side dishes available, similar to other ramen stalls. I like the gyoza and karaage. Both dishes are pan fried and fried respectively to perfection. Area is also conveniently located. Thumbs up!

We went for ramen after a long, cold, somewhat wet day at the San Diego Zoo and oh my, was it the right choice! The AF sent me to Japan for two years back in the 90s, and I live in Waco, so u can imagine the number of ramen shops with gyoza and karage on the menu that I've visited recently...this visit was terrific. A small shop doing things very well. The food was good, the service was fast and efficient, and the atmosphere was exactly what I expected. I would go back again!! The prices were also VERY reasonable. I personally had the crab poke bowl. Unlike some places, Tajima uses real crab in their dish, not K-rab (yech...). It was awesome!

What a pleasant surprise! We were not expecting this variety in flavors and dishes from a Remen place. We will be back, and so should you!

I have had a lot of Ramen in NYC, but this was even better. Great options and high quality food. Service could have been little better. Also could have been more kid friendly.

Talking value for money it does not get better than this. We all loved our ramen, and during our 3 day stay in San Diego we came there twice.

The Tonkotsu broth was not too salty so we were able to finish our bowls of soup. No salty aftertaste. All ramen bowls could be customized with various extras (pork/chicken chashu, vegetables, onions, 1/2 ramen egg, etc. We also ordered the Karaaage and the Takoyaki and these were also very good.

Ordered spicy pork ramen and creamy chicken. Staff was friendly, very attentive. Beers not so expensive, happy hour and late night happy hour available. Left full and satisfied. Good stop!

First off the parking is not good so prepare yourself. However once in this place the ramen is top notch. I ordered Spicy Sesame Ramen and it was delicious. My daughter ordered the vegan ramen and she loved that too. The only issue I had with our meal was that it took almost and hour. The server agreed that it was too long, apologized, gave us 20% off and served us some great edamame on the house. Apology accepted!

I had the special of month - spicy miso based soup with shrimps. The broth was far too salty and the noodles were clumped together in places so hadn't cooked through. Served with cold shrimps and bamboo shoots that were fridge cold - not to my taste. I didn't manage to eat even half the bowl. Chicken Karaage was good hence 3 stars instead of 2.

Me and my husband called in early on a Thursday night for a quick bowl of ramen and we were not disappointed. I ordered the Tajima ramen with pork and my husband got the tonkotsu ramen with chicken. Based on previous reviews we both got the thin noodles. The broths were super tasty and full of flavor, the noodles were cooked perfectly and there was enough in the bowl to keep each of us satisfied. The service was friendly and for about $11 per bowl, we really couldn't fault the place. Highly recommended!

Great selection of izakaya, ramen and street food favorites including Takoyaki. The service was adequate this time - I read the other reviews. There was, of course, a long wait on a Friday night of 30 minutes. Patience was worth it.

We walked down to Tajima after touring the Midway and it was well worth the walk. The ramen is tasty, the staff friendly and the place has a cool vibe. They manage to cook the gyoza perfectly. I would go back for sure.

We walked in to five other people waiting in front of us. No hostess and the phone ringing off the hook. Not one person on staff acknowledged us or the people in front of us. Not a host. Not a server. Not the busser. No one. I work In food and beverage. I understand a busy restaurant. I understand being understaffed. I understand a lot of things. What I don’t understand is how not one person on the staff looked over with a smile and just said “welcome! We’ll be right there”. We opted to sit at the bar. Waters came quick. Server shortly after. Not too bad of a ticket time considering it was busy. Server greeted with a smile and was friendly. Dinner was great! We had the tempura Brussels and ramen. If this review was based solely on food it would’ve been a five. Too bad.

Try it for yourself. Good food with good atmosphere. Our 12 year old truly enjoyed the food. The tap list reflected local popular beers.

We were worried about a long wait because of some reviews. We came at 5:30 on a weeknight and there was no wait. Our food was ready very quickly and most importantly it was delicious! Our family tried four different ramen soups. They were each unique, two spicy, one garlicky, and one vegan (yummy green noodles). The pork was a nice sweet contrast to the garlicky broth. The sesame chicken I think was the most spicy. We also tried some bun, which were really great. I would highly recommend Tajima, I don’t think you can really go wrong with anything you order...unless you get it too spicy!

We got here at 9p i think and luckily, there was a parking spot available. Needless to say, parking can be a challenge. Be prepared to peer further into the lot though as gps will just say you are here and this ramen place is the very end of the lot next to other establishments. To compensate, they have this huge vertical sign reading tajima and you'll know you're in the right place. It was full when we got there but fortunately only had to wait 5-10mins as there was another group (party of 6) leaving. My guests from out of state (canada, hawaii and virginia) were impressed with the decor and the food (presumably, considering everyone was quiet eating and ate it all lol). I myself enjoyed my meal and it was my 2nd time there. One thing though, my canadian friends are their mid50s and remarked that the place is full of noisy millenials haha. So,, theres that.

We waited 10 minutes but after thst we were served quickly. The ramen are really good and the personel was also friendly. I had not eaten ramen that good since my last trip to Japan. Well done guys!

The ramen is outrageously good. I ordered the spicy ramen and it was an explosion of flavors! The level of spiciness is just right. The soft egg adds a nice fattiness and silkiness to the broth. I recommend adding lemon as well! The tanginess from the lemon goes well with the spice. You will leave with a satisfied stomach AND your wallet will thank you for the good yet inexpensive gastronomic experience.

The ramen was excellent and nice! I would sure come to this place again but the food took an eternity. I still recommend coming here but don’t order too much!

If you have the patience, and you dont mind waiting up to 30 min to get your food, its a good place to eat some ramen... Other people were served before us, having them arrived after us, lots of opportunity in the service.

If you're into ramen - which I'm beginning to think could soon become more popular in San Diego than the beloved fish tacos - then try Tajima's East Village location. Order any of their ramen selections and you'll be very pleasantly satisfied. They're all great. You cannot go wrong here. For reasons unknown, of the Tajima restaurants in SD, this location has the best ramen. Not sure why - and after asking them, neither are they, but they appear to be aware of the phenomenon. Perhaps it's the water, the air, the mood of the cook, the decor, East Village's microclimate... Who knows? Whatever's going on here, it's working. Ramen is not easy. And a lot of places that claim to be making good ramen aren't doing it justice (there's one place that has been consistently screwing it up... I forget the name... starts with an "under..."). But this place is definitely doing a very, very, very good job. The textures and favors are all there; the comforting creaminess, the balanced saltiness, the firm noodles... getting hungry... need ramen... I can't make a particular ramen rec, but the Tajima ramen and the spicy sesame ramen are my two favorites. Honestly, everything here is good; the kimchi, the gyoza, the karaage, etc. And this is also one of the very few places in SD that offers Echigo beer - an excellent rice-based beer from northern Japan. Try it, you'll love it. My advice: If you're a party of two going for dinner, order two different ramen bowls and sides of kimchi and karaage and a beer each of choice (Sapporo is my particular fave, but check out the Echigo if you feel adventurous). You'll be full and happy. Itadakimasu!

Best noodles in San Diego! We've been to the other two Tajima locations but this one is by far the BEST! So authentic. The ramen is excellent, the gyoza is perfect. We love the atmosphere too.

Went here after visiting the San Diego Zoo all day so you can imagine how hungry we were. Seeing as the weather was chilly and I'm always game to find a ramen bowl comparable to those I've tasted in Tokyo, Tajima Ramen Bar was happily agreed upon as my last meal in San Diego. Parking: Parking was a little difficult to find but understandable with the dinner time rush just starting. We parked around the block of the restaurant near the neighborhoods. Tables/wait time: We read reviews that this place filled up fast so we came around 6pm and luckily only had to wait about 10 mins to get a table. Food: We ordered the Tajima original ramen and also the Spicy Sesame ramen along with a side order of gyoza. The food took a very very long time to come out but we waited patiently (while hungrily staring at our neighboring tables' dishes). Tajima ramen- tonkotsu broth was eh...not as flavorful as I expected and borderline bland. We sipped the broth so many times to make sure that it wasn't my imagination...however, the chiarshu was very good and tender. One of the best imo that I've tasted. Spicy Sesame ramen- broth was very flavorful- maybe a bit overpowering with the sesame. The broth left a coated/grate-y like aftertaste that made you want to sip a little bit of water between each bite to clear the throat. The spiciness was just right though. Egg was a little over cooked. Mid meal, the gyoza was brought by to us even though it was supposed to be an appetizer...I wish they had forgotten that order because the gyoza was disgusting. It was soggy and had a weird taste to it. Instant regret with the order of gyoza. Staff: Staff was very nice and did come by and check up on us a few times. We only ordered water but those were refilled quickly. Overall: An okay ramen place. Nothing too special. It is located in a nice place to walk around after dinner though which is a plus. If there's anything to take from this review is...don't order the gyoza. Just don't. Stick with the ramen if anything.

Delicious ramen. Great service. Open late hours. Reasonable prices. Plenty options on the menu. Clean.
