Ramen & Tsukemen TAO is tucked away in an easy-to-miss corner of an open-air mall, but the humble setting quickly fades once the steaming bowls arrive. The compact dining room is strictly no frills, though the focus here is squarely on deeply comforting ramen crafted with passion and dedication. A concise menu keeps attention on the essentials, from rich and creamy spicy red miso ramen to a lighter but equally satisfying chicken ramen built on a classic, Tokyo-style broth. Custom noodles from Kobayashi Noodle Factory are tailored to each preparation, ranging from firm Sapporo-style noodles des

Phởholic

Vietnamese, Regional Cuisine

We'll give you one guess as to what makes Phởholic a much-talked-about spot. Yes, it is the pho, and it's the reason why everyone flocks to this Westminster original (two other locations also lure slurpers). It's a classic shop that attracts everyone from grandparents to Gen Z'ers, all here to partake in the beef-focused pho.

Helmed by chefs have a century of experience under their collective belts, Koi Japanese Cuisine may have a familiar name, but this spot stands firmly on its own.

Though it has history and heart, these regulars are here for more than just a warm welcome. From orange clam and kampachi to Kumamoto and Kusshi oysters, the sashimi lineup is impressive.
