A: I go only when I want covered parking. That is it. It's pricey, cluttered, looks dirty and normally has a bunch of elderly or weirdos sitting in the chairs just as you walk in. 2 stars for the covered parking.

Q: negative

A: My family adopted a 5-year old dog from Kit Kat over Labor day weekend. She is such a sweet, loving dog and would sit on your lap all day if she could. During the second day of having her, we noticed several ticks on her (one the size of a pencil eraser)! We treated her immediately since our vet was closed for the holiday weekend. She had a terrible cough as well (which I know is common with rescues) and was oozing from her eyes. We were told that she was doggie door trained and housebroken. While she does use the doggie door, she has destroyed my living room carpet with urine. I know that rescues often have very little information on their intakes, but should make every effort to be truthful. I am so disappointed because I know Kit Kat has good intentions, but I am very concerned about the other animals having issues and potential adoptive families not having a clue until they get home.

A:
Truly, I've experienced better. As other Yelpers have noted, I am sure this place has improved quite a bit since it first opened. What I found most off-putting from my first couple of visits, though, was the service! I sincerely value good service, and good service wasn't what my friends and I received at Republic Ramen. To play devil's advocate, I usually do go to Republic Ramen with rather large groups of friends. I can see how this can get to be overwhelming, with 15+ hungry adults placing orders and demanding food right away. I just felt like some of the staff could have been nicer/less rude/more attentive? The food was also...okay. I didn't think they were particularly memorable dishes in any way. Same goes for the boba tea shop next door (which is part of the same restaurant, I believe). I might give Republic Ramen another shot--this is one of the closer ramen shops in my area, so I definitely want to give it anther go. I do hope the experience is more enjoyable this time around.
