HA!  I get to be the first person to review, and who better than a real Japanese person with more Ramen experience in Japan than 99.9% of Vegas.\n\nI actually think that I may have eaten at Ramen Sora in Sapporo more than 10 years ago, as Ramen Sora is somewhat well known ramen restaurant chain in Sapporo.\n\nAs some of you may know, Sapporo style ramen is miso based (as opposed to Hakata style is tonkotsu based or tokyo style is soy sauce based), and this place is no exception, miso being their specialty, although this restaurant serves miso and shio (salt) style broth.\n\nThis restaurant is located in a building that was formerly occupied by \"Whale Island\" Korean restaurant, but inside, the decor is simple and modern Japanese now.\n\nThe menu is simple as an authentic ramen house should be:  Shio and Miso, and you could choose several toppings as well as side dishes.  Unfortunately, they don't have their liquor license yet, so I could not have beer, and they also ran out of gyoza during lunch hour, but I did have their fried rice which was as good as that of Monta's.\n\nI had spicy miso, and also tasted my wife's miso ramen, and let me tell you....if you like miso ramen at Monta....you will be blown away.\n\nI personally do not like miso ramen at Monta, and just stick with their tonkotsu ramen, but spicy miso ramen at Sora is the real deal.  Very thick, flavorful, and a lot of umami, and has a lot more of a \"kotteri\" flavor and texture like the real sapporo ramen should have.  I would rate this spicy ramen A, as opposed to monta's miso ramen being B- for me.  \n\nIn summary, this is a REAL Japanese ramen house with Japanese chefs and waitresses.  Not some bogus ramen house with waitresses dressed in anime character and stuff.  This is where you go if you want the real deal and I am so happy to have another ramen house that can give Monta a run for its money, as well as having more dining space so that you don't have to wait forever for the hipsters and non Japanse asians to finish twittering and Fb'ing their dining experience as you see in Monta.
