Smash BurgersMains

Smash Burgers

Thin, crispy-edged patties on a toasted bun with a tangy house sauce. The key is a screaming hot griddle and committing to the smash.

Yakiudon CI WayBowls & Noodles

Yakiudon CI Way

Thick udon noodles stir-fried with marinated ribeye and fresh vegetables. The baking soda trick makes the beef incredibly tender. This is a house staple.

Built like a Chipotle bowl but better. Smoky BBQ chicken over rice with all the good stuff — corn, black beans, fresh avocado, and a tangy BBQ ranch sauce.

Warming Beans + Veggie Stew

A hearty, soul-warming stew that comes together fast. The kind of thing you want on a cold weeknight — deeply savory, filling, and surprisingly simple.
