🥗 Looking for a refreshing and healthy salad option? Try our Cucumber Daikon Salad! Thinly sliced salted cucumbers, pickled daikon radishes, and fried shoestring butternut squash top a bed of locally grown hydroponic greens with our creamy, housemade Asian vinaigrette dressing. It’s light but full of flavor!
We love our Karaage Rice Bowl, but did you know you could build your own? Our Vegetable Rice Bowl is made up of steamed rice with roasted seasonal vegetables, chargrilled bok choy, cilantro, green onions and fried shallots. You can add Chashu chicken, Chashu pork, seared steak, or tofu. Make it whatever you want and enjoy!
🍣 Our Ahi Tuna is perfectly seared and cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and a tender, melt-in-your-mouth center! It`s served with a ponzu sauce, made with soy sauce and bright citrus, to elevate the flavor. We can serve it gluten free as well.

🍋 If you order the entree, be sure to squeeze the charred lemon wedge for the same sweet and sour effect. It`s great as an appetizer or an addition to any salad, too!
🍸 Join us at our craft cocktail bar! The atmosphere is cozy and elegant, and our mixologists use the finest ingredients and techniques to create delicious and inventive cocktails that are sure to impress. As a matter of fact, almost all of our infusions and flavorings are made in house!

🥃 This is the Nutty Professor, which is crafted with a house made pistachio infused bourbon, raspberry lemon shrub, lemon juice, and egg white.
Indulge in the rich and creamy goodness of our Japanese Matcha Cheesecake! This dessert is the perfect balance of both sweet AND earthy flavors. It’s paired with a tart lemon curd and a sweet white chocolate sauce, and the two sauces really take it in a different direction and to the next level! Try it this month for a limited time only.
🍜 Our Signature Smoked Ramen is a classic, and a great place to start if you`re new to ramen! It`s made with Tonkotsu soup, which is a creamy pork bone broth, and a shio base, which is clear broth soup, seasoned with salt. We add meltingly tender cold smoked chashu pork belly, napa cabbage, green onion, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, sweet corn, and a soft egg. Oh, and noodles, of course. Lots of noodles.
🇹🇭 Tom Yum soup is a popular dish from Central Thailand, and it`s a must try! It`s bold yet light, and bursting with layer upon layer of flavor.
.
🍲 The soup base is made from shrimp, spicy thai chili, and sour citrus. We serve it with white rice, bok choy, pickled onions, beech mushrooms, tender juicy shrimp and a large tiger prawn, and garnish with cilantro, thai basil, and a lime wedge. Get it now at 2nd Language!
🥗 Our Sesame Miso Salad is light, but filling, and full of texture and bold flavors! It`s made with locally grown aquaponic greens, purple cabbage, julienned carrots, red peppers, radish, fried shallots, black sesame seeds and topped with our house miso ginger dressing.

🥕 What you get is an explosion of colors, flavors, and crunch! Add your choice of protein, like chicken or Ahi Tuna. We also have tofu for those who prefer.

🍜 If you’re new to ramen, you may not know where to start. Our knowledgeable servers are always willing to answer any questions you have, but let’s cover soup, shall we?
.
🥢 Every bowl of ramen is served with 5 components, and one of those is soup, or stock made from proteins, fish, vegetables, or miso created over long cooking periods. At 2nd Language, our ramen is made with 3 different housemade soups to choose from:
𝐓𝐨𝐧𝐤𝐨𝐭𝐬𝐮 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐩: strongest flavor and creaminess, made from pork bone broth.
𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐩: creamy, white, and made with chicken bones.
𝐕𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐩: clear soup made by cooking a variety of vegetables into stock.

🍸 Heaven might taste like a London Calling. It’s crafted with Plantation 3-Stars, a white rum blend that we infuse with Earl Grey tea for an earthy note with hints of ripened fruit. We add Oloroso Sherry wine for a touch of nuttiness. All of these flavors together compliment the sweetness of the housemade vanilla bean syrup. There’s cherry bark vanilla bitters in there, too. Finally, we add a little lemon to brighten it up and aid in the clarification process, which gives us a flavorful, clear, silky smooth, well-balanced cocktail. Basically, it’s delish, so try one! 😊
