Waiters Dressed As Power Rangers Fought A Man After He Reportedly Choked A Woman Inside The Restaurant

With elaborate cocktails, pork broth noodle dishes and vibrant and colorful design choices, Oakland’s new NōKA Ramen has been described as the Bay Area’s most Instagrammable new restaurant. The Jack London Square hot spot has been generating quite a buzz since it opened a few months ago, and it hasn’t stopped getting creative with the visual look. This past week, that creativity involved having the waiters dress as Power Rangers to promote the restaurant’s signature cocktail. The decision turned out to be way more fitting than management ever could have expected.

On Friday, a woman ran into NōKA Ramen saying she feared for her safety. A man ran in after her and reportedly started choking her. The staff, once again dressed as Power Rangers, apparently took the woman into the restaurant’s kitchen and confronted the man, asking him to leave. That’s when all hell broke loose. The man reportedly started calling workers in the restaurant Asian slurs and threw punches while trying to get at the woman in the kitchen. The Power Rangers stopped the attack and threw him out of the restaurant. He reportedly returned not long after with a friend and tried to make his way inside again. They were repelled and eventually left.
