Pork buns for the table! Get the ramen to share, little goes a long way.
Marisa MillardDecember 9, 2014
Everything was good. Get the paper buns and ribs for apps

They recently changed the thickness of their noodles to a thinner style which mutes up and falls apart after a few minutes of being served. Eat fast or go to kuboya on 5th or mitsuwa in jersey.
Morgan PolotanMarch 21, 2015
Wide variety of ramen, but the pork dumplings are to die for.
Gui SeizFebruary 5, 2013
Pork buns FTW - if you go in big groups (+3) be prepared to wait for hours

the best ramen joint on the island of Manhattan. my recommendation is the Shiromaru Hakata Classic, spice it up by adding Kakuni.
Gloria ChinJuly 17, 2012
Akamaru Modern Ramen, cheese ramen, pork belly buns and the japanese fried peppers
Jonathan AizenJanuary 20, 2017
Pair your Ramen with the tasty Brooklyn beer
Billy HenehanSeptember 20, 2012
Order pork buns as your appetizer. Ask for extra flavor in your ramen. Thank me later.
Marco GomesDecember 2, 2017
The best vegetarian ramen.

Go at the beginning of lunch time to skip the line.. Even if there's a line it's always worth the wait.
ginny hDecember 10, 2010
Ridiculously good pork belly buns that melt in your mouth. Ramen was good but not amazing. I've had similar if not better in California. Buns however may be worth the wait.
Tudor LeuMay 14, 2012
Pork buns and Akamaru Modern - do it! Long lines, be prepared to wait, or make a reservation in person earlier in the day.

Always come alone if you don't want to wait two hours! It's still just as good!

Pork belly buns, akamaru modern ramen, beer! Don't deliberate. Just do it!

Get the pork buns (it's true; better than Momofoku) and Akamaru Modern. You will leave a very happy person.
Ira BApril 21, 2015
The best pork buns money can buy. Worth the wait.

Makeda J.April 18, 2013

Come at 5pm ( right before they open the store for dinner ) is the shortest wait u could possibly get.
JessieJune 16, 2012
Shishito ==> awesome; Hirata (pork) buns --> also fantastic. The Wasabi Ramen special needs to be brought back.
Jess LeungOctober 29, 2011
Best Japanese ramen in NYC, as well as delicious pork buns. Prepare for the long wait, but leave immensely satisfied.
MaximFebruary 28, 2014
The ramen are obviously amazing - but try the yuzu sake too!
Samuel CrystalOctober 10, 2011
Try and vary your noodle dishes around the table and try a little of each others as there is so much variation Read more
Blake OlmsteadDecember 28, 2015
The atmosphere is what really makes this place great.
Danny ZhuApril 27, 2012
The Akamaru Modern with a poached egg is the way to go. Simply delicious!
Linda NguyenSeptember 14, 2014
Pork buns and the classic ramen with a soft boiled egg
Nicole CascinoSeptember 23, 2012
Specials that includes a free bun. Also a fantastic selection of quality sake. Cheers!
Anne LinJanuary 7, 2016
Try the shishito peppers and the Akamaru Modern ramen.
Simon KFebruary 24, 2015
Seemingly bought in noodles rather than freshly made, broth doesn't have much depth of flavour and ill-advised spring onion wipes out what little taste there is. Pork tastes like it's from a packet.
RCMay 20, 2015
Solid ramen. Get some of their house-made spicy paste.
Doug LNovember 26, 2012
Go there early in the day to make a same-day reservation. Suckers just show up and put their name on the list
Andre RibeiroJune 17, 2013
Best ramen I've ever had. The pork buns are amazing as well.

chicken rice bowl is to die for. (and the akamaru modern is obviously delicious.)
Nick IorfinoAugust 14, 2014
Pork buns are the way to kick off a great meal at Ippudo.
Tom MengMarch 3, 2015
Fun vibe. Delicious ramen and pork buns
Marcos MejiaJuly 7, 2013
They call you to be here in 5min because your table is ready then make you wait a half hour... Other than that the noodles and pork buns are good but Momofukus pork buns are better.
Amber VittoriaOctober 11, 2014
Best pork buns in New York. Definitely worth the wait.
Rami Haykal-ManningApril 30, 2016
Worth the wait, add pork if need be to your ramen
Chris McgonigalAugust 7, 2014
Everything is good, get the bao bun appetizer.

Strict as anything on their "if you're not all here now you can't sit" policy. + If you add a person after you've been seated they might not be allowed to order. PORK BUNS.
Theresa GOctober 14, 2012
worth the wait! start with the steamed pork buns and then try the the spicy miso ramen.
Angelica ObilloOctober 17, 2014
Pork buns are a must!
Adrienne SMay 9, 2012
Fab pork buns and yummy ramen. An experience. Even at 3pm we had to wait 45 minutes. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Brian EricksonMarch 9, 2015
This place is very very good but I'm not sure id wait in the line again.
Joan MatelliJuly 3, 2012
Add mustard leaf to you ramen. Savory, rich, tasty, and not too heavy like an added egg.
Carrie MSeptember 20, 2010
The Akumaru Modern is so so delicious. Charming ambiance, and everything on the menu seemed pretty awesome if the Akumaru doesn't float yer boat.
Colleen McGinnFebruary 11, 2012
