    Try the Akamaru ramen if you like miso. The broth was delicious, and the service was great. 🍜

    Ramen! Waiting time is usually an hour or more. So put your name on the list and grab a beer. It's worth the wait.

    Veggie buns are amazing, even better than the pork buns (which may be the best in the city).

    is the menu here worth the visit? hell yes. But, having lived in Asia now for 2 years, its tough to appreciate the ramen. Pork buns definitely rival Momofuku!

    Best Rammen and Sticky buns around and lines out the door to match. Sticky buns worth the wait.

    Get the cucumber, pork buns, and a ramen.. My fav is the spicy one with a tonkatsu base. Also, I like extra scallions and freshly ground sesame seeds.

    Order the new ramen "hakamen." That's hard noodles to you ;) The new ramen appearing in soups here came out softer than usual on a first try.

    The Akamaru Modern ramen was the best ramen I had outside of Japan, although I am sure the others are amazing too! Get the extra special pork belly, if you know what I mean!

    I have a gastronomic romance going on with Ippudo. Typically pork buns, your favorite ramen with pork belly, and that thousand layered cake.

    Favorite "traditional" ramen spot in NYC. Try going at lunch to beat the wait

    Snap! The Miso Ramen might be my new favorite - get it with the added pork belly and you're in for a rich and filling treat.

    Interesting beer selection and side plates. Try the fried peppers. The ramen was very good, but not the best I've had.

    Excellent ramen (and fast service). Note that they will not seat you unless your entire party is at the restaurant.

    If you get the veggie option make sure to thoroughly stir in the wasabi topping first. Yum!

    This place gets packed! Don't be one of those people who chit chats and loafs around while everyone else is waiting to get their noodle on. Slurp, pay, get out.

    Insane wait but worth it. Unique Japanese chant by the staff when you enter. If it wasn't obvious, order the ramen.

    The "modern" ramen with seasoned egg was fantastic, best ramen I've had in years. Worth a try!

    Delicious noodles and surprisingly good sake cocktails. Expect a wait of 45+ minutes on any given night.

    I loved the ramen but mostly because they weren't as strong and rich compared to the Ramen in Tokyo

    Best ramen ever. We normally grab the edamame, pork buns and the Akamura Modern. Delicious!

    Pork bun is ridiculously good. Salad dressing (wasabi based) is insanely good. Communal seating, great ambiance.
