Tara DeVincenzoNovember 3, 2015has a quirky style compared to most other revered ramen places, which is cool. go if you wanna sweat; get the spicy ramen.
Harrison JohnsonJune 2, 2018The spicy ramen is very hot. The shio ramen with tomatoes has a unique and delicious flavor. 🍅
Daniel MartinNovember 19, 2022Tonkotsu Ramen is okay - egg disappointed, broth was not umami enough, noodles were good, pork kashu was too piggy 7/10 Caro-Points
Sharon MalaconApril 22, 2017The ramen is good... but I've tried better ones... be careful because some of the ramen comes without broth (weird).... and I think it's expensive compared to others
Colin LeeNovember 12, 2017Chicken Paitan ramen is great and delicious . I would not order the tofu Coney Island again.
Can't go wrong with any of the ramens here, they're all amazing.
Blake OlmsteadOctober 28, 2015The staff is always helpful—if you can't decide they'll help you make the right choice. Extra broth? Order extra noodles.
Allison YuJanuary 27, 2015I personally love the dry noodles more. I've never been satisfied with any of the apps I've tried though
Serious EatsMay 27, 2014The tofu coney island sounds strange but tastes great. The epitome of Ivan Orkin's Japanese-American balance.
Gunnar AasenApril 26, 2015The noodles here are good and the praise is well deserved. I like the triple pork triple garlic mazeman.
GillianJune 19, 2016Mazeman❤️❤️ we had a bean starter special with nori that was amazing. Service was great!
Elie BleierAugust 15, 2014Creative dishes. Absolutely loved the triple pork garlic mazeman! Get the sour beer as well.
Amina HussainSeptember 7, 2014all the hype is real - try the triple pork triple ramen and the jfc as an app
Spicy Ramen is indeed quite spicy, but the delicious is worth the pain.
Jeremy BekerJuly 6, 2018The chicken wings were amazing. I wasn't as impressed with the ramen as I had hoped, but still very good.
Brook ShelleyMay 31, 2015Damn, these noodles will have you shouting, "kaedama" and making pleasure noises. Delicious
- Micah MoreauOctober 10, 2016Ivan is legit, but it's portions are smaller and more expensive than you'd expect. Broth and the rye noodles are delicious, but don't go in a hurry.
Amanda GluckFebruary 25, 2015Triple pork triple garlic mazemen. It's a light sauce, not a broth. Get it.
Neelu RaviFebruary 14, 2018The owner of this place is featured in one of the episodes of Chefs table (Netflix series). I was so excited to try this place out. Unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectation. Hyped up!
Charlotte ChanJuly 28, 2017My friend and I had the chili Ramen and the veggie Ramen. The noodles texture was unique and very good. However, both broths were too salty, felt greasy after having them. Too pricy for what it is.
Order the scrapple waffle (but don't Google what scrapple is). The fried chicken was also good, mainly for the liver parts.
Noah WeissSeptember 8, 2014It's fine. You expect greatness, and you get an average, slightly pricey meal. The triple pork triple garlic mazeman is worth getting.
Gideon OlshanskyMarch 13, 2016The shio ramen is a classic, and the fried oysters and latke are a nice treat
MichelleAugust 7, 2017Some seriously amazing ramen here! Cool bar where you can watch the staff cook.
y contentJune 27, 2014cool, lively atmosphere both indoors and out. and that triple pork mazemen is no joke. #treatyoself
John XieMay 15, 2014Fully-loaded Triple Pork Triple Garlic Mazemen in the backyard with a Sapporo on a warm summer day. 🍜☀️
Tongue appetizer, shoyu ramen, and seasonal cold seafood lemon and shiso ramen
- Christopher TaiJanuary 12, 2015Start with the braised beef tongue and finish with the Triple Pork Triple Garlic Mazemen!
Monica DamashekJune 6, 2014Tokyo shio ramen, pickled daikon and sake - great combo for solo dining at the counter.
Triple pork, triple garlic ftw. The tongue and scrapple appetizers were great too.
Iñaki AranzadiDecember 29, 2016Try green with garlic, and dry shrimps appetizers. Ramen is ok, very simple, don't expect and awesome ramen.
My favorite is the triple pork triple garlic mazeman. It's simply amazing, man! *rimshot*
Inna Ben ZeevDecember 30, 2014Very strong dashi flavored soup. On the smallish portion side (compared to traditional ramen). Wasn't hot enough. The place was to warm inside. Ok ramen, not great if you're a ramen pro.
Alice LiFebruary 27, 2017Poor presentation (the bowl was very dirty when served), and extremely salty. I got the Tonkotsu ramen and the soup was murky and tasted like pure sodium. Really had to try hard to finish my bowl.
Brian StraussMay 16, 2015Non-traditional take on the classics. The triple pork noodles were insanely good.
Rodrigo CantalejoSeptember 19, 2017When the Ramen lost the soul. I have very high expectations before go to Ivan Ramen... but what I found its a very normal Ramen, without flavor... Netflix 1 - Ramen 0
