Agatha YuDecember 9, 2014Nice chicken broth (what Ivan is famous for), noodles are too soft for my taste though.
Leah HammerschlagOctober 1, 2014Good, but momofuku is better. I got the vegetarian ramen but thought the shio was much more flavorful.
Jimmy LuOctober 22, 2018Crispy eggplant was amazing. The tofu Coney Island was unique and good. The Ramen is a bit salty, but delicious still. Probably best veggie ramen I’ve ever had.
Hien LyNovember 21, 2014Utterly disappointing. The only redeeming dish was the grilled beef tongue. Ramen was passable. Okonomiyaki came out cold. Deviled eggs were mushy. Musubi rice was undercooked.
Jens HillmannMarch 10, 2017Ramen are good but not extraordinary. Quality does not quite match the high price, nor does the portion size.
Zhenshuo FangMarch 19, 2016Not authentic, very oily, over priced ramen. Not sure why ppl go here with so many other good ramen places in nyc.. :(
Derek StewartJanuary 26, 2015Not as good as ippudo but decent. Pass on the 1000 year old egg but order the Dan Dan noodles
Melissa LinJuly 7, 2017First time I came here, I was not impressed. Tried it again, and still not impressed. The pork was way too salty and the table next to us agreed.
Jules GuzmanFebruary 29, 2016Overpriced. The taste is good but the portions are really small even for Tokyo standars where everything is tiny.
Hildegunn NilssenOctober 8, 2017Disappointed by the (lack of) service. Focus seems to be on getting people through the dining process as fast as possible.
