    Intimate. Ramen is smaller than the huge portions we're used to but it's enough and completely delicious. Cash only!!!

    Here's the thing: I'm going to say YaoYao with an egg, but you're not going to hear me. So I'll say it again: YaoYao with an egg. YAOYAO. WITH AN EGG.

    Yao Yao ramen was great! Broth was nice and heavy. One of my favs. Ambience was v cozy.

    Tired of ALL the other ramen you’ve had in NYC? Try the apple noodle ramen with Brussels sprouts and pickled carrots.

    We were here for the sushi and it's excellent. The five piece rolls might cause a challenge of you share, though.

    Kalifornia roll is cheap and the best I've ever had. The secret is their bonito flake infused soy sauce.

    Out of the many ramen places I’ve tried , this is one of the most underwhelming ramen (Yao Yao) I’ve had to date. I don’t understand why this place has the rating it does for ramen.

    Their tofu ramen is not vegetarian, their vegan ramen is a cold noodle salad. Go for a hot sake toddy instead!
