i had always wanted to try this place, but i was gravely disappointed by the food when i finally did. it lacked flavor, and as another review mentioned, the ramen was pretty mid. that said, the staff was very sweet and helpful, and the service was fast. i'd be open to trying it again in the future -- hopefully the food improves!

It was all so delicious!!!! Forgot to take a picture of the ramen...but it's so worth it. Also had the chili wings and pork bun...all yes. And Christopher was a great server!

Still one of the best ramen places in NYC. The kimchi ramen is a favorite, as is the miso ramen. Brussels sprouts are also fantastic. They are also very kid-friendly with reasonably priced options (not always a given even in this neighborhood)

great service, amazing staff, good atmosphere but the ramen is incredibly mid. broth is average at best and the noodles are also okay. can’t comment on the rest of the menu (apps, etc). i’ve been here twice (four years apart) and there are better spots in brooklyn. will probably not return.

Miso ramen didn't taste of miso at all...

Noodles and cabbage both tasted undercooked. I won't be going back.

Really wish this was a better experience.

It is difficult to find a mid ramen place but this is def one of them. Everything from drinks to food is overpriced and NOT worth it. Oh they also charge for “NON CASH ADJUSTMENT FEE”. This place is a joke.

Solid neighborhood ramen

They have to stand in line for a long time to get delivery here, no one comes and sees the mobile.

10 to 15 min 25 min wait for a delivery I think they should stop delivery

The food slaps, but honestly the best part of the meal was sitting at the bar yapping with Angie, an absolute icon.

good ramen. I got the vegetarian miso (there aren’t many vegetarian options which is understandable because I know many broths are meat based) and the flavor was rich and umami. the biggest tell was me being perfectly content to just sip the soup on its own. would return!

Top ramen!

Very good soup, very good noodles. Nice assortment of snacks, sides and small plates.

Family friendly, too.

It’s been over two days since I ate at this restaurant, and I still feel like I was robbed. Located next to the railroads and busy Atlantic Avenue, the ambiance and service were good for the $17 price of a bowl of ramen. However, the content was underwhelming. The bowl came with only wood ear mushrooms, fermented vegetables, and noodles—no protein at all. Essentially, it was a vegetarian dish served in pork bone broth. To get both pork and egg, you’d have to pay an additional $3, bringing the total to $20.

Given the location and the lack of a strong flavor profile, the ramen felt like poor value. I will say that the broth was balanced and not overly salty, which was a plus.

The pork bun, on the other hand, was reasonably priced and had more ingredients than the ramen.

Overall, I’d recommend skipping this place if you’re willing to travel for better options like Danbo or Ichiran, which offer much more satisfying ramen experiences.
