For my vegetarians out there, the vegetable miso ramen was amazing! Even my non veg partner loved it. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and friendly. The ambience was intimate and cozy, which I liked. Would definitely visit again!

“After watching the US Open, I came here for a bowl of ramen — such a treat. So glad this place stays open until 2 AM. The oyster ramen was excellent.”

First time coming here. The lady serving us was nice, very energetic. However upon receiving my food I checked my utensil (the white spoon) out of habit and there was a cockroach leg on it, just stuck on it. I didn't manage to take a picture of it since I gave it to the lady quickly after showing her and she said it must've been because the entrance door was open. But usually if there's tiny roaches that means there's more inside the restaurant. Thankfully I saw it before I put it inside my ramen bowl but after that I just couldn't eat my food properly. I was concerned if there was a possible roach piece in my food and I just felt gross about it so I kept constantly picking at it but I did eat most of it. Food overall was ok, id give it a 4.5/10 but I wouldn't come back :(

Taking off 2 stars because of how long the server took to serve us the drinks we ordered initially and the food being ordinary. The server didn't ask us how's the food and if there's anything we need. My husband ordered their beef bowl while I ordered pork. He said that the food tasted like something I make at home so he's not that impressed. Me I just wanted to go to an Asian restaurant given we're in the area visiting.

Got a hankering for rice bowls while roaming around and found this place. We arrived when they had just opened so it was still kind of warm inside. The food we got (karaage, ramen & rice bowls) all tasted great, aptly portioned and arrived in a timely manner. The staff was kind & quick.

This is a great Japanese restaurant that lives up to its authentic roots to Japan. The food is delicious and the service prompt. The dumplings are soft and soupy, edemame are seasoned right and ice cream tempura is perfectly cooked.
Will visit again.

I’ve been coming here since it newly opened. One of the best and most consistent restaurants in NY!
Highly recommend the Donburi, Udon, appetizers and Yakitori menu!

We ordered agedashi tofu to share and I ordered beef donburi rice for myself. We came at around 7pm but it was very empty. Food was served after 15 minutes which was not bad but not reasonable for a restaurant with only 3 guests.
The tofu was crispy and so creamy. It would be even better if more salt was added. The rice was okish, not a lot of beef and mostly rice. We ordered 2 donburi and they were put in 2 closed containers. The waitress was not even sure which is which.
Overall, not the best Japanese but not a bad place. I will not return tho because there are better options in NYC

I normally don’t write reviews, but I felt I had to in this case. After seeing so many positive reviews, I had high expectations—but unfortunately, my experience didn’t match them.
We ordered the Tonkotsu and Miso Ramen, and both bowls were surprisingly bland. It genuinely tasted as if the broth hadn’t been seasoned at all. I’m not sure if the head chef was off that day or if something went wrong in the kitchen, but it was disappointing given the hype.
I really wanted to like this place, and maybe it was just an off night—but based on this experience, I personally couldn’t agree with the rave reviews.

Amazing food, nice and hot beef skewers were tender pork buns were generous with a nice sauce on top and ramen perfectly hot temperature and very flavorful. Highly recommend.
