Best ramen spot in the area! Homemade broth that’s delicious everytime we go. Service here is amazing, they make you feel like family. We had Yuki both times and it felt like she remembered us even tho it had been a while since we were last there. Ask her for recommendations if you’re overwhelmed she won’t steer you wrong!

Stumbled here after a picnic in Central Park and saw this place had a variety of food options. We tried their Yellowtail Sashimi special which comes in a ponzu sauce so that was easily amazing. For entrees we had the Tabata ramen and Pork Katsu Curry. The ramen was super unique to me with a coconut based chicken broth, which kinda gives it a creamy light flavor that was made even more enjoyable with the hints of spicy across. The katsu curry was cooked well, tasted great, and came with pickled daikon which makes it so much better.
I think this would be a 5/5 if they also had some lettuce along with some pickled jalapeños for the Katsu Curry and for the ramen, the coconut was overpowering to me in the sense that I didn’t really taste the chicken flavor and the red onions really contributed to the flavor so when I ran out it lost a bit of flavor. But these are just my personal tastes and overall, food was still very good and would definitely come back and recommend for people to try!

This is a casual and relaxing Japanese restaurant with very fresh and impressive food and cocktails. Excellent size servings, lovely Service and soothing music. I had the best organic salmon with lots of sautéed onions, broccoli and carrots in a teriyaki sauce that was delicious. The salad was a nice fresh serving. My friends were very happy. I will definitely come back! The food is excellent!

This review is more like 4.5 stars, as it is based on just one food item I had here. I will definitely come back in the future and may adjust my rating upward or downward as appropriate. Anyway, I stopped in one afternoon for a quick lunch. I had 20 minutes and decided I’d give this a try. I ordered the soft shell crab roll, as I just love soft shell crab anything. Anyway, I must say, this was really delicious! The roll was very filling and tasty, although I felt it had a little too much sauce on top. I walked in here without having researched the restaurant, and after reading the reviews now, after the fact, I will make it a point to come back for the ramen, especially in the winter time, which is my favorite time for ramen. This place is less than a block from my apartment, so I’ll definitely be back. Oh, and the hostess was so gracious, she even took my phone and plugged it into an outlet for me to charge my phone when I asked if there was an outlet I could use. Everyone else in the restaurant was very friendly too. Will be back!

Been here a few times and always love it. Rare to have a local Japanese spot that serves classic authentic favorites instead of only “trendy” dishes! Love their soba, okonomiyaki, and takoyaki.

Got the Nabeyaki Udon and Gyuu Ramen. Both had tasty broths with the udon having a nice savory broth while the ramens were a bit sweet. Portions were great too!
The young lady that took care of us was excellent and super nice.
Just finished eating here and couldn’t get enough of the food and wonderful service! I had the katsu curry and it was phenomenal! The house made curry really makes a huge difference! Also the atmosphere and service was genuinely beautiful. Yuki took time to answer my questions and give me insight on the food. 10/0 coming back here with my friends to try their sake collection!!

Really enjoyed this spot— we tried the spicy tantan ramen, several types of yakitori skewers, and the fried chicken bao. All were excellent as well as the service.

here’s the sitch, long day and i’m looking for a bowl: a big bowl - a bowl of ramen, tan tan men specifically. And this place has it. So, i make my way, one foot in front of another. Ok, I’ll preface i get there 45 mins before close on a tuesday, not an exciting time to host but alas. T cut to the chase, i get tan tan men it frankly didn’t hit the spot, and im a tan tan men GUY. The noodles themselves, great. But beyond that i mean some red onion and cilantro, some tiny piece of chicken thrown in there and the broth, there’s appears so much of it, especially against the backdrop an utter lack of toppings. Look, i’m fine without a lot of toppings, but the broth needs to be the best i’ve ever had if that’s the case.
In reality, i’m scathing for the fun of it. it remains true that i’ve had better ramen, but maybe a better judge would be a bowl earlier than 9:15pm.
