I'm not sure why but I always come to this food hall expecting more options and always have to settle for something I probably wasn't in the mood for. Case in point. I was drawn in because of the sign that said soft-opening (but I now see that this place has probably been open for longer than I realized).
We grabbed the Samurai special and a second dish. The special comes with a noodle dish, a drink from Kung-Fu Tea next door, and two pieces of fried chicken from TKK Fried chicken on the other side. The fried chicken was fine-two pieces fairly salty but nicely moist with a nice crunch on the outside.
For noodles, we got one shoyu ramen and one miso tsukemen . The ramen was really fine, certainly better ramen options nearby. Meat could have been prepared a little better. And I don't totally know why there is an egg in the tsukemen but not the ramen (which seems like a mistake). Usually would drink the broth more but it was just too salty to do so. But if I thought the ramen was salty, I could not believe how salty the tsukemen was. I'm typically a fan of dishes like this on the saltier side but this was almost unbearable and even burned somewhat. The minced meat was almost an afterthought because I just kept focusing on the flavoring.
One thing I will say, though, is that I felt like the noodles were prepared nicely and were plentiful. But this could not save the dinner overall.

This is only a review for the ramen. Did try the tsukemen.
Shoyu ramen - soup is okay with a slightly sour taste I wasn't expecting and not in a good way. Tastes slightly toasty maybe a bit too much. Toppings are sorely lacking. One slice of char siu, no egg, no nori sheet so know to expect less than usual despite the standard $16 price tag. Also seems to use thick tsukemen noodles instead of regular thinner shoyu ramen type noodles so that's also less great. Overall, edible but not great.
Onigiri with char siu - pricey ($4) for one small onigiri that is pretty dry. I'd say probably 75% size of standard onigiri and probably smaller than half the size of a konbini onigiri

Toppings were lacking but the noodles were fine.

Good Japanese Raman the tsukemen is the best and it gives you -2$ on it they might give you a drink because sometimes they give you sometimes they don’t

I tell you, it was the ramen for me!!! Everything was so tasty and rich in flavor. Also, the staff was very kind and helpful. I appreciate the whole experience. The food hallway is very peaceful and very neat and clean! Definitely going back with some people next time!

My mom took my sister and I to a food hall near her house becasue she said this place is her favorite spot for ramen. I'm from Hawaii so delicious Japanese ramen is a hard sell for me, guess I'm a little bit of a ramen snob, haha. I will say that the ramen left an impression. The noodles are so bouncy and wonderful and the miso broth, I got, was rich and full of umami flavor. Delicious! My mom and sister got the shoyu ramen which was clean and refreshingly flavorful. Those noodles were the star of the show though.
The service was also great. The female behind the counter was by herself when we first got there and I appreciated how hard she was working. The owner even came by to check to see if we enjoyed the food, that was really nice. He said he plans to open another branch soon and shared how he learned about making noodles in Japan. A little unassuming spot, with yummy ramen. I would highly recommend trying this place.

We came accross Yasubee in Flushing and were attracted to it by the very clean, cozy and pleasant ambiance. Their service and food? WOW !! Excellent !!
Their Ramen was exquisite and hearty... thick noodles, al dente, in an exquisite well-seasoned broth, I ordered the Miso Rammen, a very generous portion with plenty of minced pork, bamboo shoots, leeks, carrots and more. We also ordered the Pork & Chicken Gyoza (dumplings) which were incredibly delicious and delicate, and also ordered the Potato and Corn croquette, out-or-this-world good, which to our surprise, was served as a compliment of the house. Beverages were also on the house !
The service was impeccably fast, professional and friendly. As an additional bonus, we got to meet Steve, the owner, who gave us some background history of the thick Japanese Rammen. He is in the process of opening up another location in Manhattan, near FIT, which we plan to visit as well.
It was the perfect experience and perfect food for any day. I highly recommend it!!!
Congratulations, Steve, and much success...

Thanks to the exceptional service from David, Byron, and Nirma. From the moment I walked in, they made me feel welcomed and taken care of. David was attentive and ensured our dining experience was seamless. Byron’s knowledge of the menu and recommendations were spot on, making every dish a delight. Nirma’s warm and friendly personality added a special touch, making the evening truly memorable.
Honestly I love ramen more than every other food but this just left me feeling still hungry and kind of disappointed? The noodles were the most redeeming quality but we're way closer to udon than ramen, I ordered spicy shoyu and got a miso lightly spiced ramen with 1 piece of meat and only bamboo shoots. Honestly the best part of ramen is the cohesion between all toppings and elements and that did not occur in my personal bowl I was left sad about getting the wrong broth with a fishy taste after I made sure to order a soy sauce based option. And missing the classic ramen toppings. Also 1 piece of pork? Just not enough at all. Especially with no egg , or corn, or bean sprouts, it just felt like it was half done. If you l ike udon noodles you may like theirs but if you are a spicy ramen lover i Honestly would say to keep looking. The vibe was nice and very fast service but if i wanted fishy broth i would have ordered it ya know? I was left wishing i ordered something else i dont know if id come back but if i did I would be trying the tsukemen instead.

We tried the dipping noodles, miso ramen, and cold tofu, which were all super tasty! It’s located in a food hall so you can get boba and fried chicken with your ramen as a special. The owner was super friendly and chatted with us, can’t wait to go back!
absolutely amazing ramen and service the people here are great and the food was fresh and absolutely delicious. I came from far because everyone says it worth it and they weren't wrong. I was a huge fan of their gyoza i got 2 servings more. I'll definitely go back it was worth the trip.

Highly recommend this eatery! Delicious ramen. Everything about it was super good- my favorite was the broth. Genuine, friendly owner and chefs. I got the Samurai Special- which was cool because I got to try a variety of what Yasubee has to offer. In all seriousness - don’t sleep on Yasubee.
This is hands down the best ramen I’ve ever had!! Amazing flavor. Super fresh. Great service as well. The noodles were like butter, handmade and perfect.
ramen was very good .. i like this place
