Maxwell Foxman: Great to try their unique rice noodles + tripe, pork intestine, duck kidneys and other offal.
natesgirl: Can't go wrong with their #1
Serious Eats: Stir fried rice noodles are soft, springy, and gloriously stinky thanks to some spicy pickled bamboo.

Burak Bekdemir: Spanish mackerel sashimi was amazing. Ramen is made with fish broth, which might be my new favorite broth.
Eater: Okonomi does Williamsburg proud with waste-free Japanese lunch and exotic ramen dinner. The set menu always involves a bowl of rice and miso soup, the veggie accompaniments vary seasonally. Read more.
Dave S: Simple and serene. Every day there is one set meal for $9 in the traditional Japanese ichi ju san sai style, one soup and three sides with seasonal ingredients. Love it here.

Sergey Smirnov: The ramen will change your life. Excellent service with the authentic booths. Make sure to add egg.
valerie: Dining alone here just feels right. Just like the ones in Japan (except there's a section for group tables, and it's at least 3x more expensive).
Tom: Inconvenient to get to, a little pricier than the comp (especially w/ toppings), but it's simply the best bowl of ramen outside of Japan. Hype seems to have dyed down, no wait for lunch on a weekend

Dan Money: Excellent. The ramen is great but the mazemen is phenomenal, ask waiter for rec of the day and obey unequivocally. Worth the wait, get a drink nearby at Bushwick Country Club.
Village Voice: The Ankimo Miso Ramen features noodles which swim in a creamy monkfish liver broth with torched squid and bitter dandelion greens. Kind of weird, but it tastes like you're eating the ocean.
Gregory Fisher: The bacon and egg is so good I literally ordered another one right after the first...get it!
