    This noodle house keeps a huge swath of uptown—everyone between 107th and 145th Streets between Riverside Drive and Central Park West, to be exact—sated with its handmade Hakata-style ramen. Read more

    Spicy Tonkotsu: Our favorite among the spicy choices is based on pork-bone tonkotsu, and achieves its results with chile oil and black garlic. Read more

    I got the Thai green curry ramen. So rich and the noodles are amazing. The pork soft boiled egg does not disappoint. My husband got the spicy tonkatsu ramen. Amazing.

    If you go early around 6, no wait but it's also family hour as it was mostly uwsiders with their kids. Pork buns were good but still like ippudos better. Ramen also very good

    I'm so glad this is now closer to work. This location has great soba and donburi, if for some reason you don't want the excellent ramen. The kakuni ramen with Filipino style pork is amazing.

    The dragon tonkatsu is the way to go for those who enjoy spicy ramen. The broth is full of flavor without being too heavy. Pork ration is small (2 slices) so get an extra topping.

    The Green Thai Coconut Curry Ramen was delicious. Perfect balance of sweet and spicy. Be sure to also try the chicken buns!

    Spicy Tonkotsu. The broth was a little thick for my taste, but I really liked the addition of shishito peppers, and the spicy sauce on the side

    Super friendly staff! Gyoza was very salty, BUT the cold soba was delicious and one of the most beautiful dishes I've ever seen.

    Fast, very clean, high quality food. Not the best ramen I've ever had but very solid! Tasty broth - not oily

    Excellent Ramen with Miso being my favorite! The pork buns are the best starter and they also have a great sweet katsu curry.

    The ramen is outstanding. They even have a New York State Pinot noir that was delicious. I always appreciate local wine!

    A very children friendly Japanese restaurant, their ramen broth is not too salty and can be made with even salt in it.

    Spicy tonkatsu ramen with some pork buns. Less cozy than the 125th street location. If you order delivery be prepared for a very long wait.

    The pork broth is not playing around. We made the mistake of asking for the less salt version. If you need to lower your salt intake, do it everywhere but here. Low salt ramen just isn't right!

    The secret is the rice bowl- tuna Yukke don is not to be missed.

    Tonkatsu is great, tried the spicy but always go back to the original

    Get the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen: while pork isn't consistent (sometimes dry, sometimes mangled, sometimes dry and mangled), the flavor is.

    I got the shoyu ramen (asked for less salty) and it was ok. I was not impressed with the broth, but the pork topping was really good. The pork buns were great.

    The Ramen noodles are excellent. Skimpy on the pork. Why is an added side marked spicy but is anything but?

    Don't go low-salt with the ramen, just order something else. We plan to order a rice bowl next visit. Really cute decor!

    Get the curly noodles. Thicker. It's pretty good. Soup base isn't as deep as other top tier ramen spots but a solid bowl.

    Try all the apps, ramen is good but check what type of chicken they're serving you. Crab meat is fake!! Stay away. But good vibes overall.

    Kakuni Ramen is severely overrated. It's served in a large diameter bowl, which serves to quicken the cooling process and turns the oily broth into a slimy mess and the large chuck of meat inedible.
