I'd come back just for the spicy tonkotsu ramen — the pulled pork is flavorful and delicious.
-
The crispy pork was really crispy, not soggy at all, and the broth had a great spice level.
-
It's my new favorite ramen spot — 10/10, and literally the best fried pork belly I've had.
-
The yuzu chicken ramen was outstanding, and the butter chicken ramen was delicious.

Go for the tonkotsu if you like a thicker soup, or the Kuu ramens for a lighter broth.
-
New flavors I hadn't found at other NYC spots — one of the best bowls of tonkotsu in the city.

The spicy crispy pork ramen and the gyoza were both fantastic.
-
I lived in Japan for two years — this is legit ramen, the most authentic I could find in the city.
-
Every dish was beautifully presented, and the sushi was incredibly fresh and full of flavor.

There's a good vegetarian option too, and the place is small but very welcoming.
