"This sleek new Japanese restaurant in the Heights goes beyond the typical offerings with karaage, dumplings, sushi, handrolls, and rice bowls — but its ramen is still the main event. Bowls of noodles come with delicate broths, including its signature Yuzu Shop that’s made from a reduction of chicken, dry fish, seaweed, and vegetables with a hint of yuzu citrus, while the Tonkotsu Shio loads up bowl a bowl of thin noodles with an umami-packed broth and a topping of scallions, wood ear mushroom, black garlic oil, char siu, pickled ginger, egg, and sesame. Branch out with Afuri’s tsukemen, or dipping ramen, which comes in a yuzu-forward or spicy dipping sauce to dunk in the noodles, served to your preference, either warm or cold." - Brittany Britto Garley
