"Tenho Ramen has origins in Kurume, Japan and serves tonkotsu ramen, the style of ramen commonly found in New York that uses pork bones for the rich, creamy broth. At Tenho — now open at 542 Third Ave., near East 36th Street — that tonkotsu ramen is prepared specifically using the yobimodoshi method, which refers to using the same soup stock every day and adding to it little by little, further amplifying the richness and creaminess of the broth. Chef Takafumi Hayashi has previous experience at Taiho Ramen, a respected ramen shop in Kurume that has been around since the 1950s. He went on to open his own restaurant called Tenpo Ramen. The new NYC restaurant Tenho is a version of it. There are seven ramens on the menu, ranging from $15 to $20. These include a traditional tonkotsu with chashu pork; a spicy tomato broth ramen topped with bacon, basil, and parmesan cheese; a ramen topped with ribeye steak; a spicy cod roe ramen; and a vegetarian option. They’re served in a space that evokes most NYC ramen shops, with casual seating for 43 and lots of wood. There’s also a bar area. The menu also goes beyond ramen with a list of cold and hot appetizers and two rice dishes. There are also skewers, many of which are wrapped in pork belly or bacon, though there are some vegetarian options, too. They run $3 to $8. A “chef’s assortment” includes two beef skewers and three meat-wrapped ones for $20. For drinks, expect a lengthy list of sake as well as a rotating selection of shochu and whisky. There are also cocktails, including takes on classics like a gimlet made with a Kyoto-based gin, a shandy made with yuzu, and an old fashioned made with a Japanese blended whisky. Tenho Ramen is now open for dinner from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. all days except Sunday." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya

I'd like to say that I've been wanting to come here for a loooong time. Everytime I drive towards the midtown tunnel I've been seeing this place for years. My expectations being a foodie wasn't too high since they didn't seem like a high end shop. However, there is a standard to things I expect. Here's my thoughts: Ordered: 2 beers, takowasa, cucumber tataki, chasu pork bun, tenho kureme ramen and spicy ramen. The 2 beers were the best things we ordered. The takowasa never came and we had to order it again. However when it came it should have been called just tako-NOwasa. There was literally no wasabi flavor at all. This + the cucumber was scooped out of a bucket premade. The cucumber dish smelled nice but when we tasted it, it was an overwhelming flavor of just the sesame oil and nothing else. Very bland. Even the chasu pork bun was salty af and the cut isn't the normal compared to any other ramen place I've been to. Now the ramen itself... My soup broth was thick and oily. The noodles were not Japanese noodles and it didn't come with an egg! This was a $3 up charge! Lol. Now here's the kicker. My gf ordered the spicy ramen. Up to spice level 2 it was free. Spice level 3 was an up charge of $2 and level 4 was $3!! WHO DOES THAT?! Even the spice itself wasn't a Japanese ramen spice. Very sad, shed a tear cause I've been waiting to try this place. The people were pretty nice but that is not enough for me to want to come back here.

Fantastic Japanese Food... super satisfying! Filled me up in no time. The service was very sociable and friendly! The Spicy Tomato Ramen is awesome, the soup is so Yummy. Squids salad is very fresh also, highly recommend!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! The Tenho just soft opened today and the restaurant really surprised me. All of their meats for grilling are delicious! You really can't go wrong with the BBQ Beef or the Ramen. I would also highly recommend the Cream Cheese Salad. Drinks are also large and good,I like the ice green tea! Overall,it's the place for a perfect date, get together, or just a treat yourself date!😄

Service was good, place was quite clean, but food quality could improve. We came there for dinner and it was a perfect set-up because it was cold and windy outside, hoping to get some good authentic ramen. They seemed to be understaffed, but we didn’t care about that and could understand. The service was friendly and quick. We ordered okonomiyaki and ramen (Tenho and spicy). While the okonomiyaki was good, the ramen was not. The broth was too starchy, as if they used the water to cook the ramen. It didn’t taste or look good. Sorry, couldn’t recommend the ramen.

Ramen was standard, nothing to complain about. Ordered the spicy ramen and there was a ball of paste to mix into the soup. Taste was good except the soup became very thick after the paste. Noodle texture was good. Great service and the servers were really sweet and welcoming. Bathroom was clean too. I’d come again!

We tried tomato ramen, garlic ramen and vegetarian ramen along with sake. The food was filling and decent. The service is quick and the host is very warm. Washrooms are super clean.

I stopped at Tenho during the heat wave to cool off because I heard they had cold chuuka noodles. The noodles were really good, they reminded me of my time in Japan during the summer. I also had their chive skewers which are freaking amazing. And I also had their lemon sour, it was really refreshing. I walked out cool and crisp until ten minutes later the summer heat had me dead again. Overall it was good, will be back.

Amazing ramen, seriously. Pricing is a bit expensive, but it is definitely worth the price. The ramen broth is a bit thick, but not too thick (I got the Kurume Ramen). The broth is so rich and delicious. You definitely taste it with every bite and slurp. I got the lunch special and ordered Karaage as part of my lunch special combo. The ramen itself was so filling, I struggled to finish!!! The Karaage was so delicious, it was topped with Japanese mayo and a type of sweet and savory brown sauce. The pork slices themselves were absolutely amazing. It was the best part of the ramen. The egg was cooked to perfection and the noodles had the right firmness to it. There is also a large selection of sake and Japanese liquor here. Even the water tasted super filtered and refreshing. The restaurant tables were also very clean, tidy, and hygienic. The waiter was extremely attentive and refills your cup constantly. Overall, high quality ramen is served here and I recommend it to anyone and everyone.

We had take-out spur of the moment the other day -- Best. Ramen. Ever!! We had the garlic/pork one and the chicken broth one (subbing tofu instead of chicken pieces) -- great! Chicken bun and dumplings were great -- but they really should allow a steamed dumpling option if you don't want fried IMHO. And I think they leave off some items in the restaurant from UberEats -- I hope they soon add those in, or we would have ordered more!

Last year's review. I'm late watching the ball drop on TV with my lovely pets! I came here with my friend who lives close to this Ramen place. We looked for some ramen place and stumbled upon this one m. Not bad. I had vegetarian ramen, and she had Hokkaido ramen. I loved my ramen. They put enough vegetables in the broth. Nice flavor of vegetable broth. She said Hokkaido ramen was delicious too. Shu waited at our table. She brought me spicy paste when I asked for some hot sauce. Wow! It's homemade spicy paste, ouch! Please don't use it a lot. Just add a little tiny bit! This is a great ramen place with nice table spacing, although it is not crowded during lunch this weekend.

Let's keep this simple. The food is delicious. The wagyu ramen was well prepared and the broth had the most flavor I've ever tasted in any ramen. The service was quick and attentive. The restaurant is small but not suffocating. The main down side is it is in Manhattan and the prices reflect that. If you're willing to treat yourself, do so here.

Solid Ramen spot in Murrayhill that you can almost always get a seat at. It's not the best Ramen I've ever had, but the prices are reasonable, and the interior tends to be pretty chill, which is nice when you're just looking for a cozy ramen night! Servers are all super friendly, and it doesn't take too long for the food to come out either!

Came here via the Seated app! Another great place where you can gain rewards while eating great food in NYC. Feel free to DM me for details on how to earn! I decided to spoil myself and order a bunch of small plates and Tenho did not disappoint! All the apps and skewers came out hot and cold (appropriately). My favorite were the steak skewers and the prawn. They were seasoned so well and the meats were so tender and delicious. I got alot of food for about $94 before tax and tip but felt it was definitely worth it! I will definitely try this place again if I'm in the area and get some ramen next time^^

I strongly suggest the spicy Ramen with a soft boiled egg. The menu is extensive, and the Ramen broth is rich and creamy. There is plenty of seating and a nice bar with good options. The customer service is great. You can also visit the restaurants for the world's most complicated and high-tech toilet.

okonomiyaki ! The ramen is also good. My Japanese hair dresser recommended this place.

Came in For early dinner. Had the cucumber salad and the Tenho ramen. The cucumber salad is really good. Just the right amount of spice and sesame oil. The ramen is good. It can be great, but the bowl was a tad small for me (I'm 190 pounds), and the broth was pretty thick, almost gravy like. The flavor was great though, and the noodle cooked just right. The service was light, but it was 4:50pm so very early. Once you get the attention of the waitress she is very fast. Value is okay. Hard to tell these days with crazy price inflation everywhere in Manhattan. $3 extra for egg in the ramen. Not blaming the restaurant, but $3 extra for an egg.... Overall good experience and solid place for Asian comfort food. I would come back.

Tenho has quickly became one of my favorite places in Murray Hill. I have tried most ramen spots in the city and this place is easily top 3. Their ramen is flavorful and tasty. My go to is the miso ramen. I also suggest visiting for their lunch special and happy hour. I have also tried their skewers and they have quality meat which I appreciate. Definitely recommend checking out this place and don't be surprised if you become a regular like me.

The best thing I ate here was the cucumber salad! So delicious. The garlic ramen was good and full of flavor. We were seated at the bar and unfortunately there were lights shining in our faces where we were seated. We tried moving away from the lights but were unfortunately asked to move back. Service was a little slow. We had to ask for more water multiple times and to get the check and for the check to be picked up. Not a horrible experience but also not as great as we hoped.

Yelp
Service was good, they are very friendly. It was nice inside but the ac wasn't working. The chicken karage and takoyaki were my favorite, and they're well cooked. We also got the ramen, it was pretty good. The okonomiyaki was a bit soggy though. The chasu don was ok but wish there was a bit more sauce as the pork was slightly dry.

Mike Z.

Yelp
I come here all the time as I live very close by to the restaurant. Over the past few years, I have tried most things on the menu and I can say everything is solid to very good. As some others have mentioned, the tomato ramen is very unique and flavorful, and would be what I recommend! The skewer options at the restaurant are also quite delicious, with my favorite being the sausage. The wait staff is very friendly too, and the setting is quite clean. Overall it exceeds expectations for the average ramen restaurant in NYC.

I always get excited when I discover a new amazing ramen shop. But right now I'm not particularly excited... Although The broth I had here was excellent, the ramen, in its entirety, missed the mark for me. The bowl came out luke-warm, not hot the way I prefer soup. So, Starting with luke-warm broth, everything else just wasn't good. The noodles were very thin, kind of like angel hair pasta. The dish did not include a ramen egg, rather it had a "soft boiled" egg, which was gray and beige colored and tasteless rather than the rich brown and orange yolk of a good ramen egg. In all, This place needs improvement. It was satisfying because I was hungry, But honestly it was disappointing.

TLDR: Solid ramen shop near the midtown tunnel. Super clean, comfortable space and wonderfully bouncy noodles. I like. I've been meaning to try Tenho for quite sometime. The stars finally aligned and we stopped in for lunch. Karaage was crispy, well-marinated and not oily. Classic preparation, good execution. Takoyaki was delicately crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. There seems to be a lot of skewers on the menu. Perhaps one day we'll try. Got the Spicy Tomato ramen today. Decent heat, not really the type of flavor I was looking for but it was enjoyable. Think tomatoey, creamy, cheesy, bit of spice. Maybe something like a rose ramen. Bits of smoky bacon throughout, some basil oil and parmesan cheese. The knife work on that tomato plating was on point. The noodles though - so so perfectly bouncy and chewy. You can also taste that underneath all that tomato is a wonderfully rich tonkotsu broth for the base. So while I didn't love what I got - I know this place has got something special and I'll be back to try something more classic.

Great ramen place for a Saturday night. Not busy at all and service is friendly and quick. Ambiance is casual and they have good appetizers, drinks, and of course ramen. Best one is the garlic ramen and the spicy ramen. They give you a free calpico drink if you give them a review on Yelp!

Christina S.

Yelp
I absolutely love their soup. The broth is thick and silky and well seasoned. The noodles are cooked perfectly and the pork belly is amazing!! It's very flavorful. I usually get the spicy ramen. When I eat this soup it brings a smile to my face. My only complaint is that as of recently you have to pay a fee for an egg. Whereas before the egg came automatically with the soup. What a bummer, maybe it was done because the cost of eggs were up for a while. Paying 3.50 for an egg is a bit much. Are they organic eggs? Why so expensive? Especially since the price of eggs has gone down. Any who, I can boil my own soft egg at home for free thank you very much. I still love this place though :)

Henry W.

Yelp
The Tenho Kurume Ramen is heavenly. This is perhaps the most flavorful pork I've ever had and the Tonkotsu soup just melts nicely in your mouth with the right amount of taste without feeling too salty. The restaurants wait staff is also amazing and the food came out at an incredibly efficient speed. Definitely would recommend this place!

Essie L.

Yelp
Quiet place to have lunch or dinner, lots of solo diners. The ramen here is mediocre at best, there are so many better options in the city, I wouldn't have visited if not because I was visiting a friend in the area and we were lazy to drive. The soup base was not flavorful at all.

Anya H.

Overall pretty rich broth. Has gluten free option but not very tasty. Service alright. Bit too pricey. Not the best ramen I've had in my life, but it's better than the average ramen around here, take that as you will.

Ramen was decent. It was the only ramen place around the area with fried chicken for my kids. Staff are friendly and trying to help.

Ramen that satisfies in Murray Hill. I crave soup noodles at least once a week and there's not that many ramen/noodle spots in Murray Hill. Broth is rich. Noodles are springy. Cha siu could be thicker cut, but I do like that it's rolled up and torched. Egg is now $3, starting October, which is not too bad considering it'll bring the bowl from $18 to $21, on par with other shops in NYC. Would go back when I want something within walking distance. Service is super nice and attentive.

Sarah Y.

good service / good atmosphere (also spacious and quiet inside!) love that they have gluten free options (ask for rice noodles!) as for ramen itself, it was OK. could use more toppings!

The best ramen I have ever had. I ordered the garlic ramen and was so impressed. The noodles were great and tasted handmade. The broth was so creamy and had the perfect amount of garlic flavor.

Lovely experience! Not only do they have the usual appetizers but also have skewered meats on top of the ramen. Good same selection including local BKN sake which was great. Super friendly service and they even had kids cutlery and cups. Well decorated with Toto heated toilet seats too. Tip: had the spicy ramen and even though I can handle my heat, we were advised to take the 2 chili option. Thankful we did! Pleasant heat but boy that thing packed a punch. Great ramen though! Will be back for sure!

Fantastic ramen! Great staff. The fried tentacles are fresh and served super hot with lemon and kewpie Mayo. Ramen is legit with tonkatsu broth. Get the soft boiled egg! Will be back!

The best bathroom out of any restaurant I have been to. When I opened the door, the seat opened for me. Amazing bidet. 10/10 I have tasted a fair share of ramen. So first I have to judge the noodles. I think the noodle texture was not it for me personally. It reminded me of noodles I purchase at a supermarket and boil myself at home. The broth was very average for the price I am paying. This place is on the upper end in terms of price for ramen that I've had in California. The American beef skewer was 9 dollar per skewer. My personal favorite is the beef skirt however it was not memorable.

Laura F.

Yelp
Really disappointed and confused by all of the good reviews... I ordered takeout and the noodles were stuck like glue to each other in a big wad. Regardless, I assumed it was just to help with the delivery so I managed to mix it in and soften them up, but the broth flavor itself was bad. Really bummed considering they charge higher prices than other local places.

Tenho Ramen is the best Ramen restaurant in NYC. It's not just the food (which is delicious). It's the Management Shu and Ryo are so friendly and helpful, they are passionate about their menu and customers. We eat at Tenho often and everything is AMAZING, especially the karage, beef skewers, and all the ramen choices. The Waygu Ramen is my favorite. Tenho also offers a unique cold ramen dish and a tomato ramen which I have never seen before. The tomato ramen tastes like Italian Japanese food! We recently got married in Manhattan and chose Tenho for our rehearsal dinner. We had 33 guests at Tenho (a private event) and it was an excellent experience. It was one of the best nights of my life and I couldn't imagine a better venue and experience than the intimate and friendly Tenho Ramen with management Shu and Ryo. Half of our guests were visiting from Asia and they were blown away by the delicious Ramen. For some of them it was their first time in America and Tenho gave them a memorable experience. We even invited Shu and Ryo to our wedding because we loved the rehearsal dinner so much! I will update this review with photos later!

We came here after getting groceries at Trader Joe's nearby. They have a daily lunch combo from 12 pm to 4 pm for ramen and rice bowls. We ordered the "Beat The Heat" summer combo that comes with Hiyashi Chuka (cold noodles), seaweed salad, and Sapporo Pure Beer. It was the perfect meal for cooling down after sweating in 90 degree weather! We also ordered the A5 Wagyu Ramen that came with tonkotsu broth, A5 Wagyu ribeye steak, and a jammy egg. We added on a chashu rice bowl for only $3! The chashu was wonderfully flavored and the rice was the perfect texture. The Okonomiyaki was good and shareable. There's bar seating and table seating for groups and date night. The staff was friendly and the location was convenient for walking. They also have a daily happy hour from 4 pm to 7 pm with $7 for all house drinks: beer, sake, wine, shochu, and whiskey. We will be coming back to try the Kushiyaki grilled skewers next!

You can't have ramen season without ramen. That's just cruel. If there's a silver lining to Tenho's potential closure, please let it be that their new location has better foot traffic, cause you guys are sleeping on this ramen. My friend and I are self-proclaimed Ramen Hunters. I think if we're to get married, our wedding would have to be in Japan. In a bowl. Surrounded by pork. Yes, I know, you're jealous. And we'd hate to admit it but instead of trying out new places, we always find ourselves revisiting Tenho. If a vaccine doesn't pan out, Tenho's Kogashi ramen might be our only hope. Its river of garlic nurtures me like a baby cradled in its mom's arms suckling a teet for life. Yes, Tenho is my mommy. Every time I come here, there's always a new detail I find myself enjoy discovering. On the side of the restaurant is a makeshift alleyway/Japanese garden. The decal on the window is the great wave and the wave is made of noodles. It's all very intricate and the bar setup is always a nice date night vibe. I've seen a few awkward dates at this location, so it's a good thing they have ramen slurps to fill in those silent voids. And there's alcohol. Just drink alcohol, my dudes. Specifically any of their featured bottles from nyc's only local sake brewery: Kura. Due to street zoning, it's especially difficult for them to do outside seating, which is a shame; something about a mailbox and left turns. This isn't a call for the impossible but a suggestion to have a piece of one of nyc's better ramen secrets.

Go here. This place was the best ramen I have had. Order the garlic ramen with a side of chili oil. Add the chili oil. It is subtle and delicious. It tickled the back of my throat, but it was not spicy enough to need water. The broth was full of flavor and quite thick. The noodles were perfect. They had enough of a bite but not gummy or anything. The pork...wow. the flavor....the char...the tender way it disintegrated in my mouth. out of this world. The egg was okay. I cannot emphasize how much y'all should try this place!

We got 3 different types of ramen. Service was good. This definitely taste more like Chinese ramen. Broth is very thick and rich. For the price of these ramens, I was expecting there to be an egg or additional toppings in it already but we had to pay extra $3 to add the egg. Wagyu ramen ($28+$3) was alright. Broth wasn't that flavorful so I wouldn't recommend. If you were to get any ramen I would recommend the Kogashi Garlic Ramen.

Tunaidi A.

Yelp
Pleasantly surprised with Tenho Ramen. The noodles were the perfect texture and the meat was prepared well. The Tenho ramen broth was very good, but the garlic ramen broth was a little overpowering. The price is a little high. The $20+ bowl of ramen doesn't include an egg, which is $3 more.

Isabella V.

Yelp
I've been coming to Tenho for 2 years now. Their ramen is the best ramen I've had in NYC! 10/10 every time. I always get either the Tenho Kurume Ramen or the Kogashi Garlic Ramen. Spicy Ramen is a favorite too. I'd recommend the Tenho Kurume Ramen if you're unsure of which one to get. Their ramen is so rich and full of flavor. The noodles are cooked perfect, not too hard, not too soft. And the Chashu pork is so soft and flavorful. Their portions are also perfect, enough to leave you full and very happy! I really like their skewers too! (I usually get the sausage one!) The lychee oolong tea was very tasty too and had a good lychee flavor.

Jason C.

Yelp
Tried the Tenho ramen (tonkotsu) Smoky, fatty chashu that melts in your mouth every bite. Rich, clean broth with a tinge of smokiness from the chashu. Egg is a perfect golden color on the inside. Worth a try

Finally, and delicious bowl of ramen with near perfect broth, noodles and toppings without the 1hr+ wait at Ichiran in the freezing cold. Came here on a Saturday afternoon for a quick bowl of ramen and got the Kurume ramen, Spicy ramen, and okonomiyaki to share. The okonomiyaki was pretty average and I didn't like how there was no seafood or meat in it. The ramen however, did not disappoint! Everything about it really hit the spot. The broth was flavorful without being too heavy, noodles were nice and chewy, and the toppings were hefty and even came with an egg! The broth and noodles here actually reminded me a little of Ichiran. Would definitely recommend this place to ramen lovers.

Heather C.

Yelp
Reliable spot for some good ramen! I got takeout here on a lazy Sunday and it hit the spot. I got the vegetarian ramen and it was picture perfect--warm, salty broth with heaping vegetables and tofu. Price is pretty fair since I had leftovers. Not much to say about this Murray Hill outpost besides that it absolutely hits the spot for a ramen craving!

Mackenzie B.

Yelp
Decent Ramen. I was walking by this store front with my boyfriend and we were actually looking for a pho place around the corner, but we were starving so we decided to stop in. We ordered green tea to start because it was chilly outside. Absolutely delicious! We also ordered salted edamame as an appetizer to share. This was yummy and fresh. My boyfriend ordered some pot stickers for himself and said they were good. Of course we had to try the ramen for our main entree and I ordered the only veggie option on the menu. The ramen was tasty, but super basic. Seriously just one piece of broccoli, two baby carrots straight out the bag and some corn? Really? I enjoyed the dish but would not come here again. My boyfriend enjoyed his ramen with meat, but also agreed my veggie option looked quite sad.

I was craving ramen and therefore decided to try out Tenho: we live in the area and the cool outside interior always draws my attention. A clean restaurant with nice atmosphere. Staff is kind and attentive! We ordered Hokkaido ramen, Kogashi garlic ramen and one serving of karaage which came with little lemon and sauce on the side. For drinks we had yuzu soda and sake. My friend said the sake was better here than in other Asian restaurants around the area. Everything we had was a solid 5/5! Meat was perfectly tender and very delicious. Kogashi ramen has a nice smokey taste to it, which comes off a little salty, but it's still good. Ramen was $19 each. Of course cup ramen is not the same as restaurant-level ramen, but the price felt a little high to me. Regardless, I could come here again:)

Good service and food. Good staff. Decent ambiance. Would come here again. Nice for a cold winters night.

There is a huge lantern marked with "Tenho" at the entrance and the decor is authentic Japanese style. Their service was friendly, attentive and quick, the wait for Ramen after ordering took less than 5 minutes which was kind of weird and came too fast for us. We ordered Nozomi's spicy salad, chef's assortment skewers and Kogadhi garlic ramen to share. The portion of salad was quite good but it was too spicy with too much sauce. The skewers were amazingly delicious, juicy and well grilled especially the beef tongue. We highly recommend to order this assortment set which is a great deal. Their broth for Ramen was super creamy, thick but a little too salty. The noodle was cooked chewy with a balanced flavor of garlic. However, there was not much ingredient in one order. Overall, Tenho is a decent place for ramen.

Yelp
So glad to have stumbled upon this awesome ramen spot! Eating at Tenho has definitely been the highlight of our rainy & dreadful Memorial Day weekend. The interior has a traditional Japanese feel, but is modern and refined. For drinks, we ordered Asabi on draft and a Suntori Toki Highball from their solid Japanese beer & cocktail selection. Our appetizers included the Washugyu Ribeye Skewer, Shishito Pepper Skewer, and the Porkbelly Chinese Chive Wrapped Skewer (which was our favorite). The skewer selection was hard to choose from because they all sounded so good. Looking forward to trying more next time! I also got a Chashu Pork Steamed Bun, which was HUGE & one of the best I've ever had (and I've had many). The meat was so tender and there was just enough sauce, all tied together with the crisp crunch of the iceberg lettuce. The Karaage Fried Chicken were 5 pieces of cooked to perfection golden-brown nuggets served with lemon & Japanese kewpie mayo to dip. We also shared an order of the Cucumber Tataki, which is an addicting traditional cucumber salad that Tenho prepared very well. As for the ramen itself, I ordered the Washyugu which was incredible. I usually stick with a traditional pork tonkatsu wherever I go. However, I was intrigued by the Washyugu premium beef topping and I am so glad I tried it! The broth in everyone's bowls was creamy, not too salty, and very smooth. A unique touch was the whole soft boiled egg. Usually at other places the egg is cut in half, however having the whole egg was exciting to break open into the PERECTLY soft boiled center. They also have a great selection of traditional additional ramen toppings to add. To wash down the ramen, we got delicious iced matcha green tea. All three of us are seasoned ramen veterans from here to Japan, and we had zero complaints! In NYC, we frequent Ippudo Ramen & Momosan Ramen and this place stood out as a strong competitor. We will be coming back (maybe even tomorrow for their buy one get one 50% off skewer special)!! For the three of us who ordered a load of food & drink, the check came out to $150 which was an absolute steal in my opinion, especially considering the undeniable high quality of the ingredients and portion sizes of this food. By the way, the staff was awesome and extremely nice, you can tell they really care about this place. If you are looking for a casual but fantastic quick authentic ramen spot in NYC, this is the destination for you.

Love this place! Get the tomato ramen, it's super unique. And the wagyu rib eye skewers are insanely good too. I'd come just for the tomato ramen because it's so interesting and different from any ramen I've ever had.

A satisfying ramen experience for Murray hill. The Hill also hosts the famous morimoto spot but this place can compete in terms of a rich tonkatsu broth and the washugyu beef. I almost finished my ramen this time which is unusual but it was consistently good. I almost tried to get the $2 side of spicy paste but the server informed me I can actually get this for free at the table and I was able to enjoy additional spice for free. The space is open but cozy. Very much in line with a lot of ramen spots in terms of decor. They love the black on wood feel.
