Must-try tsukemen (dipping ramen) w/ rich broth & thick noodles. A top NYC ramen spot.
This Japanese noodle shop on the Lower East Side is a must-visit for ramen enthusiasts, particularly those seeking an exceptional tsukemen experience. Diners rave about the rich, flavorful broth and the satisfying texture of the cold, thick noodles, often describing it as one of the best ramen bowls in NYC. Beyond their signature tsukemen, the menu also offers other delightful Japanese comfort foods.
Specializing in tsukemen (dipping ramen), this Japanese eatery is highly recommended for its rich, flavorful broth and perfectly textured noodles. While the tsukemen is the star, other Japanese comfort foods like tonkatsu and shrimp cakes are also well-received. A few diners have noted the broth can be too thick for their liking, and some find the limited options, like only one type of ramen and tsukemen, to be a drawback.
Customers overwhelmingly praise the tsukemen, often calling it the best they've had outside of Japan. The rich broth and satisfying noodle texture are frequently highlighted, though a few find the broth too thick or the menu options limiting.
