The food was fantastic and you all serve the best ramen I have had so far! In addition to that, the service is top notch! Much thanks!! Cheers!
Great experience, friendly staff, superb food!!!The servings are huge. Def recommend!
This place is so people and children friendly! This place is the only first place I see that have children bowl and fork!!!
I had a perfect bowl and ramen, some excellent appetizers and a spectacular Pilsner from japan! it is a must try for ramen lovers.
I have had Ippudo in Osaka, Tokyo and Shanghai. This NYC location does a great job and the Ramen is great. Miss the gyoza that you can find internationally, but the pork buns were a more than adequate back up.
Love the foods.... it was great.....the stuffs was friendly and service was amazing ...... one of my fav place to go ...... can't wait to go there again 👍👍👍👍👍
Ippudo serves fast and hot ramen and the staff are nice.
Love their service and their ramen is amazing, one of the best I've had
A good place to eat and the food experience is very good
Somehow planned to eat elsewhere ended up at this location over and over again 😤 mad at how tasty and delicious the ramen is .. 👍🏼👍🏼
Loving this place! Yummy ramen, spacious seating, great service. Will be back for other choices..
The food over here is amazing, they have a ton of vegetarian options, which is pretty rare for a ramen place. It's their 2nd location I've visited, at both the locations the food was incredible. Since this is probably one of the busier locations, the service was a little lacking but overall the food more than makes up for it. I definitely recommend making a reservation before heading there!
Never disappoints! Ever!
My wife & I have been eating here for a long while. We have been to Tokyo twice and we can say that so far, this spot comes as close to Japan as we can get! Taste is VERY spot on with the ramen we had over there. Flagrant aromas from the broth, spicy is perfect for spicy lovers, pork buns are a MUST.
- We prefer lunch service over dinner service. It feels a lot more intimate and relaxed. Service is a whole lot better from lunch from what we've experienced!
Simply a staple for ramen in the city. Very tasty with a lot of local Japanese beer options to pair with. I got the Treasure Toppings and was able to split with my partner instead of gettin two orders (one person can just order the egg if they want). Tried the seasonal shrimp appetizers that were bomb! They should keep it on the menu all year.
Only thing is there is a wait since there are no reservations so you can expect a wait. Usually goes fast, just have a beer and wait!
Not a vegetarian but thought this vegetarian ramen was one of the better ramens I’ve ever had. Unctuous and creamy with a very mushroom forward flavor. I love mushrooms so it wasn’t a problem to me. We didn’t have a reservation for lunch and got a table right away. Communal tables for couples and singles but it’s big enough where you don’t feel like you’re eavesdropping on other tables. I recommend for a quick and delicious ramen!
Upon entry during 12ish on a Saturday we were able to get a table for 2 in 15 minutes which is not bad. The hostess was very courteous and notified us clearly and loudly when our table was ready.
We ordered the ebi Mayo, ribs, akamaru shinaji, karaku spicy and the classic Nirvana (forgot the actual name).
All of them were pretty good except for the ribs... The ribs were pretty burnt and we asked if that was normally how it was like and it was indeed supposed to be that burnt... Though it didn't match our taste buds as it was so burnt there was bitterness to the ribs so we had it returned.
Overall the service, food and atmosphere was great though. Worth a return.
Probably the best ramen I have ever had. Flavorful, not burn your face off spicy, and a great noodle to broth ratio.
Dessert was great…very light and great Yuzu flavor.
100% coming back.
The broth was sooo good - so much umami flavours that bring you on a.m journey from the moment the spoon of broth is in your mouth to the aftertaste. We asked for the noodles to be semi-hard so it doesn’t become too soggy so we can take our time to enjoy the bowl.I had the non-meat ramen, i would highly recommend the Nirvana Karaka if you’re looking for something spicy. The ramen can’t be vegan though since the noodles are made of eggs.
It’s a bit on the pricey side but worth it!
Definitely coming back here! To start the restaurant had very nice decor and a cool vibe. The staff was very attentive and did an exceptional job. And the food was amazing, I sat at the bar and seen all the ingredients that were being used. All looked very fresh and tasted great!
It’s good! But… not the best 🤭
The environment is amazing and service is very friendly!
It makes sense why all the local take their tourist friends here when showing them around! Great spot!
Edit - Went there for second time.
I absolutely didn’t like the fact that the server came and ask me to increase the tip to 30%. He literally came and in front of my friends asked what you didn’t like about the service, and I said it was good. Then he was like then please increase the tip amount and put the cheque in front of me. Absolutely unprofessional. Even though the food is good, but I just won’t go again!
Amazing Ramens. We ordered 2 vegetarian Ramen (forgot the names, but one had tofu, and one was spicy mushroom). Both were equally amazing and one of the best ramen I had. I liked the spicy mushroom one better.
A friend also ordered chicken bun, which wasn’t good (and she compared it with a tofu bun she had earlier).
Another good think we ordered was a strawberry dessert (again forgot the name), but it was quite innovative.
The ambience is good, there is a good wait time. Overall highly recommended!!
Loved the Ramens here. One of those few Ramen places that offer you multiple vegetarian Ramen options. Their speciality Spicy Karaka ramens were delicious. Even if you are a non vegetarian, recommend trying their vegetarian Nirvana Karaka Ramen. The portion size is just right. If you have a good appetite, you could also try one of their starters, before moving onto the Ramen. Staff and service was very satisfying. Recommend making a reservation to avoid long wait times, since the place is very busy.
Great service! We had the miso ramen, because we didn’t want to take the pork broth. It was really tasty. And we had the lychee soda which was okayish. The match crepe cake was pretty good too but a bit pricey for what we got. Overall great place and ambience. Would def come back :)
LOVED! We went here for lunch while on vacation and we were not disappointed. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant has a great look it, great place to have dinner for a special occasion. Our food came out fast and was AMAZING! We came during happy hour so we got to enjoy their great cocktails for a discount. Highly recommend, we will definitely be back!
- Service: Every time a new customer enters the restaurant, all staff members greet you in Japanese, which adds an interesting touch. The waiter was very friendly and helpful.
- Vibe: The restaurant has a cozy, clean, and nicely decorated interior.
- Pork Bun and Shrimp Bun: The buns were incredibly soft, and both the pork and shrimp fillings were delicious. The shrimp had a satisfying crispiness, while the pork had a delightful aroma. When paired with the Bon Chon Bun, the experience is taken to the next level.
- AKAMARU SHINAJI and KARAKA SPICY (both with added egg): The Karaka bowl had a delightful spicy aroma. Both bowls featured a creamy tonkotsu broth, fresh pork belly chashu, bamboo shoots, scallions, and perfectly marinated, jammy eggs.
- Yuzu Souffle Glace: This dessert was very refreshing. After indulging in the richness of the ramen, the sourness and sweetness of this dish helped balance my palate, making it a wonderful way to conclude my lunch.
- Overall, we give this restaurant a 5/5 rating. Highly recommended for all ramen fans.
The bao slider was my favorite thing we got, but the vegetarian ramen is delicious too!
I’ve been to multiple Ippudo locations over the years. It’s always good. I will say the seating is more community style which I don’t love but you can also reserve in the dining area vs the main room.
Love the communo table here! It reminded the shared table in the tv show Midnight Diner. The ramen was great! Loved the Akamaru shinaji. The buns were great, especially the veggie one. The matcha tiramisu was also good. Will come back!
