    Sanuki Udon
    Stephanie D.

    Found this place inside an HMart so I had to try it. They had a special offer for sanuki udon so that's what I ordered. It came with fish cakes but since I don't like fish, I got it without and asked for extra sweet potato. I need to ask if they sell that sweet potato on its own cause OMFG SO GOOD!!! I can eat that as my meal alone. The rest of it was good but be careful cause it's hot when it comes out. Don't wanna burn your mouth like I did cause I was impatient. lol! Because it was on special, this was $8.99 plus tax and it was a nice size. Had leftovers for two days.

    Who knew there was an entire food court in this H Mart? I ended up trying this vendor there and it's pretty decent. I had the Pork Belly Ramyun ($15), which is pretty good overall. There is some inconsistency with the pork belly where it may have been overcooked. I also got the Beef Brisket Toppokki ($23), which is one of their top selling items. The ddukbokki is un-cut and it's really long. If you love cheese, get it with extra cheese.

    This restaurant is located inside the food court in Hmart in Long Island City on 48th st near Northern Blvd. This is a takeout and eat in food court. The service was very pleasant and friendly. Service was fast. My daughter and I shared this military cheese ramyeon. This noodle soup contains ramyeon, 2 pieces of spam, bok choy, lettuce, onions, one whole hotdog, fried egg and cheese. The soup was very flavorful. We were a little disappointed because there was not enough cheese in it. There was enough food to share. We will have this meal again.

    I got the beef brisket Ramyun. Roth was bland, the beef was chewy and fatty, definitely not cooked to brisket tenderness. Ample noodles and veggies

    I have tried plenty of ddukbokki as the spicy and chewy goodness is hard to dislike but it's the first time I've seen long uncut option. The family set was $50 with choice of rice cake topping and sauce, we chose squid with the classic gochujang sauce, fried basket of deep fried veggies, shrimp and squid, and udon with choice of protein. We were pleasantly surprised at how well everything went together and enjoyed every bite! The rice cakes are perfectly chewy and soft in the same bite. They had a rose bacon sauce and butter garlic sauce that sounds amazing too.

    H Mart in Long Island City is my favorite H Mart in NYC. The food hall is the standout feature that makes this H Mart so appealing to me. This time, I checked out Dduk Dabang as I've been eyeing their EXTRA LONG toppoki (approx 10'). Cheers to a year of good fortune and health! *Beef Brisket Rose Topokki (M) $22.00 ** The medium size topokki platter came with five long topokki, ramyun noodle, beef briskets, fish cakes, veggies and two deep-fried jabchae dumplings. The chewy bouncy rice cakes and ramyun were smothered in the rosé-coloured gochujang sauce that is the perfect balance of creamy, spicy, and sweet. It was interesting they used glass noodle as dumpling filing. Note that I asked for less spicy but it was still pretty spicy. *Kimchi Fried Rice with Ham $14.99 * I was blown away by how flavorful their kimchi fried rice was!! Hands down the most delicious kimchi fried rice I've had lately. It was perfectly saucy and the runny egg yolk added a rich, creamy texture. It had a great value as the portion size was huge! *Crispy Seaweed Roll $9.99 They were made of glass noodles rolled in seaweed. I found the deep-fried batter was slightly too thick. I wished the size of the rolls was bigger, but they were still enjoyable when I bathed them in the rosé topokki sauce. *Strawberry Ade $4.50, Peach Ade $4.50

    Big portion and tasty food Ordered the butter garlic tteokbokki. Huge portion and rich in flavor. Would recommend sharing this as it is a lot for one person. Shared space in food hall with other vendors next to Hmart. Clean and decent amount of seating.

    King squid topokki

    4/5 mild king Squid topokki $21- really good, wish they'd cut the tteok tho, comes w/: ramen, half egg, the usual cabbage & carrot, & 2 fried dumplings which contain glass noodles mainly, calamari was well seasoned, I wish all restaurants seasoned their calamari like this

    After demolishing corndogs and mochi donuts, my sisters and I waddled into Dduk Dabang. Even though we were already full, we decided to share the kimchi ham onigiri and it was so flavorful it left me speechless. Literally the best thing I ate all day. If food could win an Oscar, this onigiri would've been up there, acceptance speech and all. The menu is packed with shareable dishes that I can't wait to come back for. But honestly, the onigiri was so good, I might just order three and call it a day.

    beef rose topokki

    Stopped by to do some grocery shopping and hadn't checked out the new food court yet. I'm definitely impressed by the dining space and the multitude of vendors! Dduk Dabang has a straightforward menu of rice cake dishes with different sauce options, ramens, and other entrees. There are also sides, that are fairly big portions. We ordered the Rose topokki (rice cakes) that also came with beef, ramen noodles, two fried dumplings, and half a boiled egg. They used the perfect amount of sauce so that the rice cakes and ramen soaked up the rose sauce! By mixing it a bit the beef also got that seasoning but not overwhelmingly so. We also ordered the popcorn chicken with the sweet chili sauce, and the squid + pork bomb rice. The sauce for the squid is delicious! I personally love the Korean dish Ojingeo-bokkeum (spicy stir fried squid), and this one had an excellent sauce, although more pork than squid in the dish I'd say. Food is served in big portions at DDuk Dabang, and good quality. I'd recommend! (Will warn you that they do not offer free water cups; they charge $2.50 for a water bottle, so bring a water bottle if you wanna avoid that)

    Really good food stand! We ordered via the kiosk at the register and our food was ready within 10 minutes. I had the Pork and Squid Bomb which was massive and I ended up getting a to go box to take home whatever I couldn't finish. I would definitely come back again and try their ramen next time.

    The food is pretty good if you like ramyun and topokki. They also have rice bowls. The pork belly ramyun was pretty tasty. The pork belly was flavorful. They pack the soup separately for take-out. The beef brisket topokki was good too. The topokki is very long, so you have to cut it to eat it. It is nice and chewy. The beef has to be soaked in the sauce for some flavor. They separate the beef for take-out. The meat bomb rice is beef with a runny egg on rice. The beef is very flavorful and the egg is good with it. The rice is flavored from the sauce. There was a wait to order. After ordering, the wait for the food to be ready was about 20-30 minutes. They will call your number when it's ready. They have quite a few tables in the food court to eat-in. If dining in, they have reusable bowls and trays that you return back to them after you finish eating. You have to specify for take-out, if you want to have it packed to-go.

    Maram A.

    Very friendly service. Food court ambiance. The food was very tasty and nourishing. The broth is vegetable based and full of flavor. You can get it it mild, medium or spicy. I opted for the hot sauce on the side so I could add it at leisure. Even though this tom yum style soup was from a food court it was satisfying and delicious. This day was particularly cold and the soup warmed me up and helped heal me. Highly recommend

We only had to wait about 15 minutes before getting seated. They definitely get crowded though, so it's best to have a reservation! During "lunch" hours, the place is brightly light. Once "dinner" hours comes around, they set out candles on the tables and dim the lights for a different ambiance. The service was a bit off at first, since we waited a while to get our appetizers. This might have been due to the change in staff between lunch and dinner. The hostess noticed and checked on our appetizers, and got them right out. Afterwards, we had different waiter and he was very friendly and attentive. We did the Pick 3 appetizers: -Kyuri (cucumber): love the mix of flavors with the onions, vinegar and salt. The kyuri has a good bite to them -Kimchi Mushroom: the mushrooms also had a good bite to them. Not too spicy of a kimchi sauce, which I liked as it did bot overpower the mushrooms. -Shishito: I enjoyed the saltiness of the kelp with the char of the shishito. I went for the Tsukemen, which I loved at the Brooklyn location. This was just as good! The noodles had a good bite and the right thickness for the rich broth. I like the lemon on the side to help cut some of the richness. The egg is well marinated and perfectly jammy. The Hassaku Grapefruit Juice is a nice non alcoholic option. Very grapefruity and too sweet. We ended with the Tokyo Banana, which had a deliciously bruleed banana. They wrote Happy Birthday on the plate and had a little candle on the side. We only put it in the reservation, so it was nice of them to do. Overall, a great ramen spot to check out!

I got the Spicy Tan Tan Ramen because I love to have spice in mine, but wish I was able to adjust the spice level. It was definitely super creamy, thick, and filling. The noodles were soft, yet still chewy. For those who were afraid of getting the Spicy Tan but still wanted the spice, they suggested getting Classic Tonkotsu and having chili oil on the side to put in. I really debated which one I liked more!

After reading all the glowing reviews, I had to try it for myself and Kohoku-Ku did not disappoint! Walking in, my first impression was small but cute, simple, and cozy. Since I dined early, it was delightfully peaceful. My server was incredibly warm and friendly, and the food came out impressively fast. I ordered a bowl of their signature Kohoku-Ku Ramen and an order of Takoyaki. The Kohoku-Ku Ramen was packed with flavor, totally unique, and deeply comforting. It completely hit the spot. The Takoyaki was cooked perfectly! A huge plus was that it wasn't buried under a mountain of bonito flakes like at many other places. As the evening went on and the dinner crowd rolled in, the atmosphere picked up a pleasant energy, but the noise level stayed remarkably comfortable that you can actually have a normal conversation without shouting across the table. I am so happy I chose this spot. It was the perfect ending to a long trip to NYC, and I already can't wait to come back for another meal!

The sweet potato tempura was really well done, one of my favorite appetizers not too oily but good with beer. The namesake ramen is loaded! So much tempura with soft shelled crab, shrimp, and even the enoki mushrooms! If you're a spice head you'll love it, because it's on the spicier side of ramens in NYC. If not... well good luck at the end. It's a pretty cozy place, so not a lot of seats. Service was good albeit a bit sparse, think 1 person was waiting every table so it was a bit slow at times. It's not my favorite ramen in NY but given the distance to my hotel it was a solid option for party members who want other stuff besides ramen.

We started with the pork belly appetizer which was recommended and stated on the menu indicating it's their featured dish. It was the biggest disappointment as it was extremely fatty with large chunks of fat, while the lean portions were dry. It didn't look very appetizing. The dumplings were just okay--they had decent flavor but I was hoping for a crispier texture. I ordered the Zebra Ramen. The noodles were cooked perfectly al dente, but the broth was much saltier than I would have preferred. The pat of butter felt unnecessary and made the broth overly rich without adding much depth. The chashu was on the small side and also quite fatty and I assume it's the same as the appetizer but was sliced instead of in large chunks. The marinated egg had good flavor, although the yolk was a little more cooked than I typically like. Another thing is the pork belly appetizer came with an egg. I wish the server would tell us so we didn't have to add it to our ramen with an extra charge. The nori was also completely soggy by the time it reached our table. Overall, the noodles were the only highlight of the meal and the rest were very underwhelming. It's definitely not a place I would recommend.

I ordered the Paitan Ramen Deluxe, and it genuinely lives up to the name. The broth is silky, rich, and comforting without being overly salty which is exactly what a proper paitan should be. The bowl comes loaded: tender shredded chicken, seared chashu, marinated soft-boiled eggs, fresh scallions, bamboo shoots, and a sheet of nori that ties everything together. Every topping tastes intentional, not just filler. The texture balance is what really stands out fatty chashu that melts, shredded chicken with real flavor, and noodles that hold up beautifully in the broth. You can taste the care in the soup base; it has depth, not just heat or salt. If you loved Totto Ramen back in the day, this feels like its modern successor same spirit, new precision. Toribro isn't trying to reinvent ramen which they're just doing it right. And in NYC, that alone makes it worth a visit.
