Crisp outside, soft inside. I wish they offered a cheese version or even a plain option for variety. Ramen was a respectable bowl. Tasty, comforting, and exactly what you order when you want ramen without chasing the best in the city. It did its job, just not sending me to the moon and back. The place is small and it gets busy, so expect a little squeeze at times. Service was friendly and our server checked in enough to keep things moving without hovering. Solid 4 out of 5.

To start, I ordered their matcha lemonade, which was super refreshing with a well-balanced matcha flavor. We also had the cucumbers with onion dressing, and they were delicious -- the dressing paired perfectly with the crisp cucumbers. The fingerling potatoes were buttery and flavorful, and we also ordered the curry wings, which were very good. The curry flavor was subtle and paired really well with the parmesan cheese, giving them a savory depth without being overpowering. For my main, I had their steak ramen, which was a collaboration they were featuring at the time, and it's probably one of the best bowls of ramen I've ever had. The broth was incredibly flavorful, the steak was cooked perfectly, the egg was beautifully seasoned, and the shoestring potatoes added such a great crunch. I'm honestly going to be dreaming about that ramen. I'd highly recommend making a reservation. This place is absolutely worth it.

My husband had the kaishin don, I had the Ozakaya donburi set and our girls shared the shoyu tonkatsu ramen. The fish was so incredibly fresh here and the rice was seasoned perfectly. My donburi set also came with dashi broth that the waitress later brought over to pour on top of the leftover rice in my bowl to be enjoyed at the end of the meal. The broth and rice combination was really comforting and satisfying. This dish was something I wanted to try in Japan but did not get a chance to experience when there, so I was excited to try it at Ozakaya. I was really pleasantly surprised by the ramen here as well. Although the pork could have been better/more tender, the broth was rich and seasoned so well and not too salty like other places. Last but not least, the service here was excellent and efficient. I would definitely come back here the next time I visit Brooklyn as there were many dishes on the menu I wanted to try!

This place is super popular and I get why. It was packed but the service was insanely quick and efficient, which I appreciated. We shared the chirashi (9/10) and a spicy tuna roll (7/10) and it was honestly more than enough food for both of us. The sashimi is chef's choice so you're getting whatever's freshest that day. Overall, the quality was excellent. A couple of pieces were a little on the flavorless side, but nothing that ruined the experience. I'd still give it a solid 9/10 and would definitely come back if I'm in the area again.

Since it was a ramen kind of day, my partner ordered Kyushu Tonkatsu shio, served with pork chashu, bamboo shoots, wakame, half-marinated egg, nori, and corn in a pork broth. My eyes caught the "couple ramen" of black and white Tonkatsu shio and black garlic Tonkatsu served with pork chashu and half-marinated egg. The matcha pudding dessert was perfect after a ramen meal. We enjoyed our visit here, with delicious portion ramen together with great customer service, and we will come back.

The staff was extremely friendly and attentive, not just greeting you when you come in but throughout the entire dining experience. My group split the black dumplings which I really liked the sauce, I had the Point Blank ramen -- it was delicious and smokey. The pork broth was savoury but not so oily as the horse radish cut through well for a really refreshing taste. My sister had the Iron Men IV which was also so good. I think I was most blown away by the creativity in the dishes and how good they were. The whole menu felt innovative and intentional. I really want to come back again and again to work my way through the whole menu lol. Last thing just wanna shout out the staff again! they were awesome!

ICHIRAN is famous for the individual booths where Japanese people in Japan can go for a quick meal and slurp their noodles as loud as they want. Once you sit at the booth the server will open the window from their side and you hand them the tickets. You eat in private and if you need anything else from the server, you just ring the buzzer. Otherwise you just finish and leave. Easy, hassle free meal. The soup here is so flavorful and rich. Best ramen soup in the city if you ask me.

The base price of the Ramen is $20 (protein is not included in the price), then they charge for egg and 1 slice of pork ($5 each), so you could really be paying an upwards of $30-$35...God forbid I want 2 slices of pork!! This is a HUGE turn off for me, especially considering the competition. For example if you go to Tonchin, the pork and egg are included in the price ($23) and the ramen is amazing!!...and it's a Michelin star restaurant on top of that. I prefer more bang for my buck, so I don't think I'd order from here again.

(1 star) Absolutely disgusting. Do NOT order from here…read more I ordered edamame and chicken wings for delivery, and what arrived was straight-up inedible. The edamame was shriveled, grayish-green, and looked like it had been sitting in the fridge for four days -- mushy, slimy, and somehow both overcooked and stale at the same time. One bite and I spit it out. The chicken wings were even worse. Cold, rubbery, with that unmistakable "straight-from-the-freezer-burn-bag" taste and texture. You know that gritty, icy feeling you get when something's been frozen and refrozen too many times? Yeah, that. I took one bite and threw the rest in the trash. I was scared I'd get sick. I get that everyone's trying to make a living, but if this is the kind of food you're putting out, owning a restaurant just isn't for you. Please, for the love of public health, consider a career change before someone ends up in the ER. I'll never order from here again, and I'm warning everyone I know to stay far away. Zero stars if I could. Hard pass. Didn't take a picture. Everything is in the trash.

The menu is small, but dedicated to quality, and you will make your choice quite quickly. All the fish was fresh, large pieces, and really really clean tasting. The soup was delightful and paired wonderfully and everything was presented quite nicely. The grilled fish was also tasty and really tender.
