TabeTomo was a hidden gem! I couldn't find it at first because the sign is quite small. The atmosphere was relaxed and there was plenty of booths and bar seating available. I ordered the tonkatsu chashu tsukemen with menma and it was so savory. The soft boiled egg was perfect with runny yolk on the inside. The noodles were thick and al dente. The service was spectacular, my waiter was very attentive and friendly! I would definitely recommend!
Heard a lot about this place and their tsukemen and finally got the time to check it out. Got both their tonkotsu tsukemen as well as their tonkotsu jiro ramen. Both were super salty in my opinion. I definitely preferred the tsukemen here though since the jiro ramen noodles were a bit weird and harder than I like. They also have the largest bowl of tsukemen here which is pretty cool. Overall, portion was good and price wasn't bad.
The tonkotsu tsukemen uses vinegar in the broth. That was something I didn't know. The tonkotsu ramen is vinegar-free but not the tsukemen. The food was good otherwise.
Service is great. They even offer to heat up a stone so that if your soup is cold, they can drop the hot stone into your broth to warm everything up! That's crazy service! If I had one complaint is that the ramen and Tsukumen is too much. I did not see one person not get a take out box. We packed our back and each had an additional full meal! Just so much food in this one ramen! They also give you a take out container that separates the broth and noodles so that it doesn't get too soggy. They do use thicker noodles so do be aware of it. It's more like a Lo mein noodle than your typical ramen noodle. And the broth is a bit on the greasier side. Tons of bean sprout to make up for it!
TLDR: It's the ramen that you should love but it feels like something is missing. It's still very good, but it's a step or two from being the best. 4.5 stars, but no enough to round up to 5. Karaage: If we were to put all the karaages that I've had in the world on a scale. This would be in the 75-80th percentile. It's crispy, juicy, and comes at a decent size. However, it struggles a little bit on the flavor department, it either didn't have enough time to marinade or the marinade wasn't strong enough. The chicken could have been better after we punch through the crispy batter. Tonkotsu Chashu Tsukemen: Even without the word jiro in it, you can definitely see the Jiro style inspiration in the noodle and broth. The broth was what you'd expect from tsukemen, thick, rich fish flavors, and is complimented by a thicker noodle that work well together. The chashu by itself is the best I've ever had in any ramen shop. Tonkotsu Chashu Jiro Ramen: It's the ramen for the less adventurous, but these folks will also be well rewarded. The soy sauce based ramen that's layered with back fat is in my opinion better than the tsukemen. The quality and taste of the chashu is maintained, and you don't have to go through the trouble of dipping the cold noodles into the hot broth. Ambiance: A classic ramen shop that seats 30-35 people. It's compact, homey, with moderate noise levels. I'd avoid bringing big groups here. 4 max. Service: It's pretty straightfoward. You order, eat, and pay. I just feel that their point of improvement is how they handle the line after the signup sheet. Our group of 3 wasn't asked to get split up into 2-1 to occupy the already open bar seats. Our group waited an extra 15-20 mins, and I feel that it would've been nice to be offered the chance to split up instead of giving the seats to people who came much later than us. Just a suggestion, not a big deal.
Came for the famous tsukemen and thought it was just decent. The broth was pretty watered down and the overall meal was lacking in flavor. Probably a one-and-done for me.
Tsukemen! I love dipping noodles and the fact that slurping is allowed is chefs kiss. This place is a recommendation from a friend who's been here multiple times and she did tell me the portions are fairly large. I brought my appetite but the bowl of noodles for dipping was endless. I had to wave my imaginary white flag despite everything being full of flavor. But I digress, the service was pretty quick (we did come at a later time on a saturday afternoon -- around 2:30PM). We entered and was seated immediately with water coming shortly to our table. The staff was kind and gave us a few minutes to review the menu and we ended up ordering takoyaki, tonkatsu tsukemen and my dumbass ordered the tonkatsu chashu tsukemen believing my ravenous appetite could finish. The vibes are also pretty chill here albeit a bit loud depending on the crowd. I wouldn't recommend bringing a lot of people at once as I feel like it would disturb the intimate coziness you can get with 1-2 people sharing a meal. If I am in the area, I would definitely revisit.
First time trying Jiro style ramen and I LOVED it! It is definitely on the heavier and richer side, but it was sooo delectable and the chashu is thick and fatty in the best way. Love that you get a mountain of bean sprouts and a whole egg too! Would come again to try the tsukemen & would also recommend sharing the Jiro style because it's definitely great for 2 people / or even 2 meals!
This is one of the most delicious bowls of ramen I've had in NYC. I don't know what it was. The noodles were cooked to perfection, the egg had THAT jammy texture, the broth was oh so drinkable, the pork was perfectly tender. We sat at the bar just looking for a late night bite, and we found something much, much more! Definitely will be stopping by any time we're in the neighborhood.
I can confidently say TabeTomo has my second favorite tsukemen in all of Manhattan. The dipping broth had all the rich, tangy, salty, and umami goodness. The pork was super tender, and the noodles had that perfect chewy bite. Honestly, it was pretty close to a perfect bowl. The appetizers, on the other hand, were pretty forgettable. I'd say skip those and go straight for the ramen.
Came here on a rainy day for some ramen post-run. This was probably one of the first colder days of summer, so everyone else had the same idea. When we arrived at 7:30 pm we had to wait about 5 minutes for a table, but by the time we left at 8:30 pm there seemed to be at least 5 parties waiting. While they are known for tsukemen, I ordered the tonkotsu chashu jiro ramen (mainly for the egg). It came completely filled to the top of the bowl, with heaps of beansprouts on top! While I understand presentation matters, I would have preferred a slightly larger bowl so I could easily mix the ramen up. If you like slightly thicker noodles, you will like this ramen! Personally though, I like thinner noodles so it didn't quite hit the spot. The broth was also just ok for me, a little bit too cloudy. The servers were super friendly though and continually re-filled our water, which I appreciated. They also didn't rush us to eat faster even though there was obviously a wait. Overall if I was in the neighborhood I'd stop by here again, but otherwise might check out some other ramen spots.
This is hands down the best tsukemen spot in NYC. Affordable prices and huge portion sizes. Karaage and corn croquette were solid. Two of us were able to share a bowl of tsukemen and ordered a side of extra noodles cause there was plenty of soup leftover. Not stingy with the chashu pork or beansprouts at all. It's almost shocking how much they give you. Hot stone makes the experience fun as well. Efficient service and nice waitresses. Music was a bit loud at first but they turned it down when we kindly asked. Will be returning. Don't bother with Okiboru. You'll be paying higher prices for a much smaller portion and the quality of flavor is not any better over there.
Best tsukenmen in NYC that I've had so far. Broth is flavorful. Charsu is tender and the bean sprouts are a home run. Service was friendly and superb as well. Will come back again!
The lines here can get long, but finally made it on a Friday evening and was luckily seated right away. But I completely understand why this spot is usually so packed because it's goddamn good! The husband ordered the Tonkotsu Jiro Ramen ($18) and I got the Tonkotsu Tsukemen ($18). For $5 more, you get a soft-boiled egg plus extra chashu, but the basic bowl was more than enough food for us. Or if you really want a challenge, they have the largest tsukemen ever for $65. I really enjoyed both the tsukemen and ramen --depending on what you're feeling. The broth is super flavorful and the noodles are thick and chewy. They also give you plenty of noodles and beansprouts, which is so satisfying. One of my favorite ramen spots in NYC. I love their simplicity with just two signature items. read more

TabeTomo is a ramen spot in the East Village with ramen that lives up to the recommendations I had heard. The tonkotsu ramen is the anchor of the menu, and the broth is the main event. I found it deeply flavored, porky, and built for the kind of meal that actually keeps me full. The chashu was generous and the soft boiled egg was a worthy addition to my order. Portions run large across the board, which makes the value strong relative to what I paid. The tsukemen is another reason I would keep coming back. The noodles arrived separately from the broth, which was served as a concentrated dipping base, and the interaction between the two worked really well. The broth had great texture and the noodles held up through the whole bowl. I also added the karaage chicken as a starter, and it came out crispy with a light batter, pairing well with the heavier main. The space has bar seating and the room is tight, which gave it the kind of energy that a good ramen spot should have. Service was consistently attentive and the pace of the meal moved well. Arriving earlier in the evening or on a weekday helps avoid a wait, and the strip of paper sign in system out front keeps things organized when there is a line. TabeTomo is a solid addition to the East Village ramen landscape. read more
One of my favorite tsukemen spots in the city - they don't take reservations and seat based on everyone being fully present in the party. I've tried their yasai vegetable ramen and tonkotsu chashu tsukemen, which are all reasonably priced and the portions are generous however feel like they specialize more on the latter. Compared to Okiboru House of Tsukemen, the broth here feels very meaty and salty, but nothing copious amounts of water can't fix. Note: Check your bank statements as from the backend, the edited the tip amount I left them and that threw me a bit off as there is kind of a good faith around not editing what the customer has wrote on the line... Would recommend following their Instagram account as they've historically ran good deals in honor of their anniversary: https://www.instagram.com/p/C0T-nhuu-AC/?img_index=1 read more

I've been here a few times now and can confidently say that this is currently one of my favourite restaurants in the city! I first visited in March for a late lunch and was able to be seated and served quickly. The three of us got the Tonkotsu Chashu Tsukemen. There's a fun little comic that comes with the dish that tells you how to eat it (including a tip for requesting a hot stone to re-heat your soup). The ramen was so delicious that we all stopped talking and no one got a photo of the food! It wasn't until my third visit that I remembered to take a photo. The staff are super nice and friendly as well, when one of my friends visited with a cast on his arm our waiter brought us all bottles of Yakult for "a speedy recovery". This place definitely has a fun atmosphere! read more
I would give this a 4.5/5 if Yelp did half star ratings. I came on a Friday night and was quoted a 25 min wait for 2 people and we got to sit at the bar. It's a very cozy, tightly packed spot with great service. They had veggie option for their tskukemen which I was excited to try! I got this, my bf got the regular ramen with chasu, and we also shared the chicken karage and vegetable tempura. Both of the appetizers were perfection. The ramen for both were also delicious, and it was a LOT of food. We still had a lot leftover to take home so I would potentially wait before ordering the extra noodles. Would come again! read more
This place has a minimal menu because they know what they're good at. My go-to is the tsukemen (dipping ramen), which is so flavorful. On my first visit I got the more loaded tsukemen with four chashu slices, plus menma (bamboo shoots). The pork broth is thick with a deep, garlicky flavor. It definitely gets salty, so try not to drink the soup. The pork is tender with melt-in-your-mouth fatty strips, and the soft-boiled egg is perfectly cooked. My favorite part is the thick al dente noodles. Between those and the heavy soup spoon, I feel like I'm weightlifting. This bowl is really filling, so if you have a smaller appetite, you can just divide it into two affordable meals. You can also add a hot stone to your soup about halfway through so it reheats everything. What a fun presentation! I'm always hypnotized by the sizzle when the stone hits the broth. I tried the ramen once, and the broth was much too thick and rich for me, so I've just stuck to the tsukemen going forward. read more

Great tonkatsu broth - rich and deep in flavor! Wish we'd ordered it as a ramen tho because the noodles are different, but that's just my personal preference. The yasai veggie broth was not as good - it just tasted like soy sauce. Was pretty busy in a weekday night with people coming in and out, but did not have to wait long. The servers were quite efficient. Good catchup place over ramen, and would go again if someone asked to go read more
Really authentic tsukemen! On a Friday night around 5:30 pm we were able to be seated right away. The noodles by default come cold and have a really nice chew to them. The dipping broth is very thick and rich and vinegary to cut through the fattiness. It was very filling and the food came out fast. I wanted to take a nap after this meal. Would skip the karaage next time. read more
I really really really want to like this place. The staff is very willing to help and is just so nice. I see them talking to other regulars so knowing that it was really heartbreaking for me to not like this place. I know I said regulars come here but to be honest I would almost never come back again if it's not fixed. However, I think it's a really easy fix to make it legendary. The noodles are absolutely amazing. They're bouncy and clean and al dente. Might be the best noodle for tsukemen I have in America. The egg was cooked really well and the Chashu was pretty nice. But that's about it for what I can say is very good. The soup was absolutely unbalanced. It was way too sour where it was covering most flavors. It might sound like it's trivial since it's just one component I am talking about but it's the most important part for tsukemen. It doesn't just matter if you have good noodles or a perfectly cooked egg if the flavoring is off. I couldn't taste the bone broth that was cooked for hours. I can't taste the umami from the tare. I couldn't even taste freshness of the toppings. But it might just be a put less vinegar kind of solution. There was also almost too much bean sprouts for my liking. Overall really disappointing but hopefully with these critiques, there will be change for me to become a regular too. read more
Tried the tsukemen and tonkatsu jiro ramen at TabeTomo. The noodles were chewy and had a great texture, but tsukemen broth was extremely salty. I couldn't finish it, which was disappointing given the good noodle quality. Also we found a hair in Tonkatsu Jiro ramen... Overall, not something I'd go back for. read more

We were so excited to have tsukumen when visiting NYC as it isn't a dish we are normally able to find in our hometown, however ended up being disappointed. This place was highly rated and recommended, and was quite busy when we arrived with about a half hour wait so we were hopeful for a great experience. We ordered the corn croquettes and the yasai and tonkatsu tsukumen. The croquettes barely had any corn in them and did not taste strongly of corn. The tonkatsu tsukumen was extremely salty and lacked depth of flavor, and seemed essentially the same as packaged ramen broth rather than the slightly thicker broth we expected for tsukumen. The yasai tsukumen broth lacked flavor in general. Portions however were a good size and service was fine. read more

I am IN LOVE with the noodles here!! Super bouncy and thick, and they have a fantastic chew to them. The tsukenmen broth is also delicious-- there's a bit of tang to the broth, but it's also extremely garlicky and full of flavor. Pro tips: You can ask for a hot stone to re-heat the broth while you're eating. Then once you are done with the noodles and want to finish up the broth, you can ask for it to be lightened with a plain broth! The restaurant isn't too big, but there is a bar area for seating and some larger tables throughout the restaurant. We didn't have to wait for a table on Sunday around lunchtime, and service is super friendly. read more
I really Iiked everything about this place. It has a cozy interior with some japandi but not too much. There's a variety of seating & it was busy but we were able to get a table right away. I got the vegetable tsukemen which was delicious. Wish it had some protein like an egg or tofu but it was still great. The noodles were perfect & the broth was rich but delicate. I also love how I could adjust the spice levels with their homemade chili powder. Would definitely go here again! read more
Never have I tried such thick ramen noodles. The noodles were chewy and while they didn't fully absorb the broth -- which might have made them too flavorful -- the noodles were coated with flavor. The broth was the thickest ramen broth I've tried before, basically tsukemen broth. The pile of bean sprouts on top of the Tonkatsu Jiro Ramen amused me, and I appreciated the balance of noodles to vegetable. The portion size was very fair for the price. The Karaage had the traditional karaage flavor. It was crispy, classic. It was a tad difficult flagging someone down at the bar because the staff was busy and I didn't want to rudely call out. However, as soon as I got their attention, they attended to me. On a weekday night with a line of customers to my back, the restaurant was unexpectedly busy. Whenever a customer entered, I felt a chilly gust. Sitting at the bar on a stool in a busy restaurant, of course, wasn't the most comfortable. However, dining alone, I was just in and out for the meal, and comfort wasn't a priority. read more

SERVICE - located on the intersection of Ave A and 10 st in East Village - groups need to put their name on a waitlist but the queue moves quickly - tables good for groups of 4-6 and bar seating available for individuals or parties of 2 - ambiance good for casual or semi casual meal - servers are kind and efficient - restroom available inside MENU - specializes in ramen and tsukemen (dipping noodles) - vegan option available - average price ($17 per bowl) FOOD - vegetarian yasai tsukemen (9/10): creamy soy broth with ramen noodles, nori, scallions, greens, and sautéed mushrooms. What makes these noodles unique is that you dip the noodles and toppings into the broth as you eat it. Hence, the broth is a lot thicker than typical ramen broth. It had a rich garlic flavor which almost felt like an Alfredo sauce. The greens are a nice balance to the rich broth and soft noodles and the mushrooms add both umami flavor and chewy texture. I would have liked some crispy tofu to add yet another depth of texture. The portion is generous for one person but it would make great leftovers. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! Although there was only two vegan options, they were super flavorful and moreish. read more

Seated rather quickly during peak lunch time, we enjoyed our time at Tabetomo. Noticing a lot of people around us were speaking Japanese, as well as the server, was a good sign. We got the tonkotsu jiro ramen and tsukemen, and both finally had the rich flavor I was looking for. A lot of ramen I've had in NY lacks the deep, creamy taste tonkotsu should have. The kind of taste that takes hours to build. Both were garlicky, rich, creamy and very flavorful! Our server, Keisuke, was bubbly and welcoming. It seemed like he was the only one serving, so he was running back and forth but he did a great job. read more
Came for a weekday lunch and this really hit the spot for a cold winter day. I personally liked that there was a heap of transports in the dipping broth. There was a ton of chashu as well and I struggled to finish everything! I liked that this also came with the onsen egg - other popular places have that as an add-on instead. Service was prompt, I sat at the bar and the server was observant, refilling my water and checking in if I needed a hot stone for the broth before I even had to ask. read more
Tabetomo is probably my top choice for tsukemen in NYC (though okiboru is also amazing). They were closed for a while due to a fire but are now open again. Came for lunch on a Sunday 10 mins before opening and glad I did, because there was already a line. My boyfriend and I grabbed counter seats and shared the takoyaki and Tonkatsu chashu tsukemen, which were both perfect. read more

3.5/5 Came here with my boyfriend for dinner on a Saturday night. Restaurant was quite crowded but the line moved pretty fast. We got seated after a 10min wait. I got the tonkotsu tsukemen and my boyfriend got the tonkotsu chashu jiro ramen. Portion of these ramen were big with a lot of toppings. While the flavor of my tsukemen was very good, the broth was quite salty, even as a tsukemen. I asked to get a hot stone to heat up my broth when I was half way done my meal, and unfortunately, I don't think the person that heat up the stone for me heated the stone long enough and it barely made my broth warm. I had to put the toppings on the stone directly in order to made things hot. Overall, my experience here was okay. My tsukemen was just too salty for me to really enjoy it. My boyfriend liked his ramen a lot though and the price was very good for the portion. If I ever come back again, I will probably have the ramen instead of the tsukemen. read more

Went to get Valentine lunch here and we got the Tsukemen & jiro ramen ... it was so delicious!! So flavorful and full of garlic flavor... just love it!!! Added some chili flakes and it was so dam delicious!! The chili flakes the da BOMB!! read more
This place is always busy but it's worth of wait! I never came here before the renovation but this place is very clean. I must say this restaurant's ramen is ultimate comfort food. Period. The soup is delicious but thick and oily, noodles are very thick and filling. I never were able to finish their ramen, always take it to go. The benefit of that is you can make another bowl of ramen the next day by adding more noodles! I love all of the friendly staff, always look forward to seeing them again! read more
Really good! Is it the best Ramen in the city? No. But is it very very good? yes! We came in on a Thursday night, expecting to have to wait a while and did not. We all truly enjoyed our Ramen, however, the octopus appetizer that we got none of us were a fan of. I don't think that this was anything about the dishes itself, I think it was more just not our cup of tea. Service was great and wait staff was attentive. Ambience is exactly what you'd expect from a good Ramen spot, very casual and you can make the evening whatever you want it to be. Overall, I'll definitely come back to Tabetomo and would recommend it to anyone that needs a good Ramen dinner. read more

How big is TSUKEMEN CHALLENGE?
It's 8 portions of the noodles in the regular noodle order and veggies and meat!
Is the vegetarian ramen option also vegan (including the noodles)?
I confirmed with Tomo, the head chef. There dish is composed of entirely celery, onion, mushroom, cabbage, green onion, seaweed and garlic. The dish is 100% vegetarian friendly!
