The Best Ramen In NYC
Where to go when you want something better than a block of dried noodles and a powder-filled foil packet.
Rockmeisha
Skip your spa day, and instead get a pork broth facial at Rockmeisha, a lively East Village ramen shop that specializes in Hakata-style soup.
Kaedama Ramen
Settle down in Terminal C's food court for a steaming bowl of ramen and a platter of sushi at Kaedama Ramen.
Kohoku-Ku Ramen
Kohoku-Ku ramen is a tiny restaurant in Hell's Kitchen that makes some of the richest, thickest ramen broth we've ever had.
Okiboru House of Tsukemen
Expect a line at this noodle shop on the LES. You can't go wrong with either the tsukemen or the tontori ramen, which are the only two things on the menu.
Ichiran
This popular ramen chain from Japan is known for its "privacy booths." The Midtown location is a great place to get some alone time with a bowl of noodles.
Shinka Ramen & Sake Bar
Shinka, tucked away inside a Chinatown hotel, is a great place to drink, watch sports, and eat a unique bowl of ramen with brisket and bone marrow.
E.A.K. Ramen
Stop by E.A.K. Ramen in the West Village for hard-to-find iekei-style ramen and crispy gyoza on a cast iron plate.
Karazishi Botan
Karazishi Botan in Cobble Hill specializes in inventive ramen dishes created by a former Ippudo ramen master.
Ramen Ishida
You’ll have to sit quite literally shoulder to shoulder to eat at this teeny LES ramen spot, but their shōyu and miso ramen are totally worth it.
Marufuku Ramen
The East Village outpost of this popular San Francisco ramen shop is one of your better options for a quick bowl of noodles.
Ivan Ramen
Ivan Ramen is an extremely popular ramen spot that started in Japan, and has become a classic Lower East Side restaurant.
Rai Rai Ken
There’s plenty of ramen in the East Village these days, and no shortage of opinions on where to go. We happen to believe that Rai Rai Ken sits near the top of the heap, mostly because that shoyu ramen is so good, but also because it’s inexpensive and simple.
Totto Ramen
Five years after it opened, the original location of Totto Ramen is still packed pretty much all of the time. That's because it's still awesome.
Totto Ramen East
This city needs more ramen restaurants like it needs more privileged people, but we're getting more of both anyway. At least we're getting the right kind of ramen...
Jin Ramen
Though not the very best in town, Harlem's Jin Ramen still provides great ramen and pork buns for the Columbia community and neighborhood locals.
