Perfect For:Casual Weeknight DinnerEating At The Bar

Written byJoe Brantlinger

If an episode of Master of None ever took place in Ballston (budget cuts?), Aziz Ansari would eat at Yona. This ramen spot is perfect for a date or dinner with a friend - the space is small (around 50 seats), it looks like a warehouse mixed with a Swedish cabin, and there’s usually some ’90s hip-hop jams playing. Get the miso porky ramen and JFK (japanese fried chicken), and wash it all down with some sake.
