Description
Conceived by friends to bring Tokyo flavors to New York, the menu includes options like classic non-pork bowls and a vegan curry ramen with a hot broth that leaves you wanting more, though portion sizes can run small. The kitchen also turns out popular karaage appetizers alongside classic Japanese sodas. With only a few dining tables and counter chairs, the small space stays cozy and relatively low-stimulation. Meals arrive quickly, though the prompt service means the pace can occasionally feel rushed.
