Oh my goodness. The spicy garlic ramen is top notch! If that ramen was a boy I would marry it because I'm in love with it and don"t mind waking up to it every morning

Marc Schneeberger

Amazing gyozas and very decent ramen !!! Good alternative when totto is packed. It is just next door in the east location.

Michael Muse

Great ramen ! Been a few times. They make you specify everything, here's what you should get: plain Tonkotsu (skip the Kumo garlic variant), wavy noodles , medium firmness, rich broth , + a seasoned egg

Tom

Delicious pork-broth ramen , good alternative to Totto's chicken base ramen on the ground floor. Half off appetizers during happy hours . They accept all major credit cards unlike Totto.

Go Find Alice

Love the ramen ! You can pick how solid you like your noodles and if you like then curly or straight. Black garlic is bomb! Order the fried chicken too

Leo Sumulong

If you like variety, this place is for you. Unlike most ramen places , you can choose between wavy and straight noodles with varying levels of firmness. Lots of different toppings & broth choices too.

Vlad

Try the fish based broth ramen . It’s so hard to find these, but this place has it ????

Ruby Anaya

The Spicy Garlic was 10x more garlic than spicy - flavorful but a bit too intense. The edamame with garlic butter were some of the best edamame I've had. Oh also garlic .

Noah Weiss

The spicy garlic tonkotsu ramen with a poached egg and firm wavy noodles is a top 3 ramen in NYC. Rivals Ippudo in broth tastiness and noodles .

Marc

TimeOut #9 Ramen : "The best way to taste it is in the ma-yu ramen , There’s also a less sweat-inducing option—chewy chilled noodles , w/a side of soba for dipping—and add-ons like mini pork gyoza "

Emiliano Viscarra

As everyone mention the first things you need to try are: Spicy Garlic Ramen , Garlic Edamame Butter and Fried Chicken . They also have Sapporo on draft which is the perfect combination.

Dina

Best ramen in NYC. A sister restaurant (same menu) of the always mobbed Totto Ramen on the West side but MUCH easier to get into. Black garlic ramen is amazing and best vegetarian ramen I've tried.

Shiri Lara

You can choose your noodle type and tendency. Go with wavy! I got firm which is medium and it was perfect.

Dina

Arguably ramen in NYC, both pork (black garlic is awesome) and surprisingly great veggie ramen . Sister restaurant of Totto Ramen on West side (same menu) but MUCH easier to get in. Great for lunch .

Serious Eats

Midtown East's best source for ramen . Order the pork toro and the Hakata Kuro ramen , which comes with pureed charred garlic swirled in.

Russell Hirschorn

Top notch spicy pork buns and spicy garlic and miso ramen . Ponzu sauce for gyoza was sour...not good. Happy hour specials are killer.

Laura

Best vegetarian friendly ramen ! The vegetables are divine

Chris Pollone

The red dragon spicy ramen is wonderful. Sinus problems? Get it. I added an egg and had wavy medium noodles . Also liked the fried chicken appetizer .

Abi Panicker

Red Dragon is the way to go, best balance of spice and flavor. Other ramen were either bland or to salty. Don't let the three chiles next to the name on the menu scare you, it's not that spicy .

What's Good Here

For a spicy kick order the Hakata Spicy Black Ramen - pork broth w/ original black spicy sauce . scallion , kikurage mushroom , cabbage , char siu pork

JT Andrade

The summer lunch special will save you a few dollars on the majority of popular ramen dishes. Spicy garlic ramen was very good. The pork was more well done than I usually prefer.

Eaters Heaven

Definitely the black garlic ramen . Broth is delicious and I normally don't drink the broth, because ramen broth is usually too salty. Go after midnight on Friday and get free extra noodle !

Time Out New York

At Hide-Chan, ramen chef Kawahara focuses on tonkotsu (pork ) broth—a luscious, meaty soup , more cloudy than creamy. The best way to taste it is in the ma-yu ramen . Read more

The Corcoran Group

Richly flavored broth is the highlight of this Ramen joint. Go for the Hakata Tonkotsu with very firm noodles and very rich (more pork fat ) – don’t be scared by the fleck of pork fat you’ll see.

Foxxy B

Great, salty bowl of spicy garlic ramen w/ wavy firm noodles . Simple, fast, no-fuss experience. Will have to try the famous Totto Ramen (which is literally next door) next.

Nicola Sebastian

Pork buns are almost or as good as the ones in Ippudo. Garlic ramen is one of the best I've ever tasted. Go for the curly noodles !

Bin Yang

Don't walk into Totto Ramen by accident, this one's upstairs. They're good at tonkotsu broths so skip the rest. Get some mayu (black garlic oil ) and crispy gyozas with it too.

Katharine P.

Spicy Ramen with medium firm noodles really hit the spot. The spicy pork bun was better than regular pork bun . Happy Hour from 4:30pm-6:30pm. Half off drinks and apps. $2 Sapporo draft !

Sunaina

The ramen here is one of the best I've had. It's spicy nd had am the right flavors..can't wait to come back to try some more. The broth is light and not fatty.

Susan S.

Try the miso ramen but ask for it with spicy sauce on the side to add more flavor. I really liked the firm straight noodles but you can pick any firmness and noodle type!

Maya Shanmugam

The spicy garlic ramen is great, no need to worry about garlic breath! Whatever you get, Make sure to choose the wavy noodles for a traditional ramen experience.

What's Good Here

Try this Japanese version of a slider for a side: Hide-chan Rice Burger - premium Japanese beef , nira, scallions , BBQ sauce , sesame , between rice buns .

Dana Tedesco

Tonkatsu Miso Ramen w/ two free toppings during lunch ! But be careful of the crispy fried chipped garlic . I killed everyone on the plane ride home, but it was soooo worth it to keep adding to my soup !

Annie Alfstad

One of the best kept secrets of NY. Sake , banging pork buns , amazing ramen (haven't had one yet I don't like), and Sapporo on draft ! Just no ramen take out :0(

Maria Granados

Do not think twice and definitely come eat here. The spicy garlic Ramen is everything. And do not miss out on the pork basil dumplings they are phenomenal with the vinegar dip .

Allyson Chew

Very good ramen and quick service . Small but popular place. I will definitely go back to try other items on their menu though- very yummy food with good flavors.

Adrian L

My favorite ramen joint in NYC. Kuro ramen is delicious, as is the hakata spicy ramen . They now have cheese gyoza served with tomato sauce , interesting combo!

Rita L

Spicy black ramen with medium wavy noodles and rich broth ! A bit salty but pretty good! wavy noodles are thicker than the skinny kind they usually put in tonkotsu ramen !

Marie La Rue

Delicious, heartwarming ramen bowls in Midtown. Great for single dining, sit at the bar and enjoy.

Sarah F. Parsons

Love the Spicy Black Ramen , but if yoi don't like Spicy you can take the simple Ramen , also witht he black mushrooms and garlic oil ! Also the dumplings are wondeerful

Sparkie

Thu.–Fri. until 4 a.m.; Sat.–Mon. until 11:30 p.m. Order: Zen-Nose Deluxe ramen , with extra char-siu pork , egg , pollack roe , spinach , bamboo shoots , bean sprouts , onions , scallions , and nori seaweed .

Mary

Delicious ramen with a steakhouse-like twist: choose your noodle type and firmness level. Black garlic ramen with medium thin noodles is highly recommended!

Tim L.

Get the Hakata Kuro ramen . It used to be a special at Ippudo, but it's so much better here. Also, go after midnight for free kaedama!

Martin Lewison

Delicious spicy garlic with bamboo shoots and egg , wavy noodles firm!

Yejee Arin Choi

Spicy garlic ramen (with poached egg ) is highly recommended - it does have a kick to it so don't drink the soup too quickly! Happy hour is also amazing here :)

Deanna Ross

Vegan friendly ! They use vegetable broth ! Just add what you like!!!

Valentino Perez

Great place if you like options on how your Ramen is made. Wonderful environment, if you are new to Ramen good place to start.

Terence Chan

Great service and tasty ramen . I got the spicy garlic with firm wavy noodles as well as a spicy pork bun and fried chicken . 4/5

Alissa Simmons

No crowd. Great prices. BEST RAMEN BROTH IN NYC. All ramen lovers must go here.

David D

Get the Hakata Tonkatsu Ramen (right), or if you like a good kick, the Hakata Spicy Ramen (left).
