The Potato Salad here is great as it contains Kewpie mayo and sliced cucumbers topped with a soft boiled egg . The Ban Ban Chicken ramen is light and tasty. The Morgenstern ice cream is also good.
We ordered the ban ban chicken and the roast pork ramen and they were both delicious! Broth is super tasty and the meat was juicy and tender on both. What a perfect dinner on my first night in NY :)
Heaven = signature Takumen chicken , fried egg , garlic cauliflower + broccoli , potato salad , seaweed , avocado salad , yukari cucumber , fried shishito peppers , served on a bed of 17 grains rice .
The decor/vibe is brooklyn hipster , not lic?cute place tho. Not trad types of ramen , got spicy one which was different, kinda gingery and lo mein type noodles ? I think i still like classic ramen .
They had Beppu-style cold ramen when I went, and it was delicious. Perfect for a hot, humid day — but also excited to go when it’s cold and blustery because the regular ramen was great too.
So convenient! Great for getting a quick coffee with the dog. They sell MatchaBar matcha too!
Original wings were incredible, The Miso ramen was not your usual, and quite delicious. Service was really lovely.
Literally everything is good. LOVED the wings , potato salad , kale salad . Sushi rolls all good.
Don’t expect anything traditional. More of a cafe/restaurant vibe than Japanese joint. Ramen recipes are unusual. Surprisingly family friendly . Laptops out on the counter, lol. Food is all right.
Cute place. Ramen is great and I love the quirky dishware and enamel cups.
Quality matcha , impeccable service , and laid-back ambiance. Coffee served at the window, ample seating inside. Noodle bar opening soon.
I felt like I was in Japan. Incredible food and friendly staff !
no veggie ramen but lots of really good vegetarian salads and rolls
Great vibes and excellent soup broth
Set menu is great! All items are listed inclusive of tax and top. Try the Domaine wine (bottles only) :)
Ramen comes with small rice and egg on the side. Great hearty meal for winter!!
Chicken rice bowl was good
Cute place with great ramen ! Fun with kids they have Guru Guru toys if you order the kids meal !
Get the ramen , skip the poke . I liked sitting at the ramen counter in the back.
Takumen Chicken Rice Bowl is by far the best thing on the menu. Love it!
Omakase is awesome. Unique and surprising. Great deal.
Best coffee in LIC by far. Good selection of pastries from Ceci Cela and Dough Donuts ! Also starting to serve delicious ramen for lunch and soon dinner !
I'm a huge fan of the chicken rice bowl at lunch . It is super flavorful but not heavy.
Awesome place, authentic food!!!

Food is creative and tasty but they're chronically understaffed and the service is really slow ????
Everything here is too salty

Don’t sleep on the chicken wings !
One of my favorites.
Ramen is average - the cilantro ramen base was just clear soup . Appetizers were better
The staff is super friendly and the food is amazing. Highly recommend getting a Tofu, something from the special menu and all the rolls you can eat. - Lauryn Goldberg
This place just opened a few weeks ago and SO glad we tried it. Best sushi I’ve had in awhile and the employees were super friendly! Great new addition to the neighborhood - Bonnie Smyth
The beef teriyaki and katsu curry were delicious! Also recommend the pork gyoza and ceviche. - Pedro Gomez
Great views and terrific spot to picnic in the spring and summer! - Tim Huber
It's not unusual to see a few Ninjas here on summer weekends. Cool art music beer... what's not to like? - Bonobos
This place was absolutely stunning. I stayed and watched the sunset and it was equally as beautiful at night. - Marina
