At ICHIRAN we don’t diversify our menu, but concentrate only on Tonkotsu Ramen. Ramen is offered in a wide range of types, from those based on soy sauce, salt, or miso paste, as well as varying broths like seafood-based broths or meat-based broths. The safety and satisfaction of our customers is our priority. That is why we only use the highest-in-quality products for the creation of our ramen. Our professionals are masters of the complicated techniques involved in ramen making, and they always pursue a higher level of exquisiteness for our customers. Our mission is a quest for new ideas, a thorough search for new ways of bringing more delight to the palate of our customers.

Highly recommend to ramen lovers looking for a cozy and chill atmosphere to enjoy a decently sized bowl of ramen! You can get a refill for just a few dollars, but make sure to save some of the soup for that. Ramen firmness and broth spiciness level can be customized while ordering. Staff usually provide a clothing basket to stow away jackets underneath the table to keep aromas from tainting clothing. Def recommend bringing friends or even a date to this place during midday as there is not much of a wait and the atmosphere is more intimate!

This is hands down one of the best ramens I have had. Yes it’s popular but FOR A REASON. It is beyond worth it. The broth is 10/10, the chashu is the best I’ve had in NYC.

Delicious ramen but a little overpriced. You only get one choice of broth which is pork, but can customize the spice level and your toppings. The ramen was good but for the price I was hoping the portion size would be a bit bigger. Sitting at the private booths was also a really nice and unique experience, I highly recommend.

Ichiran is hands down one of the best ramen spots I’ve ever been to and easily my #1. The ramen is on another level—rich, perfectly balanced, and packed with deep, authentic flavors that burst in your mouth with every bite. The chashu is incredibly tender and flavorful, literally melting in your mouth and taking the ramen to the next level. From the broth to the noodles, everything is done to perfection. The employees are respectful, attentive, and quick whenever you need something. This place is an absolute must-try for any ramen lover.

Went to Ichiran Brooklyn
Honestly, it’s exactly what you expect from Ichiran — super consistent, same flavor every time, and still hits the spot.
We sat at a regular table this time, not the booth, so it felt a bit more chill and less “exam mode” lol.
The broth was good, noodles were on point, and I like how you can customize everything.
BUT the toppings are still kinda tiny
The pork, the green onions, everything feels like “sample size.”
A little pricey, but I still end up coming back.

Best Tonkotsu ramen Ive had in Brooklyn. Single booth dining is great for grabbing a bite after work. Love the way you can specify and customize your Ramen. Definitely makes me want to come back to develop the prefect Tonkotsu.

We went here after a nice sweeeem.
Here’s a weeb comment. I went to an ichiran in Kyoto many years ago. I was hungry and they were offering it for breakfast.
When I heard that ichiran was coming to Brooklyn of all places, I was excited, but never had a chance.
This time was different. We went and it was wonderful. I like that it’s 1 type of ramen and it’s delicious. 2 if you’re vegetarian.
It’s very tasty and I recommend getting kaedama to really fill up as the noodles given can be slurped down in no time, and you’d have plenty of broth.
Really great place. Highly recco and apparently kids eat free. Ughhh… kids. They always eat free. Like what the heck. Why not borderline geezers like me?
I didn’t take pics of the food because we were hungry and photos were not my priority.
Anyways… EAT IT!!!

Overview: Decent, but overpriced, make a reservation
Broth was rich and flavorful, didn’t blow my socks off but it was pretty good. I ordered everything as recommended except for the red chili sauce which I bumped up to medium. I would go much higher next time, it had no spice.
I ordered the soft boiled egg for my ramen and it came before the ramen & shell-on which was disappointing. It was a $3 up charge and didn’t peel well.
The noodles I ordered as recommended but they quickly became doughy. For the price of the ramen it should come with more topping options without such a significant up charge.
Matcha pudding was fine but for $9 I would never get again

This ramen is really yummy — honestly some of the best I’ve had in NYC. The concept of the restaurant is super cool: individual booths, minimal interaction with servers, and no tipping culture, which I appreciate.
That said, there’s only one thing on the menu, and I wish there were a bit more variety. Also, I was a little appalled at paying $28 for ramen and still having to peel my own egg.
I’ll probably be back because the ramen is solid, but I’d love to see this place expand its offerings and refine a few details.

The ramen is pretty good and the solo booths are fun, but I find this spot is very overpriced for what it is. $26 if you want ramen and basic toppings. Ramen is my favorite food and I’ve tried many of the NYC staples. This was my least favorite and I’ll explain why.
They make you peel the egg and my egg was served cold and overcooked. The pork (chashu) is plain and not braised. The broth and noodles are very good. I was missing the bamboo though and it’s not an option to add on.
The service was weird. I got a 4 spice level based on their recommendation. I found it not spicy so I asked for more and was told I would be charged extra if I wanted over 10. I wanted a 6 anyways, but for $26 you should be able to choose any spice level…
Once I got my extra pepper, I was told I have to add it right away and they would take the extra since it is a secret recipe and they can’t leave it with me. I felt pressured to add it quickly instead of tasting intermittently to my liking. I get it’s their special recipe, but maybe don’t ruin the eating experience by hovering to take the extra pepper back?
I’m glad I tried this famous spot, but I probably won’t be back
