Excellent! This place makes really good, unpretentious ramen. I really like the al dente consistency of the noodles. At some ramen spots, the broth is just too rich and heavy for me. I eat half the bowl, but then feel like I’ve hit my limit for fat and salt. Menkoi Sato is much more balanced. Their ramen is hearty without being overwhelming. The owner is a nice chap. I see that they closed temporarily. I hope they reopen soon.

My second time here – good ramen, glad to hear they were able to reopen after a brief closure.

Super offputting to see a rising sun flag, however. Honestly so surprised to see this in the wild here. Not sure if this is new or if I missed it last time, but you should definitely remove that.

I visited this place after seeing it featured on the New York couple Instagram page (@뉴욕부부), but unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the hype at all.

I ordered chicken karaage and was asked if I wanted mayonnaise. I said yes, assuming it was included, but later realized I was charged $2 for a small portion without it being clearly explained. That felt misleading.

On top of that, a can of Coke was $4 — I honestly have never seen a place charge $4 for a canned soda. The pricing overall felt excessive for the quality and portion size.

The service also felt very disorganized. They repeatedly came back to confirm whether the order was correct, which made me uneasy. At one point, food was brought to the wrong table and then taken back. I honestly felt uncomfortable, worrying whether something that had already gone to another table might be served again.

The restaurant was extremely loud and chaotic, and overall the experience did not match what was portrayed on social media. This visit honestly made me rethink how much I trust Instagram recommendations. Definitely not worth it, and I won’t be returning

I stopped by this ramen spot around 3pm and had a great experience. The service was friendly and quick, and the ramen was genuinely very good—rich flavor, fresh ingredients, and super satisfying. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu. Highly recommend if you’re craving quality ramen!

One of the worst ramens I’ve had. Even shio was so thick, salty and heavy. Ingredients tasked stale. The scallions on top were so pungent you knew they were from last week. I got a single dry piece of chasu that tasted like it was turning sour.

Food aside, the wait for our ramen was 30 minutes, and tipping was defaulted up to 30%. Makes me laugh. For $20+, there are so many better options in nyc. Go somewhere else.

Food here is good, but I was very surprised and disappointed to see a rising sun flag prominently displayed on their counter. Not quite sure what the intent is here, but this is effectively like having a swastika proudly on display in your restaurant? We were uncomfortable and distracted as soon as we noticed it.

Fun atmosphere with lots of benches around the store. Might be hard to grab a spot when it’s busy. Prices are very reasonable and orders come out pretty fast. Ramen was decent — the ingredients didn’t work as well as I expected, but the broth was fine and the portion sizes are very large and filling.

Second time coming here over the last 2 years of visiting. First time was better, this time was mid. The shoyu (basic) ramen was waaaaaay too salty, although tasty and yummy. The curry chicken was too spicy and also quite salty! There was a lot of bean sprouts mixed into the noodles, so it feels like you get less noodles versus the other bowls.

They do have a policy that it is one order per person at least. So order appetizers if you can’t finish one bowl. They are generous portions. Service amazing and friendly.

This is a small cozy ramen place with 4-5 benches in the seating area. They serve delicious ramen bowls and each category tastes different and unique. The noodles are also very tasty and definitely recommended on a cold winter night. This is a walk in or a take out type of restaurant.
