When you come to Queens, take your eye off a little bit to those traditional Korean Cuisine. So you won't miss the hidden gem like this one. This is a place that always satisfies me with its savory. It is a fusion of Japanese, Korean and American. The MAZESOBA is always al-dente. When you crack the egg yolk and allow the noodles to immerse with it along with the sauce. The favor and texture is unforgettable. My favorite is curry MAZESOBA. They provide you with vinegar on the side for you to adjust the spicy level. After you finish the noodle, put that bowl of rice so you may consume all the wonderful sauce inside the bowl. How can you resist to not coming to here again and again. I also just realized that have a long beer list of Asian draught, and it's 4 bottles for the price of 3. How nice is that? Huh!. The service here is kind of snow. I came here on a quiet Sunday and two waitress seems busying at something which left my wife and I waited at the door. Oh! They have a patio behind the dining hall. So those two waitress were actually working hard back and forth the whole restaurant. I guess hiring more people would made the experience more delightful. Well... I will come back definitely for sure. Calvin read more

For a truly standout Japanese dining experience that goes beyond the ordinary, look no further than Beat Mazesoba. It shines as both an exceptional izakaya and a destination for uniquely crafted ramen. This isn't your standard sushi-and-teriyaki spot. The izakaya menu is full of inventive small plates you'd be hard-pressed to find elsewhere. I can't recommend the yakitori, tuna tacos, Chicken bun, Nike Sobu and chicken wings enough. Each one is a flavorful, expertly prepared start to the meal. But the real showstopper is their signature mazemen. This broth-less ramen is a revelation, tossing perfectly cooked noodles in a rich, savory sauce that clings to every strand. I asked ofit could be made without pork and the obliged makingnit with chicken instead. The depth of flavor is mind-blowing and offers a completely different ramen experience I hadn't encountered before. If you find yourself anywhere near Northern Boulevard in Queens, this place is an absolute must-visit. Prepare for your expectations of Japanese casual dining to be delightfully upended, with excellent service to boot. read more

Have wanted to visit here for their mazesoba, but honestly, the Banh Mi Fries were my favorite! The Curry Mazesoba is hearty and has the right amount of heat - and yes, you'll want to save that bowl of rice to enjoy the remaining sauce and ground pork. read more

My friend introduced me to this place a long time ago and it was my first time trying mazemen noodles. It was a memorable meal, so much that I favorited the place on Google for whenever I'm in the area. I really like their noodle, it's not dry and it's saucy enough. I got the Yuzu Shio ramen last time I went and it's a good sized bowl. Comes w/ thick noodles, spring mix, braised cha siu, poached egg, garlic, onion, scallions, seaweed, and sprinkled with sesame seeds. After finishing the noodles, they give you a side of white rice that you can mix into the remaining sauce in your bowl. There's vinegar that you can add to it too, but it's optional. I would skip on the wings though, it's nothing special and there are better wings elsewhere. I got the sticky sweet sauce, but for some reason it tasted salty. I've gotten the banh mi fries in the past before too and I thought they were just okay. Overall decent place for mazemen, but sides are okay. Lots of seating, it was empty on a Friday afternoon. read more

I came here for dinner with a friend and had high expectations for Beat Mazesoba but the experience fell flat in my opinion. We both ordered the miso ramen and a chicken karaage appetizer. After taking our order and bringing the food to us, we never saw our waitress again and had to flag her down for the check. We were still contemplating whether or not to get drinks too but decided against it since nobody came to check on us. As for the food, the chicken karaage was decent but the broth for the ramen was super salty and made it difficult to enjoy. Perhaps my expectations are too high but I think there's better authentic ramen and Japanese spots in the area with a more pleasant dining experience. read more

Beat Mazesoba - Ramen Near Me - Flushing, New York

Conveniently on Northern Blvd with no trouble finding street parking (metered and residential). It is a large space with nicely spaced out tables and some bar seating. It wasn't too crowded (4 filled tables) on a Saturday evening, though there were a few people coming in for delivery and takeout. They probably get more people during their weekday Happy Hour (3-6 PM). The staff was attentive and friendly. The Crispy Wings (Soy Nanban) was definitely crispy! I can really taste the marinade, which is balanced with the freshness of the lemon. The Beat Mazemen is their signature dish. Be sure to mix well! It is very flavorful, with tender meat, perfect thickness with the noodles, and a delicious marinated jammy egg. They have a container of yuzu vinegar, which lightens the heavier flavors. And once you reach the bottom of the bowl, you can add some rice (comes with the Mazemen in a small bowl) to soak up the remaining sauce, and gobble it up with the spoon! I was too full at this point, so I packed it to go. The Hot Matcha Tea comes in a small mug with the tea bag, so you can leave it in as long as you like. Pretty sure it's the ito en matcha tea bags, which I do enjoy. This helped refresh my palate from the strong flavors. Definitely the spot to checkout for the Mazemen! Seems to be good for groups and drinking! read more

We went here on a Saturday afternoon right as they opened for lunch. We were the only table in the restaurant. Service was friendly. The presentation of the food was very nice. Everything was tasty, however, the meat from the skewers was just slightly over done and the unagi was a bit too salty. I would go back again to try the ramen. read more

I'm always down to trying any new form of Japanese cuisine. Tried the soba forms, ramen forms, noodles where you dip in a sauce before slurping, black garlic broth, noodles to keep dry on a mat. Honestly thought that would be the end of it. But Mazemen is a Japanese noodle dish that was intriguing. The dish itself is ramen but before the soup. This is meant to swirl in everything after adding an oil sauce to it. If there was a form of ugly but delicious eating, this was it. Any ramen enthusiast would be skeptical about trying it brothless. The oil sauce was a nice touch and it balanced all the items nicely. Only at this corner of Flushing can you find this specialty. I've had my fair share of 30 ramen spots in NYC and only hold 3 in my preferred list. This experience was worth the trip. Also enjoy the fun variations to your usual Japanese dishes: like the butter garlic edamame, the grilled corn cheese, and that sake infused red sangria. Nom nom nom to the max. read more

Beat Mazesoba is SO UNDERRATED how come no one raves about this spot on social media??? It is such a hidden gem specialized in mazesoba in Flushing near the Broadway LIRR Station. I am so hyped and keep telling my friends how delicious their food are. THEY DESERVE MORE BUZZ!! ＊Beat Mazemen*** The signature mazemen itself deserves all the stars. It is a brothless hot soba topped with marinated ground pork, thickly cut pork belly, nori, onsen egg, and half ramen egg. I suggest mixing the ramen first and add the vinegar when you are halfway through. They serve a mini bowl of rice on the side for you to clean every drip of the flavorful sauce. ＊Tuna Yukke Bowl The tuna bowl is topped with hearty chunks of raw tuna, cucumber and shredded tamago. Shoyu on the side. It is like a giant poke bowl. ＊Shoyu Ramen Although they are more known for mazesoba, their ramen is also delicious. They have options like miso, shoyu, shio and kimchi ramen. read more

The restaurant was empty when we got there but it filled up by the time we left. This was a sign that this restaurant probably catered to patrons that eat later. We got there for a 7p reservation.

Think I've been here over 10 times now. I love their mazemen. Especially more than Okonomi Yuji's. They'll give you a bowl of rice to scoop up the remaining sauce when you're done with the noodles. Some of their appetizers are lackluster, but their staple, the mazemen, is fantastic. Their fries are battered which are the best kind IMO. read more

My friends and I were in the area, so we decided to have dinner here. It had stellar reviews, plus I bookmarked it, so I had to check it out. We shared a few of the appetizers such as the sake tartar and the garlic butter edamame. Both were subpar. Since I was at beat mazesoba, I had to check out what their signature dish is, so I had that, and it was alright. It tasted and looked like a cross between a yakisoba and ramen without the broth. We asked the waitress how to eat it as there's a process. My friend who got the shio ramen was unimpressed. Overall, nothing wowed me here. read more

Beat Mazesoba - Yuzu YUZU SHIO MAZESOBA - Ramen Near Me - Flushing, New York

It is quite a shock to me seeing all the rave reviews about this new-ish ramen place in the outer Flushing area, because I honestly found the ramen to be disappointing. I got the shio ramen, which had the blandest broth I've ever tasted in all of NYC ramen I've tried. There was no richness or depth or flavor, and while I wasn't looking for a salt bomb, there was barely a hint of salt added to what is essentially a "salt" flavored ramen. The only saving grace for the meal was the karaage, which was crispy and fresh, and had good flavor. The service was also good, and I liked how it was spacious inside with ample seating and nice big TVs (we actually got to watch the World Cup finale here!). I hope that my order of choice was a fluke, and wonder if perhaps I should have gotten their signature maze-men (mixed style, soupless ramen) instead of the broth style ramen. read more

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for sometime now. Now that I have, I wonder why I did. The restaurant was pretty quiet for noon. on Saturday, but the seating was spacious and comfortable. We both wanted to order Donburis, but I thought we should order a maze soba since it's supposed to be what they're known for. My friend ordered a Gyudon Skiyaki, I ordered a Sake Caviar, and we shared a Beat Mazemen. I didn't think the salmon tasted particularly fresh and they were pretty stingy with the salmon roe. (This didn't look anything like the photo taken by the restaurant owner) The mazemen cooked was well cooked and still al dente but whatever sour seasoning (maybe ponzu) was on the bottom of the bowl just didn't seem to pair well for me. I appreciated the soft poached egg, but didn't like the combination of rice and noodle. Overall, everything was ok. Nothing tasted bad, nothing was exceptionally good. read more

I watched a mukbanger visiting Japan eating Mazesoba on YouTube. I wanted to try it out. This place was one of the few places that had Mazesoba and had a good review. I went on a Monday for lunch. It's only metered street parking but I was very lucky to get a spot right out front. We were the only ones there so service was great. I ordered their signature Mazesoba. It came out quickly. It was very good. I was full when I finished my noodles. I tried it with the rice also. It was good but couldn't finish. Here is why I only gave it a 3 instead of a 4. It was too salty for my taste and the egg was too raw. The poached egg, the albumen part was clear when it should have been white. When I know an egg is not organic, I prefer the albumen cooked. Just my preference. read more

I've never had mazesoba before sitting down here, but I'm so glad I've tried it! The restaurant is spacious and has a party room in the back. Servers don't bug you often and allow you to enjoy time with your friends. Prices are also reasonable for the area. Overall a great experience. Although I saw some other very enticing mazesoba options, I got the beat mazemen because it was my first time here. Really enjoyed that delicious unctuousness of the mixed noodle, and the vinegar added a nice bit of acid to balance the fatty pork and egg yolk. I felt like I was having a pretty balanced meal. The banhmi fries were surprising since this isn't a Vietnamese restaurant, but I wasn't disappointed. Solid fry and tasty topping! I'll definitely stop by again next time in the area read more

Beat Mazesoba is a Japanese focused restaurant with some fusion aspects to it, a very interesting combination! Absolutely order the best Mazesoba but just be aware of the ingredients.

Took me a minute to realize that this was the old Sando location pre-pandemic, but what a great addition to the area! It has become one of my go-to's when I want something simple and have about 30-45 min for a sit-down meal. I can understand why this might not be up to par with some people's taste buds. Dry noodles usually bring out stronger flavors since they aren't diluted in soup, and that isn't everyone's schtick. I personally love a good dry noodle bowl. The Curry Mazemen is my favorite when I want something really strong with a lasting (as in all night) taste and it does exactly that. I've also had the other mazemens, the Yuzu Shio, Shoyu, and their signature Beat Mazemen, and they were all great in their own right. Yuzu Shio is nice and light with the citrusy flavor and the Beat Mazemen is probably my second favorite for a less intense flavor than the curry. I've only had their Mazemens and nothing else but they have a nice selection of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks that aren't too easy to find even in Asian markets. The sparkling drinks go really well with the mazemens, IMO. read more

FOOD -ramen broth was on the plainer side, could be more flavorful -the shoyu ramen was tastier than the shio ramen -wish they had tonkatsu ramen on the menu -their mazemen sounds interesting; I'd give it a try next time -bahn mi fries were unique and delish! Generously topped with bahn mi ingredients and had a nice spicy kick -presentation of hanger steak over rice could be better. They ask how you want the steak done, which is a nice plus. Butter sautéed mushroom didn't taste special SERVICE -the staff was really nice. One of them even helped me pick my jacket up after noticing that it was on the floor AESTHETICS -modern and moody with lime wash paint -big open space PARKING -easy to find free parking spots in the nearby residential area read more

After the pandemic. I was feening for some noods and remembered BEAT MAZESOBA! Not sure if the quality has lost a bit of their touch..? We've ordered the Spicy Tonkatsu recommended by the waitress. Order of their wings with their soy Nanho? flavored which basically tasted like soy garlic and the chicken and pork belly skewers. Oh and the curry karage don. Wanted to say first off. The wait staff was extremely nice and the food came at a timely matter. Let's get in on the food! The Spicy Tonkatsu wasn't bad. Had a bit of a kick to it and flavors were there. Nothing too crazy of the norm but overall satisfied. The Wings flavors were on point the chicken was nearly there... They just needed another minute in the fryer. Bones was a bit on the al dente side. We ended up not finishing the plate. The chicken skewers was a bit on the dryer side and the pork belly was good but a bit chewy. and lastly the Curry Chicken Karage Don was not what I expected. I understand that this place is a fusion of Asian influence of sorts. But, to be frank it was basically Taiwanese pop corn chicken with a curry mixture on the side. This was actually my most disappointed dish of em all. If I were to come back (Which I will) I would stick to their noods and some of their appetizers. AND PLEASE DO A DOUBLE FRY ON THE WINGS! TO ENSURE DONENESS! read more

I had my last dinner here on my recent NY trip. A friend of ours recommended this place and we decided to give it a try. We came early so the place was pretty empty when we arrived. The restaurant has a very eccentric decor. From the wallpaper in the back bar to the light fixtures, it gives a very modern look. I had no idea what was good so our friend ordered a few of her favorite items on the menu. We started with a nice bottle of cold sake, which is the spot. The chick wing has nice flavors. The meat on the pork rib was nice and off-the-bone soft. My favorite dish was the Blistered Shishito Pepper. Tempura pepper was lightly fried with beer-battered and not spicy at all. I loved the little sea salt they sprinkled on top of the peppers. The orange zest gave the flavor profile to another level. We really enjoyed our meal here. The staff was nice and friendly. The food came out quickly and it was delicious. It will definitely be one of my go-to spots the next time I visit NY. read more

A staple for whenever it's my turn to suggest a restaurant for dinner that's not typical and that is extremely delicious! I've done take out and dine in multiple times and find myself super satisfied each time. My favorite mazemen is the curry one! I like the beat one as well but find myself craving the curry flavor which the vinegar adds sucha nice tang to. Appetizers are always a hit, in particular the banh mi fries and karaage. I've only gotten the ramen and soba once each - I prefer the soba. There is usually only one or two people working in the front, but they do their best to make you feel welcome and attended to. read more

Beat Mazesoba - Banhmi Fries - Ramen Near Me - Flushing, New York

The flavors explode in your mouth. You cannot go wrong with their signature dish - Beat Mazesoba.

Came here for a casual weekend lunch and it was pretty enjoyable. Beat Mazesoba is known for their dry ramen it seems, which sounded interesting at first, but then if you really think about it, soup is highlight of the ramen. For that reason, I would prefer ramen with roup; but for novelty, this was a interesting concept. The ramen itself tasted pretty good, but not as good as if there was soup. Although they do have other options with soup so there are a variety of options. Also got a few side dishes they had and all tasted pretty good! I really enjoyed their hojicha latte, would definitely get it again. Service was standard, nice servers and no issues with efficiency. Overall would recommend this place for a casual dining experience. read more

Alas! Another day that I feel fulfilled with carb. I think the mazemen is not as salty as it was a year ago, and the portion is slightly less. I could never finish a whole bowl before, so now I feel very happy about being able to eat the whole thing. But because it's not as salty, the vinegar is kind of meaningless now. It used to wash away the heaviness effectively. The pork belly is even softer than before. Yum yum. Yuzu shio is even lighter than beat mazemen. They offer a discounted price of the beat mazemen on Mondays, so that would be a good time to come. read more
