Vegetable Ram ok/good
Jennifer T.

3.5 stars which is decent. We ordered two vegetable ramens and one chicken ramen. The vegetable ramen was in a much smaller bowl than the chicken ramen. The chicken ramen was a lot of broth and not much else to it. Overall they were decent/good. The broths taste weren't great, but decent. I had far better Ramen at other places. The service was very attentive.

Hinomaru Ramen, Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen
Moeka S.

This couldn't have been their best day!! I know they've served better and better broth in the past. I wanted to have a nice bowl of ramen and since I remembered them being good I revisited. We sat down but the menu never came, no water, or anything. They weren't fully booked either so it felt like we were just forgotten. We ended up looking up the menu and when they could come over we just ordered what we wanted and asked for glasses of water. Then the broth felt almost diluted:/ like something was missing from both the ramen we ordered. I'm sure this wasn't their representative work!!! I hope they get better and I can come back again.

Squid Geso Karaage
Scotty L.

I tried the HinoMaru ramen, fried squid, chicken skin, and chicken karaage. Likes: broth was rich but not overly salty. Broth was hot. Noodles were different from other ramen shops. I would get the squid karaage again. Chicken skin was decent. Chicken karaage was overcooked. Friendly servers. Clean tables. Dislikes: Service was slow despite being 1 of 3 total parties in the restaurant. There were more workers than diners when I was there. I understand why the food might take slightly longer especially if it's being made to order but it would take some time to get drinks or to get the check. Overall the ramen was one of the better ramen shops I've ever been to. I normally don't enjoy Japanese style ramen as much, but I would return here again. 3 appetizers + 3 ramen + 2 beers came to roughly $150 with tax and tip.

This was my first time ever trying ramen, and it definitely won't be my last! Everything was absolutely delicious. The broth was rich and full of flavor, and the ribs were cooked perfectly tender and seasoned just right. You can really tell care went into every part of the meal. The restaurant itself is super cute and has a great vibe, which made the experience even better. And the service? Top tier. Our waitress was incredible she gave great recommendations, stayed attentive without hovering, and made sure we had everything we needed the entire time. Overall, such a great first ramen experience. I'll definitely be back!

OMG so happy to have stopped by and shame on me for waiting so damn long. This is definitely one of the best Ramen joint in NY and very reasonably priced. Broth is super flavorful and noodle is perfect firmness. A must on your Ramen bucket list

Crispy Rice Sushi
Dessa R.

Great visit and service this evening. No wait for 2 around 8:30 and friendly greeting and efficient service. Tried the spicy fried Korean chicken, and my only thought was that it was super hot and would've loved if it was a little bit more crunch. The crispy rice sushi was a nice appetizer as well. I love the tonkotsu spicy ramen with honey glazed ribs as it has the wavy noodles (my FAVE!), and rib meat fell off the bone, perfect noodle texture! Thanks Hinomaru team!

Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen
Lisa Z.

Walked in on a Friday night before 7pm and was able to get seated right away. The dinner crowd definitely starts to pile in shortly after 7. We ordered a ramen dish each and it was pleasantly tasty with a reasonable portion amount. Unfortunately we did have to wait quite a while for our ramen, as one of our dishes came out pretty quickly but they had accidentally gave another table our other other so we had to wait 20 additional minutes almost for the second bowl to come out. Seating area is pretty tightly packed and the decor inside is nice and fits the vibe of the restaurant well.

HinoMaru Ramen - underwhelming
Ashley B.

I think I got my hopes up for this place because of these reviews, now I'm convinced that most people here have not been to a lot of ramen spots in general. I got the hinomaru special - and although it's not bad, I found that it was way more hyped than what it actually was. I didn't feel like there was anything that was standout about it than the next random ramen place nearby. The flavors were ok, but not as much depth as I would expect for all these ramen reviews they've received. My boyfriend got the shoyu ramen and I thought it had more flavor than the hinomaru special. They also come with poached eggs and not regular soft boiled. I got an extra poached egg since mine didn't have it, and it's served on a separate spoon to add to your ramen but it was cold and tasted like nothing after I ate it - not worth the extra $3 and definitely nowhere as good as soft boiled imo. We came on a regular week day so it wasn't busy at all and we were seated immediately. However, I think they were either understaffed or just serve in batches and not at the same time. My boyfriend and I got our ramens 8 minutes apart and I did not come there to eat ramen by myself. So I waited until he got his because that's what it means to go out to eat with someone so mine wasn't hot and fresh. Just seems weird to have our main food come out at completely different times and kind of ruins the dining experience. Otherwise, the appetizer (okonomiyaki) was really good!!! And the service, albeit slow, was also exceptional! Quality of food and weird separation of serving times if your party orders something different than you just overall makes it an ok experience at best. I'm glad to try this, but the hype is overstated.

Lychee mojito
Anh Y.

This is where I go when I want a hot, comforting bowl of ramen in the neighborhood. This time, went on a Monday after 7:30 PM so it wasn't crowded. Was seated right away. Started with the chashu pork nikuman, which came with 1 bun. The pork was tender, the bun was fluffy, and I appreciated that the sauce was evenly spread so you got some with each bite. The shoyu (Tokyo style) ramen is made with a chicken broth, and came with tender chashu pork, a poached egg, bamboo shoots (menma), yuchoi greens, scallion, and garlic chips. The broth was nice and hot, very flavorful, and not too salty. The noodles had a nice chew to them. The lychee mojito I ordered was so good. It was sweet, with a little bit of tartness from the lime, and some brightness from the mint. The server came by often to refill my water, check on how I liked the food, and if I needed anything else. This was another very satisfying experience at HimoMaru.

Great food. When you come in it feels Japanese. The ambiance is very nice and service was good. The yuzu margarita was definitely a favorite.

Veggie ramen
Audrey S.

Maybe my hopes were a little too high after I read many high praises for this ramen, but I found it to be a little underwhelming. It wasn't bad, but the vegetarian ramen felt a little unimaginative. The broth had little flavor and there wasn't any creativity to the toppings. It was nice to get some vegetables, but the ginger was the only thing adding flavor and they put too much of it. I wanted to order something else and sub tofu for meat, but they won't do any substitutions, even for dietary restrictions. While the food disappointed, I liked the rest of the experience. The space is nice and felt lively but not hectic. There was plenty of room inside and it didn't feel claustrophobic like some nyc restaurants. The service was just the right level of attentive and polite. If they could up their vegetarian ramen game, it would be a winner.

Ceviche Ramen
Taylor W.

Hinomaru has always been a family favorite! I got to try their ceviche ramen, which is their summer special. It's topped with lots of sashimi pieces! It was so refreshing to have especially while dining in their outdoor seating. They also have solid ramen options. I didn't get any at this visit but I love their shoyu ramens. Their ramen is perfect during the winter or on a cold day!

Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen
Teev R.

Pleasantly surprised! As someone who frequents Ramen spots, I have high expectations and this spot hit the mark with their rich broths. Parking is tough to find though (it is NY!) Setting: Wooden interior with tons of two and four-tops. Outdoor seating is also available, but can get hot in the summer. Service: Great! Our server was incredibly attentive and consistently checked on us and refilled our water quickly. Food: Really flavorful! I have gotten both the lunch special ($24 includes app, main, and drink) and a la carte options from here. For ramen and appetizers, the price is a bit more than other spots in Queens so it loses a point for overall value.

The particular weekend we went (July 5), the air conditioning unit was broken so we were melting inside. Wooden benches and stools with no backs were not comfortable. Service (4/5): There was only one server bustling back and forth. She did a great job in getting orders, refilling waters, and closing out for just her. There were times we had to flag her down. Spicy chicken wings (5/5): Perfect exterior skin crunch with not too much breading. The sauce was light and not overpowering. Deluxe (5/5) and TanTan (5/5) were both very flavorful. Slightly preferred the Tan Tan more because it had a kick and more spice. I requested some extra chili oil for the Deluxe to give it a little more flavor. However, I felt like the broth was too salty. Pork slices were thin was flavored through with not too much fat to the pieces, so it wasn't tender or rich. I love the bounce and chew of the noodles. Definitely one of the better ramen shops in the neighborhood.

However, its tiny dining room often means long wait times and limited seating. The signature chicken paitan broth is slow-cooked for 8 hours to create a rich, creamy, and flavorful milky soup. Locals highly recommend the Kuro ramen (featuring rich black garlic oil) and the Deluxe ramen. They also serve a highly rated Veggie Miso. Appetizers shine here. The Garlic Edamame and Takoyaki are fan favorites, and the Chicken Karaage is a must-try. Authentic and cozy. The space is incredibly small with limited seating and does not offer outdoor dining. Expect long wait times for a table during peak dinner and weekend hours. This food place that offers delicious savory broth paired with springy, bouncy noodles is definitely worth a try.

I was craving carbonara and it was after midnight. I almost gave up hope thinking nothing would be…read moreopen and my cravings wouldn't go unfulfilled. But at last, as I searched on DoorDash I stumbled upon this glorious restaurant they call Izakaya Fuku. I was drawn to the adorable names for their sushi roll dishes like "Strawberry Fields" and their Italian Japanese fusion pasta dishes, "Creamy Mentaiko Bacon Pasta" with creamy mayonnaise, spicy cod roe and bacon like are you kidding me? It's a bummer I wasn't more hunger or that I didn't have more bucks in my wallet because I wanted all these dishes. And the Chirashi Don, god it looks so beautiful the way that it's arranged in the photos online. I finally decided on the carbonara. And I was drawn to the fact that it was udon based. Now, I've just been living in hawaii these past years so that Japanese twist on an Italian dish that I just love oh so much really brought me back to missing the islands and the Asian spins they had on cuisines. Now my food may have not come in a jiffy but for after midnight cravings I'd say it was well worth the wait. And my oh my the portion was huge!!!! I slurped that big boy up. It was SOOO delicious and savory. I love comfort food and this had me in carbonara heaven. I loved indulging into every single last bite. By the looks of the picture the restaurant looks lovely, I'd love to stop there and try it in person. Thank you. Thank you! My belly and my heart are very much satisfied.

UPDATED (for 2 additional visits) - It is our fav ramen spot in LIC/Astoria!…read moreAmbiance (5/5): The establishment has a very sleek interior with an open, welcoming layout. Although close to other tables, when I dined there was no one nearby. There is also bar seating in the front. Service (5/5): I came on a weekend night at 7:30p and there was no wait. Tonkotsu ramen (5/5): Pro move: ask for the thicker noodles (pic is original dish of thin noodles) This was a superb bowl of ramen! The broth is very umami with tons of depth, flavors, and creaminess. Noodles are the straight kind which has a little less bounce than I usually like but still plenty portioned to enjoy. The bowl comes with a lovely half soft boiled egg. The two large pieces of pork char sui were great--tender and flavorful. Reasonably priced bowl at $18 with some additional toppings like wood ear mushrooms, bamboo, green onions, and narutomaki. Definitely coming back here again to try their other bowls!! Pork belly buns (5/5): If you are already getting the pork belly in the ramen, this can be skipped since it's the same meat. However, the sauce was good and the meat is tender. Crab croquette (4/5): It tasted fresh and consistency of a normal croquette-- crunchy on the outside with a softness from potato on the inside. The light panko seasoning was a nice touch. It also comes with a small side of salad. Wagyu (5/5) - thin pieces of wagyu were very fresh and flavorful. The broth feels very soothing and lighter as it was but not as rich as the tonkotsu. I loved the pickled cucumber and cabbage. The thick noodles are perfectly bouncy and chewy. Shoyu Duck (4/5) - Light broth as I did not taste the undertones of duck in the broth.

Cuisine: 8 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 6 Overall: 7 Ramen shops are everywhere in NYC nowadays. However, most of them are average at best. Looking for a quick bite last week in LIC right in the heart of court square, I found this little restaurant. Walking in, it's quite spacious and nicely decorated. Two of us were seated promptly and given menu and water immediately. After a quick look through, we settled on an appetizer to share and two ramen bowls. The Popcorn Shrimp was unfortunately not made very well. Many of the pieces of shrimps were stuck to each other's batter. It didn't taste horrible, just not preferable. On the other hand, the ramens were made extremely well. The Chicken Paitan Ramen has a savory but clean chicken broth that would be perfect when feeling under the weather. The chicken was super tender and the egg was delightfully yolky, while the chewy noodles were a great match for the dish. With that said, my favorite item of the evening had to be the Toriniku Ramen. It had a rich and deep pork flavor that completely elevates my senses to another level. The pork jowl was thick cut and very delicious. Last but not least, the straight firm thin noodles were the perfect accompaniment. I don't look for ramen as often as I use to any more due to the climbing cost of a bowl of these noodles, this place included. However, if I'm in the mood, and don't feel like trekking to Manhattan, then I may just very well end up here.
