    Black Brack Garlic Ramen

    Only ordered Uber eats and not eat in restaurant. Ordered black garlic ramen and not great. Not enough broth and hardly tasted the black garlic mostly salty broth. Sushi was good though for what we ordered. It tasted fresh and full of sushi meats.

    This place is so so good. I had the Tuna Dumpling and Pepper Tuna Tataki as appetizers. Both were pretty tasty. The Pepper Tuna Tataki was sheared perfectly. The edges were perfectly peppered. The Tuna Dumpling had a perfectly soft tuna wrapper with a good amount of lobster and shrimp. The sex on the beach roll was very good as well. The shrimp tempura had a pretty thick piece of shrimp. The ends were kind of hard to eat for me. I loved all the speciality rolls except for the Angry Dragon Roll. It kept falling apart but also I think it is cause there isn't a lot of rice on the roll. Personally I do prefer less rice on my rolls.

    Great little restaurant for Ramen and Sushi rolls. They also offer hand rolls and sashimi. The Ramen portion is too small for the price, however delicious. The sushi are great for the price, definitely recommend the special rolls as they have better taste and flavor. The special rolls come in 4 big pieces, easily divided in half for 8 regular pieces. Bonito restaurante para ramen y sushi. También ofrecen rollos de mano y sashimi. La porción de ramen es demasiado pequeña para el precio, por deliciosa que sea. El sushi es excelente por el precio, definitivamente recomiendo los rollos especiales ya que tienen mejor sabor. Los rollos especiales vienen en 4 piezas grandes, que se dividen fácilmente por la mitad para obtener 8 piezas regulares.

    There's really not much good to say. The Beef yakisoba noodles were easily the worst dish I've ever ordered from a take out spot. I can't even describe how inedible they were. Honestly, it looked like left over food from other peoples dishes that they just served to us in our take out order. Neither me nor my boyfriend could eat them. The beef was grey and fatty. The sushi kept falling apart and was very average. When all is said and done, I'll never spend another dollar here. There's way too many better sushi spots in the area.

    Wonderful place! The inside is beautiful and a really nice ambiance. Service was great and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend and can't wait to return! The sushi and teas were amazing.

I…read morewould've reviewed it sooner, but every time the food arrives, we're so excited to dig in that we forget to take pictures--in this case, the phone definitely does not eat first! This is easily one of the best ramen spots I've ever tried. They offer a great variety of broths, ranging from clear to creamy and spicy. My personal favorite is the Spicy Miso Ramen; it's the perfect balance of richness and heat, accompanied by incredibly tender pieces of slow-braised pork belly. I also love that you can fully customize your bowl with different toppings to make it exactly to your taste. You also cannot skip their appetizers. This time we ordered the Rock Shrimp Tempura, which was fried to perfection without overcooking the shrimp, and the sauces were the perfect addition. You also need to try their Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, the Bao Buns, and my absolute favorite: the Ika Geso Karaage, which comes with the most delicious mayo dipping sauce. The cozy ambiance perfectly complements the food, and the service is always attentive. It's a BYOB spot, which is a nice touch, and they'll provide glasses upon request. Since they don't take reservations, make sure to add yourself to the Yelp waitlist so you don't have to wait too long to try this amazing food!

First was the Salmon Ramen (which was another customer's order) and then it was the Chicken Odon (which my cousin did not order yet the WOMAN SERVER forced her to try to see if she wanted it if she liked it) which made the rest of the interactions with the staff awkward. Because my cousin did not like the ODON and wanted the CHICKEN FRIED RICE she ordered. Adding more to the tension and awkwardness was the WOMAN SERVER and CHUNKY MAN SERVER kept circling our table watching us eat. (I paid it no mind while my cousin was peeping every move) EVEN ADDING MORE to the BS we get the bill and pay leaving a TIP for the YOUNG MAN SERVER (who needs to get a spine and tell the other staff what's right from what's wrong cause you knew what we ordered to the T as mentioned before). After leaving and getting into my car we see the WOMAN SERVER come out in search of us. She runs to my car and asks for the receipt (mind you they have SQUARE so they have a copy in their system of the payment) u give her the receipt and she asked NO TIP like I didn't give the YOUNG MAN a cash tip. This was one of the most awkward and disgusting displays of customer service I've seen in a while and it SUCKS that it is a PLACE that I DID LOVE FOR ITS RAMEN yet YOU WILL NEVER GET MY HARD EARNED MONEY or MY PROMOTION EVER AGAIN P.S.

The ramen is just as rich, flavorful, and comforting as the original. We came with high expectations, and both the tonkotsu and spicy miso ramen were as satisfying as ever. That creamy pork broth? Still unbeatable. The spice and depth of the miso? Well balanced. And yes, we definitely got the takoyaki again (some habits shouldn't be broken). One major plus: street parking is way easier here compared to the Bayard St location. No circling the block endlessly or needing to pay metered parking -- we found free parking right out front, which made the whole experience feel way more relaxed. Any downsides? The Easton spot is smaller, with fewer tables and a tighter layout. It feels more like a ramen bar than a sit-down social restaurant, which is fine for a quick meal or a casual date night, but maybe not ideal for bigger groups or a cozier intimate feel. That said, the staff was helpful and attentive, and the ramen quality hasn't skipped a beat. If you're craving Nagomi-level ramen but want a quicker stop with less parking stress, Ramen Nagomi Easton is a fantastic option -- same soul, slightly different setting.

    Ramen on George St!…read more My husband and I were in the neighborhood and its was really cold. I wanted soup and when passing by Rakkii Ramen, I knew that's what we will have for dinner. Upon entering, we were greeted by friendly staff and sat down looking at the menu. Besides ramen, they also have rice dishes as well. They also have bubbles teas. I ordered tonkatsu ramen and it was delicious. The hot creamy pork both just hits it home for me. I'd definitely come back here again next time to try other dishes.

Like many people today, I'm mindful of what I spend dining out, so I expect good value for the price. Since I live in South Jersey, I brought the food home to eat later. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The ramen included four slices of chashu (pork belly), but three of those slices were entirely fat with no meat. I understand that pork belly naturally contains fat--that's part of what makes it flavorful--but receiving pieces that were essentially all fat made the dish unpleasant and felt like poor quality control. I called the restaurant to share my concern, but the response was underwhelming. I was simply told the manager would be informed. When I asked if there was anything further that could be done, I received no real resolution--just a basic explanation of what pork belly is. As someone who understands the product, that explanation missed the point. The issue wasn't what chashu is--it was the quality of what was served. Everything else about the meal was fine, which is why I'm giving two stars instead of one. However, customer service matters just as much as the food. A simple effort to address the issue or offer a solution would have made a big difference. As a former business owner, I've always believed customer satisfaction should be a top priority. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here, and for that reason, I won't be returning.

We didn't enjoy it but were happy we tried it. I thought my ramen was fine, not my favorite but no complaints. My friend didn't like her ramen so she asked for hot sauce, sriracha, and soy sauce to spice it up and the server was confused at first but was fine bringing it over once we clarified what we wanted. We also didn't love the karaage chicken. All in all, we enjoyed our visit there and appreciated trying something new. They give cute little cat shaped chopstick holders. We will not likely be back because it wasn't to our liking but think it is just personal taste not that the place was bad so we do recommend trying it for yourself. A lot of other people were there and seem to all enjoy their meals and said they come there often.

Upon entertaining on a weekend evening, there were a few tables with patrons but not too busy. The restaurant did seem a bit understaffed with only one person taking orders / bringing food out, making it difficult to flag down this one person to successfully take our order and ask for anything additional throughout the night. Gyudon: for the price, we were really surprised at how small of a portion this was. It was not only in a small bowl, but the meat was layered on top perfectly deceiving you to think that there was more than there actually was. The majority of this dish was rice, and with limited sauce at that. As displayed on the menu images it was to be served with a runny egg, but unfortunately we got a fully cooked one (disappointing, as we were looking for something to mix with the rice!) Sushi: We got a 3 rolls and they were just alright. They were pretty small in size, with less rice than I'm used to (which is something I do like - I would rather more fish than rice!) With us getting spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and spicy scallop - they all kind of tasted the same, so I wish the fish wasn't as heavily masked with spicy mayo. Ramen: I got the black garlic ramen, and it wasn't the best, but wasn't the worst. I've purchased fresh ramen packages in the supermarket before and it tasted just like that, so it made me disappointed knowing I could achieve the same at home. The soup itself was extremely rich and fatty, and the charsiu had no flavor whatsoever leaving much to be desired. The main reason I'm rating this so low is upon having my last bites of sushi, I could tell something was off. I don't recall which specifically I had but I made a statement that it was extremely fishy and off putting. Fast forward later that night, I was hunched over the toilet vomiting with stomach pain - and I can deduct that the sushi was the culprit. I might consider trying Ottoyee again due to the great deals they have listed on food delivery apps, but the sushi quality (quite literally) put a bad taste in my mouth.
