This is now going to be one of my go to spots in this neighborhood (in addition to Nom Nam)! I came here for dinner without a reservation on a Friday night, and I had a great meal and experience. It's not too big inside, but the tables are decently spaced out. There is also bar seating. It's a bit tricky figuring out what to do with your coats since the chairs aren't really meant to hang winter coats on, but there is a clothing rack in the back that someone can help you with. Everything is ordered via your phone using Toast Tab which was convenient since you didn't have to wait for your server. There was also happy hour when we arrived (6:15pm) so we ordered two hand rolls ($5 each). We ordered the chirashi bowl and the shoyu ramen. I thought the portion sizes were good and I loved the texture of the noodles in the ramen as well as my selection of fish. For dessert, we ordered the hojicha pudding which was delicious as well. read more

My friends and I were on our way to Little Alley, a Shanghainese restaurant that's been a Murray Hill mainstay for years when we pivoted to Shuya because we peeped their sign saying they billed themselves an "omakase noodle restaurant." We were guided toward the back, past white marble tables with beautiful mustard colored velvet chairs to the long countertop facing the open kitchen. We scanned QR codes to pull up the menu, and despite no omakase noodle offerings to be found, decided to stay because the menu options they did have sounded too good to pass up. Of course they had classic shio and miso ramens, but they also had a duck tsukumen, a red snapper ramen, a black truffle ramen, and the dish I set my sights on-- the uni mazemen. There were also lots of appetizers and a long list of high end onigiri featuring proteins like scallop lemon shio, A5 wagyu ponzu, and bluefin chutoro on offer. This place was the real deal. Our group shared the tebasaki wings-- so crispy and so flavorful, I could have inhaled a whole plate of these. The salmon, ikura, and apple appetizer that was served in a glass chalice was superb but even better was the bluefin tuna avocado sashimi with wasabi. That one was a winner across the board. And then my uni mazemen, which really stole the show. There was a very generous portion of uni that mixed with the savory sauce and al dente ramen noodles perfectly. This dish was rich, unctuous, and fresh and definitely delivered in value, though it was double the price of most other noodle bowls. Uni is a delicacy. Having just returned from a second trip to Japan I can say this place is really as good as any restaurant I visited in Japan, and it's right here in Murray Hill. These Murray Hill bros are lucky. read more

This place is so lowkey but pretty impressive! The broth is nothing like before and it is so clean and flavorful. I liked the ordering system where we just scan the QR code and can order for the table (can do individually as well!). I wish the chicken was a bit more cooked but the yuzu flavor was so clean in my broth and we especially loved the hojicha pudding. Highly recommend (bigger than you think). Staff are also so friendly (: read more

Beautiful, classy yet laid-back restaurant. Scallop yuzu temaki was a refreshing bite and a good appetizer. The duck tsukemen was amazing! The dipping sauce is quite salty on its own but dipping the bouncy noodles into them made the seasoning level just right. My favorite bites were when I got a bit of yuzu and the little pieces of rendered duck skin in the sauce. It looks like a deceptively small bowl but it's actually quite a lot of noodles so they packaged my leftovers nicely and i got another meal out of it read more

Our meal began with brussels sprouts tempura -- a revelation! Crunchy and salty and nutty. Then came sushi, all presented in unique porcelain holders-- so original. Four of us shared two ginormous bowls of ramen (tuna and duck!) -- more surprises. Dessert was sorbet, a pleasure to the eye. Endless tea helped to wash down all the memorable dishes. read more

Not too many places in the city that specialize in Tsukemen first! Definitely was happy with my visit to Shuya with their duck tsukemen. Noodles were hand made and thick, firm, and chewy. The dipping sauce was not too salty and quite flavorful. My favorite was the duck. I don't normally get duck, but it seemed to be their signature so gave it a try. Duck was rich and juicy. Would definitely come back. Place was nice and intimate. Service was kind. read more

Hidden away in Murray Hill is a mellow ramen joint that serves subtle versions of what we know as ramen. No reservations needed on an early Friday evening. The place was calm, half full, and exuded peace in a city of noise. Maybe don't sit at the bar for ramen if you plan on gossiping with your best friend because the servers and chefs will very likely hear your conversation. Aside from that, our meal was pretty decent and started with happy hour handrolls. Blanking on what type of fish they used (Amberjack?) but it was fresh and good. For entrees, my friend and I got the assari yuzu shio ramen and wagyu & black truffle ramen, respectively. I preferred my wagyu ramen which came with tender pieces of seared and well seasoned wagyu and a flavorful broth that wasn't heavy. The assari yuzu shio ramen was decent, but not my taste preference. The clams that were in the ramen were also tough and unpleasant to eat. Would I recommend this type of ramen as a pre-drinking meal? Probably not. But I can see myself eating here when I need something light but filling. read more

This place is a hidden gem. My friend and I had lunch here. They have a small lunch menu and lunch specials. I like that they have a small menu, that way they can focus on quality. Its japanese owned. The decor is very nice. It's filled with traditional Japanese art. Its green and has a lot of wood elements. My favorite color is green so I love it. This place is so clean also. They have a QR code in which you could either place the order yourself or have the waiter place it. I ordered the duck tsukemen. I usually don't like dipped noodles because its usually bland. It was a hot day and I wanted something cool. However, this was full of flavor. I highly recommend this. My friend ordered the soup ramen and she said it was good too. We also ordered chicken wings which I wasnt a big fan of. It was very crispy but pricey even with lunch special pricing. read more

Came here for dinner a short while back and loved it! The ambience is nice and the service is fast - you have a QR code at your table and you can place your order, add items, and pay your tab all in one go. At the cost of being fast, though, we did feel a little rushed - we had a little less than 2 hours for our table which felt a little tight but maybe it was just a busy Friday night. In terms of food, highly recommend the wings, a hand roll (they seem to have two daily specials to choose from), and the shoyu ramen but there's many options that all look delightful. Also highly recommend the yuzu drink - tart and refreshing - as well as the pudding for dessert. I'll certainly be coming back here in the future! read more

We were a little nervous coming for our 5:30 dinner reservation when we entered the restaurant and found it completely empty. However, by the end of the meal, there were 5 other tables (the entire space only has about 9 tables), and the restaurant was lively. Our ramen was so delicious - I ordered the bowl with pork shoulder that was out of this world. Chewy, savory and with strong umami flavor, I would get the dish over and over again. They made my picky husband's meal perfectly as ordered which's is rare. Would highly recommend this place, especially on a frigid New York night. read more

True Japanese gem. Tried a few that were mentioned in the reviews by others and did not disappoint. Blue fin tuna w avocado 5:5 -- The scallion broke down the acidity of the sauce and blended the pieces of blue fin more flavorfully. Keep in mind this is blue fin tuna, not fatty tuna. Fried chicken 6/5 -- Yes, if there was a 6. Very tasty and well cooked - had a side of not very spicy sauce. Good portion. Flavored with salt, pepper and tangy sweet chili Thai sauce. Although the salt was is a bit too salty for my tongue, but will be excellent w beer/sake or rice. Salmon with Apple yuzu 4/5 -- It was good but the amount of apple yuzu sauce added too much acidity in enhancing the flavor of the raw salmon. Though salmon was fresh, the sauce broke down the salmon a bit too much for me. Served with grounded pepper. Will definitely return to try other dishes for dinner. read more

Shuya is hands down the best ramen I've had in the city, especially if you prefer ramen with a lighter broth with thinner noodles. I got the limited time menu item, red snapper lemon shio ramen. The fish was cooked perfectly, and the lemon in the broth was so light and refreshing. The noodles were cooked just right. The portion size is a little small compared to a standard bowl of ramen, but it was enough for me. The attention to detail in the bowl was amazing, and the handmade ramen bowls were so cute. The staff were lively and the owner was chatting with a customer sitting at the counter. I will be bringing back friends and family next time, maybe to try the dipping ramen next. read more

The service is 10/10! Upon entering in my puffy winter coat, the waiter offered to take and hang it up. This was great since the chairs were rather small and my long coat would drag on the ground if hung on the back. He also bought me cold and hot water and refilled both without me asking a couple times! Food came out quickly as well. I got the shoyu ramen and my friend got yuzu shio. The portion size was filling and not overly so, just the right amount of chewy noodles with a good bite on them and a flavorful clean broth. Most times I get shoyu ramen, the pork is way too fatty for me to enjoy but the pork here was fairly lean which was nice. The yuzu shio broth had a light citrusy taste. Both were perfect for a cold winter day. Prices were reasonable at under $20 a bowl! read more

Had reservations here on a Friday night at 6:30pm, by the time we left every table was filled! The restaurant is intimate and well decorated. To order, you have to use your phone, but service overall was solid. They were great about switching out plates and swapping out courses once it was time for the next item. We never felt rushed throughout the evening which was refreshing. We ordered the fried chicken, yellowtail sashimi, and spicy miso ramen. Out of those three I would say the fried chicken is a 100% must order! The sashimi was good but not a must. We both really liked our spicy miso ramen as well, the noodles were nice and chewy and the broth was steamy! Would definitely revisit. read more

Ate here today on a warm Sunday afternoon by myself. I had brought and ate the fried chicken wings and wagyu ramen that it tasted really good, mouth watering and delicious. The service there was attentive and friendly and thanks to my server Jay for making me feel welcome. The ambiance was felt so good and relaxing. I couldn't agree more about it. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :D read more

I love all of the ramen Shuya makes. I must say my favorite is vegetarian ramen and I'm not even vegetarian. It's that good. A must try dish here is fried chicken. He dips in the special sauce that I can't get enough of. My personal favorite is madai umeboshi appetizer. It's so refreshing. They have a high-tech menu, scan the QR code to order. Staff is friendly, you can sit at the beautiful counter to enjoy nice conversation with Shuya too. Oh, by the way, all of the dishes and ramen bowls are hand made by Shuya. read more

Authentic Japanese restaurant run by friendly Japanese staff. We all enjoyed our ramen and the vibe was beautiful. The decor and even the bowls they brought out the ramens in were so beautiful. I had the vegetable ramen which had a variety of vegetables on top which I've never seen. The broth was a little thick and dense but it did taste good. My group loved their shoyu classic and asari yuzu ramen. Service was also good and friendly. Would highly recommend. read more

Needed something to warm us up on a cold winter day so we ventured into this ramen spot. While it wasn't the best ramen I've ever had, it did what it needed to do. I'm usually a shoyu guy through and through, but today I ventured into the spicy miso (we also got the classic shoyu, don't get me wrong). I really enjoyed the flavoring. Not too spicy (maybe could have been a skosh more?) but did build a nice sweat. I didn't think I would enjoy the minced meat aspect of it but I think it worked here. My only dislike was that I felt like the noodles weren't soft enough; I recognize this may be normal for this type of dish but I was expecting a smoother bite. The shoyu ramen was clean but maybe on the more boring side. Didn't come with a ton of meat. Pricy but probably simply by nature of where it is. The vibe of the place is cute. We sat at the counter and I enjoyed watching our dishes be made in a pretty meticulous fashion. I feel like if it were busier it would've taken quite a while to get food but it was really quiet on the Sunday afternoon we went, which was nice. And the dishware overall was nice: the chopsticks were interesting, spoon chic, water glasses huge, bowls cute. Overall worth the stop in. read more

I live very close to Shuya and was very excited to check it out after it opened. I have now been here several times and am a huge fan. I have tried three of the ramens so far and all were very unique. I like that the broths are not your typical pork-based broths which, while delicious, can be very heavy and unhealthy. The broths here tend to be lighter and cleaner which I have come to appreciate. And the noodles, which are made in-house, are truly the star of the whole show. In addition to the ramen, they also have some temaki sushi (hand rolls) and appetizers like fried chicken. I tried the salmon temaki and fried chicken and both were also delicious. The restaurant itself is very modern and beautifully designed with really unique furniture. Service is always quick and friendly. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to being a regular here! read more

Menu is on QR code on the table. Reservations must be made 2 hours in advance, but the restaurant had plenty of seating when we got there around 2pm on a Sunday. - Fried chicken/tebasaki ($12, 4 pieces) was ok but too salty. The wings were huge. - Tried my friend's duck tsukemen (~$28), and it was pretty good. - Wagyu truffle ramen (~$40) didn't seem worth it. The wagyu was much too fatty and still tasted chewy. Has truffle flavor but overall not a great bowl of ramen. Not sure if I got unlucky and this was the one time the ramen didn't hit the mark, as other reviewers seemed to enjoy it. Bathroom in the back was clean. read more

New ramen spot in Murray Hill that really impresses, even just by the initial aesthetics when first stepping in but also the food itself. We tried the shoyu ramen, duck tsukemen, and a scallop handroll, with extra noodles ordered with both of the ramens. The noodle textures for both the regular ramen and the thicker tsukemen were on point al dente, just how I like it. The broth was also very high quality and remniscent of some of the good spots in Tokyo. The handroll was also pretty decent, flavored with yuzu to cut through the fatty seafood, so very well balanced. Will definitely be back! read more

Heard about this new place from my friend who lives in the area and was surprised at how tasty it was! Started off with their happy hour special tebasaki ($4 for 2, $8 for 4). The batter was light and crunchy. The chicken was super tender and very juicy! I just loved how the meat was well-seasoned with a tasty and strong mirin flavor. I wish I got more, especially with the happy hour deal! The duck tsukemen surprised me! Their dipping broth was soy-sauced based with a touch of herbal flavors and a good orange citrus aroma, which was overall lighter than other traditional tsukemen ramens I've had that typically featured a heavier, fatty soup. The duck pieces were very tender and went really well with the slight sweetness from the orange zest. The ramen noodles were cooked al dente. They also have some fish powder in case you wanted any additional flavor combos. Just because of how nicely the flavors came together I felt like they deserved nothing less than a 5 star. Staff members were really nice and attentive. I like how they asked if I was familiar with tsukemen so they didn't have to explain the concept but readily available to answer questions. The minimalist Japanese decor made it a cute dining spot. I believe they also sell perfumes and lotions in the back. read more

This ramen place is a hidden gem! I randomly stumbled upon it and was impressed by the elegant decor inside. It almost looked like a furniture store! They have a happy hour deal where their fried chicken wings (tebasaki chicken wings) were half priced. It was so delicious, crispy, and juicy that we ordered two servings. Might have been one of the best fried chicken I've had in the city. The ramen is pretty classic and you can't really go wrong. Tldr - come for their chicken wings during happy hour! read more

This spot is great, especially for happy hour. HH sakes are around $12-14 and the fried chicken is a must try. We also tried the duck tsukemen and temaki. The noodles and duck were cook perfectly, and the broth was surprisingly very light which is pretty unusual for tsukemen. It almost tasted healthy. We also tried the scallop temaki and the yellowtail temaki, both were very fresh. Its pretty easy to make a reservation for this spot and the booth seatings are comfy / semi private. The service is also great, you basically order on your phone and the food is delivered to your table pretty fast. The best part is you only pay for what you ordered, so it makes splitting your bill v easy! read more

This is probably one of my favorite ramen shops in the city. I had the vegan ramen with added ajitama and spicy sauce. The noodles had a perfect, chewy texture, and the broth was hearty and rich. I loved that there were a variety of vegetable toppings included: eggplant, tomatoes, cauliflower, squash, lotus root, kabocha, and more! That made for a different experience with each bite. The egg was a nice addition as well. The spicy sauce was an interesting touch as well, with mild heat and some tartness, but totally not necessary as the broth is plenty flavorful on its own. The restaurant itself is also a beautifully designed space, and the staff is so sweet. Definitely pay this one a visit. read more
