I visited The Garden for their ramen, which hits every time! Their portions are very generous. It's also one of the few ramen spots in the area that is open before 5 pm. I got the Tan Tan Ramen, which was delicious and flavorful with a bit of spice but not too much! It also came with a lot of toppings such as ground meat, bamboo shoots, ginger, and mushrooms! It's a very filling dish. I also ordered the Kakuni Bun, which is a soft bun with pork belly, lettuce, and mayo. One of my personal faves!! It's quiet during lunchtime, so the service was quick and attentive. read more

I visited this restaurant because I was in the mood for Ramen. I placed an order for takeout. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen and it was good. It included pork, egg, ginger, scallions, mushrooms and some other fixings. I really enjoyed the Ramen. The restaurant is nice inside. The service was also very quick. Next time I will dine in and try other options on the menu. read more

It was a rainy night, we ordered in. Everything came so perfectly packaged. Broth was still hot, yummy and just delicious. The ramen was perfect! If get again, maybe next time I'll pop in person! This is one of the yummiest ramens I've had. I feel like the delivery took a bit longer than I wild have wanted. Only complaint. read more

Cute spot located at the end of Cortelyou with a nice backyard and chill vibes. The staff were very attentive and friendly. We each got a ramen (shio, tonkotsu and spicy miso), the yellow tail jalapeño app, and the portions are good. The app isn't too remarkable, fish was fresh but portions are a little low for the price and I didn't care too much for the topping.They ramen is flavored well, although just a bit too salty. Each bowl comes with a few toppings that I appreciate I didn't have to add on as extra, such as and egg, bamboo shoots and woodear mushroom. Overall, it's a solid spot in the neighborhood for ramen, especially when the weathers nice and you can use that outdoor. read more

Great ambiance, nice looking back yard. But when it comes to the food it self, falls on its face , very bland I had the pork katsu, the pork wasn't season at all even with the sauce there was no flavor at all, very expensive for what you get. I also had stomach issues when I got home. read more

First time trying was really in the mood for ramen. I got the tan tan ramen which was spectacular! The broth is miso based and has a slight spice to it but it wasn't too spicy for me ( and I usually can't tolerate spicy broths). I chose that ramen because it came with ground pork, which I never tried in ramen before and it was the best choice! The noodles were cooked just right. The staff was super efficient and checked on us a lot. Completed our request for extra napkins and whatever we needed. It is a nice casual dining night out. read more

My husband and I stopped here last night for dinner but I really wish we had kept walking to Kumo... music was pretty awful: Maroon 5, Train, Counting Crows. Plastic flowers in the garden did not add to the ambience. Service was a little slow and uneven, especially with drinks. Gyoza and ramen were both tasty enough, but caused intestinal distress to both of us the next day. Will not be returning. read more

I went here for dinner with a couple friends. The food and portion was great. I ordered the karage chicken, spicy miso ramen, and a yuzu margarita. The karage chicken had great flavor (add a squeeze of lemon that comes with it). The spicy miso ramen was very rich and dense with minced pork, scallion, bamboo shoots, bean sprout, mushroom, and egg. The yuzu margarita had a good balance of smokiness and spicyness. I highly recommend this place. The service was a bit slow today but most likely due to holiday season. read more

I can't stand a f**king "hurry up and buy" experience. This place, like many East Asian joints, excels on efficiency, but fails completely on personality. The food is average to great, and the restaurant is comfortable enough, but the staff is always cold and robotic. It never seems they're interested in making you a regular. I can guarantee you they know very few of their customers names. Someone mentioned they don't get shown the love they deserve. Uuuumm.... You give what you get!!! read more

Updating my review to rave about the Garden's impressive af sushi too! Hands down the best quality ramen and sushi in the area and I don't think it's getting enough love that it deserves. I recently shared a Sushi Omakase set ($105) with my bf and every bite was so fresh and delicious. Even the tuna! Which can tend to be too fake and rubbery at most places - not here. Each piece was melt-in-your-mouth good. Very reasonable price point as well; we were so full by the end of our meal and we are fairly big eaters. Less than a month later we returned for a ramen brunch and this time, each of our ramens came with a complimentary app/side - what a deal! (perhaps a lunch special) We got a plate of the karaage and a plate of gyoza to share and they did not skimp. So worth it at $17 per person. We also added a couple orders of sushi for the perfect, well-rounded meal. Having visited 3x in 2 months, the Garden has become one of our go-tos. read more

Never disappoints. We love the poke bowls and the ramen is solid. I believe the chef previously worked at Nobu. We've had take out and dined in, and both are equally consistent and delicious. read more

Grabbed take out from this place tonight - disappointing. I ordered a house salad and they didn't add anything other than lettuce and avocado. Had to add my own dressing and it was rather expensive. My partner is sick and the portion or spicy miso ramen was very small and he said the noodles were hard. I would not recommend getting take out here, over $50 for not much food. read more

- cute service - I enjoyed the eel avocado roll - the thin pork bun appetizer tastes better as opposed to the thick fatty one ask the server (s)he will tell you which is which - I liked the beef entree the egg mixes well I thought they were kinda stingy with the meat it could have been saucier imo - I liked the salmon teriyaki it was cooked very well the sear of the salmon tastes delicious with the teriyaki I felt they were kinda stingy with the meat - yuzu margarita was a nice twist on margarita - I loved the acoustic pop hits soundtrack - fast turnover was out of there in less than an hour with app, entree, and drink ordered - cool ambiance, nice for a a date night without the to-do of a date night read more

This place has a relaxing setting and good service. The food is exceptionally amazing. This has become one of my favorite places in the area to go eat now. If you're looking for a low key place for a night out with your partner or a place to take a date this is a good place to go. read more

Had high expectations for this place since it had so many good reviews. I found it to be just average in terms of the sushi rolls we ordered, not bad but also not great. The gyozas we got as an appetizer were also definitely from a frozen pack rather than homemade. To be fair, I just got back from Japan and had blind blowing Japanese food so this place definitely didn't meet those standards. The best dish we got was the ramen. read more

I think we're addicted to this place! We have ordered from here and the food is consistently fresh! But then we went IN PERSON and it somehow was 50x better?? Of course the ambiance is adorable and the people are so kind but the food actually tastes so good in person!!! Highly recommend! read more

The service was amazing. The interior design and atmosphere were very clean and nice. The overall vibe of the place was welcoming and decently lowkey, it is a perfect place to walk in on an afternoon- and I'm sure for a cozy and scenic dinner. There are only two Japanese restaurants on Courtelyou, and with how much I like the other establishment I knew I wanted to try The Garden. As its style and menu is vastly different than the other one, and clearly has its personal touch. My lower rating came from the food alone. Price ranges from 16-20 as per standard Japanese restaurants. Whilst the Garden focus on its ramen roster, the fish quality was still fresh and decently meaty. However, 5 dollars for a singular sushi(nigiri) dish, and 10 dollars for 6 TINY sushi rolls was difficult to stomach. Once again, the quality of the fish is good! But the portion size comparative with the price tag is a little steep. The ramen itself is just alright. The broth lacks tare and depth, which gives you the idea of flavour but quite one dimensional. The portion for ramens generous, and definitely fill you with warm broth at the end of the meal. I find the ramen itself way too generic and lacking to be at the helm of this restaurant, as I believe they serve other rice dish that also looked very promising. Overall, it is a surprise how well received this restaurant is. Which, given the area and the demographics, it definitely checks out. Being on the more gentrified side of the street definitely demands more in prices to begin with, and I will not fault a restaurant for doing what it has to do. But this first time, the food was not impressive, and gave me the feeling that I had metaphorically ate some idea of food that won't stick with me for long. I would like to return again in the future to explore the other side of the menu, as I do believe that there are more I just haven't seen yet. It is at the end of the day very beautiful with good services. I'm sure there's a reason why people like it as much as they do. read more

I was given the recommendation to check out The Garden at Ditmas in the beautiful area of Ditmas Park, Brooklyn, NY and it did NOT disappoint! I ordered the Chicken Katsu Don to-go and it was a very large portion size and so flavorful! It came with a miso soup as well, all for $17 and some change + tax and tip. I ended up saving half for leftovers and they tasted just as delicious, if not more delicious, with all the juices soaked in the day after. The employee who helped me was very friendly as well. I will pass on this recommendation and hope you can get there to enjoy this delicious food! read more

Came for dinner on a whim since it was a chilly, windy night in Brooklyn. Ramen was the desired cure for our winter evening blues and The Garden didn't disappoint. My partner and I both enjoyed our soup, as the broth was flavorful and ramen cooked just right. I'm not a connoisseur by any means but it was good food! They have a full bar so you can enjoy wine, sake or specialty cocktails if your heart so desires. I will happily support this neighborhood gem again. read more

We were craving ramen and figured we'd try out this new spot out. We got there at 5pm and we were the first party. It was nice and cozy in the restaurant. service was great, we asked for juice for my son and they quickly brought it out. We ordered takoyaki for the appetizer and it was delicious We got the salmon teriyaki for my son and it was pretty good, lots of veggies and also rice. The rice seemed over cooked. I got the beef and chicken broth with chicken it was pretty decent. The beef was pretty strong. Would have liked it to be equally balanced, I'll probably try the veggie broth next time. My husband got the pork ramen and he seemed to enjoy it. I also ordered two glasses of Prosecco, price was a little steep at $18 per glass. K was shocked, may be the price nowadays? read more

Super excited to have such a delicious new Japanese restaurant in the nabe! My partner and I got delivery, and both got the Spicy Miso Ramen and it was among the best I've had in NYC. Rich broth with depth of flavor. I loved the variety of toppings that were included. You can add other things for an additional charge, but we felt it was "loaded" as-is! The karage Japanese fried chicken was tasty, with very juicy meat and a nice crisp exterior. Seaweed salad good too. Can't wait to dine in. We're going to try the takoyaki fried octopus and some sushi! read more

A cozy japanese restaurant in Courtelyou. We got sushi, chicken karaage, and tan tan ramen. Overall, the food was tasty and was served quickly. I took off a star as I felt like the tan tan ramen was a bit less flavorful than I was expecting, but I'll try the others next time. The service was a 10/10 and it seemed like everyone in this restaurant was enjoying their meal. You can tell that the owners really cared about this place. I felt cared for in this spot and I can't wait to come back. read more

I was not impressed! The Unagi Don was too small! I love original Japanese restaurants. In the '90's, in NY, I was privy of lots of good sushi restaurants, but then a lot of other asians started ruining the quality. This one is not a genuine Japanese owned restaurant. I don't have certainties, but I didn't hear japanese hostess sounding the typical salutation... I can't repeat. I will go back for ramen noodles. read more
