Amazing service & their vegan ramen is phenomenal! My favorite is their banana cream dessert & buckwheat tea.

I have been to Tonchin LA, and now Tonchin NY. Tonchin NY has better ramen and noodles, and in terms of ambience, is cozier. Lots of seating, and nice waiters, vibe of a bar. Dim lights, and quite peaceful. Compared to LA, everything is better. Overall, Tonchin NY is one of the best Ramen and noodles places in NY. read more

Everything here was really great. The Williamsburg location is very nice, and we had no issue getting a same-day reservation. Our server was great, and the food was very good. The spicy ramen was my favorite. A little pricey for what it is but overall would likely come back! read more

The wings were super crispy and the seasoning was so delicious wish they added a bit more. My ginger miso ramen was delicious. The broth was extremely flavorful. I recommend adding chili oil if you like a little spice. I was told the original tonkotsu ramen but good but my broth was better. I didn't try that one because I try to stay away from pork. All in all the service and experience was great, would definitely go back. read more

Overall pretty good ramen. We got the spicy tantan ramen and vegan miso ginger ramen. The noodles were nice and chewy and the broth was flavorful. The ramen is a little bit on the pricier end but that might have to do with the fact that the midtown one is Michelin rated. We also shared the mango shaved ice. By the time we ordered dessert it got super busy and we waited quite some time for the dessert. There were bits of mango that was pretty fresh and other bits that were not. I'm not sure mango is season so that would explain it. I would say this would be a good date spot but it got so loud later on I could barely hear my friend. read more

4.5/5! Started with the pink tartare and wings. I wish the tartare came with something crispy. Eating just the tartare was bit weird but delicious nonetheless! The wings were crispy and juicy. The seasoning was flavorful and complimented the wings well. I got the dip ramen and it was amazing. The broth was super concentrated and paired very well with the cold noodles. My boyfriend got the classic and it was good but not as flavorful as the dipping ramen. Mango shaved ice and house made cream paired perfectly! read more

Great tsukemen at Tonchin! The noodles were perfectly chewy and the broth was rich and flavorful. I'd recommend adding the lemon before dipping--it really brightens things up if you're after a more refreshing twist. Definitely worth a visit! read more

I arrived under a reservation and as I walked inside there wasn't a person in sight. I stood watching people run around without acknowledging me. As I walked back towards the entrance a man appeared and asked if I was waiting to be seated. Yes! Once seated it took a while to wave down a waiter to order a drink. Very happy to see non alcoholic options. I went for green lemonade - they bring a lemonade and pour a thick matcha paste inside. I really liked it! But it was $12 which is kind of crazy. When I tried to make it at home, I couldn't get the matcha to be as thick. Curious what the trick is! Of course I got the vegan ginger miso ramen. And it was... Delicious. I'd say it's on my top list for vegan ramen. The broth was flavorful and rich and the noodles were perfect. The food truly made up for strangely slow service. read more

Blown away by the ramen here! We came here around 6pm on a Tuesday night and there were no reservations available online but at lot of open 2 top tables we were able to grab. We had the pizza ramen which was just so interesting and delicious, I'm not sure I would get it again but I'm really glad I tried it and would recommend anyone to try it! We also got a classic ramen that was excellent and one of the very best I've ever had. So happy we came here and will def be back. Music was also great, the right level of noise and kept a chill vibe. read more

Come for the food, stay for the ambiance and service. This is a very intimate restaurant with both front of the restaurant and back of the restaurant seating. The back is a little more buzzing (with tables and booths) but the front has high tables and low tables (2 seaters) and can be roomier depending on what type of theme you're looking for. It's good for couples and catching up with friends. The Tonkotsu Ramen has a delicious broth, something that can be a hit or miss depending on which ramen restaurant you go to in NYC. The dipping version of this ramen is also available. The appetizers that we got: White Tartare ($28) which came with a scoop of caviar and a small chip (if you want more it's $2 extra), was tasty but not sure if it was $28 tasty. The 6PC Wings were delicious and not too spicy, this was the better of the two appetizers. The wine: We got a skin contact special (photo posted) which was recommended by the Som. This was a refreshing bottle for $68 The service was very attentive as well. For 3 people our bill was $200 after tip. read more

The ramen is pretty solid. Every broth we tried was really well seasoned. The dashi broth had a strong fish flavour which can be a bit too much to drink the whole bowl of, but every bowl was good. The pink tartare tasted pretty good and had a strong wasabi flavour, but it was too expensive in my opinion. Probably wouldn't get that again read more

TLDR: The Williamsburg location of Michelin-starred Tonchin. Some classic menus items are here but very different vibes at this shop and different apps. The small plates are expensive. If you're going to come, stick with the ramen. If you can make the trip though, I would much rather go to the Midtown location. I was curious about the Brooklyn Tonchin since I heard they were opening. To be candid, didn't love it. The layout/interior is very different from the original. That's fine but I found the appetizers to be very expensive and the portions to be quite small. Maybe a bit too small given the cost. Wagyu Coulotte. I guess something of a take on a carpaccio. Not bad but the beef was razor-thin and this thing was gone literally in seconds. Shiitake. Mushrooms, tofu hummus. This was good but again, very small portion and to be honest just felt out of place. It seemed very random for the menu. No gyoza? We did order a tartare dish but it actually never came. Service definitely needs to find its footing first. No tsukemen at this location. Smoked Dashi + Tokyo Tonkotsu were both good, not as good as the Midtown one but they were fine. If you've wanted to try Tonchin and you're local to the area, it's cool place to have in the neighborhood. Drop in and grab a bowl. I think the portion sizes need to align with the prices and definitely service needs to improve. Personally - I'd much rather go to the Midtown location with the more extensive menu. read more

The ramen here is SO good!! It was probably very close to being the best ramen I've had. I got the pork ramen and I finished the whole bowl, which is unheard of for me. My friend and I also tried the tuna tartar which was also so delicious. We didn't have a reservation beforehand and were told the wait was 45 minutes but we luckily only had to wait about 15-20 minutes. That service was a little slow but everyone was really nice read more

Tonchin is my go to ramen place in NYC. I bring all my visitors to this place because I think their food is great. I knew I had to try the Williamsburg location since I like the midtown location so much. I was surprised to find out that this location has a different menu from the midtown location. My go to is usually the Tsukemen, but they don't have that at this location, so I decided to try the Smoked Dashi Ramen. I loved the ramen. The firmness of the noodles were perfect. My cousin had the Spicy Tan Tan Ramen, which was also amazing. We also tried the Shiitake Bites, which is a hummus with thinly sliced bread, which is sort of like a crisp. The flavor was delicious. And the bread crisps went perfectly with it. I will for sure come back to this location. I just hope they start serving the Tsukemen here too! read more

Came on a rainy Saturday for lunch after an hour of hot yoga and getting stuck in the rain. Because of that ramen was a given need that day. I ordered the spicy ramen and it was good - broth was very savory and delicious, noodles were good, added a side of corn and that added great flavors - my only wish is there was more meat. the two you see in the picture was all i got. plus not a lot of veggies - still though the portion was quite large i was not able to finish all the noodles but i crushed the broth and meats. servers and staff are nice and the ambiance is cute and romantic - would recommend! read more

Tonchin - spicy ramen - Ramen Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great place to go if you like ramen and great service. I didn't give it 5 stars due to it being quite expensive. I can't justify the price, but I guess since the one in the city is Michelin rated so this one should reflect it. I liked how they gave you a choice if you didn't make reservations to wait it out by eating at a standing table or just grab a drink. I didn't make reservations, but lucked out by doing the waiting and a table became available not too long afterwards. Unto the entree, I got the spicy tan tan noodles. It had a kick to it with peppers to make it spicy. I also like the roasted chasu which is pork. All the ingredients came together. I also liked the potato bites that were ordered. It wasn't how I pictured it to look so got me by surprise. Last but not least got the dessert and it was epic. Pretty refreshing. The shaved ice was great! I would definitely order the same dessert again if I were ever to go back. read more

this place is a bit pricey but the food was delicious!! their ramen was to die for!! the waiters were very friendly and attentive!

Probably one of the best ramen restaurants I've ever been to. Great vibes and atmosphere for a date. Oddly, the non-alcoholic drinks are the ones that shine for me. The Colette was roasted red peppery and so good. The white tartare was one of the most outstanding tartares I ever had. The oysters were dressed up so nicely and at MP, it wasn't that bad. The tebasaki wing was marinated and fried without batter. Taste phenomenal. The yakitori wagyu was just layer of layer of deliciousness. The ramens were super delicious. Comparable to ippudo. The shaved ice was refreshing. Huge portions but the standout was really the cream on top. Again, just an overall great dining experience. read more

Ordered smoked dashi ramen, loved the flavor and the broth. So why 2 stars? 1. EVERY single clam has sand in it. This is unacceptable. Cleaning the sand out of the clams is so easy and yet not done. 2. I'm mildly allergic to bamboo shoots, and asked if my order contains any when I ordered. Server said no, and there were 2 bamboo shoots right on my ramen. read more

Homemade coke, PIZZA RAMEN, and mango shaved ice!!! This meal felt like something out of a dream, everything was so distinctly flavorful and while it was all excellent, the mango shaved ice stands out as the biggest surprise because it was so well presented and easy to share with a table (they serve chilled bowls with it to allow you to scoop into your bowl without it melting). As far as the ramen itself... also outstanding. I never would have imagined "pizza ramen" would exist in this world but it somehow does and it is DELICIOUS. Service was a bit slow but I'm not docking any points here because it's a lovely environment to eat and hang out in and it didn't bother me one bit that things took a little while. Good things come to those who wait, and if the food is gonna be this good, they can take as long as they need to as far as I'm concerned! We also ate around 7pm on a Saturday so the place was likely at its busiest. read more

Great experience at Tonchin. The ambiance was very dark, moody and intimate, yet great for groups of people to gather for a meal. The food, drinks and dessert were all so delicious. My personal favorite was the dashi salad, which was so savory and unique. The ramen is the epitome of what good ramen should be, simple yet flavorful. I love that the broth, noodles and pork were not masked by other distracting add-ins or toppings, except for some scallions and a soft boiled egg. The service was really quick, and our waitress was really friendly, but did not blow us out of the water read more

Such an amazing ramen experience. Speakeasy environment with a great bar and sake choices. Reservations is a way to go. Took advantage of Sunday brunch menu and oyster happy hour. Bite the bullet and order more than 3 oysters, they are worth it. Tonchin Classic Tokyo Tonkotsu was my go to and the finest ramen I've ever had. Go ahead and order the extra noodles, you deserve it. Finished off with the mango shaved ice. Don't skip this part, I promise you will have room to eat dessert. Place is worth every penny spent. read more

Required a reservation. We waited about 5 mins to get seated. Ordered food immediately, but waited 30 +mins along with asking the server why our food isnt here yet. We ordered the spicy chicken wings which are great and not too spicy. I ordered the smoked dashi ramen which was more bland than the spicy ramen. The broth for the spicy ramen is just a little thicker, but has more flavor. Came here with friends and it was just the right vibe. read more

The staff is outstanding and the food never misses. I always come for the lunch set--the hand roll comes with a little good luck fortune inside. What more could you ask for? read more

The restaurant has a nice ambience and I think it would be good for a date night! My friends and I came by on a Saturday night w a reservation and were seated right away. I got the classic Tonkatsu ramen which was really flavorful, although a tiny bit too salty for me. The egg was a perfect soft boil and the cha siu was very yummy. The cha siu was thinner than most other ramen place I've been to but I think it worked in this instant bc it almost melted in your mouth since it was thin. My friend got the spicy tan tan and really enjoyed it as well - it def has a bit of a kick to it if. We got the mango kakigori for dessert after ($16 FYI bc there's no written dessert menu). The cream on top wasn't too sweet and was a really good compliment to the shaved ice. It wasn't super crunchy shaved ice which I appreciated. A nice light dessert to end the meal! The shaved ice also comes in strawberry or matcha flavors. They also have banana pudding and a panna cotta as other dessert options. Overall def recommend stopping by Tonchin - I haven't been to the Manhattan location but thought this one was pretty tasty! read more

Highly recommend Tonchin! The ambiance is super classy and the music isn't loud. Overall a nice environment to have dinner. Service was prompt and our server was super friendly. The menu walkthrough was much appreciated. Food Rundown: I ordered the classic ramen, and was satisfied with the noodles, thick broth and pork slices. The chicken wing appetizer was tasty but pricy, and we enjoyed the salad appetizer more. Looking forward to coming back for the ramen and other appetizers soon! read more

Silky broth, perfect noodles! A flavor bomb. Worth the slurp. Soul-warming. Great ambience, great drinks

Came here as it was way easier to get a reservation compared to the Manhattan location. Tonchin lived up to it's hype! Ambiance wise, it was pretty loud in the back. The front of the restaurant seemed a bit more quiet and would be appropriate for a date - it was hard to talk without yelling over people. They also don't have a cocktail menu yet, but have an extensive wine list. I tried their seasonal "pizza ramen" as well as the tonkotsu, and the strawberry shaved ice for dessert. The pizza ramen is THE REASON for the 5 stars - I don't know how they did it but they literally made it taste just like pizza without making it weird. Highly recommend if they have it on the menu! The tonkotsu was good but not mind blowing. The shaved ice was my friends personal favorite - it was huge! Probably enough for four people to share, and the cream on the top was delish. I loved the branding and overall vibe of the place, would definitely come again read more

I really enjoyed visiting Tonchin in Brooklyn. The ramen was amazing. The homemade noodles are chewy and have the perfect amount of chew to them. I tried the classic ramen and enjoyed the deep flavor. I tried the broth of the spicy dipping noodles (spicy, yet creamy in a good way) and broth of the smoky ramen (interesting!). Appetizers were decent though nothing special - potatoes, chicken wings, and the salmon tartare daily special. The star of Tonchin is the noodles. Service is attentive and the ambience was chic. I really Enjoyed the neighborhood -- really cool street! read more

Tonchin surprised me with the good food and trendy vibes. the decor gives the place a hip, cool feel and the clientele here echo that feeling. While it was empty at the beginning, I was glad we had a reservation because this place filled up. The drink menu has a number of wines and sakes as well as japanese whiskey to accompany the meal. Our waiter kindly let us try some of the sakes before finally settling on one to accompany our meal. For the appetizer, we started with the shiitake and the miso pork. The shiitake is actually hummus dipping sauce served with a thin crispy bread. It was interesting but not my favorite. The miso pork surprised me - the flavor was almost reminiscent of beef bulgogi. We enjoyed it. For the entree, we tried smoked dash ramen and the spicy tan tan tsukemen (cold noodles served with a bowl of thicker soup for dipping). Both were tasty and filling. Overall, I felt that this was was an enjoyable meal in a very nice atmosphere. It's good for a group of friends and for a date. read more

Ramen was very good and portions were filling. The restaurant is very romantic with candle lit dining. The service was not that great. We were sat by the door on a very rainy day it was so crowded by the entrance that people that basically standing next to my table as I was eating. The waitress look visibly annoyed and was very short with us. She spilt water onto my dress while pouring water and didn't even apologize. Service ruined what could've been a great dinner date with my boyfriend. read more

I want to preface this review by saying the Veggie Ramen Pizza I had was very good! However, I wish there were more non-pork based options. I'm a huge chicken ramen person and I get that the ramen here is different but as a non-pork eater I had to settle with the Veggie Ramen Pizza. The classic Ramen is a great option if you do eat pork and would definitely recommend in that case. The restaurant itself is a cute date spot. The ambiance is great and right in the thick of Williamsburg. read more

I've gone to the midtown location for years and it's my favorite ramen place in nyc. I was able to to get a last minute reservation for the bar which was a bunch of high top tables in the front.

Intro: Went for lunch on a weekend. Comfy environment. Food: I ordered the spicy tantan men. Very good ramen - anything and everything you would expect from a ramen place in NYC. Noodles were the perfect texture and in a great proportion with the toppings. What stood out for me here was the broth: oftentimes, in spicy ramen the broth is overpoweringly a spicy flavor and nothing else. Here, you could taste the depth of flavor. Tl;dr: Solid ramen in NYC - love the broth. My rating: 8/10 read more
