Spicy build your own ramen
SaraJane D.

My daughters love this Ramen spot because they have a build your own ramen menu selection. They can build the type of ramen they like from the soup base, type of noodle and toppings. They have a good selection of apps and entrees along with boba and fruit tea drink selections. It's a solid ramen spot with a decent amount of seating. It tends to get busier during Friday nights and weekends but the wait is never really long. The scallion pancakes are a fave especially because of the dipping sauce it comes with which is a type of soy vinegar.

Tonkotsu Ramen lunch special with Takoyaki, extra egg, and shrimp tempura
Sherry C.

This was my second time trying Yayoi Ramen and honestly, it was satisfying. It was cold today and I just got over being sick a week ago so it was nice being able to have ramen with hearty broth. There's a parking lot that is shared with other businesses. My friend and I both ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen from the lunch special for $16.95. It's a great value for what it came with, an appetizer and a drink. I went with the takoyaki (3 pieces) and iced peach oolong tea. I was being extra and ordered more than what my stomach can handle (I was hungry). I ordered an extra egg and an order of shrimp tempura. I don't recommend doing this unless you can eat more than the average person. The bowl of ramen has a generous portion size! The service is quick and they served our food quickly. The restaurant can be a bit noisy with the kitchen staff talking (they were very loud) but I didn't mind it. They looked like they got along with each other. The restaurant is clean.

Amazing! This spot is very cute! It's our second time here and it didn't disappoint. The staff here is super friendly and very attention their customers. We had the ramen of course and the broth was delicious! Drinks wise, we did a pot of tea which was great. Must have the desert!! Overall, great ramen spot! Will be back!

While I can see why many people give this place a 4 if you can serve me vegetarian ramen past 10PM and take an order before closing while having it be exceptionally good I am impressed. Vegan ramen packed with veggies, super delicious. I can not recommend enough would def want to eat there in person to get the full experience!

Came here for lunch. The staff was friendly. Restaurant was clean and decent seating. Okay for large groups but i would call in advance. We love how they have a build your own ramen. The spicy tonkatsu was pretty spicy. The curry was good. Very generous amount of curry. The chicken was a little dry but not too bad. The karrage chicken was giant pieces of dark meat. The pork buns were good. The pork was tender. We order two drinks and they were okay. Very sweet

Tofu Teriyaki Donburi

If you're looking for some different Japanese flavors this place is the one. We come here for ramen, Japanese curry, fried chicken, and other favorites. The service here is quick and everything that comes out to the table is fresh. The place is a cute restaurant and gets really busy really quick.

Agedashi tofu
Chelsia T.

A humble ramen place at the quiet side of the mall. The interior is clean and bright. The servers are very attentive. The price of the dishes is very reasonable. However, the food we ordered were not as we expected. We ordered the agedashi tofu, chicken paitan ramen and shrimp tempura ramen. The tofu's batter was too thick so it is quite hard and hot. The broth of the Paitan was not very flavorful and rich enough. The grilled chicken tasted good and juicy but not the usual chicken you would see on ramen. The tempura batter was thick too.

Agadeshi Tofu
Calvin K.

I visited this restaurant after gym with my wife, and yes I craved for fried Japanese food all of a sudden. This is a restaurant satisfied my craving. First of all, the price of the food here seems 50 cents to 75 cents less expensive than typical ramen place in Queens, NY. It made me feel more satisfied. Thank You. Let's talk about food. We ordered the Agadeshi Tofu as appetizer and Tempura Udon (told ya I was craving for fried Japanese food). They are all satisfying but not to a full extended. Let me quote from a 5-stars Hotel Chef friend, it is the harmony between ingredients that makes a good dish. I would say the batter of both the Tofu and Tempura seems a little bit too thick. It made the sauce and noodle soup don't stay on the tofu and the tempura. They are perfectly fried, but would be better if they are not shining on its own. My wife ordered this Chicken Paitan Ramen. I tried a little bit of the broth. It is light and clear if you like the broth to be not so thick or salty. Regarding to the Ambiance, It kind of reminded me Kyuramen in Queens. What is better is they sell Alcohol, woohoo . It can easily be turned into a little party place with friends. My suggestion is, adding a list of izakaya food on the menu would attract another group of customer. Overall 85 out of 100 I like its instant satisfaction of craving. Calvin

Food was really good. I would definitely go back. I do like the selections that they have of Ramen and you can also build your own. I also really liked our Bao buns.

The stir-fried veggies which were seasoned well
Christina M.

The staff was very knowledgeable and attentive to my gluten allergies and the food was delicious. It's been a while since I've been able to eat ramen (mainly because everywhere has ZERO accommodations) so I was pleasantly surprised. I got the kimchi beef ramen in miso broth and had some of the sti-fried veggies on the side. The broth was delicious, noodles were super chewy and bouncy, and the kimchi was really good. Will come here again.

Tonkotsu Ramen
Richard H.

Stumbled on this ramen spot while intending to go to Kura Sushi in the same shopping center--glad we did! We enjoyed the lunch from start to finish. First, a cool, clean, modern ambience with plenty of natural light. Started with pan-fried vegetable goyza. They were lightly fried and not greasy with a tasty filling. I had the tonkotsu ramen which was served in a large bowl, with a generous portion of thin noodles. Two slices of chashu were deliciously porky and tender. The broth was a mixture of chicken and pork bone broths which had a delightfully creamy mouth-feel. Minced pork and black garlic oil kicked the flavor quotient up a notch. My spouse had a build-your-own ramen which she loved as it had everything she wanted and nothing she didn't. She also had passionfruit boba tea which rivaled any boba tea shop. In summary, a happy accident that we ended up here. The next time will be intentional (and soon!).

I've been ordering DoorDash from this restaurant for months but this was the first time I've gone in person. I love their ramen so much. The interior was bright and clean. Dumplings were very crispy and they have lots of options to pick from. The beef was also delicious. Will definitely be back.

Euni B.

Cute ramen spot next to a really good sushi spot. Visiting family for the weekend and had a craving for some ramen. This place was walking distance from my hotel. Ramen did not disappoint. The service was bland and nothing spectacular but the ramen was plentiful and tasty! Good flavor and well presented.

From the moment you sit down, the experience feels intentional--warm wood tones, beautifully branded trays, and little details like the bamboo boxes stamped with Everyday is Ramen Day that instantly set the mood.- see picture The ramen... this is where Kyuramen really shines. The broth is rich and silky without being overly heavy, clearly simmered with care. The noodles have just the right bite, and the chashu pork is tender, flavorful, and generously portioned--melting into the broth with every bite. Simple, classic, and done right, which is harder to find than it should be. Everything arrives artfully plated, and the pacing is perfect--never rushed, never slow. It's an easy spot for a casual weeknight dinner, but also polished enough for a cozy date or a relaxed meal with family. If you're looking for ramen that balances quality, presentation, and comfort, Kyuramen absolutely delivers. This is a place you'll come back to--because yes, everyday really is ramen day.

Manager approached me & says w a smug look what are u lookin for? Not-Good afternoon/welcome/How are u/Would u like to be seated? & without asking if I would like a table, sat me at the bar in empty restaurant. While I'm there, another person walked in and they offered them a table in the seating area. I'm at the Ramen bar, the chefs are stuffing their face-Instead of using a designated area out of sight of customers. I tried to make conversation so they would get a clue-Nada. That was my 4th & last time. I honestly should've left upon arrival but tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. It got worse & my entire meal was rushed. I tried to bypass the lack of Hospitality from previous visits, and even recommended the place to some of my peers and their recent feedback + feeling rushed, was similar to mine. I did not leave a tip, and the manager got confrontational with me. I politely shared my feedback and walked out. Based on that experience, would you go back, would you have left a tip?

Made a reservation for 8pm and were seated immediately upon arrival. Warmly greeted and seated, we ordered 2 of the chef's choice omakase boxes and 2 sushi sashimi combos. All the fish was fresh, flavorful and higher than average quality. We met the owner, Mr. Kay and shared conversation about Japan. The staff was warm and personable. We enjoyed our dinner thoroughly and will be back for the miso black cod and hamachi kama next time. Dinner for 4, no drinks, about $200 all in, more than fair, about 35% less than the same experience in Manhattan. Looking forward to coming back, just to see Mr. K., oh and the sushi is great too.

The waitstaff were attentive and helpful. Only complaint about the setting is that every time someone went in or out, a rush of cold air would enter. Try not to sit too close to the door. As far as the food, daughter and I just ordered soon dubu (soft tofu stew) and ddukbokki (spicy rice cakes). We're Korean so flavor profile wise, it seemed to cater to non Korean palates. The soon dubu was not spicy and had too much of a sesame oil flavor and the ddukbokki was sweet with no spiciness at all. I think if you are non Korean, the seasoning was good and the food flavorful, just not the flavors we were expecting. Also, although the menu makes it seem like you have to pay for the banchan (appetizers), we did not, it came with the staple kimchee, and a couple other dishes. Not sure why they had prices on the menu unless they charge for refills? They also gave us this yummy ice cream bite for dessert which is usually unheard of in Korean restaurants. Having said all this, I do want to recommend this place, it was a nice local restaurant to get some Asian dishes with a great waitstaff.

You can easily spend hundreds of dollars for sush at Unamii that you can get l better value at midtown NYC or other LI spots.

There is a parking lot, but I had to wait for a car to leave to get a spot. I had made a reservation for 6 people at 7:00pm earlier in the week. My friends were running late, but I was seated in the meantime. Umami Sushi and Grill is modern, stylish, and spacious. We were seated in a private nook like an open bird cage and it allowed for a private and intimate dining experience. It was all of ours first time here and can't wait to go back. We started with the Mushroom Salad and Rock Shrimp Tempura Bites for appetizers. The mushroom salad had sautéed seasonal mushrooms with yuzu dressing. The rock shrimp was battered and lightly fried served with yuzu creamy spicy aioli sauce. The mushroom salad was refreshing and the rock shrimp flavor was great. We also ordered a bottle of Mio sparkling sake. I've always enjoyed this sake so I had to order it when I saw it on the menu. It is light, fruity, and slightly sweet. I ordered the Shaggy Dog Roll which had shrimp tempura inside, topped with crab meat, crunch, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. Very yummy and savored every bite. For dessert, I had the matcha cheesecake and I enjoyed it very much. The matcha cheesecake was packed with matcha flavor and it was creamy and luscious. The portion was smaller than the fried cheesecake and the fried ice cream that my friends got, but that was totally okay since the matcha cheesecake was so rich. Umami Sushi and Grill was the perfect place for my friends and I to catch up. Service was wonderful and we stayed at the restaurant for about 3 hours. The staff were attentive and still filled our water/hot tea. Definitely worth checking out.
