They DO NOT take reservations anytime. Be prepared to wait, but well worth it.
Penn AppetitMay 30, 2012
Silky noodles, pungent broth. The wait can be long, but it's almost always worth it.

All you need is that veggie bao bun✨
E BApril 18, 2011
Try the vegetarian one with Wasabi, spinach, it's just super yummy, i heard porc stuff are great if you're not vegetarian

Great ramen, really indifferent service up at the front

Patiently waiting on your meal? Pass the time by poking the squidgy wall.
Kim MuiOctober 10, 2011
kani and avocado with wasabi mayo is delicious! very creamy; i wish they gave you more chips though...
Irene HsuehJuly 31, 2014
Ramen is good. Waiting for sooo long to get a table. They don't sit u until everyone show up! Too noisy to chat with friend.

Richard ChenJune 30, 2011
I get the noodles done "katame" or hard al dente. And then order up a second noodle serving ("kaedama") while working on the chilled beer mug.
Andy TaoNovember 23, 2014

Christian the bartender makes the best Lychee martini you will find in the city. There is no other!

Go to Ippudo and ask for fresh, whole garlic with your ramen. Sometimes you can add it straight from the garlic press. So good, but bad for your breath.
Andres QuijanoSeptember 1, 2014
Ramen is great but you should try the pork buns...
Veronica DelimatJanuary 18, 2016
Whoa. Can't remember the last time I went somewhere so overrated! What a disappointment. I had the Akamaru Modern. Broth was tasty with plenty of scallions. However the pork was tough and flavorless.
Elie BleierNovember 11, 2014
Great ramen option in the east village
Will FlahertyJuly 11, 2012
Randomly easy to get a table at lunch with 3 ppl. 2 or 4 ppl? No Ramen For You!
Meri's FoodJune 4, 2017
Worth the line for a bowl of delicious ramen.
Miss ÂnneMay 23, 2012
Check out the action via the little window to the "workshop" on your way to the bathroom!
Laurie VeyJune 10, 2018
Great ramen! Wait is usually not too bad.
Stephanie LolengMarch 23, 2010

Nice noodles. Lines could be a bit long - come earlier.

Ippudo serves up a stupidly good pork bun that quite literally melts in your mouth. Read more
Alexa Mae AsperinMay 22, 2012
Best ramen noodles of my life. Modern ramen FTW (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Escott HayashidiazJanuary 15, 2016
Really long wait, but tasty noodles made on the premises.
Sarah KoFebruary 5, 2012
Ask for fresh garlic, press a couple of cloves right into your broth. Best enjoyed with a hangover.
Camila PeixeAugust 2, 2010
Seriously, exactly the same quality as the Tokyo locations. Akamaru modern with an onsen tamago and extra buta kakuni, I'm brand new.
David ChanMay 26, 2013

I think the chicken buns are better than the pork belly. Never thought I'd say it
Tom WalterNovember 9, 2019
Try the salmon BOM. So good.

This was best option in past but there are much better options.
Evelyn GMarch 24, 2010
If you're a vegetarian, there's a veggie option off the menu - with wasabi broth! it's yummy and not heavy!
leo kyivNovember 12, 2018
Ramen is superior)
Brad ParkJuly 11, 2013
the akumaru modern is way too greasy/느끼해. Opt for something like kakara(?) The spicy one
Christian GeorgeouMarch 7, 2011
If you finish off your noodles before finishing your broth, ask for a second round... they'll bring you another serving of noodles for just $1
Tyler McPheetersFebruary 13, 2017
Pork buns = Amazing.
Hannah DukeJuly 3, 2015
Pork buns and spicy chicken bowl!

Try menkui tei down the street - 1/2 the price, 1/4 of the attitude and 2x more delicious
