Time Out New YorkJune 4, 2013Owner Hiroshi Kubo grew up eating ramen in Tokyo, but spent 6 years in Fukuoka, where he fell in love with the tonkotsu broth. He seeks to combine his favorite types of ramen into an original NY style Read more
La B.August 13, 2013The space is intimate & cute. The spicy miso ramen is quite good. The owner was there when I went and he's really nice. He's part of a jazz band & plays at the restaurant some days.
Dave SDecember 8, 2018"The thing to get here is the Tonkotsu Chasu Tsukeman...The broth, which Kubo simmers for upwards of 60 hours, is thick, super-rich, and warm..." -Gothamist

Lauren HowellJanuary 21, 2011This is my fave ramen spot thus far. The miso ramen is delightful, and definitely try the pork buns as well. Also, the staff was very friendly and the service was superb.- Hiroshi KuboMarch 23, 2012We now have Taco-chan Sausage (たこちゃんウインナー)! This retro Japanese recipe is great with beer and sake. We make this only with finest Berkshire pork sausage. Come & try!
The spicy miso is a favorite, the broth and noodles are cooked deliciously! Owner is nice, gave me iced japanese tea as I waited for my take-out.- Hiroshi KuboAugust 21, 2014Kuboya Jazz Band moved to The Tokyo Tapas Café

Claire AbigailDecember 29, 2011Try the Spicy Miso ramen with extra pork ! Definitely the most tender pork I've ever had, it literally melts in your mouth :)- Hiroshi KuboMay 29, 2012How about some $1.99 Sapporo drafts at Happy Hour 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm and our new special appetizers made just for the upcoming hot summer ?
Go for extra pork, don't miss the spicy miso or shio ramen, and they actually make fried rice amazing.
Geronimo JimenezFebruary 22, 2013Amazing spicy chicken wings and their policy (that you can read in the bathroom) is noteworthy!
Kit LamAugust 18, 2011Come here to enjoy the environment and music. The food is excellent, slow down your life and enjoy things!
Def better than minca. More broths to try and IMO they've all been better. I like the spicy miso broth best.
Anri INovember 6, 2010Get the layu with your shoyu ramen. It gives a little bit of heat to the bowl and makes you want to keep eating it forever !
- Hiroshi KuboMarch 23, 2012Have you tried our Fried Chicken with Tartar Sauce yet? It's the best in the world!
Leiti HsuAugust 11, 2011Ask Kubo-chan the former salaryman himself what broths that week are faring tastiest!
JuAnne NgFebruary 11, 2011get the avocado salmon tartare and the chili oil for the other apps or ramen!
stephiedooOctober 5, 2011I actually crave their fried rice more than the noodles. It's simple but yummy.
Ling LeeSeptember 22, 2013The ramen here is way too salty. Solid fried rice, but go to Minca next door for your ramen fix.
The ramen is really good. The chili oil makes it out of this world.
matt buchananOctober 13, 2010Get the extra pork. It's well worth $2 as some of the best ramen pork in the city.
Cissy ZhouSeptember 22, 2013The chicken and fried rice are decent. Avoid the ramen at all cost unless you want to die of sodium intake.
michael nerenburgSeptember 21, 2011Food is mediocre. Service is a disaster. We were the only people there. 2 hours for ramen. Are you serious? Go anywhere else unless you don't mind eating much later than intended.
Cam CrossFebruary 5, 2011Waited 10 mins for table, sat down, waitress ignored us and the two tables next to us for a good 15 minutes, and we left. No protest from waitress. Went to Minca...
