Pramod PaiMay 8, 2015Each bowl of ramen broth is extracted from about 24oz of the pork bone marrow .
Benjamin PalmerAugust 2, 2016the clams and the uni are spectacular. don't fall for the foi gras fried chicken. all the ramen is v good
Escape CardonaDecember 10, 2015Awesome ramen spot . Food is great. The stuffed chicken is def something to try.
This is probably my favorite place to eat in all of New York. Heidy and Josh serve up the best ramen in the Big Apple imo. So much imagination!- Love this place! Both the spicy miso and the wasabi shoyu ramens are super in point. Can't wait to try the tonkatsu 2.0 next.
Jing Jing LiFebruary 27, 2017If they have it, the Mu Ichiban is the way to go. Slightly smokier than the Tonkotsu, it's delicious
Savannah PetrickMarch 6, 2016make sure to put your name down ahead of time and grab a drink next door while you wait
FotisNovember 2, 2016best ramen in town with reasonable prices. expect a line to be seated but the food is worth the wait.
AllenMarch 28, 2016Phenomenal flavors. Soup broths weren't overly salty and my Mu Ramen had incredible bone-y flavor with just the right amount of toppings.
Ruth MadrigalJuly 18, 2015Place is small and cozy, and service is good. I can see why some people see them as a contender to Ippudo. Personally I liked their noodles better because they did not taste overly salty!
What's Good HereOctober 20, 2015Okonomiyaki - the sweetness of the scallion pancakes go well with the smoked trout
Always pick up a matcha soda to go with your meal! So refreshing
Nicholas M.July 12, 2017You will have to wait for a seat and your joints will hurt the next day but the ramen is worth it.
Everything is delicious. The wings stuffed with brioche and fois gras are amazing. CASH ONLY.
Greg Wong 🎯June 27, 2015Try to come 10 minutes before opening to make sure you get a spot in the first seating. (~5:20)
Dane BJune 15, 2017A little disappointed that the namesake Mu Ramen wasn't on the menu on my visit, but the miso ramen was as good as any that I've had in the city.
Tony XerriMarch 13, 2019Delicious. If you dont start with a foie gras chickenwing, you're in trouble...
What's not to like here?!? Should try the chicken wing thing and uni and the ramen... All of them!!!
Sonny DatoyDecember 6, 2013amazing seafood ramen (limited time offering). literally the biggest shrimp i've seen. one of the best broths among ramen spots.
Connie ChiuDecember 11, 2014Seriously better than the hype. Always get the egg. And the decor, oh that decor.
Rei WangSeptember 4, 2015Perfection. My new favorite ramen spot in NYC. Get the Tonkotsu with the onsen tamago.
Everything here is excellent. My favourite tonkotsu in NYC.
Ryan EickJanuary 22, 2016The house special (with corned beef and oxtail broth) was absolutely delicious- Jon WuDecember 14, 2013U-N-I is delicious, and make sure you get pork jowl with your ramen, SO tender!

Tiffany LangstonJanuary 17, 2015Get there 20 minutes before Mu opens or the wait can stretch to 90 minutes or more
markus gerdemannFebruary 26, 2016One of the best ramen spots in NYC. Great service and great ambience!
Really can't go wrong. Everything is so tasty and unique
Jamie DumbillJanuary 16, 2017The food is brilliant! Cash only policy is annoying it's 2017 not 1980. Get Square or some other method of taking card.
LARRYAugust 13, 2015Unfortunately this ramen joint is NOT vegetarian friendly at all. Hopefully the chef can come up with a good veggie broth!
Omer ZachFebruary 29, 2016Their Tonkotsu 2.0 is phenomenal (though very similar to Ippudo's tonkotsu).
