Jeremy Fisher: Transforms into Yuji Ramen in the evenings. Great sashimi starter, ramen, and mazeman
Eater: Okonomi does Williamsburg proud with waste-free Japanese lunch and exotic ramen dinner. The set menu always involves a bowl of rice and miso soup, the veggie accompaniments vary seasonally. Read more.
Dave S: Simple and serene. Every day there is one set meal for $9 in the traditional Japanese ichi ju san sai style, one soup and three sides with seasonal ingredients. Love it here.

Irene Feleo: Had the tuna shoyu ramen. Was simple, delicious and refined - I really loved this place!
Village Voice: The Ankimo Miso Ramen features noodles which swim in a creamy monkfish liver broth with torched squid and bitter dandelion greens. Kind of weird, but it tastes like you're eating the ocean.
Gregory Fisher: The bacon and egg is so good I literally ordered another one right after the first...get it!

Lauren Downing: Everything is just so perfect and thoughtful. My order: medium broth, scallions, whole garlic clove, standard chashu, medium richness, standard hiden no tare and half portion kae-dama ❤️
valerie: Dining alone here just feels right. Just like the ones in Japan (except there's a section for group tables, and it's at least 3x more expensive).
Tom: Inconvenient to get to, a little pricier than the comp (especially w/ toppings), but it's simply the best bowl of ramen outside of Japan. Hype seems to have dyed down, no wait for lunch on a weekend
