This place is so cozy and adorable, plus the ramen is one of the best I’ve had in the city after years of searching. Very Japanese vibes. They have great vegan/vegetarian options as well.

Compliments to the chef at Samurai Papa! I ate the best ramen I have ever had tonight. The food came out so quickly and tasted fresh, flavorful, and sooo delicious. The service was fantastic, as well, and the music was great. We will be back!

I’m so glad I found this ramen spot! Small and cozy, the staff is so friendly and welcoming, and the ramen was outstanding. 10/10.

Some of the best ramen I’ve had outside of Japan. The ramen is light and the broth flavourful. The food menus accommodates for a lot with both cold and hot options. Extensive drink menus too. It is a small space but so worth the wait

In the heart of BedStuy is this Ramen gem! I wish I could give this more than 5 stars. The flavors and quality of food, the vibe and service is impeccable. Absolutely so satisfying, especially when you’re really hungry! We split a Dan Dan ramen and salmon bento box and went non verbal so encompassed by the meal. I will also usually grab a few appetizers to begin, definitely get some gyoza. So excited to come back 🍜

I was doing my Sunday walk about when I stumbled across this restaurant hidden in the cut. I scratched my head because I don't remember seeing it ever. I walked in it was a small place but small place means that I might have a chance to get a seat during a mid afternoon. And I did. I do wish it was bigger perhaps if we continue to support this place The owner might decide to find a larger space and who knows what will happen there after, hint hint. I really liked the friendliness of the gentleman behind the bar and it seemed as though I was not the only one who was new to this place as a customer stated the food is really good. So now that cause me to have to try it. I checked the menu and to my surprise they had the brussel sprouts that I have only tried once at another restaurant. Need I tell you that I ordered it of course I don't need to tell you that but I'm telling you I ordered it and omg what fabulous flavors. I also ordered the spicy Dandan however I didn't order it dry I ordered it as a soup which was absolutely wonderful. As you can see in the photo great presentation. My mouth was tingling with fire just the way I like it not overbearing at all. Little baby bok choy was nice and clean and fresh throughout the leaves. If you're coming here make sure that you look for this place right at the corner because you can miss it it's in front of the bus stop. I'm glad I went out on my Sunday walk and I'm glad I chose this restaurant. The price was reasonable and I have room for dessert but chose to take a dessert somewhere else that I've never tried before perhaps next time. As I always say you could take my advice or you could try it out for yourself please step into this restaurant and enjoy.

Tasty food, good cocktails, and a unique setting. All the seats are bar/counter in the front, and there’s a small enclosed back seating area—they can accommodate about 20 people at once indoors, which is impressive in the space. Varied menu with assorted options of soba and ramen. Lots of vegetarian options. The lychee cocktail was nice. People seemed to like the canned Hi Chus, too. The ramen and soba both had a good amount of noodles and were filling. The flan was nice, not super sweet with strong cha flavor. Friendly staff. There were some people hanging out for quite a while and they didn’t rush anyone out.

Fantastic, authentic ramen spot. After trying samurai mama (incredible!) I found that papa is their sister shop. The names are incredibly accurate; papa is more of a traditional, classical, ma and pa feel; mama is more of a rustic upscaled vibe, and the ramen is slightly lighter. Heavier broth is in the tanban ramen, though flavorful and great ratio of noddles to soup to additions. The pork was well prepared. You can tell they take pride in their service and food. No MSG meant my stomach was not on fire of inflammation and swelling. I had leftovers as well - I only got the ramen soup . I will absolutely be coming back and referring to others!
