Yummy ramen with a fantastic tonkotsu broth: uber savory and clung well to the noodles for delicious bite after bite. I also enjoyed the ratio of the toppings to the noodles. There's more seating…

Excellent ramens and all sorts of small appetizers professionally done for you right in the open in the back of the restaurant. When we entered the restaurant, all waiters yelled “welcome”.

We will be back! Food, service, ambiance and overall vibe was great! Not to mention pricing was more than fair for NYC!

We first ordered takoyaki, edamame, and aioli chips to share, and they were honestly amazing. Everything we ordered for the table was really delicious. We tried calling to make a reservation but couldn’t get through, and if you’re a large group without a reservation, they make you wait until all your friends arrive. My friends ordered ramen and really liked it. The portions were very generous. We also ordered buns. I tried the chicken bun and absolutely loved it. I had the Manhattan Bridge sushi. It was good, but I wish I had ordered the spicy shrimp tempura instead. Overall, the food was tasty and enjoyable. A great spot, especially for sharing plates with friends.

Ippudo East Village easily serves some of the best ramen I’ve ever had. I consumed my bowl in minutes. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles perfectly chewy, and everything came out piping hot and beautifully balanced. It’s clear they take their craft seriously. That said, it’s also quite pricey for the portion size, and I was a bit put off when the staff requested additional tips on top of the already included 20% gratuity. It didn’t ruin the meal, but it did sour the experience slightly. Also, a few gluten-free colleagues in my group couldn’t find much they could eat, which was disappointing given how popular the place is. Still, the ramen alone makes it worth visiting. If you’re not restricted by diet and don’t mind paying a premium, Ippudo delivers an exceptional bowl of comfort.

not bad, but not as impressive as I expected. The ramen had good flavor, but the broth felt a bit lighter than the original in Japan. The noodles were nice, though the portion felt small for the price. Service was friendly and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere, but overall, it didn’t quite capture that “wow” factor. Still, it’s a decent spot if you’re craving ramen in the city.

Top notch service and atmosphere. Had the karage, spicy gyoza and dragon tantan ramen. Wasn’t blown away by anything, but the ingredients were high quality and presentation was good. Would order a different bowl or ramen on my next visit.

Ippudo is amazing! The ramen is rich and flavorful, the noodles perfectly cooked, and the service is excellent. A must-visit for any ramen lover!

I recently visited this place, and it was a good experience! The chicken ramen had a broth that wasn’t overly thick but still packed a great depth of flavor—comforting and satisfying. The veggie buns were a standout for me, absolutely delicious with their soft texture and flavorful filling. The ambiance is trendy yet cozy, making it a great spot to unwind with friends or even dine solo. The service was efficient, and the staff were attentive. Whether you’re a ramen enthusiast or just looking for a good vibe and tasty food in the East Village, Ippudo NY is worth the visit.

Good ramen. The staff was all very nice and they let us sit there and chat for a while without pushing us out. Also a nice ambiance and space. Would go back

It was good, quick, but overpriced for ramen. The staff was friendly. I got seated right away.

Delicious but I can't go too often because it's expensive. They always provide really great service.

Great noodles. Great ambiance. Looked cool and the service was good. Just didn't like that ramen for 25$ doesn't come with a boiled egg.

As far as vegetarian ramen goes, definitely one of the best choices in New York. Be prepared to order extra noodles, because you’ll have plenty of broth leftover.

This place is a bit overhyped. The food was good but nothing stood out and it could be found in any other Japanese restaurant. The servers are very kind and the wait was not too bad for dinner on a Saturday night

Ambient ramen experience in LES! Right off Union Sq, great place for a big group of friends. Have to say the experience of eating here is quite pleasing, but for me the food is so so. I got a pork bun, which was quite good, and the spicy miso ramen. Though it photographed beautifully, the ramen was just okay, I found it a bit too oily and just texturally off. Wasn’t super impressed with the other flavors. Also, kind of wild to me that the soft boiled egg was an extra topping and didn’t come with it automatically. I’ve come here a few times now for the vibe and convenient location but left a bit unsatisfied.

I came here this past Saturday and was disappointed. my husband and I have been here many times we and we think the chef changed as the food was different and tasted different. Ordered the karaage chicken and it used to come with a side dipping sauce and it came plain this time. we ordered the karaka spicy ramen and the pork has changed as it was basically a slice of pork and not their past thick, charred pork. we didn’t enjoy it. it was way too dark in there as well.

Fun, vibey restaurant whose hard-to-find door, dark lighting, and "cool but class" decor give it a slightly mysterious, almost speakeasy-like atmosphere. The staff is all super friendly, and I appreciate that you can either end up at your own table or at one of the long, cafeteria-style shared tables (perfect for people watching or potentially meeting someone new, if you're lucky). I had heard amazing things about Ippudo's ramen, but I was honestly far less impressed by the food compared to the ambiance; the noodles were solid, with a decent bite and the right thickness, but the broth was a smidge lacking in flavor. To be totally fair, I got their vegetarian option, which automatically has a pretty steep disadvantage to the meat-based menus, but it still seemed to be lacking in "wow" factor compared to other plant-based ramen dishes. The tofu slices felt quite bland and didn't do a great job soaking up the broth, and while I enjoyed the crisp of the fried mushrooms on top, there wasn't a ton of them and you had to eat them super quickly before they got soggy. We also tried their takoyaki, which was tasty, but not really a must-try compared to other Japanese restaurants around the city. I had a great time at Ippudo, but I don't think it'll be at the top of my bucket list, especially since it trends quite pricey for the quality.

The hostess, the bartender, and our waiter were all great. Unfortunately, the experience was completely ruined once the manager showed up. Minutes after our birthday group of nine sat down and received our drinks, the manager rudely told us to order, eat, and leave as soon as possible because they “needed the table” for other customers waiting. The tone was dismissive and unprofessional, especially for a group celebrating a birthday. No customer should be made to feel rushed or unwelcome like that after being seated and served. Very disappointing management behavior. I would not recommend this location. 😳 😱 😡
