That's said it's still amazing and they sell their instant ramen which is still unrivaled to this day, I highly recommend picking some up.

But for some quiet self time, it's perfect. The staff was friendly, quick and helpful The ramen while fine was just a very basic ramen arrangement. The broth thickness can be adjusted but the flavoring was definitely meant for broader appeal and was found a little on the plainer side of broth offerings. For a Calpico and basic ramen it was about 30+ dollars. While this is a fun little experience, the price point doesn't make this a regular spot. Ramen special/ happy hours would be nice to have. Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $30–50 Recommended dishes: Ramen Bowl, Soft Boiled Egg, Recommended Ramen Parking space: Difficult to find parking Parking options: Parking is unavailable Kid-friendliness: If you have young kids with you, it's probably not the best fit. It's all single seat booths so you're all dining independently. Older kids might enjoy it though.

The interior is stylish with a blend of classic and modern decor — cozy lighting, elegant furniture, and a comfortable dining environment. The food was delicious: fresh seafood, well-prepared steaks, and creative appetizers. The flavors were rich and the presentation very thoughtful. The staff were friendly and attentive, making recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed. Service was timely, though during busy times there was a slight wait. The location is convenient, close to major transit hubs, making it easy to reach. It’s a great spot for dinner, date nights, or catching up with friends. The vibe is upscale but not overly formal, so it strikes a good balance. Overall, 132 W 31st St (Pennsylvania 6) is a strong choice if you want a memorable meal in a pleasant setting. I would definitely return and recommend it to others. Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3

I went in around 3-4pm and had no lines and the restaurant was mostly empty. However it still took a while for me to be seen to and seated. Once I wasseated, the service was very quick and attentive. The ramen is very very good and definitely worth the trip to eat the ramen. However I'm not sure if it's something worth waiting over an hour for so I definitely advise going during the off peak hours.

You wait outside hopefully in nice weather. Once you're in. You're in a single booth so going with a large group won't be what you expect from a normal table. Food takes a small wait but very very good. Staff is beyond great andyou can't tip. If anyone deserves a tip it's these workers. Don't miss it.
