Savory, rich, hot, and flavorful ramen made to order in weha. I like the ticket system where you can place your order and pay at the counter and shop around while you wait. Highly recommend you buy some grocery items here too because the price is semi-comparable to 'A Dong ' (the next closest market) and much cleaner and friendlier, but smaller.

What Erik W doesn't like about Brooklyn Ramen/hachiroku:
Won't bash the establishment because the people working there were nice. However, I will never get ramen again from this place. Definitely not worth the $11.00+ they charge for it. Better off buying the ingredients yourself from the grocery store and making your own at home. Just my honest opinion... View all feedback.

Order extra noodles for your ramen if you can 't finish it to go, and this is just one of their hot food items, if you 're with friends grab a couple trays of the hot crispy Karag Fried chicken and seafood balls prepared on site to go with the bowl of deliciousness.
This is probably the most authentically Japanese ramen in northeastern Connecticut, but the quality is inconsistent and things could be better. Brooklyn Ramen brooklynramen.nyc/store is a company that has its ramen stands at various locations: Katagiri a Japanese grocery in midtown in NYC has the same set up as Maruichi. I'm pretty sure the soups and the toppings are cooked elsewhere and delivered to the various locations. On good days, the quality is pretty high, and comparable to ramen in NYC but not to ramen in Japan . On other days, the chashu can be very tough and chewy and the marinated egg is cold in the middle. Some improvements would be to get the broth-to-noodle ratio right there is always too little soup , to have the soup hotter it's often lukewarm , and to go back to using real soup spoons they went from using real soup spoons to plastic soup spoons to regular shallow plastic spoons .
Ramen was just ok. Spicy wasn 't spicy at all. Not terrible though. Noodles had just a bit of bounce to them. Curry on the other hand was amazing would have paid full price for that alone (you can add a mini curry on to your ramen for only $2.99). Rich smooth and flavorful, perfect amount of spice (not heat but spice) and the lotus root was a great bit of crisp to balance it all out. Star of the show!
I've been to Japan at least a dozen times and have eaten the best ramen there. Contrary to what a couple of others have said, this is about as close as you can get to the ramen in Japan. Check the Yelp reviews for Maruichi if you want reviews by more knowledgeable people.
