Jun-Men Ramen Bar
Asian Restaurant in ChelseaOur Highlight
The Jun-Men is one of the best restaurants for ramen in the city. By the way, Jun-Men means “noodles, straight up”. The secret of a really good ramen dish is the broth, which is sometimes reduced for hours and in the end is really “concentrated” and delicious. Absolutely sensational and once you have tasted it, you will understand why we rave about it so much.

Ramen Danbo
Asian Restaurant in Park SlopeSmall and unassuming from the outside, Ramen Danbo is probably the best restaurant in Park Slope for ramen lovers. The Japanese chain only has three locations in the USA, one of which is in Brooklyn. It doesn’t get more authentic than this! And you can choose how strong you want your broth and whether you want soft or firm to the bite noodles. The prices are also more than fair for New York. There is seating at a counter and a few tables as well as outdoor seating. The restaurant is popular. Be prepared to wait for a table.
