ramen is not for take-out!
This place is great! To all the people who complain about delivery area -- Ramen is not meant to be delivered because the noodles get soggy. They are making a concession by even delivering at all to all the lazy ignorant americans who do not understand the nature of japanese food culture, so be grateful instead of complaining!

Delivery Area Complaint
I live on 15th st and 3rd ave and go down to Astor Place all the time for ramen. Unfortunately, it doesn't like to come up to me. For some inane reason, Men Kui Tei won't deliver past 14th st, which is about a 6-7 minute walk from where they are located. Apparently, the extra 30 seconds to my apartment is too unbearable for their delicate feet. Suck it, Men Kui Tei.

Rude Staff but good food.
The staff here seems rather annoyed when you try to take out food, and they dont like to deliver very far, but other than that the food is quite tasty.

Should be a little more flexible...
I''ve tried (in vain) a couple of times to order delivery from this spot. The menu has a nice selection of basic soup and rice dishes that remind me of childhood. Additionally, the appetizers offered go beyond the usual gyoza and shumai most places have... But I've never succeeded in ordering anything because these people will not bend their rule and deliver past Avenue A. ( I live between A and B). I'll probably eat there sometime soon but I think their inability to be flexible (by about 100 feet) is ridiculous...

Rude staff but noodles are good
The waitress actually tsked us when she put the bowl of ramen in front of the wrong person and had to put it in front of whoever ordered it. They gave us change that implied we should give a cerain tip. The waitstaff acts like they are above you...Place definitely needs an attitude adjustment but the prices are good and I like the ramen noodles. Get something simple like the Shoyu Ramen (one of the lowest priced soups) and stay away from the wontons.

I Love This Place........
It has become a staple for me. I literally eat here at least 2 times a week. The staff is always friendly and courteous and the food is consistent. I have yet to be disappointed.. Headed there after work tonight.. Try the Gyoza and Sutamina Ramen with a Lime Hai

Good noodle place
This tiny place is a great place to go by yourself or with a few friends. The noodle are delicious and the fried rice are unbelievably good
