Good hot noodle soup
I don't know from authentic Japanese, but I know I've been looking for a good hot bowl of ramen noodle soup since I started working in midtown 3 years ago, and I'm so glad to have finally found this place. I ate in once and took out once and had no problem with service, although when I ate in I could have done without the loud radio playing. The soups are slightly on the expensive side for lunch, but they are huge!

Delicious
This is a casual place to sit down, eat, and enjoy yourself after a long day at work (and you don't feel like getting your eardrums destroyed by the noise in the local bars). The food is very reasonably priced, especially given the area. Service is a bit on the weaker side, but that's expected given the casual atmosphere. I've gone a couple times after 9pm, so I can't speak to any lineups. But it's still lively then and there's no waiting lines. Definitely will go again!

Disappointing ramen
I tried the Hakata Ramen. Compared to the other NYC ramen shops, it just wasn't very good - no subtlety to the broth, chashu pork overcooked, not served hot enough, etc. My friend had the kimchi noodles and really enjoyed them, so I suppose this place is hit or miss. But why risk a miss when you can eat somewhere else?

Best Noodles in Midtown
Holy WOW!! These noodles are amazing! There is always a line out the doorfor tables or takeout. Had the shrimp gyoza and Hakata Ramen (pork ramen soup) my first timeso tasty! My second visit I had the Chicken Yakisoba, and I liked it even better. The noodles are tender, the veggies are fresh, hints of fresh ginger...delish. Trying the Menchenko next, and can't wait. Actually I am excited to taste everything at this gem of a spot.

Stick with the ramen
One of Midtown East's best kept "secrets!" I would stick with the Ramen's and soups as the other dishes are less predictable but still I have heard no complaints. It's always packed but I have never had to wait more than 10-15 mins.

Traditional Japanese Ramen
Traditional Japanese ramen. You can’t find so traditional ramen in NYC expect this place. Every time I must stop by here to enjoy their ramen. The only one problem is that I need to wait more than 30 minutes for a seat.

Good option in the area
This definitely isn't the best ramen/Japanese noodle shop in the city (for that, go downtown, maybe to Rai Rai Ken), but it's a great option to have for lunch in midtown. It's reliably good and a fair value, considering you can get a terrible sandwich or a salad somewhere else for similar prices.
