January 2026 — Thank You for 2025 + What’s Next 🍜
Thank you for being part of the early days of Ramen NYC.
We’ve been active for just 4 months, and we’re already averaging 17,000+ monthly impressions from organic Google search, with steady month-over-month growth and zero paid ads. This has been powered by the community—people sharing spots, showing up to meetups, and spreading the word.
This year, we’re focused on building the most useful ramen map in NYC—more meetups, more reviews/photos, and better tools to discover great bowls.

New year, new bowls—see what’s coming next.

🎯 Goals for 2026
Here’s what we’re focused on this year:
- More meetups across NYC (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond).
- Chef spotlights (monthly): short interviews, signature bowls, and behind-the-scenes stories.
- Community Awards: vote on the best bowls and hidden gems each season.
- Ramen Passport challenges: badges, quests, and leaderboard shoutouts to keep exploring fun.
- More community reviews + photos so the map gets more trustworthy every month.
- Better discovery: staff picks, trending bowls, and curated lists on web + app.
- Neighborhood guides: tighter, more useful guides for specific areas of NYC.
