this place has changed a lot! and for the good, the menu has so many varieties of ramen, they truly captured the spirit of what it takes to survive NYC as a ramen restaurant. they have clearly labeled pork, vegan, and fish options. I had the Torigara while my friends got the Tsukemen and the XO Miso. They also did a great job with the presentation. The specials were great as well. I give it a 5 for food not necessarily because of taste (though it's above average) but for variety. I'll definitely need to come back.
