Meijin Ramen in Manhattan really impressed us. We started with the karaage chicken — perfectly crisp, juicy, and delicious with the dipping sauce and lemon on the side. The spicy chili ramen had a bold, punchy broth with just the right amount of heat, balanced by fresh toppings and a jammy egg — definitely a standout if you like spice. The tonkotsu ramen was rich and silky, with tender slices of pork, black garlic oil for depth, and noodles cooked just right. Both bowls felt thoughtful and satisfying without being overly heavy. Great atmosphere, quick service, and quality ingredients across the board
