“Trust me – nothing feels more comforting on a cold winter day in New York than sipping a hot sake on a tatami mat.”

“The store front is unique and markedly Japanese with the paper lanterns, paintings, and wooden window frames.”

“Above the average quality Japanese comfort food that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.”

  1. The ramen and cooked food are really great. The sushi average – small pieces, not very flavorful. We asked about the ramen and the mononoke special ramen is pretty much the same recipe as their predecessor Saporo (it's tonkotsu ramen).. It's really good rich broth. Packed with toppings, tender flavorful chiasu, boiled egg, corn, etc.. all for $12. Service was sketchy. We waited a very long time to place our order and we waited a very long time for our bill as the server forgot we asked for it.

  2. Blessing in disguise that the Momofuku line was at the door. When I yelp searched nearby ramen alternatives, Jintan came up.

    Such a GREAT spot, cheaper for ramen as well. Loved the beef and tofu. Their sushi is fresh as well!

  3. This place is not labeled with a name, but it catches your eye immediately – the outside looks like restaurants in Japan with paper lanterns and wooden screen windows. The outside always incited my curiosity, so I finally walked in one day to look at the menu. The actual address of this place is 164 1st Ave.

    I got ramen there with a friend – good broth and nice pieces of meat for a place that's not dedicated as a ramen shop. Service was great and they let us sit there as long as we liked. Would come back again to try their sushi.
