Very nice place. We love coming here. I ordered Set C it was delicious. Please try their pig ears if you like crunchy. Sushi were not bad. Will try next time their ramen.

Very authentic food and vibe. Ambience feels like an authentic Japanese cafe, and their signature lucky cat ramen was quite enjoyable as well. Home made like noodle, delicious pork belly and luxurious broth. Overall, lucky cat was a lucky find!

This is an excellent place to get a good bowl of ramen. There were a lot of Japanese items on the wall that gave the whole place an authentic izakaya ambiance. I went with a couple of friends and we all got the ramen and drinks. I had the Lucky Cat ramen. It was delicious. The chashu pork pieces were soft and would melt in your mouth. They do have options if you are vegetarian and/or don’t eat pork. The broth was savory and spicy. I could’ve eaten two bowls it was so good. The service was great and the staff was friendly. The beer on tap came in chilled glasses.

This area of the city is highly saturated with ramen restaurants but this one is definitely one to visit. The ambiance is the winner for me. You walk in and it feels like you just no longer in Midtown NYC. The food was good. I enjoyed my Ramen. It was a creamy version with thick noodles and shrimp. The shrimp was really overcooked but overall, the flavors made up for it.

The hot and spicy Lucky cat ramen always the right choice for the cold night. The Ika geso also crispy and yummy.
