The Best Restaurants In West Harlem & Hamilton Heights

"This small Japanese spot offers more than 10 varieties of ramen, from the creamy, pork-based tonkotsu to an all-vegetable option. But there are almost as many “dry” and even cold noodle choices too, along with plenty of lunch specials (braised pork belly with a fried egg and pickled ginger over rice is $14) and a great Happy Hour. As a bonus, the eat-in counter is perfect for a quick, solo lunch—or any other time that eating a bowl of ramen in silence while reading your phone sounds right." - the curious uptowner, sonal shah
