Enerugi Ramen — Restaurant in New York

My first time at Enerugi Ramen was with my GF as we are always looking for the best Ramen places. Enerugi was said to be a great Ramen place, so we decided to give it a try.

We started with the simple Chicken Karaage, which came with spicy mayo. The dish was great, with good quality chicken that was well fried, and the dipping sauce was really spicy. I highly recommend it.

Next, we ordered the Classic Shoyu Ramen and the Yuzu Ramen. The Shoyu Ramen was okay, but I found it a bit too salty. However, you may like it. On the other hand, the Yuzu Ramen with a clear broth was amazing. It refreshed our minds while we had it, probably because of the Yuzu and lime sour scents they provided. It's perfect against the summer heat. I highly recommend this one.

The Yuzu Ramen tasted like sour noodle soup with Chicken in my hometown in Thailand. If it came with fish balls, I would say it's absolutely the same.

Everything was great so far, but when I came back home, my stomach was cramping like hell. I wasn't sure why, but I assumed it was the fried garlic that caused this pain. However, this was only my opinion, as my GF was okay, and we shared the food, except for the fried garlic that only I had.

The atmosphere at Enerugi Ramen was great, with a clean and bright ambiance and light music playing in the background. However, the server quality could be improved. We finished our karaage within 5-10 minutes, but the empty dishes and small plates were left on our table.

I will definitely go back to Enerugi Ramen again, but this time, probably without the fried...

Simplicity still matters! My spouse and I have been coming here almost weekly for months now. In most reviews, I would write a short thesis on the reasoning and explanation of my stance on the ‘why’, but I’ll keep this one as simple as the experience.

I’m a Japan-head who has researched and explored Japanese culture, fashion, and cuisine for years now. These explorations have taken me from the Far East (the hub itself) to the NorthEast (mid-, upper-Atlantic). Enerugi stands out not because every second of the experience here aligns with Japanese tradition or culture, but because they have found a way to extract important elements and infuse them into a simple/straight-forward experience .. in a bowl.

Do come here if: you want an absolutely fantastic, full bowl (with one of the more interesting takes on varied ingredients including a passionate cha-shu approach).

Greenpoint already represents the ‘actualized’ measure of cuisine and established taste profile in Brooklyn/NYC. Enerugi proves this out yet again with a fabulous palette-celebrating experience for those ready to approach it as the culture would dictate: humbly,...

First time here. Lovely staff. Very friendly. I’m very critical about ramen spots. I have a love for ramen and so I don’t want to waste my time on bad ramen. That being said the ramen here is good. The broth was tasty, plenty of noodles, the chasu melted in your mouth. Pretty good ramen here in my standards. We did have some apps too. The takoyaki is what you’d expect if you’ve had it in nyc. Small, and tiny piece of octopus, if there’s one even in it. While the taste is there, this isn’t the best takoyaki. The okonomiyaki was not good. It was basically a doughy pancake. There was like no noodles or cabbage which is the base of what makes it an okomomiyaki. The sauce was there but really this was a huge let down. Maybe ours was just a bad dish of the night but no thanks. Their wings were nicely flavored, their karage was nice and crispy. The potato tots were just as you’d expect so that was good. Their buns were nice and plump with ingredients. They were not small like I’ve seen others do. Finally their gyoza was actually flavorful. Overall it was a decent experience and you should...
