Fresh off 1 hour on the treadmill at 10.5 incline and 3.3 speed to sweat out the sins of the night prior, I found myself craving ramen. I wiped the sweat from my dark brown eyes that are slightly too big for my face and remembered how someone commented on a TikTok I made about Momofuku, saying Minca was the better ramen choice in EV.

Good ramen at a cash-only establishment in East Village. Definitely satisfies the ramen craving but was a little disappointed after reading several reviews saying it’s the best ramen in Manhattan. Yummy but felt it needed more umami. The meat was tender. I loved the hole in the wall vibe it has

The waiter was very friendly and very accommodating to one of my friends dietary restrictions. I took her recommendation of the regular spicy ramen and it did not disappoint. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the broth was very flavorful, rich and fatty but not too salty. The chashu was done very well and melted in my mouth effortlessly. The gyoza were below average and seemed like an afterthought so I would just go for the ramen/toppings. Will definitely come back to try their other ramen .

I am happy this place has big portion bowl. My friend ordered a dry noodle. He was happy it came with kimchi. I ordered the TanMen bowl. The portio was substantial. I was full and satisfied. The broth was great, not too salty. The meat was tender, and I like the vegetables. I would definitely eat it again

i ordered their tonkotsu ramen (pork bone broth). overall the dish was pretty authentic and tasty to eat. the broth was rich and filling, although i typically prefer slightly more “pork flavor” in the broth. the noodles they used were thick and had a good texture (i prefer it slightly more al dente/harder than how they cook it). the chashu was very savory and tasty though slightly on the drier side. all in all i’d still highly recommend swinging by and giving them a try if you’re nearby!

Minca Sio. My absolute favorite Ramen in NYC. I’ve been coming here and their, now closed, sister restaurant Kambi for over 13 years and it never disappoints!

Great ramen. The broth, the noodles, and the tender pork belly. Of the places I’ve been to, their menu is the most reasonable (for Manhattan) and also the most delicious. The broth’s consistency was heavy enough to stick well with the noodles. The flavor was tasty and not too overwhelming. I drank the soup all the way through. The pork belly was tender and melted in your mouth. It wasn’t all fat either. The shrimp gyoza are also amazing.

The pork broth ramen was quite good. Strong in pork flavor and quite viscous indicative of the long boiling time. Their signature ramen Miso with roasted garlic ramen was okay. But it was quite viscous too. As viscous as the pork broth. It would be better had it contained more ingredients like the fungus or bamboo shoot in it for both.

One of the best ramen I’ve had. The broth has so many flavors in it. Definitely worth returning and trying all the ramen on the menu.
