Friendly staff. Our server Darius was wonderful. Totally recommend.
Best in this area ! Ramen hits the spot.
Great service and good food and a nice atmosphere. Rocky shrimp tempura , chicken karate ,and edamame fried tofu great . The chicken karaage don , nagomi shouu ramen and chicken shio ramen all very good . Very nice clean place with music , food, and good service we will be back
The food is exceptionally well presented and tastes good. My only complaint is that I did a takeout and when I got home discovered that my Gyozo was missing and the shrimp tempura was missing the rice
Excellent ramen place - this is a must try! Great food all around and really nice service.We had the burnt garlic tonkotsu ramen and vegetarian spicy miso ramen and loved them both. Perfectly cooked noodles in delicious broth. The only let down was the tofu in the vegetarian ramen which was kind of bland, but I don't fault them much for that. The vegetarian gyoza were pretty good.I really loved the black sesame ice cream! Very unique combination that isn't too sweet and not quite savory. You have to try it and maybe you'll end up like me buying several pints to take home with you. The tea is also good.They don't accept reservations but you can get on the wait list via Yelp.
My number 1 ramen restaurant in central Jersey. You must try their Miso Crab ramen (real crab meat!!) and Burnt Garlic ramen. The broth is so rich. If you don’t like the broth that heavy, you can try their Nagomi Shoyu ramen. The chicken broth is their signature broth. And the egg in the ramen is the best among all the ramen restaurants I visited. For appetizers, karaage, takoyaki, tofu nuggets all taste good. Recommend Ebi Katsu Shrimp Bao. So crispy!!! And the yuzu flavor make the bao another level! And don’t forget to have the black sesame cream brûlée as the desert!
Always delicious. The Don buri bowls are unmatched. The inside is very cute and the staff is nice and has good music taste. They have food options for all diets including vegetarian
Good ramen place in the heart of New Brunswick. Very friendly and attentive staff. Can get crowded! So get there early or place yourself on the waitlist before getting there.Had burnt garlic tonkasu ramen. Broth was rich but missing layering of flavors. Noodle was cooked well. Pork was the clear winner! Best ramen pork! Overall a B to B+ ramen place (which translates to 4/5 ⭐️).Did not try other menu items. Ample selection for a relatively small ramen place.Would recommend this place! Might not be a good place for family with young kids, unless the kids are adventurous.
The proof of any ramen-ya is always the quality of the soup broth and it’s ingredients. Noodles, although important, are secondary. Ramen Nagomi New Brunswick exceeds the mark on broth. As a seasoned traveler to Japan, I will admit that my expectations for ramen are quite high. Most ramen in the area including NYC never get to impressive in the broth department. Nagomi is a true exception.I ordered the miso crab ramen bowl and it was exceptional. The soup is rich with a pronounced miso flavor and the crab base is evident. The bowl is not overcrowded with fillers like bean sprouts, so the concentration is on the crab flavor and the thin straight ramen noodles. Included toppings are lump crab, kikurage mushroom, scallion, nori seaweed and ajitama, marinated lava egg. Green tea is extra, but I recommend it. They call it light green tea but it is really genmai cha, a green tea brewed with toasted rice… delicious.Although not traditional for a ramen shop, a multitude of other foods are on the menu. Agemono, (fried foods) and donbori rice bowls with toppings. Izakaya favorites like Karaage (fried chicken), Takoyaki (octopus fritters) and edamame (boiled salted soybeans) are available.One slight quibble was that my soup arrived with an ice cold egg right from the refrigerator in the bowl. The kitchen needs to warm the eggs a bit, otherwise it is like adding ice to hot soup.I look forward to returning multiple times for further tastings of this interesting and delicious menu.
So good! I love the ambiance and the diversity of the menu is great. Extremely cozy environment. Ramen is solid.
