We had the pork bunz and the shrimp dumpz. Both were delicious and the service was very quick!! Great addition to the area!!

The chef brought Ramen to a new level!!! Great flavor, awesome taste, best value. Nice work Vibe & Slurp.

I went for dinner last night with my family. we had pork belly bao buns, coconut shrimp bao bun, chicken dumplings and pork belly, bbq rib tip and chicken curry ramen (3 different ramen bowls). Each dish was amazing! All we could say for quite some time following was "that was SO good"!

Directions to get the Vibe N Slurp was wrong, I updated the Google maps to hopefully give future customers an easier time if it's the first visit.Small shop, good vibes, quality food, higher price than expected and staff was nice. I recommend for a nice unique date or hangout. Extra money your spending is better than going to restaurant chains.

I ate at this place for the first time today with my friend and it was AMAZING. We shared the pork dumplings and coconut shrimp buns for appetizers; I had the curry shrimp ramen and she had the brasserie beef ramen. Everyone was super friendly, especially our waitress Jenny. An overall unique and delicious restaurant that you should try at least once!

Green tea wasn’t actually green tea it was an herbal blend with chamomile and turmeric with green as a base so be careful! The ribs weren’t described as they were on the menu, the nice thing was they didn’t have a very strong meat taste which is probably due to ginger in the marinade, but they were a bit chewy and hard to eat. I don’t recommend the jerk ramen, way too salty, the uncooked mushrooms and square carrots were a bit tacky with their presentation and reminded me of Top ramen. Shrimp was seasoned way too strongly for me and some still had their shell on. I was able to have a few bites before I called it quits. The oxtail ramen had great broth but there was too much fat attached to the bone. The main thing that was extremely distasteful is that the owner was making fun of customers with the waitresses at the bar, mimicking their words and accents and openly yelling at customers to “get out of his restaurant” when they left… I was sitting at the bar and I have no idea if he knew that we could all hear them right in front of us. Honestly left me sick to my stomach, I’ve never been to a place where the owner was so hostile and negative. Not sure if it was due to race or what (which is honestly what it felt like), but as a “Japanese Fusion” ramen place that seems hypocritical. Basically mediocre food with a nasty owner. Not a good look.

Oxtail bao buns are a MUST. While the music matches the vibe, we sat next to the speakers… my dad was jammin’ to Nas, but wish it was slightly lower in volume. Definitely will be back for more!

about time TR has its own ramen spot -- fantastic little place and glad to have been recommended to it by a friend to check it out -- closest one i used to go to was in freehold .. I checked out the place today with a friend and there were about 5 ppl waiting when we got there at 6pm but we were just a party of 2 so they sat us right away towards the back door which was fine -- the service was fast as well and courteous and I knew who the owner was who himself stopped by a few times to check if everything was ok and to our liking -- definitely was in terms of service.the food -- apps (we had veggie gyoza and bao buns with tofu) and each had a bowl of ramen afterwards -- the apps were fantastic -- I myself am very picky when it comes to eating tofu (even as a vegeterian) but damn --- this place's tofu was insanely delicious! one of the best ive ever had and those places are extremely rare to say for me -- will definitely return for just those apps ...the ramen bowl i had was curry vegeterian ... this is where the 4 stars instead of 5 comes in -- I ordered it without egg specifically as I do not like egg in my ramen -- but lo and behold --- it comes with an egg -- (which i ultimately gave to my friend) .. but it wasnt a complicated request to follow through --also the curry ramen was good but the broth was a bit too salty -- at first sip of it .. i could taste the overbearing portion of salt to it -- I understand that most curry ramen bowls use a paste for flavoring -- but the places where ive had curry ramen bowls for vegetrians before were never this salty -- It got to the point that I was unable to enjoy the broth alongside the ramen and other vegetables because things were so saturated in salt -- For this reason and the egg mishap -- 4 stars.Price wise -- reasonably priced for what the atmosphere, service and location provides -- not a wallet buster :)I will definitely return with other friends and try out other dishes along with the same apps .. bc damn...that tofu... <3 :)

I've been wishing for a ramen shop local to me for years and Vibe N Slurp has delivered!!! Great food and atmosphere, friendly staff and an absolutely chill environment. Do yourself a favor and get there asap for some killer ramen!!!

Food was excellent, delicious, and great punches of flavor !!! Service was good, the waiter was very inviting and polite. Was a very upbeat and warm welcome from staff. Will be back again, the bao coconut shrimp and pork tacos were amazing !!!! Soup was packed with flavor very yummy!
