HinoMaru Ramen

"I’m really picky about my ramen, but this one was real good. Loved the shishitos, too"

"It’s a great experience. The ambiance and the atmosphere is very welcoming and charming. Amazing food and service. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is perfectly cooked and tasty. It’s recommended for their prices it’s 100% worth it."

"Every item from the well worn iron teapots to the ginger tea to the ramen itself bleeds aade by hand flavor that's incredibly hard to find in New York at affordable prices. This Ramen restaurant pulls it off in spades though. The staff are incredibly polite with good suggestions. The broth is flavorful and rich, tasting of slow simmered stock instead of cheap bullion, with well rounded subtle flavors instead of an over reliance on MSG and salt. Excellent portions and very affordable pricing as well. The tea selection, while simple is very well made. The ginger tea was incredibly smooth and fruity; the matcha steeped with actual leaves instead of the normal powder affair. Overall a must go for food in Astoria, I can see why this place spent time on the Michelin guide."

"Perfect ramen 40.774964 -73.909116 Just at the end of the N/W subway on Ditmars Boulevard, this casual Astoria noodle bar headed by chef Koji Miyamoto proudly displays its 2019 Michelin star and its earlier 2017 Bibi Gourmand. In May 2023, the signature house-made tonkotsu shoyu ramen (Kagoshima style) with pork, kikurage, menma, scallion, red ginger and roasted garlic ($16) swims in a rich and creamy port bone broth with seasoned pork. The flavour is really well balanced between a little spicy and red ginger and roasted garlic. It evokes memories of Japan. So delicious. Far from home, Hinomaru serves excellent ramen. Highly recommended."

"5/5 stars! Drinks, appetizers and ramen were delicious. Great for a lunch/dinner meal specially for the winter. Would definitely go again! Also very busy."
