Riki Izakaya
Went to Riki Izakaya or Riki Restaurant (Izakaya basically means Japanese gastropub). Overall was very happy with their ramen (had the usual pork belly – tonkotsu – ramen), their pancake with pork and seafood and their bitter melon stir-fry. My friend had the shrimp & egg udon and was happy with his choice as well. Pretty good casual place, and quite cheap for NYC. Tipping is not allowed here so the prices you see are what you pay.
