Tucked in the heart of the East Village just steps from Union Square, Kamisama Ramen is a pilgrimage for ramen purists. Named after the Japanese word “Kamisama”, meaning “god”, this spot pays homage to the divine art of ramen-making, honoring both its spiritual roots and soul-satisfying flavors. Here, ramen is sacred.
Grab your $39 pulse (a $74 value) for a 2 Course Dinner For Two that includes 1 Starter, 2 Entrees, and 2 Sakes or Beers to balance out your delish eats.
Kamisama is one of the very few ramen-ya in New York that specialize in Jiro-style ramen, a cult-classic style born in Tokyo and known for its unapologetically bold flavor and recurring features in anime shows. Think massive bowls, mountains of noodles, rich umami-laced broth, and thick cuts of meat that melt in your mouth.
Start with iconic riffs like Takoyaki; deep fried pancake balls with octopus and bonito, or perhaps Spicy Wings for some heat. Move onto the Spicy Jiro Ramen, finished with a fiery chili oil and your choice of crispy fried chicken or luscious pork chashu. Or dive into the Tonkotsu Jiro, a creamy, rich powerhouse that sticks with you long after the last bite. There's also the Gyu Donburi, a rice bowl topped with thinly sliced beef simmered with tender onions, soy, mirin, and egg.
Sake flows, slurping is celebrated, and noodles run wild. It’s comfort food straight from a Tokyo diner, designed to hit all the right notes...
At Kamisama Ramen, unearth a gem hidden away like a cherished secret in the East Village and applauded by critics at The Infatuation. It's an essential stop for ramen obsessives in search of deep authenticity and unmatched flavor.
Named after Kamisama, the Japanese word for “god,” this spot is the real deal. Kamisama Ramen channels the spirit of old-school Tokyo ramen shops, where every bowl is built with reverence, intention, and a serious respect for tradition. Here, every bite is lovingly crafted and fiercely bold.
Jiro-style ramen is the star here. It's a legendary style born from Tokyo’s back alleys and known for its maximalist approach. We're talking rich garlicky broth, handmade thick-cut noodles, and slabs of meat. The broth is a mind-melting tonkotsu-shoyu hybrid, simmered until it’s creamy, fatty, and laced with roasted garlic.
Noodles are dense, rugged, and made in-house to soak up every ounce of flavor. Toppings are layered on with intention, be it shredded cabbage, crunchy bean sprouts, fresh garlic, pork fat, or those unmissable chashu cuts that are equal parts tender and indulgent.
Expect modern takes on Japanese comfort food, made with local, high-quality ingredients and plated with precision. Inside, the vibe is minimal, warm, and focused. Clean lines, soft lighting, and a buzz that hums with anticipation set the stage. Sake is poured with care and every dish reminds you why this place has a loyal following.
