If you are looking for a comforting, cozy, relaxed place that serves up AMAZING, no frills ramen and eats, THIS is the place!! Highly recommend the tonkatsu + ajitama add-on (marinated soft boiled egg) with spicy oil on the side so you can make it as hot as you want to. One of the best ramen I’ve had in NJ by far! The staff is awesome and our waiter was busy but always acknowledged us and attended to whatever we needed. Keep up the great food and service!!

Menya has ruined all other Ramen for us! We drive 30 minutes just to have their amazing Ramen! It's flavorful and delicious! The vegan kimchi is the best!

Ramen has to be one of my favorite foods and I love the unique flavors Menya brings with their use of charred corn, red onions, and kimchi. So excited to go back and turn more people into fans of this place. The staff was also super friendly and kind. 10/10 service.

My friends and I always come back here for their spicy ramen because it slaps. We got the $50 deal with two bowls of ramen and three appetizers. Totally worth the price. Servers were kind. There is a high table where we got to see the chefs prep the food in front of us. Great place to eat with friends and family.

I loved this place! The staff were welcoming and kind. When we got there, it was pretty empty but quickly became full of people. We loved everything! The way the fried squid was made was unexpected, wasn't of thing! The fried chicken was my fav! Overall had a great experience and definitely going back!

Son, daughter and I stopped in for a hot lunch on a cold rainy day. Read some great reviews and a hot bowl of ramen sounded just right for the weather. Parking is on the street, but I could see a lot behind the building, maybe a city lot for patrons of these shops. Nice warm and inviting restaurant, with a glass back wall and counter top to watch the staff build your ramen or other dishes. Seating was ample and they have a wall of photos - I guess of past guests. We had two appetizers - gyoza with kimchi and beef - I believe five pieces and some dipping sauce. Tasted good, not spicy. 2nd app was Karaage or Japanese fried chicken. Nuggets of fresh fried boneless chicken with some Japanese mayo and green onion - nice and crispy and hot. Plenty to share among 3 adults. We had one spicy miso tonkotsu and classic shio ramen bowls. All, were piping hot broth and noodles. Plenty of noodles, a nice large slice of chashu pork, scallions and other veg. The class ship had ad'l bamboo slices, fried garlic and ginger chips on the edges. The dishes were hot, but not spicy. Staff were very attentive, brought a pitcher of ice water to the table and checked in on us. The owner was nearby and we showed him our appreciation for the hot dishes. Definitely worth a trip if you want a bowl of hot ramen noodles.

Yummy. I wish the Blistered Shishito Peppers is spicy version instead of only tasted salty, wish the shoyu comes with egg and also wish the ramen noodles comes with a little more soups I think the man is the owner and he is very multitasking and efficient! Cooking, serving and packing! Cute lil store can be a little noisy and pack when the restaurant is full of customers.

Great service and great food in a local spot. It's a small cozy ramen spot that was full when we got there around 6:30pm. We waited less than 10 mins to get a seat and there was only 1 other person waiting to be seated after us. First time here and the server gave us recommendations and answered our questions about the menu. We ordered the couples set since we wanted to try a few things on the menu. It came with 3 appetizers and 2 entrees. Food was so delicious that we will be returning. Thank You for serving us!

I went here last week with a group of friends. We were told to arrive early and there would be plenty of seats. I waked in around 5pm on a Saturday and the place was empty! It was perfect. One of the owners was there and he moved tables to fit all 11 of us. It seemed like we rented out the place for ourselves! We all got something different from the menu. I got the Vegan Kimchi Ramen with the kimchi on the side. I am glad I did that because the kimchi was spicy but I gave it to my friend who loved it! Slowly, other guests arrived at the restaurant and filled in all the tables around us. There were also food delivery workers coming in to pick up food. This little place was packed! We would definitely come back to this ramen house soon. I would love to try the other vegan ramen bowl that they had!

This place is the best ramen I've had in the area! Nothing like the spicy miso ramen and the karaage is the best I've ever had. The service is also very fast and attentive. The place is super cozy and cute. Highly recommend!

When I'm sick, I have 2 go to items:1. Moms chicken noodle soup2. A good spicy RamenMenyas Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen did the trick this week. It was so good I ordered twice! - The broth is quite flavorful. It's got a great kick, although I would recommend the side of homemade chilli oil for a little extra spice. *** The only con I would say is the amount of broth. The ramen cost $19. It was $8 for the extra portion of broth. They could have definitely provided more broth, but the quality is very good.- The noodles are perfect, wavy, and thin cut.- The pork was very tender. Not chewy. Perfectly portioned.- The takeout packaging is great - everything was well separated for ease of reheating!I found them over uber eats! You can get their delicious food without needing to leave the house. The perfect remedy to get you back on your feet!

This is a restaurant where food is served and a group of people brought a dog in, inside a stroller. Pets should not be allowed in restaurants or where food is served.
