I’ve been to Tsurutontan a few times already in various locations including Union Square and Midtown next to Rockafeller Center. When this Japan udon chain first opened in Manhattan a few years ago, there was a massive line because it was the first international location in the USA. The food was outstanding back then, and now it’s gone down a little in quality but still pretty good. This restaurant is known for having mammoth sized udon bowls which will most definitely satiate your appetite.

Pretty good. No Korean rice wrap, but meat quality was good.

It’s right across from the Los Tacos place in Chelsea Market. Got the Korean ramen, and it was abysmal.

This place is pretty bomb and NO TIP NEEDED! Would come back here again. The crust was really good.

Just ok and also cheap sushi. Not great. Don’t trust people when they say this is good sushi.

Spawned off LA’s Sugarfish. Cheap 6 piece hand rolls. $32 includes tax, tip, and a Mexican coke. Still room for dessert unfortunately.

Another omakase. Decent sushi place. Fast in/out in 20 minutes. $58 total. Got an extra toro/uni hand roll which added another $20ish.

Pretty good bento boxing place. A little pricey but no need to tip.

It’s an Omakase. Michelin 1 star. Very good for the price. Got sake pairing + sushi + EXTRAS… only $220 per person. The lychee sorbet was awesome.
