" Sakai Ramen is worth the hype! I love the vibrant atmosphere and how friendly all the staff are. I tried their piping hot soup with a flavorful broth. The chashu was tender and definitely a highlight of the meal. I'd say this is a perfect spot to chill out after a day in town or just celebrate something with good food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakai Ramen is hands down one of my favorite dining spots on Staten Island! The authentic ramen here is top-notch, and the service is consistently amazing. I love that they have great options for both dine-in and takeout. I often order their gyoza alongside ramen, and it makes for a perfect meal. The staff is always friendly and helpful, which makes me feel valued as a customer. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a huge fan of Japanese cuisine, I was eager to try Sakai Ramen. I loved the vast selection of dishes to choose from, including their delicious chicken yakitori. The ramen itself was good but didn’t blow me away as I expected. The atmosphere was lively but peaceful enough to enjoy a conversation. I appreciate that they have a full bar, adding to the dining experience. I’ll definitely return to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful little ramen shop! I love their additional options outside of ramen, like the takoyaki and bubble tea. Great place to grab a casual meal with friends or just to enjoy some comfort food. I appreciated the clean environment and friendly staff, and I never leave disappointed. Definitely a place to check out. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing all the rave reviews, I finally decided to try Sakai Ramen and it did not disappoint! The ambiance was warm and cozy, perfect for a casual dining experience. I ordered the tonkotsu ramen, and the broth was creamy and rich—definitely one of the best I’ve had. The staff were attentive and provided excellent service. Highly recommend for anyone looking to satisfy their ramen cravings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to sample the ramen at this establishment given their reputation, but my experience was mixed. While the ambiance was nice and the staff friendly, the ramen left me wanting. I had their special, but it felt distinctly average in flavor and the portion was rather small for the price. I hope they can improve on this because the potential is clear. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I go to Sakai Ramen, I’m amazed by the quality. Their pork buns are fantastic, and the ramen has the type of broth that just warms your soul. The atmosphere is lively yet relaxing, making it a great spot for any occasion. I might have to try their izakaya menu next time, as I’m already inclined to go back. They do a great job maintaining high standards. " (*Curated Review*)
