What it is
Tampopo Ramen is a ramen restaurant and sake bar in Hudson Heights. It spent a decade at 1 Bennett Ave before moving a few blocks to 823 W 181st St. Its own website says the old shop closed after the weekend of April 24 to 26, 2026, and a community post dated May 7, 2026 reported the restaurant open at the new site with a bigger space and new options, starting with dinner service.
Who it’s for
The Infatuation’s 2023 guide described it at the old address as a place that works for a solo dinner, a date, takeout, or drinks with a friend, and recommended the pork buns and spicy miso ramen.
Standout details
Hours listed on its website: Monday to Thursday and Sunday noon to 10pm with the kitchen closing at 9:30pm; Friday and Saturday noon to 11pm with the kitchen closing at 10:30pm; happy hour 5pm to 6pm. The site says the Bennett Ave space was the restaurant’s home for ten years and thanks neighbors for making it a community.
Honest verdict
A reliable neighborhood ramen spot that has been through a recent move, so some details have changed. The Infatuation write-up was about the old location; on a new opening, reservations and delivery were reported to be unavailable at first, so confirm what is offered now.
