Tanma Ramen

This is a true gem! Youko is amazing, and so is the food she serves. Not only is it delicious but also filled with so much heart! A must!

I was unsure whether I’d like their miso ramen as I generally find pork and red meat too heavy for my tastes, but the broth was unbelievably rich and flavorful and light. The owners clearly put a lot of care into making it and it shows. The restaurant itself also has a very cute, cozy vibe. Very much worth the visit.

Very personal experience. Despite having just opened in October 2021, this place set a golden standard for Ramen and for Japanese cuisine and culture in the Hudson Valley. When I arrived, I was greeted by friendly wait staff and a very positive atmosphere. After being seated at the Ramen bar, we were offered drinks. The teas and authentic selection of other beverages was awesome. We ordered the Yaki Gyoza, shown in one of the images. They were steamed and crispy on the bottom and very flavorful. We also ordered tofu, which was soft and delicate and extremely flavorful. The miso Ramen was the star of the show. It was presented beautifully. But actually, the real star was the head chef herself. She was very passionate about her food and loved explaining how to properly eat Ramen and the tradition behind it. She loves talking about her recipes and experiences. She made you feel like you were the only people there. Unfortunately, due to covid, the seating is limited and it is reservation only but they do very impressive and fun Ramen take out. They give you all the components and explain how to cook and assemble it yourself at home. This restaurant deserves more publicity and when covid restrictions lessen, I can see this place as an awesome hang out spot where you can stand in a portal to Japan in the middle of downtown Kingston.

Some of the best ramen I’ve eaten outside of Japan. Delicious and complex broth, high quality ingredients, perfectly cooked noodles. Fried yaki gyoza appetizers were incredibly fresh with a refined dipping sauce. Menu is compact and simple, and the friendly proprietors offered careful advice on the best way to taste and savor the large steaming bowls of ramen. They even served up small scoops of green tea and red bean ice cream, on the house! To top it off, the meal was very reasonable priced. In Summary: Authentic Japanese ramen - highly recommended!

Absolutely incredible. I haven't been able to get my hands on ramen this good since visiting Japan in 2020. Well worth a visit! Wouldn't recommend if you are picky or have a lot of dietary restrictions but the menu does have a vegan ramen option. Very authentic ramen bar where you can watch your food being made while chatting with the incredibly friendly staff. Will absolutely be visiting again.

What an amazing and authentic spot! Came here with a couple friends after it was highly recommended and it did not disappoint. So awesome to have a family run business like this in Kingston - definitely come and try it yourself!

You can drink all of this rich yet light soup. It is very refreshing after eating. I was very surprised by the chef's calculated ramen. Tanmar Ramen is a delicious ramen that is good for the body.

This was my first time visiting Tanma Ramen in Kingston, NY. Youko (a family friend of mine) is the business owner of this intriguing restaurant, and the miso ramen is by far my favorite along with a side of kimchi. Although I made a reservation ahead of time, I still forgive Youko for missing out on my reservation. Lesson learned: ALWAYS make a reservation beforehand. I like to give this place more than 10 out of 10. It's just what I highly recommend to anyone who would love to try some authentic Japanese ramen.
