SORAI
Small Japanese noodle shop dishing out bowls of ramen and other basic fare at a long counter.
Expect a warm, easy crowd — busy enough to feel alive, calm enough to talk. It's built for meeting people — solo arrivals do fine here.
Prices aren't listed, and the restaurant runs → late. You'll find it at 1435 2nd Ave in Manhattan — the surrounding blocks carry the same energy, so the night doesn't have to end at one address.
Set times, the crowd, how to get in, what's good on the menu — ask anything about Tabata Ramen.
