Ramen Open Late In New York, New York

Looking for ramen open late in New York? I've mapped the best late-night ramen spots in New York, New York โ€” ranked by Google reviews, broth quality, and hours.

New York has been at the center of American ramen culture for decades. The city absorbs global food trends and intensifies them, and nowhere is that more true than with Japanese noodle culture.

Midtown, the Upper East Side, Financial District โ€” ramen spots cluster wherever the late-night crowd flows. Sozai in Midtown is the kind of restaurant that makes you forget you're in Manhattan. Kin Ramen on West 56th is loud, fast, and completely satisfying after a long day.

Kuu on the Upper East is where I take people who think they don't care about ramen and make them believers. Susukino in the Financial District does late hours for the Wall Street crowd โ€” the noodles are handmade and the broth clocks in well over 12 hours of cooking.

How we ranked these restaurants

We ranked these 5 spots by combining Google review scores, total review volume, and activity signals to identify the most reliably excellent late-night ramen and Asian noodle options in New York, New York.
