Tokyo’s Famous Ramen House Lands in NYC With Free Desserts, Games, and Boozy Specials
New Yorkers, get your chopsticks ready. A beloved Tokyo ramen shop is making its U.S. debut—and it’s not holding back. Yasubee Authentic Ramen will officially open its doors on September 25 at 253 W. 26th Street in Chelsea, bringing one of Japan’s most iconic noodle experiences straight to Manhattan.
For more than 80 years, Yasubee has been delighting diners in Japan with bold, flavorful bowls. Now, its first American outpost is about to give New Yorkers a taste of Tokyo without the long flight.
A Tokyo Classic Arrives in Chelsea
The star of Yasubee’s menu is its signature Tsukemen—a ramen dish where the noodles come separately, waiting to be dipped into a hot, savory broth.
Unlike a traditional ramen bowl, the chewy noodles soak up just the right amount of broth in every bite, making for a rich, interactive dining experience.
But that’s not all. Diners can also dig into classic Shiyo and Miso Ramen, or mix things up with small plates like steamed gyoza, karaage fried chicken, blistered shishito peppers, and chilled furikake edamame.
Drinks, Desserts, and Opening Weekend Fun
To wash it all down, Yasubee is rolling out a lineup of drinks inspired by Tokyo. Think Matcha IPA, Yuzu Ale, imported beers, and a handful of creative cocktails.
And because no grand opening in New York would be complete without a few perks, Yasubee is offering specials all weekend long. Expect:
- Free dessert with any entrée
- Buy-one-get-one drinks
- Fun games like rock-paper-scissors and odds-and-evens with staff for a chance to win small plates and prizes
From Tokyo to NYC
Once a historic ramen stop in Japan, Yasubee has now planted its roots in Chelsea, serving not just ramen but an experience. With its mix of authentic flavors, playful dining twists, and grand opening giveaways, the restaurant is shaping up to be one of fall’s hottest new food spots.
So whether you’re craving noodles, cocktails, or just a game of rock-paper-scissors with your server, Yasubee Authentic Ramen is ready to welcome you to the table.
