Food: ramen was so yummy!! I think it's the best I've had in nyc. The pork was also seasoned well. The egg was cooked perfectly. Black garlic oil added such a nice flavor to the broth. Takoyaki balls were delicious and had a lot of filling. Service: we were seated quickly and food was made pretty fast as well. Server was nice and attended to our water needs. Ambiance: clean restaurant. Nothing to complain. Good amount of seating and wasn't overcrowded.

Yummy chicken broth Good noodle The pork little bit too thick The boiled egg a bit too cook Good service Nice ambiance

Relatively good ramen spot with good quality ramen and okay atmosphere in restaurant. It can get a little loud and the service here is pretty slow though (there was only one person working as a waitress and hostess). We got the chicken karaage, which was pretty good not too salty, the susuru paitan, which had a nice light broth, and the deluxe, which has a much heavier garlic-y taste but was also pretty good. Overall, would recommend!

There are so many ramen place in nyc now and this place is one of the top on my list. I can taste the authenticity and creativity. We started with gyoza and it came in sizzling cast iron pan. Delicious! The spotlight should go to the ramen. We ordered Kuro and the special cold ramen. They are creative ramen that we would like to taste. And they do not disappoint us. The broth of kuro was rich with flavors. So yummy. And the chasiu was not the typical pork belly. It was smoked pepper pork. I really like it!! My husband had the special cold ramen, which I was skeptical. However, it blew my mind. The cold broth was flavorful and rich. Very delicious ramen, which I want to order for myself. This was my happy meal!!

Such a gem and a cozy ramen place. Came here today on a Saturday afternoon because was craving for noodles/ramen due to rainy/windy weather. We got seated right away and it got packed in one hour. We ordered fried chicken and takoyaki to start with. Both of the appetizers were great! Chicken was covered by cheese. We ordered the original ramen and miso ramen. I didn't really like the texture of the pork, ramen and soup base was great. Will definitely come back again.

My friend and I stopped by on a Monday afternoon. The restaurant feels tucked away and unassuming, but each table is filled the minute you come in. It feels like a homey authentic Japanese ramen joint. When we arrived on a Monday for lunch, there were 2 groups in front of us, but since we were only 2 people, we got our seats quickly. Parking was easy to find since we were fairly close to the residential part of Astoria. We sat down. Menus were simple to read -- only a few things to choose from, which is good. We ordered the pork gyoza, miso ramen, and a bowl of kuro ramen. The food came in a reasonable amount of time. The pork gyoza was fried on a small skillet that they bring to you. Hot, flavorful, and juiciness from the soup inside -- definitely a great pairing. I ordered the miso ramen -- the chashu pork was quite generous and tender, the chicken broth was flavorful with fats, and the noodles had the right amount of bounce that I enjoyed. The ajitama egg was soft and what I expected from an egg. All these different components made the meal quite fulfilling. I left full, but not stuffed. The service was great. It seemed like there was only one server and she was friendly, welcoming, and quick. Water was always filled. I would recommend coming here and will probably stop by next time to try the Susuru Paitan ramen. Something about the color of that broth entices me.

My partner and I were craving some nice good real ramen so we revisited Susuru! On a snow day at like 6pm they were pretty busy but they cleaned the table quickly and we were seated within ~10mins. This time I got soupless tantan and my partner got delux ramen. We also got gyoza for an appetizer!! Coming from Japan and being away from home, I am very grateful to have such an authentic ramen restaurant nearby! The food was delicious and especially the gyoza really reminded me of any ramen restaurants back home. My partner said the gyoza was the best he's ever had and the chashu in the noodle was again, nothing like what he's had before. And i agree, they are really really good. Inside has a nicely lit wooden accents in the restaurant. I love that they sometimes have Noren out there too!

Stopped by for quick lunch and delicious and quick it was! We risked it with a walk-in around 2 pm, and got lucky to get a table for five with a 10 min wait. The place is relatively small and has about five tables (which include three x 4 seater tables) Got straight to ordering which included Garlic Edamame ($7), Imo Tempura ($8), Gyoza ($9), Veggie Miso ($17), Kuro ($17), Tantan ($17), and Susuru Paitan ($16). All were delicious and I recommend getting all with Spicy Chili Oil ($1) if you enjoy spicy ramen! Service is quick and food arrives within 20 minutes. Noise levels were on the lower end and the staff is friendly and kind.

Susuru is a ramen shop on 36th Ave serving some of the tastiest noodle soup in Astoria. Service is prompt and speedy, and the food is delicious. The chew of the noodles, the mouthfeel, is an elevated experience. It's a small restaurant that gets busy during peak hours, but they move fast. They also conduct a brisk takeout business. I recommend the Deluxe ramen for an indecisive first-timer. There's a lot of deliciousness in that bowl, including the aromatic and flavorful black garlic oil. The tantan ramen will appeal to those seeking a spicier profile, though I found it to be on the mild side. For appetizers: takoyaki, karaage chicken, and gyoza are classic and satisfying options. Susuru operates at such a high level of quality that you can't go wrong following your instincts and ordering whatever sounds best. I also like that their selection of beer and sake includes interesting fare that you can't find just anywhere.

A nice ramen spot in Astoria. Small restaurant and there's usually a small waitlist during dinner. One server but they are efficient and food is worth it! Food: Gyozas - in such a small cute cast iron pan and fried so well. Oily, juicy pork! Takoyaki - also great presentation. I love how they are extra fried on the outside and soft on the inside with great octopus flavor. Tantan - not spicy but nice rich and slightly creamy flavor. Susuru Paitan - chicken broth, and good portion of meat. For both ramens, they add chopped raw onions to the topping which adds a nice flavor to the broth but for me personally, I did not enjoy the bites of raw onion. Love how they provide a whole soft-boiled egg that is cooked to perfection. Everything else: Service is friendly and efficient. The appetizers came out as they were ready and the ramen came out together which made it nice when eating with a group.
