The buta shabbu pork belly was ok I think when I tried my friends last year it was so good but this time around it was ehhh. Very Smokey from the pork belly , noodles were nothing special . The mushroom udon was very flavorful ! For apps : the wagyu skewers were yummy along with the karaage chicken

Love the appetizer. The chicken karaage was delicious but the spicy mayo sauce tasted very acidic so we ended up using the Buta udon sauce. Wagyu appetizer was tender and yummy. Seasonal mushroom udon - there was a variety of mushrooms in it. The broth was savory and the mushrooms were cooked well - had good texture. The udon was cooked perfectly. Overall, it’s delicious but I wouldn’t say it’s anything special. Just good udon. Buta shabu udon - very smoky pork belly but it wasn’t really seasoned, just tasted smokey. It came with udon, sesame dressing/sauce, cucumbers and the pork belly. Very simple but I don’t think it’s worth $23. The udon are thinner than the ones in the hot udon. Would come back tho

person i went with said the niku udon was best. the meat was really good but the soup tasted like beef jerky. would’ve like a little more herbs and veggies to join the conversation but still a good time. noodles fantastic as raku standard. tad over priced for soup and rice noodles, even for NYC standards. would only go back for a better reason next time. asahi hit

First time at raku and it was super good, the egg custard maybe won’t get again, but I get why people were lining up out the door for this. The hot udon in cold winter combo hit diff, we got the nabeyaki and it was 10/10

Can’t go wrong with raku - v reasonably priced and always consistently delicious the east village location has like double the seating, now takes reservations on resy, AND takes credit card look at them growwww Unfortunately despite it being like 6pm they were somehow out of all desserts including the frozen grapes they usually give w the receipt My birthday dessert will just have to be found elsewhere
