About
Afuri Ramen + Dumpling opened its first East Coast location in Williamsburg in June 2024, bringing the acclaimed Tokyo chain's signature yuzu shio and yuzu shoyu ramen to Brooklyn. The restaurant occupies a large, high-ceilinged space on N 11th Street with a bar, open kitchen, and ample seating that accommodates families and large groups alike. Noodles are made fresh in-house daily, just as in Japan, and the broth is crafted to highlight the delicate citrus of yuzu — resulting in a lighter, more refreshing ramen than most NYC options. Beyond ramen, the menu includes gyoza, karaage, sushi, rice bowls, and a cocktail program. A dedicated kids menu with crayons and child-friendly portions has made it a neighborhood favorite for family dining.
