Za-ya - Broad Channel

This place is amazing…niboshi was BANGIN …karaage was BANGINI will be back.

Za Ya has the richest, yummiest Gyukotsu ramen in Brooklyn, and I suspect the city.Paired with some Kitaya sake, this is a must have, and it will heal your soul.Their Spicy Gyukotso Miso is very good too, albeit too spicy for my fragile constitution.Their sashimi platter is outstanding, but I think it's a summer thing. They do rotate some of the starters seasonally.The Karaage has GREAT texture, but I think the batter could use additional seasoning, since it's a little bland and the spicy mayo it comes with doesn't really do anything extraordinary. (I'll keep trying it in the hopes they'll listen, because it's still tasty).Operated by the owner (I think), this is a great local spot for residents of Bushwick and their guests, and its proximity influenced two apartment moves for me that's how much I love it.Front of house is very friendly as well!

The beef ramen was so greasy it was hard to enjoy. It was also under seasoned, as was the shoyu. The ambiance is nice but sorry to say the ramen was overpriced and not tasty. I’m honestly confused by all the great reviews because there’s so many cheaper ramen spots that taste so much better.

This Place is truly unique and I love it. I’ve been in the ramen industry for many years myself and I can easily say that this is one of the best experiences I’ve had in NYC yet. Thank you!!!

Loved this place, the food was delicious. Great customer service. The vibes were immaculate as well. Lowkey place in Brooklyn!
