"Okay, I just got back from Ajimi and I had to immediately write a review because this place is fantastic. Seriously, every single thing we ordered was great. The highlight for me was hands down the Ajimi Kuro ramen. I could eat that stuff every day. It was just perfectly savory and delicious. If you go, you HAVE to get it. What really blew me away, though, was the value. The food was exceptional, and the portions were actually really good. I was expecting less given the price, and other reviews so that was a huge plus. We definitely left full and happy! And finally, the service was on point. Our server was attentive and great, checking in on us when we needed something but never hovering. It was that perfect balance where you actually get to enjoy your meal without constant interruptions. Bottom line: If you're looking for fantastic ramen and great Japanese food that won't empty your wallet, go to Ajimi. You won't regret it!"

"Tasty ramen but a deliberate rip-off due to small serving size! Good flavor for their ramen broth though, reduced to achieve the flavors needed for a rich umami broth. The ramen noodle portions are small, which has been consistently underwhelming during my 4 plus visits here. Still, I return because the broth is good. The slow cooked pork belly did not have a rich taste and seemed like it had been boiled in liquid rather than slow braised, so it lacked the rich flavor. They torch-char it before serving which seemed unimpressive. I would have preferred a richer taste without the obvious hand-torch-char The noodles were satisfying and chewy. The black garlic oil ramen is a must-try. ..... Unfortunately my experience with the wait staff and servers have been disappointing. They are unwelcoming and outright unfriendly. A server even spilled the ramen on my lap while placing it down during one of my visits there and did not even act like they cared much. They only accept cash and will refuse credit card payments, yet they apply a tax charge onto the bill at the end of the meal which I am sure most can guess where that goes. The ramen dishes are priced $13.50-$16.50 (2025 prices), yet their portion sizes are small, which seems to warrant a price of 11, or 12 dollars, yet they still serve small portions compared to other ramen places. In other words, if you order only ramen for yourself you'll be expected to pay nearly 20 dollars for your meal with tax and tip. And while 20 dollars is not a lot for a satisfying bowl of ramen- you'll certainly agree that you'd want the right amount of soup and noodles."

"The restaurant is located in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. They prepare Japanese cuisine. They have a limited menu consisting of various yakitori(skewer), appetizers, salads, sashimi, ramen and drinks. I ordered the ajimi kuro which is a ramen with black garlic oil, poached egg, chashu, onion, scallion and bamboo shoots. It was good and flavorful. The takoyaki appetizer were six small octopus balls topped with sauce and bonito. The restaurant is cash-only. Friendly and helpful staff."

"My boyfriend and I went to this ramen restaurant, and we had a really good experience. The place was clean, the service was fast, and the staff was very friendly. It felt welcoming as soon as we walked in. The menu had a lot of options, and everything was affordable, which was great. We ordered ramen, fried rice, and teriyaki, and everything tasted amazing. The ramen was hot and flavorful, with a rich broth and perfectly cooked noodles. The fried rice was well-seasoned and had a nice texture, not too oily or dry. The teriyaki was tender and had a sweet, savory sauce that made every bite delicious.we didn’t have to wait long for our food. The portions were generous, and we left feeling full and satisfied. Overall, it was a great experience. The food was tasty, the service was excellent, and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely go back and recommend it to anyone looking for good ramen and Japanese food."

"Ajimi is one of the few top-quality ramen spots in the southern Brooklyn area. The Ajimi Kuro (black garlic oil tonkotsu ramen) is always a must-order. The rich, flavorful tonkotsu broth combined with the fragrant black garlic oil is mouthwatering even before you take your first bite. If you’re not in the mood for soup ramen, I highly recommend the Ajimi Mazemen. The salty and savory sauce, mixed with the well-marinated ground pork and noodles, is equally delightful. In addition to ramen, Ajimi’s appetizers and Kushiyaki skewers are also worth trying. This time, I sampled their new Maki Maki chicken mushroom rolls, which were excellently balanced—rich without being greasy or heavy. Most dishes here won’t disappoint. However, I wouldn’t recommend the new wonton noodle soup; the wontons were quite ordinary. Overall, Ajimi is a solid choice whenever you have a craving for ramen."
