Neighborhood Ramen is a small, casual ramen shop located in Philadelphia's Queen Village, known for its dedication to authentic Japanese ramen made from scratch. This BYOB counter service restaurant, often described as cozy and inviting, offers a limited but flavorful menu that includes classic ramen varieties like shoyu and tonkotsu, along with a few sides, creating a warm atmosphere that attracts a loyal following despite the area's more upscale dining options.​

Culinary experts, Jesse and Lindsay of Neighborhood Ramen wanted to combine their passion for the art of making ramen and their love of the city of Philadelphia. Jesse and Lindsay collaborated with Kyle to bring their walls to life with Kyle’s illustrative graffiti style creating a very punk rock, skate shop vibe.
