This is a great Japanese restaurant that lives up to its authentic roots to Japan. The food is delicious and the service prompt. The dumplings are soft and soupy, edemame are seasoned right and ice cream tempura is perfectly cooked. Will visit again.

Honestly pleasantly surprised with the quality of food here. We wanted to have a go at Tonchin but as it was too crowded, this was our alternative and it turned out super wonderful - to be honest a strong challenger to the Ichirans and Tonchins...Read More

Tried out this place due to it being just a couple mins walk from our hotel and we are glad we did. Awesome place! Owners are extremely friendly and the food taste great. The chicken kara-age and the tonkotsu ramen are to die for!

The food was amazing! My boyfriend and I love Japanese food and came to NY for vacation. In 1 week, we visited twice. The agedashi tofu as well as the kimchi were fantastic. Must visit!

"Really good" doesn't quite capture the feeling I left with after dining at Shokudo 34. It's more like, "genuinely impressed and already planning my return." The food was clearly prepared with care, and the flavors were spot-on. I'm already anticipating my next visit, which will...Read More

I had high expectations for Shokudo 34 and they were met. The kitchen produces great results and the place feels cozy. Their ingredients are clearly top quality. The whole staff demonstrated warmth and guidance. This restaurant feels like it was made for me.

For my vegetarians out there, the vegetable miso ramen was amazing! Even my non veg partner loved it. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and friendly. The ambience was intimate and cozy, which I liked. Would definitely visit again!
