Tatsu Ramen has not been open lately

The Tatsu Ramen location at 167 First Ave. has been closed for the past month-plus ... signs on the storefront between 10th Street and 11th Street note a closure for renovations.

An EVG reader who lives nearby hasn't seen any activity inside for weeks... with the mail piling up ... 
There isn't any mention of a closure — temporary or otherwise — on the restaurant's social media properties. The East Village outpost is also no longer listed on the Tatsu website. (The three L.A.-area locations remain open.) 

We reached out to find out if/when this space will return.

The Southern California transplant opened here in a competitive ramen market back in July 2018.

    It’s probably gone. I don’t think the pandemic and dining rules were kind. Definitely not renovations, it opened just a few years ago.

    It's definitely gone. The changes in the layout were not a good idea at all. And their 2 tables outside on a crooked sidewalk could not be called an outdoor dining really. Pity, it was a good place.

    I picked up food from here a few days before they closed for "renovations". It was a huge mess; I waited over an hour for a pickup order after having placed it 40 minutes before that. The quality has been going downhill since just before the pandemic and the staff didn't seem to be very attentive. There were about 7-10 delivery drivers also waiting for delayed orders. They are definitely gone.

    Cannot believe they're gone. I know I'm three years late, lol, but they were my favorite ramen in the city. Had a craving for ramen today and wanted to go, sad to hear they're gone.
