The smile of a warm welcome, a friendly and calm atmosphere, fast service and always with a smile are the ingredients for preparing a fragrant dish, whether rice or pasta.The cooking is absolutely perfect, the spices are measured to perfection, the portion is generous, the value for money is very good. What other feeling than that of wanting to come back could arise from this encounter, as risky as it was happy?Very pleasant moment ?

This is by far my favorite ramen spot in the city. The spicy miso is UNBELIEVABLY GOOD.

Spicy miso is so good as well as the tonkotsu. The broth is amazing. Place is small with limited seating but I've never had trouble getting a seat at the window. Service is always quick.

Overpriced for what I got-the pork in my tonkotsu ramen was partially cold, and the gyoza were mushy on the inside, like they had been overcooked-or undercooked! Ramen noodles were overcooked as well. The ambiance was nice enough, and the place is clean. Service was fine, given that they seem to be sharing with the Tiki Room next door. Given the other reviews, I think I just had a bad experience. Might be worth another shot someday.

Quick, delicious ramen. Loved the tonkotsu broth; it was rich and almost creamy.

We stopped here back in October after an exciting adventure on the Freedom Trail. I forgot to leave a review back then but my friend and I were reminiscing about it just now so I thought I'd leave my thoughts. Delicious food, stellar service, beautiful atmosphere. 10/10

Very good ramen for a great price!We sat in the tiki restaurant and were able to order ramen. It felt strange to eat ramen in a tiki restaurant but the food was great ☺️

Amazing, unassuming little cozy spot! The owner/cook was kind and makes a mean ramen! Perfect spot for 2 for lunch or relaxed dinner. Order at the counter and find a stool kinda deal! Don’t listen to the Bostonian curmudgeons that say this place is bad! It doesn’t fit the typical Boston restaurant mold perfectly but it’s cozy and delicious all the same!

I've been coming here for lunch for 2 years now and its never disappointed. The chef is always kind and friendly. The Tonkotsu ramen always hits the spot. Highly recommend for quick, filling, delicious lunch during the winter.

I placed a to go order and to my surprise the Spanish gentleman tried to swindle me into tipping without my knowledge or consent. Pay attention when paying with credit cards be vigilant he's so comfortable doing it how many others he's done it to, telling me to sign the screen without looking at what I'm paying for astounding I certainly got a text receipt. Food is great I will pay with cash in the future.

I was visiting Boston for the weekend and knew that I wanted to try some ramen - so happy I decided to stop in here! Loved the spicy miso and the owner (I believe?) was so friendly and patient with my large group of family. Didn’t catch his name, but great service :)

Came here for a casual dinner with coworkers. There isn't a lot of seating inside so we sat on the picnic tables outside. Dashi Niku - very flavorful. The ramen was overcooked though. Overall, it was okay but didn't taste authentic. Gyoza - oddly I tasted butter so I think the gyoza is pan fried in butter. The gyoza was entirely fried but I'm more used to the bottom of the gyoza pan fried. The filling was flavorful.
