Parking: The paid parking lot is a hassle. The terminals you pay at are in desperate need of maintenance. Wouldn't read cards, would restart once you tried to pay. It was annoying and a bad way to start the afternoon.

Very good ramen! Not the best, but definitely quality. The broth is very good, the meats are a bit chewy, but can sometimes be expected with those cuts.This place has - phenomenal atmosphere.They seem to try to come up with some creative cocktails as well. Including spiked boba, (which was not my cup of tea) no pun intended, but was still good. I’d just prefer my alcohol separate, but worth the try nonetheless.Shim was a great server.

I love this place, I most recently went to dine in for lunch and the services absolutely spectacular, cocktails are amazing and it really is a great place to eat. I don’t think there’s anything on that menu that’s bad. Highly highly recommend.

This place is a must try if you want Pho, Bao Buns or Ramen.It had great choices and even better food. The KFC bao buns were amazing.The ramen was not as good as the Pho so I would recommend trying that out first.The mango lassi drink with alcohol was okay!

Wow! This new addition to the abundance of West Hartford center restaurant scene fits in so well. Mecha Noodle Bar opened around May 2022 and was packed in like sardines last evening. I was impressed with how well the crew handled the lines. This was my second time eating here - and I brought my BFF this time who loved the place. Our server had personality plus! I loved how quickly our food arrived- hardly any wait! I will go back. There are at least three other Asian cuisine spots nearby, yet MACHA had the crowds! Go MACHA NOODLE BAR!

No wonder the place was packed, the food and service was great. I had the Pho King with some add ons and left with a smile and a full stomach. The vibe was great and the music on point.
There was just something about that Ramen soup that's didn't connect. It was chicken base soup with a fish taste. The noodles were not very soft but relatively stiff and chewy. The rice had bacon in it, and it took over the entire flavor profile of the entire dish. We walked out for $80 for two souls, rice, and some bars. The music playing was also very loud. It wasn't conducive to conversation and relaxation. Just really did not enjoy either the food or the experience.

Very nice Asian food. American style, but taste great. Service was great. The waitress was fun. Ambiance is nice with all the wood.

Such a nice little surprise!!We stopped in here awhile ago on a cold day for a quick lunch and it did not disappoint.First of all love the stylish yet casual atmosphere. Lively but still tidy and clean with cozy lighting.Our server was so kind and just attentive enough. The tonkotsu was rich and warmed me up while my partner loved the Bao buns.We left completely satisfied. 10/10.
Great food and service! The KFC Bao was SO good!
