Ramen and Sushi was good but a bit pricey . I admit the taste was a lot closer to the real miso Ramen I ate in Japan compared to other places in Boston :)Great paintings

Lots of variety on the menu and available seating at 8 pm on Thursday. Service was fine but food quality is not there for the price point.

Visiting Boston for a few days and we had a great time here! I ordered the tonkotsu shoyu ramen along with the vegetarian mango rolls and they were so good! Atmosphere is also very vibey and the workers were very nice and accommodating. Would definitely recommend

I’m a bit of a harsh critic of ramen because I’ve tried so many, so this may be 5 stars for someone who either hasn’t had a lot of ramen or is just used to the 3-minute packet from the store.First, the sushi. The Itadaki spicy rolls were SO GOOD. I would come back just for these. I had them split with a friend as our starter. They were delicious dipped in soy sauce. I could eat two more orders of them easily as the whole meal.Second, the ramen. I was excited by all the options on their menu, but they’re not as generous with their portion as you may be led to believe. For example, if you order “marinated boiled egg” as one of the ingredients, you only get 1/2 an egg. To get the full egg, you need to order it twice.The broth was decent but I’ve definitely had better. My friend had the Shoyu base (soy sauce, not miso) and said it was very flavourful, so maybe try that instead.There was a lot of ramen noodles in the bowl though, so that was good! I just would have liked more toppings.

This place probably has one of the best summer cocktails around! Loved the sushi and the dumplings too!

Food is fine and service was mostly good even though the kitchen was quite slow during a relatively empty weekday night. However, the prices they ask can't be justified with the menu items we tried. Okonomiyaki was the only standout, pork katsu curry was ok, rolls were not good.

Was a great experience! Ordered a drink, was so good I had to order 3. The Edamame app we had was so damn good, I had to order another. Everything is so good, you want to order more.Sit outside with a beautiful few. We went during sunset and it was a great experience.Server Kat was great, super sweet and helpful!

The restaurant seated us right away with about 50 minutes until closing time. Ordered tempura and takoyaki as appetizers and they were super fresh, crispy and oh so delicious! This place serves one of the best takoyaki I have ever had! I got the make your ramen and the egg noodles were perfect and chewy! I enjoyed all the food my friend and I ordered! The service was so diligent and sweet! They asked for last calls about 10 minutes before they closed for the evening. I will definitely recommend going here for a little bit to eat with cocktails or massive food if you are hungry!

Food was pretty good however this restaurant had horrible customer service. They didn't let us bring in our boba drinks so we had to chug them outside which ruined dinner. There is probably a reason why they weren't busy on a Friday night. They tried to gaslight us into thinking that they gave us low sodium soy sauce when we asked for it but it was the same super salty soy sauce they gave to us at the beginning.

I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but I had to here. We ordered an appetizer that came still frozen in the middle. They took it back and gave us a new one, but we felt pretty uneasy about the whole thing. They still included it on the bill too which was pretty ridiculous. The rest of the food was bland and basic, not worth the price. Only good thing was the friendly servers!

Itadaki has a great location in the heart of Newbury. It's conveniently located amongst great shopping and they have a nice patio when the weather is nice. Their food is overall pretty good. We ordered the Takoyaki, the Kimchi Nabeyaki Udon and the Grilled Sirloin Steak Curry. The Kimchi Nabeyaki Udon is very unique but a bit on the spicy side so be aware in case you don't like spicy foods. We've also had their Katsu curry which is always great!

I got a ramen and it was $23 which was pretty expensive. The broth was good but nothing special and there was not enough of it. The noodles were also kind of over cooked. Overall just not worth the price in my opinion

Well worth the $19 you will pay. This is the perfect bowl of ramen to warm up your soul on a cold winter day. Staff made room for me +two friends despite ho not having a reservation! 10/10

The food was very tasty and approved by my Japanese friend. But the price was very high. One drink and one soup 40 $.The dining room is small. About 5 small tables.The waiter was nice.If you want to eat cheap, it's not your place.It was nice but I would not go there again (just to expensive)

Had a solo style dinner and the menu was difficult to choose from because it all looked so tasty! I pared some entrees with a sake carafe. If you like your sake dry you must try the Junmai otokoyama. I'm ready to go back again.
