Visiting Boston, I stopped here because I wanted to come back and have lunch in Chinatown. The place was empty besides another couple of friends that were sitting parallel to me. The service was excellent, and the food was excellent. I had some shrimp tempura and a ribeye soup bowl. I recommend visiting for a quick solo or friends lunch.

The takoyaki was a bit chewy but the beef( the spicy non curry one with udon) ramen was phenomenonenal! The niche drinks were fabulous as well(yuzu peach soda and the use soda) it was one of the only places in the area that had the food I wanted that didn't have much of a wait

Place is small and clean, great sake, very good appetizers but the beef sukiyaki was not the best. Very sweet soup! Will try another savory dish. Service was amazing!!

The truffle edamame is absolutely killer. Super flavorful, and very generous truffle content. We also loved our udon and soba. Noodles were perfectly cooked, and the warm broths were exactly what you want on a cool fall day.

Somenya staff was friendly and their dishes were delivered reasonably quick. I was able to be seated quickly and everything was handled professionally.
The food was good, I got a Takoyaki and a Spicy Beef Soba and both were very good.
I'll be returning to try a hot Soba next time.
All of it went perfectly with a Sapporo.

Good food and services. The udon is not thick version and tastes more like HeLe
Btw come early otherwise you will have to wait for a long time.

1st time dine in with family because kids want to try them. We order our foods and after waiting for 30 minutes the kitchen told the server that they ran out of seafood and we need to choose something else. 5-10 minutes after we order they told us, then yes we understand, but after 30+ minutes it’s ridiculous. Also after my wife reorder different entree they only bring out my daughter food and my wife and son still have to wait for their food. They really ruin my appetite so I end up left and not eating. Horrible management and a worse way to run a business. you bring out food for 1 person, they finished it and the rest of the family continue to wait for their food. Never ever come back. Hope some social media follow up on this so the public can see their bad management.

What a fantastic place, I've been here twice and so far no issues! This really scratched the ramen itch I've been feeling ever since I was diagnosed with celiac disease. The menu is not labeled but our server went back and forth to the chef to figure out what I can eat. Essentially no fried stuff, or pan friedand the gf noodles is soba. I got their classic beef soba and tofu salad, it was PERFECT. You can control spice level and they do substitutions. Tell them it's for an allergy, they will ask if you can handle cross contamination so that makes me feel more secure.

Cucumber salad was wonderfully crunchy and had the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and spice. Crispy squid was still tender and perfectly crispy! Throughly enjoyed the waitress’ recommendation of taraka udon, it was so chewy and light! Refreshing and satisfying meal for a hot day, can’t wait to come back and try the hot dishes!

One of the best noodle spots in town. Excellent noodles and Sapporo in a cozy downstairs hideaway? Sold.
Delicious vegetarian options. We liked the agedashi tofu, yasai and kitsune udon noodles. The staff are also knowledgeable and helpful at suggesting modifications.

Tried to visit 30 minutes before closing, went for the great rating. Disappointed they decided to close early. May be best to call ahead, as opening hours aren't reliable.

The starters are generously portioned and full of flavor. The beef teriyaki soba is also delicious.
