“outstanding!! we missed our flight to South Beach Miami so we decided to spoil ourselves and boy were we spoiled. so so good. everything was outstanding. excellent cocktails too“

“Let me start with the staff, very friendly and welcoming. The best I've seen in Boston thus far. So thank you for the great hospitality Bosso.
The food was great. Their hand rolls are delicious. I also had hokkaido croquettes; these were special. I would definitely come back and try more of their dishes.“

“This was one of the BEST omakase experiences I have ever had. The attention to detail was extraordinary. I ate at several two and three star Michelin restaurants last summer in France and I was happier with my dining experience at Umami. The quality of ingredients is absolutely stellar and it is truly a treat for all the senses. Go!!“

“レベル高いうまさです“

“TL;DR: TAKEOUT REVIEW. Everything was so good! Ikura was the starOrdered takeout/delivery on our last night in Boston for our late night snack. We had gone earlier in the day, but their chef's were not doing ala carte orders yet (they had just opened). But the store has a good selection of grab-and-go items from sushi, to drinks, to other merch like soy sauce and snacks.FOOD:~Chef's Sampler (5/5) and Signature Set (5/5): each of these sets came with 5 pieces of nigiri, and they were all so good. Each of them were topped with a unique seasoning/sauce, and they accompanied each of the fish so well!Salmon don (5/5): came with a great assortment of salmon, all of it very fresh (salmon belly was my fave). But the star of this dish to me was the ikura and the cucumbers. SO DELICIOUSGreat quality sushi, great portions, delicious flavors, and affordable prices! Definitely a must visit!“

“Amazing noodles and dashi“

“The restaurant is exceptional and took care of my group of 3. The atmosphere is great!! Exotic and professional for our business team!!“

“I tried this restaurant today and loved it. The fish and octopus were super fresh so I highly recommend trying anything with seafood in it. We also had a mushroom tofu dish, a couple of salads, and the strawberry tapioca dish and everything was so flavorful. A plus is the space which was really pretty and in such a nice location. I am glad to have discovered this gem of a restaurant and am definitely coming back!“

“Tres velar experience!! Top chef!“

“Excellent salmon bento box!“

“The cutest restaurant in Porter Square! If my math is correct, Tampopo is celebrating 30 years at porter square, so they must be doing something right.

I ordered the tempura combo and was very impressed with what I got. The tempura was light and crispy and the rice was perfectly cooked (some very old comments mention mushy rice but I can say that my rice was cooked to perfection).

When dining in here, you must realize that it is only being run by 2 people, so you may wait a while to get your food as they fill takeout orders; but the food is well worth the wait!“

“Fresh fish, wonderful flavor a d quick service. It is small, but well worth it for the portion and service you get. Delicious!! I will be going back very soon.“

“Very good ramen bowls and great service“

“The food at Café Mami was good, but the service was truly exceptional. The lady working there was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure our dining experience was as pleasant as possible. One downside is that the restaurant is quite small, with only two or three tables, so on a busy day, you might expect a long wait. However, the overall experience was very enjoyable, it’s definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.“

“These guys are always amazing no matter what we get there. I love this place“

“The service and food were amazing.“

“Good food and atmosphere. E“

“A Korean restaurant located in Cambridge, Boston. In addition to Korean food, you can also enjoy Korean barbecue grilled by the staff. This time I ordered kimchi chigae. In addition to being full of kimchi, there are also pork slices, tofu and rice cakes. It is paired with white rice, which goes very well with rice. There are also other free side dishes, including sesame oil cauliflower, cold bean sprouts, and Korean kimchi. , Korean fish slab and vinegar kelp sprouts. The cauliflower and bean sprouts are crisp and delicious, the fish fillets are salty and sweet, and the slightly sour kelp sprouts and cucumbers are even more refreshing and appetizing. The kimchi pot is sour and spicy, and the white rice paired with the soup will make you eat it one bite at a time. The overall meal is generous and delicious.
