Tampopo is a charming restaurant run by a seasoned Japanese couple, offering a cozy and friendly dining experience. The menu includes a good selection of authentic Japanese cuisine like curry, noodles, tempura, katsu don, and Japanese curry risotto. Dishes are well-balanced in flavors and homemade, with the katsu being perfectly crisp and the curry risotto tasting delicious. The staff is very friendly, and the ambiance feels like being invited into a home, making it a comforting spot for a meal. Customers have praised the incredible pork katsu curry and the best tempura they've ever had. Although the seating is limited and the service may not be the fastest, the overall experience is worth it. Prices remain surprisingly low for the Boston area, making it highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Japanese dishes.
