“It was a cozy place. Interior brought me back to Japan.

My only complaint is the amount of meat. Very little meat in my hot spicy beef udon.

Flavors were nice though. Broth was light and enjoyable.

Service is quick.“

“jinelly was Amazing and food was delicious.“

“The presentation was impressive; each course arrived like a small work of art, and the kitchen clearly takes pride in the visual experience.

Where it falls short is value. Honestly, it just wasn’t worth the price.

Worth noting: I experienced some stomach discomfort during the meal, which I’ll attribute to possible sensitivity to raw fish rather than anything on the restaurant’s end.

Beautiful to look at, but there are likely better options at a friendlier price.“

“Excellent salmon bento box!“

“Yume Ga Arukara is a Japanese udon shop located in the heart of Boston's Seaport District, expanding from its other location in the Cambridge area.

The staff are friendly and welcoming, there is typically a longer line at this location so they take your order ahead of time and when you're seated, it comes out quite quickly.

The udon is quite good as well. The broth is flavorful, and the noodles are quite tasty and chewy as well. The extra ingredients go well with the noodles and broth, and the portions are good for the price.“

“The food is amazing and the service was outstanding. Very friendly and quick.“

“Thank you Alan and Lotus Xpress for catering my husband's surprise 50th birthday party. Alan, you were wonderful to work with during the planning process- providing options and tending to all the details. The food was AMAZING! Delicious and a great variety. The day of the event, it was such a relief to have you there- catering to our 75 guests. As the host of the party, it gave me great ease knowing you were tending to the buffet and I was able to relax and tend to the guests! The food made the event. Thank you for helping make the event a success!“

“Great sushi and cocktails. We ate at the bar. And the bartender was excellent!“

“Wife and I stopped in on a whim for a quick bite for lunch.

Wife had a bowl of miso soup, we got a spicy tuna roll, vegetable tempura, and pork belly fried rice.

We agreed that it is our favorite fried rice in Boston.

Great food, great service, awesome atmosphere. Will be back!“

“The food is fabulosooooo .“

“The food at Fuji is outstanding. Far and away the best fusion Japanese food in Newton and around.“

“Best udon noodles ever 🥰 beef with kimchi nice and warm on a rainy day.“

“Deluxe Sashimi Platter ⭐️ It was great! It's really fresh and there are a lot of varieties, except for the sea urchin, which is a bit fishy Octopus Carpaccio ⭐️ The seasoning is very refreshing and the octopus is very chewy, I love it Torched Japanese Scallop ⭐️ It was very light, I couldn't really taste the seasoning, but it was very tender Unagi Don ⭐️ A friend ordered this. Gyu Don + Onsen Egg ⭐️ The beef is very juicy and the onsen egg is very flavorful“

“Amazing service and attentive staff. Great place to come for all occasions!“

“I'm a west coast Shabu purist who used to work in Japan and I have to admit this place is very Chinese hot pot inspired BUT they do it in a clean honest Japanese way. Bright flavors, great cuts of meat, and fresh veggies. Great happy vibe and the window seat is an idyllic contrast between clean cultured shabu and gritty Chinatown. Love this place!“

“I cannot believe it took me a year to try this place!! If you’re looking for a casual, yummy, take-out lunch, definitely give this place a go! Over the past month, I’ve tried the chicken teriyaki bowl and multiple sushi rolls. Everything is so delicious, so reasonably priced, and always ready to go within just a few minutes of ordering. The portion sizes are large and reasonable for what they cost, and the service is very quick and friendly. This has definitely become one of my staple lunch spots in the area!“

“This is my favorite sushi place, bar none. The food is a great value given the quantity and quality, and the customer service couldn't be better. They recognize me when I come to pick up lunch despite only going about once a month, and the staff is always so friendly. I recommend it to all my coworkers, and always look forward to my lunches from there.“

“Great udon. Pad Thai. Hibachi. Not slathered in corn starch salty sauces like most Asian restaurants in the area. The shrimp , beef and chicken were better than other places we have tried. Highly recommend.“

“The shrimp tempura sushi burrito with the spicy mayo was delicious. Fresh and quick. We will definitely be back!“

“Love the place, especially Kevin, the bartender. Good service, friendly atmosphere, this is where we celebrate friends birthdays and other celebrations“

“Food was fantastic.

The reason I took off a star isn't a great reason because we didn't all for this up front, but they refused to give separate checks or split the check more than two ways (we asked for 3 since we couldn't get our own check), that was frustrating.“

“Mind-Blowing Culinary Experience at UNI Dining at UNI is nothing short of extraordinary. Chef Take's talent is truly remarkable, turning every dish into a masterpiece. The sashimi is unbelievably fresh, each slice practically melts in your mouth, showcasing the incredible quality and craftsmanship that UNI is known for. One of the standout dishes was the Foie Gras sushi with pop rocks and strawberry. The combination of flavors and textures was nothing short of genius—a perfect balance of richness, sweetness, and a playful pop that left me in awe. It’s a daring creation that speaks to Chef Take’s innovative spirit. My personal favorite, though, has to be the Toro topped with caviar. The buttery, luxurious texture of the Toro paired with the briny burst of caviar is an experience I won't soon forget. It's the kind of sushi that dreams are made of. The service at UNI is also top-notch. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and makes you feel like a VIP from start to finish. They are well-versed in the menu and make excellent recommendations, ensuring that your dining experience is seamless and memorable. UNI is, without a doubt, a dining destination that should be on every food lover’s bucket list. Chef Take’s talent shines through in every dish, making it an unforgettable experience.“

“Great place to stop by. The staff are great and you can always find a food option that you'll like. If your just starting off, try the chicken katsu bento. You will have to wait for this meal, but its a great starting point. I find the meals are great to eat between work and school since I don't have much time to eat in most places.“

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!“

“Wonderful neighborhood business. Great sushi. Order perfect every time. Good value. Clean facility. Kind staff. Easy meal. Support your local small business.“

“We love coming to Zuma. The hospitality is incredible and the vibes. Want to personally thank Sara the hostess that was able to squeeze in the 3rd person in our party to joining us. Thank you Sara. It made our night. — Roman“

“One of those places you never notice even after passing it a dozen times. Casual noodle spot aimed at the students nearby, but I'd never heard a word about it from friends or colleagues. The dining room was fairly big, yet completely empty when we came in for a quick takeout on a Saturday evening.

The menu was split mostly between noodles and casual Chinese. Not much of it looked convincing, so we skipped the popular stuff and just ordered what we were in the mood for. Most of it was ok at best, but the scallion oil noodles with crispy pork strips were pretty good. The noodles were soaked in a good amount of scallion oil, and the pork strips added a nice textural contrast.

Probably a place I'd have frequented as a student in the neighborhood, but with better casual Chinese and noodle spots in Downtown Boston and Chinatown, I doubt I'll be back.“

“Great food for a great price. Everything from the sushi to the ramen was spot on. Staff were super friendly we will definitely be coming back.“

“the downside is the delivery charges cost $7 so I can't order regularly too expensive“

“The best takeout restaurant for sushi and Chinese food in Melrose!“

“The best in Boston.“

“I came here to try their ramen noodle. We ordered their grilled zucchini and pork belly bao bun for starter. My colleague ordered their spicy beef noodle soup while I ordered their duck noodle soup. Our starters came within 10 mins despite they are busy. Kudos to them. Grilled zucchini was okay, lack of seasoning. Pork belly bao buns on the other hand are deliciously good!!!

Beef noodle soup broth is thick and rich, beef slices are tender and juicy. Duck noodle soup broth is light and bland. I will definitely stick for their sushi on my next visit.“

“Good food, friendly staff, fair price. Not something I got from any other food place at Fanueil Hall.

We got the chicken teriyaki, with vegetables, and noodles.

Chicken and noodles were awesome! Some of the vegetables were on the cold side, which is my only complaint.

Employees were very friendly and you tell they cared about their customers.

Definitely will get food from there again on our next visit.“

“We enjoyed 4 rolls we had here last night. We love sushi rolls, so we find a sushi place whenever we travel.
Rolls here are tasty- fresh ingredients, good flavor, good texture, and good looking. Rolls here have ideal rice to fish ratio- as little rice as possible, generously stuffed n topped.
Service was good- appropriately attentive and courteous.
Atmosphere is fine - cozy, low key, local hangout vibe.
We will be back next time we are in town.“

“Friendly service and tasty dishes! Would go again.“
