Ramen Restaurants near Somerville, MA

“Super great staff and very knowledgeable in their dishes! Mahalo!!“

“I'm gonna start with I can't eat Mexican food in the Boston area because I think it's only a few above chipotle. But this is the best food I've had since I ate in California. The birria ramen which ive been dying to try was incredible. I literally have been talking to my friends and family about it all day. My only complaint is I didn't order enough to take home.“

“Great service and delicious food“

“Great Ramen! I like it spicy, but they have regular and veggie options as well!“

“The food is excellent and the staff are extremely friendly. My favorite dish is the Isshindo ramen - the broth, noodles, egg and pork are delicious - you can’t go wrong ordering this! I highly recommend giving this place a try :)“

“Food is truly on another level, all ramen elsewhere has been ruined for me.“

“South Shore’s favorite realtor here with another review. This place is epic, the foods amazing, and the staff is efficient and friendly. Everything we had tasted so fresh and the ramen was so enticing that I didnt get the picture before devouring it. This is by far the best Ramen place on the South Shore. The ambience is quite impressive as well. Cool beats and decorative art that are a party for your eyes and ears.“

“Absolutely love Kyuramen! My fav restaurant! Truly the best ramen I have ever had! The best atmosphere and pairs perfectly with peach soju!! Kai is the best server ever! He is so thoughtful and chill! Definitely request him when you visit! Thank you Kyuramen!“

“Excellent food and service! Will try it again soon!“

“Great selection of products, very nice staff.“

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

“Miraku Boston is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Japanese flavors. I’ve been here a few times and it never disappoints. The Yaki Shoyu Ramen has a rich, savory broth infused with umami-packed Rishiri Kombu and perfectly reduced soy sauce. It truly matches what you would eat in Japan. The Shio Ramen is light and refreshing with tender noodles and traditional toppings that make every bite comforting. The Miraku Katsu Curry is crispy, hearty, and full of flavor, served over rice with their signature curry broth. The Strawberry Cheesecake is creamy, tangy, and the perfect sweet finish. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and there is convenient parking, making it easy to enjoy a meal here. Every visit feels authentic, delicious, and completely satisfying.“

“The food was delicious and the atmosphere was nice, but the waitress with red hair, who wasn't Asian and was wearing a Harley Davidson bomber jacket, was very rude. She had a judgmental and unhelpful attitude while we were choosing our meals. She suddenly brought the check even though we didn't ask for it, as if she wanted us to leave.“

“I ordered the Pho King and it was super delicious!!! The broth was flavorful and seasoned, the beef was tender, and the vegetables and noodles were cooked perfectly. All the flavors came together to make a superb bowl of comfort. A shout out to the server, CHUCK, who answered my questions and provided thoughtful recommendations. I'm bringing family and friends next time!!!“

“the staff was wonderful, the atmosphere was great, the food was amazing. dont know why this place never showed up when I searched for vegan restaurants but they've got tons of vegan options if youre looking for that.“

“Delicious ramen, fast efficient service.“

“Went to this restaurant after seeing it featured on Phantom Gourmet and my husband and myself left full of good food. The food was tasty and came to our table ready to eat and the service was great! They gave us everything we needed in a timely manner. The restaurant was on a smaller scale but we got a table pretty quickly without making a reservation. We even had the dessert of the strawberry shaved ice which had a bowl that was big enough to easily feed the two of us and it was very delicious!“

“5 stars! My favorite ramen! I just love coming here for the spicy sesame and visiting with the super sweet owner :)“

“This was my first time going to Soup Shack and I was very impressed. It’s a small place, but the server was very kind and food came out pretty fast. The spicy miso beef ramen was delicious with the perfect amount of spice. Overall, I think I will definitely visit again“

“Love the food. Miso ramen broth was great. Music they played was very irritating. They played the cover version of pop songs. I wish they would just play the real version of the songs. It sounded like in those YouTube videos when they can’t play the real version because of copyright. Love the food though!“

“Sushi Today, is by far my favorite place to order form during quarantine. I ordered from them before quarantine whenever I would babysit for my neighbors. Even though a lot of places are busy and haven't gotten my orders wrong, sushi today has not disappointed me yet. Sushi Today is the only place I will ever order sushi from. They make eel avocado rolls, which are surprisingly rare and hard to find when looking for take-out. Overall the accuracy, taste, and packaging of my orders from Sushi Today have been awesome.“

“Came here with a friend out of town, and the service was amazing. Really attentive servers and lots of pre-bussing which I appreciate. My vegan ramen was delicious, and a good price for the combo deal. I also got the lychee cocktail that was very sweet but pretty good. Overall would come again!“

“Not bad at all! Everything tasted good, although I wish the hand-cut noodles hadn’t been so uniform in their shape so I didn’t question their “hand” cut ness.
The beef scallion pancake was very nice, and thinly sliced scallion inside reminded me of Beijing duck flavors. It was quite sweet.
The pan fried buns were tasty, though maybe not the best I’ve had in Boston.
I would say that this restaurant has actually Chinese food, but seems very accessible and friendly to non-Chinese people who might be intimidated by anything too authentic.
Despite being quite full on Friday night, there was no wait for a table for 2.“

“Good, but not amazing. I’ve tried the miso, spicy miso, and shio ramen, and takoyaki—slightly underwhelming/ overrated. Broth could be richer with flavor, and the pork belly is just fine, you only get two small slices with a regular size ramen. The takoyaki had too much sauce on top. The green tea is too expensive ($6.50) and I couldn’t finish all of it by myself“

“レベル高いうまさです“

“It was delicious speedy clean polite staff loved the place definitely going back with the family.“

“absolutely stunning vegan ramen! Everything I've had from here has been amazing.“

“Chiharu House Roll! Almost too pretty to eat. Almost.“

“The food is OK-not bad, not great. The miso ramen broth is a little watery and salty at the same time (this ain’t the traditional long simmering bone broth based ramen soup) and the sliced pork (tonkatsu) was a bit tough. The lunch specials are a good price but the taste will make you wonder if it actually is. Tempura isnt the traditional Japanese batter, it’s got the premade thick layer you get from frozen pieces at the supermarket. Sushi rolls are as good as any other neighborhood sushi place. If you’re satisfied with general Asian food this is a decent spot to grab a casual meal, esp lunch. If you’re a discerning diner who can differentiate between real Japanese cuisine vs other styles, you’ll come away a little deflated. The service was great, servers were very nice. The music was really loud and started to grate on me after awhile as it repeated.“

“Had the mega ramen and it was delicious! I will definitely be back.“

“Delicious ramen on par with experiences from Japan. Big bowls for big appetites.“

“Came here twice and really enjoyed it! Food is delicious, servers are so kind, and it's so beautiful inside.
This place is really quiet, even on a Friday night, which is good for me, but this place needs more customers for sure!! Come & check this place out!“

“Green curry was fresh and delicious and the Thai basil rice , not heavy in oil but looks of flavor. Especially for New Year’s Eve. Everything taste very good and fresh.“

“We all thoroughly enjoyed our Hot Pot Buffet. Great value for high quality ingredients that were very fresh. We tried several choices not typically found at other restaurants. Our fantastic wait staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and highly efficient. We recommend Fairy Cafe and will definitely be back.“

“Mi Soul is a great miso soup ramen, the pork is esp tender and generous.Ten Yum was solid, very simple(just noodle and shrimp) and was mild/medium spicy.Poke was good, fish was very clean tasting, and a good amount of rice. I only wish they had spicy mayo as an option, more Seaweed or furikake for crispyness, and a little more cabbage to go with the large amount of rice. Great to have the option given the other poke spots are about a mile away.“

“the accommodated us some good“

“Blue Sakura Shabu All You Can Eat is a lively hot pot spot in Allston offering an AYCE experience with a wide selection of meats, seafood, vegetables, and sides. It’s a popular choice for group dinners, especially with friends or classmates looking for a filling meal.

The space is modern and energetic, with individual burners built into each table for a more personal hot pot experience. It can get busy during dinner hours and weekends, but the atmosphere adds to the fun, social feel of the meal. Service is generally attentive, with staff bringing out orders steadily and checking in to swap out broths or refill items when needed.

The menu offers a good variety of thinly sliced beef, pork, chicken, seafood, and classic hot pot additions like fish balls, tofu, mushrooms, and leafy greens. The meat quality is solid for AYCE, and portions come out quickly enough to keep the meal moving. Broth options range from lighter house broths to spicier selections, allowing you to customize the experience. While it may not be the most premium hot pot in the area, the value is strong for the price point and the unlimited format makes it easy to try a bit of everything.

Overall, Blue Sakura is a reliable AYCE hot pot destination in Allston, great for casual group outings, celebrations, or when you’re just really craving a big, comforting meal.“
