absolute nasty food, i cant eat pork but they just pulled the pieces of pork out of the broth and my partner and i left after 2 bites, asked for to go containers since we felt bad leaving the whole thing there and just gave it to the homeless

I want to start out by saying that the food was wonderful and the ramen was very tasty. However, I am very concerned with how they treat their customers. I understand rules about waiting for whole parties to be together to sit together, but this restaurant also has a bar. When we were waiting for our last friend (group of 4 rather than 5) - the waiter said they could not sit us without the whole party, even at the bar. When we actively told the waiter that one of our members was very pregnant and need to sit, they refused to sit us, even just her, until we just went and got a table. This is extremely worrisome behavior that is not only about pregnancy but about other mobility concerns. For context the restaurant was empty and it was early in the night, so while it was small restaurant there was at least five free tables. We even said we would leave if another table of five was needed but like our friend needed to sit. It seemed like an unnecessary power trip - and while the food was excellent, I would refuse to patron here again until this “rule” or “policy” (that is what it was referred to us by the waiter) is amended.

One of my favorite ramen spots in the city! I would describe the ramen served here as: clean, simple, flavorful!
Not a lot of options to pick from and also not much going on in the bowl: broth, meat, small add-ons, ramen
but… what else do you really need?
This spot hits different especially in winter (or in general when the weather is cold)
There’s also a fun story behind this spot (hint: Tsurumen 1000)

The food was fantastic and the chefs did a nice job, but our dine in experience wasn't great. They had several open tables and we asked if we could sit down a minute before our whole party was there (one of our party had mobility limitations / was pregnant), and they argued that we shouldn't. There were multiple tables open when we ordered. They also asked us to vacate the table the moment we finished eating (which we would have done, of course, without being told). We still tipped/were friendly, but I wouldn't go back again since we felt very in the way. :(

delicious bowls handcrafted right in front of you (if you sit at the counter, which i prefer). the guys here clearly take pride in their craft. small space with limited tables so prepare to wait for a bit. very unassuming but cozy, bustling atmosphere. spicy paitan broth is A+, but cant go wrong with any of the options.

Went for a miso tsukemen lunch special. It was a long line for the Monday lunch hour. It was delicious. The broth was salty on its own but paired nicely with the noodle. I recommend getting the egg as an add on.

Probably the best ramen I had for a long long time, definitely my favorite in Boston so far, probably my fav across US, it’s review worthy. Perfect ramen to broth ratio, thoughtful presentation (definitely rare to see in a ramen place here,) flavor is very balanced (it could use just a little less onion, but that’s my preference, doesn’t affect the balanced taste). Yes there is only minimal service, but it’s pretty normal for a ramen place, you pay after order and before you sit down.

Best ramen in Massachusetts (when Yume Wo Katare sounds too heavy at the moment)
Food is amazing with authentic flavour! Barely any services. It would be nice if the chef can wear the mask while cooking the food and talking to his colleagues.

Spicy Paitan, super flavorful and filling. I always come here, knowing that this is great ramen. Super proud to have this establishment nearby.
