Came here on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. Ordered at the counter with the assistance of a friendly cashier and then plucked down at a table to wait for the food, which came in about 5-10 minutes but in any case not soon enough! The food was delicious and a bowl costs between $15-$20. Portions aren’t the largest you’ll find but definitely sufficient.
The vibe is nice and casual. They have serve yourself water and hot water a few accouchements. They also have highchairs available in the corner if you come with a baby. Each table has plenty of room for the highchair but might not also accommodate a big stroller.
Overall, good vibe here and good food. Thank you to the staff. I look forward to coming back!

5 stars, because this is absolutely the best bowl around. Waits can be long, but I recommend going right at open or last hour before they close. Worth the wait, and the best noodles you can get.

Outstanding Ramen. I am not an expert but I was totally impressed. We sat at the bar and I enjoyed watching them make our food. I would recommend this restaurant to others. I have heard it can be hard to get in but we walked straight in no problem.

Best ramen in the area hands-down. I always get the spicy paitan with the egg.

Some of the best paitan ramen I've had stateside! They really do it right here. Place your order at the counter and enjoy the show of the chefs preparing each bowl to order. Service was quick and the atmosphere calls back to a ramen shop in Osaka.

Tsurumen is my go-to ramen spot in the Camberville area. I’ve been heat a few times and every time has been wonderful! Friendly staff and quick service in a cozy atmosphere, and the ramen is fantastic!

Tsurumen is one of the greatest ramen shops in the greater Boston area. Broth is always on point, the wavy noodles are my personal favorite but the thin noodles are great too. The Chashu is some of the best- flavorful and wonderfully tender. They are also incredibly efficient so the line does move relatively quickly but the place is very popular so unless you plan around a non peak time, expect a bit of a wait although you do sometimes get lucky with being able to walk right in. The only thing I would change would be that I wish they had an ajitama egg on the menu in addition to an onsen egg but everything else is perfect.

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.
