A very pleasant eating experience. The food was good and the service was great. However, we made the mistake of parking in the lot next door, saw no signs indicating fees but received a fine in the mail a week later. The lot next to the restaurant is owned by a predatory business with over 80 recent bbb complaints. If you choose to eat here, and I would, make sure you park away from the area and walk in.

Hands down the best ramen in Portland! Fantastic staff/service, great food, chill and modern atmosphere… They nailed the trifecta of a great restaurant!

Dining at AFURI Ramen+Dumpling was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the ambiance set a welcoming scene with its modern decor and a comforting, warm vibe. The service was impeccable - attentive, quick, and the staff had an excellent knowledge of the menu, providing great recommendations. The food was the real highlight, though. The ramen had a rich, flavorful broth that was clearly simmered to perfection, and the noodles were just the right level of chewy. The dumplings were a revelation, with a delicate wrapper and sumptuously seasoned filling. Each bite was a testament to the culinary skill at work in the kitchen. I also appreciated their commitment to sustainability, which shows a forward-thinking approach to dining that doesn't compromise on quality. I left AFURI Ramen+Dumpling not just full, but genuinely impressed. It's a must-visit for anyone in Beaverton looking for a top-tier ramen experience.

In a small group gathering, the group leader suggested going to this Japanese chain store called "Afli", which has good color, fragrance, and good value for money. Six or seven people spent a total of 140 yuan, including a 20% tip. It is said to have originated in Tokyo. The first few branches abroad were all in our city of Portland. They mainly sell ramen and other fast food. Only the branch on Seventh Street sells sushi. The kitchen is open and the environment is good.

The food was very good. But if you sit at the bar, the server is scary. Very unfriendly. The ambiance is eh....

The food here is good, but I wish there was more noodles for the price you pay. Staff here is friendly and attentive. Might have to give it a try again in the future!

This is a great spot! The main draw for me is the cocktails - the new bar manager has put a ton of effort and creativity into the menu, and there are a lot of amazing drinks that even the nerdiest cocktail aficionado would appreciate. I'm celiac and there is really only one option on the menu, so I don't know that I'll be back for that reason. The atmosphere is bit loud, but my husband's ramen and the drinks were fantastic.

My partner and I randomly stopped by here for dinner on a Sunday and we were very happy with the quality of the food and service. They specialize in ramen dishes and dumplings, as you may infer by the restaurant name. A lot of their ramen has yuzu in it, giving it an extra "kick" compared to other Japanese soup places. The thin noodles they use soak up a lot of the flavor and are simply very enjoyable to eat. It's on the fancier side, but prices are pretty reasonable, and you can get a small appetizer plus a housemade drink (I would highly recommend the yuzu limeade) along with a ramen for just $24. I would say that the appetizers tasted even better than the ramen from my experience, and I really like the karaage and gyoza. Best part of all is the dessert they offer, you may choose from three types of tofu doughnuts. They ran out of the ginger honey and yuzu curd selections, but my boyfriend and I were able to try the blueberry compote with ice cream and it was delectable. We definitely want to come back and sample other things in the menu. Service was friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be that the seats are way too close. My partner and I had a nice corner seat but then people who were coughing got seated beside us, I would have asked for us to be moved if there were more tables available. Overall I really enjoyed my time here, though.

I loved the ramen here! The broth was unique, like a smooth, creamy texture. I highly recommend the tofu donuts w/yuzu curd - such an amazing dessert. The service was good, and the place looks great inside - love the atmosphere.

I love everything that I ordered. My husband got tonkotsu tantan and Aburi koro chashu don. I got winged buta gyoza. For chashu don, I think the rice in the bowl is too little. Good atmosphere. Server was ok but she didn't come to check us.

They should really think about easing up "no substitutions". I think reasonable substitutions should be allowed.
