The pros: great tasting sushi, incredible banana cake, tasty gin drink, and overall great flavors…read more The cons: slow service, small portions, uneven serving of food (everything came at different times). Despite coming out over the course of 20+ minutes (some tables near us were taking even longer) the sushi rolls were actually very good! The vegan roll was a unique surprise! The banana cake was also incredible. The chef is doing great things, but it's just taking too long. The server said that they weren't expecting so many people without reservations, but the restaurant itself isn't that big (maybe 6 tables of 4?) so you should be prepared to serve that many people at a reasonable pace!

YES! The actual ramen noodles are made from scratch on the premises! AND, their signature Curry…read moreRamen bowl is essentially the *best* eating version of Khao Soi you will experience all year - and for most of those who don't eat a lot of Khao Soi, hold on to your rally caps - this bowl at Kaliubon will blow your mind. I simply cannot imagine ordering anything other than their Curry Ramen bowl from this point forward. Like one would legitimately be insane not to get it, provided you are an average fan of standard Thai-style curries like Red, Panang, or even Las Vegas style Three-color (Red+Green+Yellow). My suggested mod: Ask for your home-crafted noodles a little extra "QQ" or chewy al dente. And ask for a side of their home-made chili oil to step up the Szechuan influence. Normally I shun the fusion or "new-style" menu items, but this Curry Ramen bowl is stuff of dreams. Perfectly executed, temperature hot, unforgettably umami, and the exact drinkable curry broth viscosity that is no accident. This bowl is a champion, folks!

Dined in at Kaliubon in Wethersfield today and it did not disappoint. The place was full, but…read moresomehow still calm and quiet; which I actually loved. It had a lively energy without feeling chaotic. I ordered the beef ramen and added shrimp, and everything came out in under 10 minutes. The broth had a really nice depth of flavor with a mild kick; not overpowering, just enough warmth. The beef was tender, the shrimp addition was worth it, and the portion size was generous. The space itself is clean and modern. I appreciated being able to see the kitchen area and the bar setup; everything looked organized and well run. The booth seating was comfortable, and overall it felt like a great spot for a casual lunch or relaxed dinner. Definitely a place I'd come back to.

Stopped in here with some friends to try this place out since we were in the area!…read more Food: My friend got dashi tofu as an appetizer (not pictured) and it was quite an experience! Very silky, some crunch, and the dashi sauce was well balanced. We then ordered tonkotsu ramen as our entree, and let me tell you I was not disappointed. After trying numerous ramens, specifically tonkotsu, this rated 2nd under my first favorite place. The creamy, rich broth was balanced, the noodles were bouncy (maybe homemade?), and the toppings were all good! Personally I am not a fan of thick pieces of pork chashu, so just keep that in mind when ordering that meat topping. Otherwise, excellent! Service: it was pretty slow so we got in immediately. Our waiter was very nice and took care of our table promptly. Atmosphere: it's definitely darker in this place, but the atmosphere was cozy and the booths were nice! Overall for me this was a 4.7/5, I would definitely recommend going here and experiencing decent tonkotsu ramen!

Located right in the heart of the Market 32 square (Quarry Walk), this spot is incredibly…read moreconvenient. The development there has come a long way over the last few years, making it a great destination for a quick lunch or a sit-down dinner. Plus, having plenty of parking in a modern, well-maintained square is a massive win--no circling the block looking for a spot here. While the name promises "Bao," I haven't ventured into that side of the menu just yet. Why? Because the Ramen is too good to pass up. The Meat Soup (Ramen) is my go-to. The broth is rich, savory, and clearly made with care. It's the kind of "fantastic" comfort food you want on a chilly Connecticut day. The meat is tender and the portions are satisfying. If you're in the Oxford area and looking for authentic flavors in a clean, modern setting, this is the place. It's easy to get to, easy to park, and the soup never misses.

I remembered the service at this location being 10/10. My ramen came topped with Karage chicken and some egg. The broth was very umami and absolutely delicious. The taste was 10/10, no notes. This establishment also had adequate seating area with amazing views.

The place didn't feel very clean and came off like a cheap ramen spot, but without the taste to back it up. Ordered Slurp Spicy -- 2/5. Too sweet and lacked depth. Didn't feel authentic beyond just the ingredients. Slurp Smooth -- 3/5. A bit better -- chicken and broth were okay. Chicken gyoza -- 1/5. Honestly bad... felt like a waste of money. Staff were nice, and they have a restroom with parking nearby, but I saw workers taking out trash through the dining area, which didn't feel sanitary and hurt the experience. Overall, not a place I'd come back to.

There were only three servers and many people were not receiving their orders, water refills, and checks as needed. The servers were all stressed and the environment wasn't welcoming. I hope this establishment can provide more workers on shift to create a better experience for all involved. The food was all pretty solid. I eat a lot of Asian food and found this to be pretty on par with a lot of Asian restaurants in the U.S.- a bit too salty, lacking vegetables, and still pretty palatable. I don't have any qualms with the food, but doubt I'll be back due to the environment.

It was rich, creamy, and full of flavor, the kind of meal that just hits on a cold, rainy day. I wasn't entirely sure what type of noodles they used. I usually prefer noodles with a slightly buttery texture and a bit more slip. The chicken was well seasoned with subtle hints of anise that reminded me of pho. Overall, I really enjoyed it. It's a close contender to Menya Gumi's paitan, but I still prefer Menya Gumi just a little more.
