    Vegan ramen
    Angela S.

    Super chill! I love that you can see the kitchen from any indoor seat. The ramen is top tier and the service was great! They start you off w a hot towel and even gave us a complimentary dessert. This is a must if you are in the mood for ramen

    What a lovely evening at Domu with my friends ! This is one of our spots after a crazy work day . Food is comforting and delicious and we always have good service. Our table ordered Tokyo ramen, miso ramen, traditional ramen, wings and 2 cucumber appetizers to share. Ambiance is chill and inside is nicely decorated. Until next time !

    I love DOMU so so so much. It's probably one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Orlando. The service is great, especially on a week night. I enjoyed a Thai tea, which is so sweet and refreshing. We enjoyed the patatas bravas, which I have to get every time. They're always perfection. We tried the scallop bun, which was incredibly fresh, zesty, and delicious. It was a good portion for the price. The Richie Rich is my absolute favorite menu item and it's so perfect every time. The broth, egg, pork, and toppings are all excellent. The restaurant is intimate and beautiful. You can't get a better ramen experience.

    Ramen lovers, you haven't been to Domu yet you are missing out! Although most of their bowls have one type of noodle, the flavor profiles of each dish make up for it. Favorite dish: Yuzu Citrus wings which is one of their summer speciality items and man am I gonna miss it when the September hits. Think lemon pepper with a bit of sweetness. It's truly perfection and I could probably clear and catering tray of them! The waiter and the bartender were on point and incredibly kind and surprisingly even though it seemed like a slower date when we went, the atmosphere was great. Good pacing between meals and spacing between tables.

    I swung by to give it another try. I ordered the chicken ramen this time and added bamboo shoots and enjoyed one of their refreshing drinks. It wasn't that easy getting a seat at the bar but I happen to snag one just as someone was leaving. It is a busy popular bar indeed. Staff is friendly and came through when I asked for some chilli oil. My overall vote is still pretty much the same - 3.5 but I know many wouldn't agree so I'm compelled to round up. Nevertheless thank you Domu for holding it down and warming many of Orlando goers tummy's up.

    I prefer this location to the one in Dr Phillips. The inventive cocktails are fun. They have bottomless mimosas at brunch. Would get there before opening if you don't want to wait for over an hour. The spicy tonkatsu ramen was very good. The wings are messy but good

    Sip & Savor 2026 Review! Wow, it's been just over a year since I've been back to the OG Domu in Audubon Park at East End Market. We decided to go try for a table as the Sip & Savor promo was going and on this weekend afternoon it had rained hard so we thought the crowds would be dissipated. Spoiler alert, they were not and we walked into a 2-hour wait! Folks, Domu does not take reservations so you almost always have a wait! Keep in mind that the wait time they quote is often higher than what you'll actually have to wait. In any event, we will were lucky to get a seat at the busy bar then the other seat when the guest eating alone got up and left (Nice)! The menu is largely the same. It hasn't changed much over the years. Yes, they have seasonal specials from time to time but they are relying on their classic goodness that has sustained them for 10 years. Keep in mind, much has changed in the past 10 years, including in the ramen scene. Nevertheless, the drink menu has their classic cocktails and some new ones as well. At the bar we had a couple beverages and we also tried the bok choy appetizer. The bok choy is charred and comes with a lemon slice and is a simple, yet delicious, first dish to eat. At about the 1 hour and 10 minutes, our seat always ready. Keep in mind, I went with the kitchen seats which probably added some extra time but well under the 2-hour initial quote. Sitting at the table with views into the kitchen is always on point in my opinion. You tend to get better service overall and you get to see different aspects of the kitchen and how it operates. The Sip and saver promo was the same as last year. It includes three of their classic wings, the Richie Rich ramen, and the soft serve of the moment which today was Cookie monster. Both the wings and the Richie Rich ramen were on point and still contain that classic goodness that put them on the map! Overall, Domu hasn't changed and for some, that's a good thing. Even the menu prices are fair IMO for bowl of ramen, protein, a few vegetables. The drinks are around $12 which is fairly priced. I continue to see that the sale of alcohol has gone way down as compared to previous generations and I did see a number of tables with just water. As a supporter, I would suggest Domo invest in mocktails and or promoting them more. I haven't visited the other Domu locations, but, I would wager that this location is due for a refresh. Side note, The Cookie monster was okay (Kelly's ice cream is a better version). If you're going to stay with classic goodness then bring back the honey vanilla that used to be around!

    Ordered the sip and savor and was more than enough food. The Korean chicken wings is always consistently delicious, glad it was part of the deal. We decided to sit outside due to shorter wait time and service was just as good as inside. The line to get in always long so make sure to get there early since they don't take reservations. We got in line at 4:45 and were seated at 5:30, which is the typical wait time. Highly recommend!

    I haven't been to Domu since Covid. I really love their wings so I got them again and they are still so yummy. I got there at 5 pm and still ended up having to wait for a table for over an hour. I was maybe 10th in line. Parking is a bit of a nightmare for this location, but I ended up finding something on the street down the way. The food was good! I really liked my ramen. I'd totally order it again. However, the pork belly was very soggy in the ramen and it was overcooked.

    In Orlando on a Monday night, this Michelin star establishment has a build your own Ramen night. So we decided to check out the hype. Domu is located at East End market so parking can get a little difficult but once the market closes, it's a tad bit easier to find parking. Domu offers outside seating, bar seating, bar seating with a kitchen view, and dining room seating. This establishment is on the smaller side for seating which can cause longer wait times, but it is so worth the wait! We got to sit at the bar seating area that gives you a view of the kitchen. We got to watch, however everything goes down in the kitchen. Our server was prompt with taking our order explaining how build your Ramen bowl night works. She reviewed the menu with us and asked if we had any questions. She was kind, knowledgeable, and attentive. We started with bar drinks while we were waiting for our table. Once we were seated, we were greeted with a little bowl of hot washcloths to cleanse our hands. We ordered an appetizer, sichuan cucumber that had a little spice, but was refreshing and not too filling. Then the best part we got to build our own Ramen bowl. My base was chicken broth, noodles, which by the way are made all in-house fresh, I added scallions, roasted garlic, and corn. The other bowl had pork broth with egg, Bok choy, roasted garlic, corn. I have to tell you this was the best Ramen I have ever had anywhere.!! we completed our meal with ube ice cream topped with fruity pebbles. We got Domu wings to go, which were voted the best wings in Central Florida, and that was a 100% the truth! Domu was definitely worthy of the Michelin star! I 1000% will be back for build your own Ramen night, which is on Mondays! It's a great atmosphere, great food, great drinks, and friendly staff, why would you not want to go back?! Cheers!

    I think how busy they always are speaks to how good they are. While they don't allow reservations and your party must all be present before being seated, the food is delicious. Their wings are so crispy, I think they're some of the best wings I've had. I also highly recommend their Tokyo Ramen. The chicken thighs in the ramen are crispy and have great flavor. I only wish there was more broth because it was so yummy. Food came out fast and service was great.

    Amazing Japanese spot!! Once you enter, you are met with a huge seating area including a bar where you can only get drinks. Most people in there are waiting for a table inside the main restaurant. Once we got called back, we sat at another bar area where you can see the kitchen. Very interesting layout. We started with the famous domu wings and I seriously will be thinking about the wings until I go back. So much flavor in those things. I love that the noodles are made in house so I wanted to try the ramen of course. I got the Richie Rich ramen which was tasteful but I wish you could choose to add some spice in it. Still great though. My sister got the tonkotsu with black garlic and she almost ate the entire thing. Also got some shishito peppers and that was also just as good as everything else. I kept seeing the lychee martini being ordered to I got that and it was as good as everyone mentioned. It does have popping boba at the bottom which I loved but I know not everyone likes it so just an fyi. My sister got the Roddy pom. The place is pretty small and they don't take reservations so be prepared to wait at least 30 minutes. We got there 25 minutes after opening and waited 40 minutes. The parking gets filled fast along with overflow parking being full so be prepared to find a spot.

    I have been wanting to try Domu for sometime, but was intimidated by the long wait times. We showed up at East End market early on a Friday anticipating we would be seated right away. That was not the case. The wait, by the time we got there, was 1.5 hours (and that was literally 5:15! - they open at 5!). We decided to check out their happy hour and sit at the bar instead, which we were seated pretty much right away. My husband ordered a highlight and one of our friends ordered an old-fashioned. The drink drinks were delicious and quickly made by the kind of bartender, Maddie. She took her order which consisted of both flavors of wings (the original & the green curry), cheezus, & the tokyo ramen. The appetizers came out quickly to help hold us over. The curry wings were a little spicy, but the original held up to the hype. My husband even said that they were probably his favorite wing in town. The cheezus was delicious - with a hint of lime and spice. The bread on the side was warm and soft. We got the ramen and split it amongst 4 people. It was flavorful and filling. The ambiance was hipster and buzzin'. Industrial and organized. You can even buy the kitchen staff a shot for after shift! Definitely stop here. You won't regret it

Unfortunately, everything after that was a bit of a letdown. The salad had way too much going on for my taste. Between the peas, pistachios, various fruits, and all the other components, there were just too many competing flavors and textures. I appreciate a creative salad, but this one felt overly complicated rather than cohesive. The steak wasn't cooked to my liking, and the portions overall were surprisingly small, especially considering the price point. We also tried the cake for dessert, but it was extremely rich, to the point where a few bites were plenty for me. Overall, 3/5. The service and atmosphere were fantastic, and I would definitely recommend the rosemary focaccia, but it says something when the bread was honestly the highlight of the meal. I'd consider coming back for drinks, focaccia, and the ambiance, but based on this visit, I wouldn't rush back specifically for dinner.

Conversations, music, the lounge itself .... all came together in a way that felt alive and IN THE MOMENT. When my LA friends visit, Alfie's is on the list. Go after 9 or 10 PM and plan to stay for at least two hours. That's when you really see the scene develop and come alive. Bring your ID: they card at the door. Even at my age, I still get carded. No complaining about that ! lol

    This is a cool place to hang out. The hifi bar. Drinks were an average price…read more There was plenty of seating and a dance floor to get loose if that's your thing. They made sure the air was ln for anticipation of a large crowd. I wish the outdoor space had a better sound system however it backs up to a residential neighborhood ( so let's not disturb the peace). Cute kitschy spot - gives 70s nostalgia The fur on the women's bathroom entrance was interesting

    We came for the first time tonight and had a blast. It is a speakeasy located in the back of the…read moreCopper Rocket. First you check in at the hostess booth in a small room where she does her spiel and fully explains the menu. Then she will lead you inside the restaurant to your seat. We sat in a private nook in the corner which accommodated our 8 people (which the staff was fine with us adding 2 more to our 6 person reservation initially). The entire place is so well decorated and if you look around there's tons of fun details and decor. The menu is made up of a map and they provide everyone with their own personal flashlight to see it. When you order certain drinks, it triggers various special effects. At times, it felt like an adult rainforest cafe with changing sounds and lights. Our server went above and beyond to make our experience great, going all out with his special effects and overall sassiness. You get a two hour allotment and our server did a great job of updating us of how much time we had left. We will definitely be back!

    I had heard a lot of hype about Permanent Vacation, but unfortunately our experience was…read moreunderwhelming. The hostess was great and gave us a fun introduction, but after that the experience felt disconnected. We ordered food and drinks at the same time, but our food came out before my drink, which took another 10-15 minutes. We tried several food items and weren't impressed overall--we even sent one back. The coconut shrimp was the best thing we had, but pretty basic. I was surprised considering the connection to Copper Rocket, where the food is delicious. The drinks were also just okay aside from the stronger Painkiller options, and the menu is very rum-forward. The decor is definitely the highlight and they clearly put a lot of effort into the space. I just expected the experience to be more immersive. There's no real music, just occasional sound effects that felt random rather than tied into the theme or drinks. The space is small and tables are tight, so definitely make a reservation. If I went back, I'd probably just go for a drink and to check out the decor. It feels like a missed opportunity for something that could have been really cool, especially for the Maitland nightlife scene.

As you walk through the corridor, you'll find a space that embodies cocktails, food, and trinkets for browsing and purchasing. With both bar space, high-tops, and regular seating options, you'll be tempted to indulge in all that it has to offer. Parking is available, but ride-sharing is recommended. Come for the Happy Hour, but stay for the vibes and great service. Cheers!

    An east end market staple - I can't believe this is my first time trying their pizza. The…read moreatmosphere of the venue is a little weird with a bar in the middle of a store and tables to eat and drink at scattered throughout. The layout of the venue made it hard to understand if we should order at the bar or wait for a server. We ended up ordering at the bar individually and just waiting at a table on the side for our food. The server came around a few times to check in and they have several self serve water stations which was nice. We ordered drinks and two pizzas. Our drinks were pretty good and reasonably priced. My pizza was delicious - the regular. I really like the pepperoni and honey combo. My partner got the garden pesto pizza and it was weirdly spicy. The ingredients didn't include anything spicy so it's a mystery why the pizza was so hot. She got some ranch to cool it down which luckily was very yummy. Overall a unique experience and not bad food!
