    Spicy ramen
    Georgia V.

    Wonderful food - highly recommend the spicy sesame ramen and tea! The facility is clean and service is great

    Ramen is mild, service is efficient. Not something I would eat again. There are best ramens out there.

    Tonkotsu.

    Simple, small establishment; chill atmosphere; sweet staff; and delicious food. I like going there for a quiet evening, enjoying a bowl of warm ramen and sometimes a sushi roll, with a table to myself. A perfect place to rewind after a long day at work.

    It was a nice and small restaurant. The kimchee miso ramen was good, but not that spicy. The vegan ramen was ok. It need more flavor.It was not busy so the staff were very attentive. There is only street parking.

    Tonkatsu ramen
    Elena J.

    3.5/5 We ate on the patio, which was a nice space, though there were a few bugs. I ordered the tonkatsu ramen and a spicy dragon roll. Everything was decently fine; nothing stood out as especially better than other ramen or sushi I've had at other places. This place does cook with low sodium, low fat, and no msg, so it didn't have the richest flavor and broth.

    The food here was great but the service was poor. We had a reservation that they forgot about which induced a wait. After being seated, it was clear they were understaffed as it took long to order, get our food, etc. I know Covid is impacting staffing in general, but expect that if you dine in. We ordered sushi, ramen, and scallion pancakes. You can't go wrong with any sushi or ramen. Definitely order the scallion pancakes, they're so good.

    Spicy Tuna Update special roll
    Sharon H.

    This is the most underrated restaurant I have been to in the Boston area so far! Super cheap, high quality fish and sushi and freaking delicious. Thoroughly enjoyed my time here and was surprised by how cheap the rolls were, especially when you come for lunch. My friend and I shared three rolls on the lunch menu and a special roll (and yes, they still offer lunch menu prices on the weekends - we came on a Sunday!). It was insanely fresh and filling. We ordered: + Spicy Tuna Update special roll +the lunch Choose Roll Combo ($13 for three rolls!!! And comes with miso soup and salad): 1. Alaskan hand roll 2. eel avocado hand roll 3. shrimp tempura hand roll I loved how they didn't inundate the rolls with rice and there's just a thin layer of rice around the fish. The tuna and salmon rolls that we had were extremely fresh and well seasoned - the perfect bite size. And I absolutely thought the size per price of roll was a steal (I'm so used to sushi restaurants only giving six prices so this was a great extra treat!) I also appreciated how all the rolls that had avocado in it gave so much avocado (they really don't skimp out on it). Highly recommend making a reservation beforehand since the space inside is small. Can seat four other parties inside and maybe 6-7 outside. If you're coming on a hot summer day like we did, it was still scorching hot inside, even though the AC was on - not the best in terms of ambiance but an awesome lunch and takeout spot. Also there was only one server when we dined in so it took forever for us to order, get water, get our check, etc. But I saw that they're looking for more servers so hopefully things will pick up!! Overall, love love love this place and can't wait to try out their other rolls! Highly recommend coming here for lunch for the best prices!

    Spicy sesame ramen
    Jasmin J.

    I was so excited to try a ramen place I hadn't yet been to in Boston! We were enticed by the fact that they had ramen AND sushi, but I am realizing that a business might not have a good grip on either if they offer both. Actually, the sushi was pretty good for the price. I don't think I would elect to go here for sushi alone, but it did fill a craving. The miso soup that came with the sushi dinner was cold. I decided to get the house special spicy sesame ramen over the tonkotsu because I'd never had sesame broth before! I'm not sure what I should have expected, but it tasted like pizza to me. Aside from that, however, I thought the ramen was decent. The ground beef and the could have been cooked more. The servers here are very kind, but mildly inefficient with service. Getting to the bathroom requires you to walk through the kitchen, which seems odd to me.

    Spicy Sesame Ramen Seaweed Salad
    Adina S.

    I had ramen from this restaurant through UberEats. The ramen broth came separately from the contents of the soup, so I was able to heat up the broth and pour it over. The broth had a really rich flavor and the noodles were cooked to perfection. The seaweed salad was also delicious. I'm hoping to check out the restaurant in person sometime soon!

    I like this cute little ramen restaurant. I've been here once before when they had a student promotion going on where you get a free bowl of tonkotsu ramen if you can show them an "A" on your most transcript from the previous semester (talk about motivation!!). I got a bowl of their tonkatsu ramen and some sushi. The noodles were cooked well and the broth was delicious. I would get the sushi again as well. I feel they were both at a pretty reasonable price point. It wasn't too busy when we went so service was alright and the food did not take too long to come out.

    Spicy Sesame Ramen
    Katie C.

    Whoa, surprisingly good ramen in a totally unexpected location. I really wasn't expecting much when I decided to pick an order of Tonkotsu ramen up on my way home. But I quickly realized I had found a gem. For $12, you get rich and creamy pork broth, pretty tender chashu pork, half of a perfectly cooked egg, and a myriad of tasty toppings from bamboo to corn to seaweed. They also stamp a cute little sticker onto the takeout container, recommending how to reheat the broth for maximum enjoyment. I've since tried the Spicy Sesame ramen and dined in for sushi as well. Everything is good, but I still think the Tonkotsu is the highlight!

The miso broth was not bad, but the miso flavor dominated the rich pork broth, so I got less of the pork flavor. The noodles were firm, but I was disappointed with the scant toppings. My bowl only had 1 thin fish cake, 3 bamboo strips, and few wood ear mushroom strings (1 star off). Even the pork piece was small, about the size of 3 bamboo strips. Most other ramen places I have been to include an abundance of toppings or even a soft-boiled egg. I guess the ramen bowl here could fill a craving, but not one I would go out of my way for. One annoying thing that happened with us is that our waiter gave us the runaround to get an advertised $1 discount with a student ID (1 star off). My son showed his student ID and then the waiter said we have to download their app too. I downloaded it, but then he said the app account needs to be in my son's name. I then changed the account to my son's name and showed him. Then the waiter said the email needs to be his school email address. Eh, nowhere on Earth does a *restaurant* marketing app requires a student's school email address. Then he started asking if my son goes to college or high school, and that he needs to clear with his manager if a high school ID is okay. At this point, it just seems like he was trying to make things extra difficult for us. He eventually said he got "permission" from his manager to apply the $1 discount for my son's high school ID. Good Lord -- this is not worth it at this point and left a negative impression about the establishment.

    After a long day at HBS we went back over the river to dine at Bosso Ramen. Located across the…read morestreet from the Harvard Commons, Bosso is an izakaya-style restaurant featuring ramen. On a wet, rainy Boston evening we thought hot ramen would be just the thing. The menu is built around locally-sourced ingredients structured in three categories: sharable, sushi, and ramen. They also offer a slate of Japanese beers and Nihonshu. We started with hot Nihonshu but the only choice served warm is Gekkeikan. Now, Gekkeikan is a standard Nihonshu which is a good, if not great, rice wine. And while Gekkeikan started in Kyoto, anything served in the US with its label is actually brewed in California. We wanted the Nambu Bijin served warm but were told that was not an option. Nanbu Bijin is a great varietal from Iwate Prefecture which was our preference. It's odd that this is only offered chilled. We really urge the management to serve all of its Nihonshu warmed. For shareables we ordered the shishito, spicy salmon, and torotaku. The shishito were nicely roasted and served with a light ponzu. The quality of the peppers was eceptional and the serving was generous. The sushi is served as a hand held wrapped in nori and features tsukemono. The spicy salmon was an amply portioned but the torotaku was a bit lean in terms of quantity. Having said which, all three apps were tasty and of superior quality. Bosso offers a compelling number of Ramens that differentiate not on broth, which is customary, but on degree of spice and the choice of meats. The broth here is a superb tonkotsu that would pass muster in Sapporo. Bosso also offers just one size which, in the event, was a more than satisfactory serving. We both opted for the umami version which is generously portioned with scallions and kikurage. The boiled egg was done to perfection - that happy place between a hard and soft boiled yolk. The pok was tasty but was wanting in terms of quantity. Each bowl included two very thin slices. At the end of the day, a great ramen should have more pork - either chasu or kakuni - so we found this to be a disappointment. Our server is from Shizuoka and we enjoyed hearing of her journey from Japan to Cambridge. She was attentive without being obtrusive. The interior is dark and practical and somewhat reminiscent of some of the great hole in the wall ramen shops we frequented in Tokyo. Overall, despite some blemishes, Bosso was an enjoyable meal and we will definitely make our way back in the future. It is busy so we recommend making reservations.

    This should be 3.5 stars at the very best, but there is no such option…read more An interesting place, really gives you a tavern feel with rustic wooden tables. However, the seating is uncomfortable, for sure for the large parties. There were 8 of us, and we were perched on the uncomfortable high chairs. Food is okay, nothing exciting. Gyoza was not bad, chicken karaage was I think made from the dark meat which I personally don't appreciate. Karami ramen was not bad, nicely spicy. Very good service, attentive, friendly and timely, which was a saving grace for this visit. Note also that the place was super loud when we got to our table at 8 pm, it was impossible to talk.

We weren't greeted or anything and we just stood there and waited until I asked if we could sit upstairs. I'm not sure if we were suppose to get seated on our own or what. The menus were paper and were really dirty, old, and ripping apart. Tables and chairs were sticky. We almost wanted to get up and leave but we decided to stay because we heard the ramen was good. Off the bat, the menu seems pretty limited compared to what we saw online (tik tok, instagram) so we didn't get to order what we came for. We went with a basic tonkotsu ramen and out of all 3 of us, we did not like the tonkotsu ramen. The broth didn't have much flavor and the noodles were bland, the only thing that saved the dish was the pork. We also got several appetizers, the chicken wings were really good.

We walked into a space that is on the smaller side, but the layout makes it feel warm and inviting, with a nice upstairs seating area that adds a little extra charm. The lighting is soft, and the overall atmosphere encourages settling in for a warm meal rather than rushing through a quick stop. The menu has a good variety of Japanese comfort food beyond just ramen, including bao buns, karaage, gyoza, and sushi-inspired dishes. The ramen selection includes options like miso tonkotsu, signature ramen, lobster ramen, and mushroom ramen. The bowls are hearty and come with generous toppings, making it a solid choice when you are looking for something filling on a colder day. We tried the miso tonkotsu, and the broth had a rich, savory depth that paired well with the noodles and toppings, though the flavor can vary depending on what you order. Some bowls have a richer depth while others feel lighter, so choosing the right broth matters. The bao buns and appetizers are also worth exploring if you want to try more than one item, with the karaage offering a crispy, juicy contrast to the heavier ramen bowls. Service adds to the experience, with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere that makes the small space feel more personal. The staff checked in at the right moments and kept the pacing of the meal comfortable without hovering. It is the type of place that works well for a casual lunch, a quick dinner, or warming up with a bowl of ramen after walking around Cambridge. Waku Waku is a solid ramen option in Harvard Square, especially when you are craving a cozy bowl rather than a more formal dining experience. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is inviting, and the menu covers enough ground to satisfy both ramen cravings and a wider range of Japanese comfort food.
