    Malaysia curry ramen
    Luke Z.

    the malaysian curry ramen was pretty good, but the noodle quantity was small. also the noodles themselves weren't that appealing. service was a tad slow, we spent a lot of time chatting while waiting for food. the ambiance was nice, there was nice chill music going on in the background

    Tea service

    Real cute interior for about 15 people. Lots of choices. Shacha was tasty and creamy but light on sprouts and spinach. Tofu was nicely seasoned. Can only remove items and online ordering is limited to one. Can only add noodles extra for $2. Several starters on wall brown paper menu with more to come Love tea service in a real heavy duty fancy pot and china cup. Hope to get back to try other items. No states or dessert this trip Pros: Lots of choices. Ramen was excellent, Service and decor Cons: Parking

    Spicy Ramen

    The cuisine was delicious! The noodles' flavor caught me off guard. They went above and beyond what I had anticipated. I returned for lunch twice! All of the ramen joints I've tried in Massachusetts have been decent, but this one is excellent. It's vegan and nearby, and it's my #1 favorite. Simply ideal

    For such a large city, Boston has surprisingly few vegan restaurants. Cue Ramen O'Bowl, the city's first ever fully plant-based ramen shop. I stopped by on a Sunday for lunch and was impressed by the menu - there's ramen of course, but there's also smoothies, salads, sushi bowls, and even dessert! I went with the spicy ramen bowl which was indeed spicy! The broth is a lovely bright red and the serving size is generous. My partner ordered the smoked seitan bowl and ate every last bite. I definitely recommend enjoying a Thai tea with your meal. Last, for dessert, we shared the tiramisu, which was absolutely delightful. I'm looking forward to my next visit!

    Great tasty for a whole vegetarian noodle soup! Enjoy it with empty bowls !! We just look for a quick lunch and enjoy the delicious food

    We walked by Ramen O Bowl for months wondering when it'd open, and it's finally here. They had a promotion for a free drink with a ramen or rice bowl purchase, so it was the perfect time to try it out. Walking in, the interior was nice, bright, and clean. I dug the skylight as well. You can order in a few different ways: via a QR code at your table, at one of the machines at the counter, or in-person. The staff was super nice. They did bring the wrong dish to me, but were quick to correct it. I ordered the shoyu ramen and liked the noodles and all of the different things that came with it. Although I'm not a coffee person, the Thai iced coffee was good and something that I'd get again. It hit the spot of not being too sweet or bitter for me. While I'm curious about the other items on the menu, it might take some time for me to get a craving for Ramen O Bowl again. There's a lot of eating options in the area at this price range, and some of them either have an item that I really like or they feel like a better value. In all, I appreciate having a solid vegan place here.

    Ramen O' Bowl is finally open. They should have soft opening hours beginning around 7/5 or 7/6. We tried out many of the noodle items on the menu and numerous smoothies plus the green Thai tea. Our favorite noodle dishes were the Schacha ramen soup and the Tahini cold noodles. We also tried many of the spicy ramen soup and cold noodle dishes as well, I liked the Korean cold noodle the best from those, but I will say I don't generally love spicy food. We didn't try any of the dessert or sushi bowls since we've had them all many times at their prior restaurant (Bayberry) and wanted to focus on trying the new items, but I will say their vegan desserts are delicious, the tiramisu is one of my favorites and the sushi bowls are yummy too and use a black forbidden rice mixture. Ruby, the owner, makes her own vegan noodles for the soups and came up with all of the recipes. Please note that the restaurant uses both fresh peanuts and peanut butter in many recipes, so if you are allergic to nuts, please take this in to consideration. The menu doesn't have any ramen dishes currently gf, but many of the sushi bowls and smoothies can accommodate gf dietary requirements.

    Ruby the proprietor of this restaurant was open for a special Xmas buffet. She featured some of her favorite recipes. Everything was super tasty with a special shout out to the fresh cucumber avocado and sweet potato sushi rolls, the stir fry vegetable ramen with home made brown noodles and the mango curry - a perfect combination of sweet and spicy. The seitan was yummy and took on the flavors of the various dishes she made. Cambridge is lucky to have this reasonably priced clean tasty vegan restaurant. Ruby owned a vegan restaurant in Woburn for 6 years prior to opening ramen o bowl in Cambridge.

    Malaysia curry ramen
    Michael W.

    WOW! Best vegan ramen in Cambridge. One of the best vegan ramen bowls I've had in the US, as good if not better than red white on newbury. You're going to love this place. Malaysian Curry Bowl - 5/5. Curry broth was delicious, ramen noodles chewy, and toppings were excellent (soy protein really nice) Coffee Cake - 5/5. Has actual coffee flavor. Ask for it warmed up, really fluffy and airy. Thai Iced Tea - 3.5/5. Was okay! The soy milk flavor was definitely present but overall it was pleasant. Steamed BBQ Buns - 4.5/5. Really soft, light and fluffy!! Felt a little pricey for the portion size, but my girlfriend loved them.

    Very friendly service and good food. The steamed dumplings and bbq steamed buns were the surprise stars of the meal. The ramen was good and the vegetables especially fresh. The space was cute and well air-conditioned.

    Han Cold Noodles

    Found this little gem while visiting the Harvard Natural History Museum. It's always nice to find a vegan place where you can order anything without worrying about dairy. The chef was also helpful with my husband's allergy. I ordered the cold Han Noodles, which were fresh and had a nice kick. The restaurant was sunny, airy, and modern in ambiance. Wonderful service and delicious food. I would definitely visit again!

Did not show up for many many years, suddenly I came here for Miso Ramen and bowl made my day. I ordered Regular size but I should have Large size, they have S, R, and L. Had to finish all soup. Kitchen work is super smooth in Zen spirit, soup and noodle was just perfect. Chashuu did not hit my new favorite bell but still good. Although I could use more green onion without upgrading order. Temperature of the soup and noodle done balanced well, I could not ask more. Great chef, staffs and very professional casual business mind, I will be coming back soon for Miso Ramen which I always have been asking at most of my Ramen Way All My LifeThanks !

    I tried the tsukemenつけ麺, and was a bit disappointed…read more.. Shoyu Tsukemen: The tsukemen noodles were much larger than the ramen noodles; a small portion had 200 grams of noodles, which were quite thick and chewy. The chashu叉焼 was stewed until tender, but the broth was extremely oily and had a strong porky smell, which was nauseating. Karaage: It was a little overcooked, but fresh and hot, so it was still pretty good. The sauce was a bit spicy, which was interesting. Aji-tama: The taste was neither good nor bad, but I found eggshell in it. After I reported this, the staff first asked if I had cut myself, and then readily gave me a refund, which was nice.

    Went to the Harvard location today and it was a great experience overall. I had the fried truffle…read morebeef baos (5/5) and the Tom Yum ramen with chicken substituted for pork (also 5/5). Both were full of flavor and really well done. My boyfriend ordered the Tonkotsu ramen and gave it a 3/5--he felt the broth was a bit basic and could have used more depth. Compared to our visit to the Chinatown location, the Harvard location was infinitely better. The food quality, wait time, and service were all top-notch, and the flavor profile overall was stronger. At Chinatown, we tried the Pork Gyoza (4/5), Samurao duck baos (4/5), signature ramen (3/5), and the sake (2/5). We'd definitely return to the Harvard location.

    Waku Waku Ramen in Harvard Square is a cozy little ramen spot with a darker, more intimate interior…read morethat gives it a comfortable neighborhood feel. 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.
