    Tea service
    Stephen H.

    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

    I am obsessed with this ramen- it is the best that I have found in the area. The food is always prepared well and the dining space is relaxing and unique. PEOPLE!! Go try Ramen O Bowl- you won't regret it.

    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

    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!

    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    Malaysia curry ramen

    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.

    Han Cold Noodles
    Meghan G.

    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!

    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.

    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.

It was crispy on the outside and really good with the ramen. We also tried some of the sushi, which was okay. Nothing particularly stood out to me, but it was still decent. I'd probably stick with the ramen and karaage next time since those were definitely the highlights for us. Service was good too! Everyone was friendly and attentive, and overall we had a nice experience. Would come back when I'm craving ramen!

    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.

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. Overall, pretty disappointed. It was our first time here and we will not be coming back.

    Four words: spicy cold niku udon. The signature is also good!…read more I've been a fan of Yume ever since I found out about it when I went to Tufts for college. It was the Asian-American community's go-to spot for dine-in, take-out, or both! This was back when they had their location in the Lesley University food court too - people would be lining up for 30+ minutes to get a coveted seat at one of their humble seats. I look fondly on when they would yell "perfect" whenever I finished my bowl, praising how I slurped every freshly cut udon noodle and devoured every ounce of broth or crispy tempura bit they put in there. The new location is just a few stores down, still in/out of the Lesley University mall area. It has a nice ambiance and feels less cramped. While I miss the "perfect" yelling, the flavor still tastes just as good even if it's gotten an insane amount of hype since then. Would highly recommend ordering takeout if you're in a rush - they do it very efficiently, both at the original Cambridge location and the new Seaport location too.

We also tried the hot udon, which was really good too and definitely worth trying if you prefer something warm. Service was also super quick, which I appreciated. I will say I had pretty high expectations because of how hyped this place is, and personally I don't think it completely lived up to the hype for me.
