Customer Reviews
Five of us visited last week, all ramen lovers and very much looking forward to the meal. Unfortunately, before we even sat down, I noticed something concerning. While waiting to use the restroom, I saw used tablecloths placed together with chopsticks that appeared to be intended for use on tables. Seeing utensils in contact with visibly dirty linens—especially before eating—was an immediate turnoff. On a positive note, my vegan ramen was quite good. I enjoyed the nutty flavor and texture, and it was easily the best dish of the evening. My friends felt their non-vegan ramen options were just okay. One friend ordered a toro hand roll, but it did not taste like toro. The QR-code ordering system is very convenient, allowing each person to order and pay individually without the hassle of sp
A Japanese ramenラーメン shop recommended by a friend from Guangzhou! I was so addicted that I ate there for three days straight. I have to trust the taste of Guangzhou - the food capital of China - people! 🥹 Enmi Ramen: Salty. Who came up with the brilliant idea of using yuzu柚子 skin and yuzu oil? The gentle bitterness and lively fragrance of citrus are subtly hidden in the aftertaste, not only softening the rich, oily tonkotsu豚骨 broth but also reducing the pungent smell of the finely chopped scallions, leaving only a crisp texture and just the right amount of aroma. I never thought I'd love scallions in soup, and I never thought that the method of using citrus skin to remove odors from the refrigerator would be applied to ramen… The noodles are Hakata博多-style thin noodles, very thin yet ve
Went here for dinner a couple days ago and the staff were super welcoming! I got the umami ramen. I enjoyed it immensely, however it was slightly too salty and the egg was just average. What really stands out is the service. The staff shouts a welcome as you walk in and both the hostess and waitress are amazing.
Stopped by Bosso around 5 PM for an early dinner on a Saturday. The whole staff shouts out a welcome when you walk in, which is fun and sets a nice tone. The place looks great and service was on point throughout. Good is beautifully plated! We started with the edamame shiromiso hummus and ume fried gyoza. The hummus had nice flavor and came with chips. In my opinion, it would've been better served with bread. The gyoza though? Absolutely killed it. Best thing we had all night. We moved on to sushi and got the spicy salmon and tuna avocado hand rolls. The spicy salmon was so good we ordered another round. The tuna avocado was fine, nothing to write home about. Next, we ordered the karami ramen (we added an egg). This dish was a disappointment. It's advertised as spicy, which was why we or
Very busy place, be sure to make a reservation! When we arrived on a Saturday evening, I overheard that the wait for 4 was 1.5 hours. The vibe is very dark (maybe a little too much?) There is bar seating and tables of 4. The yuzu soda was really good and one of us got one of the cocktails which was also great. Our party of 4 got a wide range of their ramens which were all great. The noodle shapes complimented the broths. The vegan one was also very good. My only comment would be that the portion sizes seem to be on the smaller side. Overall, lovely dinner and would recommend.
