★★★★★ 5.0 Amy Chernata · Jan 2026

We stopped by for lunch. The food was very good. My kids (5 and 7) got the cheese kimbap and ramen to share. They loved it. We also ordered the bibimbap and that was great. Overall the food and service were great.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kathryn Langlois (bugscrap) · Jan 2026

Pretty alright! The curry was great but I wish there were more. Veggies cooked perfectly. Staff was very kind! The katsu breading was delicious but for a $6 add on I wish the chicken wasn't so thin! The boba tea tasted kinda watery and they use the cheaper boba...

★★★★★ 5.0 Jordan · Feb 2026

Highly recommend! Everyone here is so friendly and ready to help with the menu if needed. I had the spicy miso ramen and it was the best ramen I’ve ever had. 10/10!!! If you’re in the area, this is a must try!

★★★★★ 5.0 Fiona · Mar 2026

Just tried this place out for the first time, and I must say the food and owner were great! The Ddeokbokki was the perfect texture, and the Korean wings and crab Rangoons were awesome in flavor and texture as well! My absolute favorite was the Japanese curry though!. The sauce was amazing, and the crunch on the chicken cutlet was perfect! Over all great experience and I will be back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Mr. G · Mar 2026

Stopped in for lunch and everything was delicious. The Bibimbap beef was amazing they made it spicy just how I like it. The bulgogi rice bowl was also really tasty, and the ramen was great too. If you’re in Hamden and looking for good Japanese and Korean-style food, definitely swing by Donburiya Cafe and grab a bite. Highly recommend!
