Miraku Boston

You can enjoy real, authentic Japanese ramen here. The flavors are great, the staff are kind, and the atmosphere is calm and cozy. My favorites are the Yaki Shoyu and the Miso ramen. I’ve already been here many times! They also have a stamp card, and if you collect nine stamps, you get one bowl of ramen for free so I definitely need to complete it!

In a neighborhood full of ramen, this is by far my favorite! A dear Japanese friend brought me here and I’m hooked. The location used to be another great Japanese restaurant, Shiki. Sadly it closed but Miraku has come to fill the hole it left in my stomach! Tasty and good price to value ratio (especially for the lunch special)! You can make the lunch special spicy for a few dollars more—so worth it on a cold winter day. Even sitting solo at the bar is mellow. They have an intriguing craft sake menu and a frequent eater’s stamp card. Lots of Japanese patrons come here which tells me it is catering to the large community in Brookline. Unlike other good ramen restaurants nearby there is no 45 minute wait list. Everyone who works here seems happy, and you can see the prep cooks through the w

Miraku serves a killer broth that’s good down to the last drop and the lunch combo is a perfect meal to reinvigorate your day. Food: The easiest way to explain my experience with this bowl is broth>noodle>toppings. The broth was so rich and soothing it elevated everything with it. The noodles were a great chewy carrier for the soup and the simple toppings gave variety of each bite. Service: The restaurant owner was very friendly with the customers and looked so happy to be serving us. Atmosphere: The garden level restaurant is the ideal spot for this gem of a restaurant. It makes it feel like an escape from the bustling city day.

My new favorite ramen spot in Boston! I might not have the best say as I am not a Ramen Connoisseur of American Japanese ramen, but I had absolutely not much of a complaint about this ramen, and oftentimes I find that whenever I have ramen in the US, it has the frequent problem of being too salty. I will say I paid an extra $2 for an egg that didn't have the quality flavoring of a typical ramen egg. However, overall this was really good. It wasn't too salty, had great flavor and the ramen noodle quality itself was still really good in my opinion.

Miraku Boston is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Japanese flavors. I’ve been here a few times and it never disappoints. The Yaki Shoyu Ramen has a rich, savory broth infused with umami-packed Rishiri Kombu and perfectly reduced soy sauce. It truly matches what you would eat in Japan. The Shio Ramen is light and refreshing with tender noodles and traditional toppings that make every bite comforting. The Miraku Katsu Curry is crispy, hearty, and full of flavor, served over rice with their signature curry broth. The Strawberry Cheesecake is creamy, tangy, and the perfect sweet finish. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and there is convenient parking, making it easy to enjoy a meal here. Every visit feels authentic, delicious, and completely satisfying.
