Shokudo

We always sit outside with our dog. The outside tables could be improved for stability. But the food and drinks here keep us coming back. We love the skewers for a late night snack and drink. Then we also tried the ramen and udon. Wow. For a small place in Hoboken… not bad at all! The udon broth is better than most places in Chicago. And I tried a bite of my hubby’s spicy ramen. It was so good. I can’t eat spicy food but it was tolerable for me. Don’t be fooled if you don’t see Asians eating here. It’s because it’s Hoboken.

Very quiet and comfortable ramen 🍜 shop at edge if Hoboken. Was large portions and reasonable prices. Looks like many locals come here. Parking 🅿️ can be tricky depending on day and time. But it's comfy they have Japanese cooking shows playing on the TVs and staff was friendly. It's long restaurant the food came out fairly quickly too

Love this place! Such a fun spot to hang out and catch up with friends 🍜 The ramen is so comforting and full of flavor, and the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming. I ordered the ramen, takoyaki, and fried ice cream. I’ll definitely be back - you’ve got to check it out!

Not salty, even late at night! Most Japanese ramen broths are too salty and leave you thirsty for hours, but this one isn’t. Honestly, it’s the best Japanese ramen I’ve ever had. I’ve been to many famous ramen spots in Little Tokyo, LA, and I’m a true food hunter. The kimchi here is the real deal—not a fake version. I’m Korean, so I know what authentic kimchi is. The kimchi ramen is amazing too. My only problem is that I’m gaining weight because I finish every last drop! :)

Spicy Pork Donburi • Meat was fresh and tender. • Spicy mayo added a nice kick. • Missing something to take it to the next level. Beef Nabe Udon • Noodles were slightly overcooked — I prefer more al dente. • Broth was decent (I liked it more than my boyfriend did). • Meat lacked flavor. • Loved the vegetables like mushrooms and peppers! • Might go for ramen next time. My boyfriend and I ended up here after exploring Hoboken — walking through the Hoboken Italian Festival and along the waterfront. The service was warm and welcoming. While I wasn’t blown away, everything was fresh, well-prepared, and c
