Wen's Yunnan Noodle & Ramen 云南米线

A low-key restaurant, I can't wait to come back to Boston for some ramen. Don't rely on the online menu on Google because the prices have gone up. The creamy miso corn ramen is simply divine. The scallion pancake is excellent. The mala ramen is really spicy, but that's the point. The service isn't very smiley, but the food more than makes up for it.

Was hesitant to try this because of the reviews and options and their AI-generated menu, but these dishes were fire. 🔥 The mala beef noodle soup is just so numbingly tasty and is probably the only restaurant where you can get it in Back Bay. It's spicy but addictive and well-made, as it didn't feel too greasy. The noodles were alright, but the soup was definitely the highlight of this dish. The spicy shredded chicken with peanuts was chilled and refreshing, definitely a plus for additional protein. Didn't get to try the Mala Beef over rice, but I'm sure it was tasty as well. I dropped the star because of the AI generated menu, it took me a really long time to figure out what I wanted to eat because the pictures didn't really give the food justice. I would suggest using AI only for menu

Went to Wen's for the first time on a rainy, humid day with a group of friends. The staff were quick to combine tables for adequate seating and explained their newest menu can be accessed via QR code. This was actually super helpful as the QR code is linked to your location. Just a few minutes after I made my own tab for their Miso Ramen & Crab Rangoon it was right in front of me, delicious and piping hot. Onto the taste - the Miso Ramen had a golden, savory and creamy broth, the meat, vegetables, and noodles soaked this in which made each bite even better. Their crab rangoons had a nice and crispy texture which i enjoyed. The flavor complimented the duck sauce. I'll note here that the staff were attentive and friendly, refilling our waters and being close by to answer any questions we ha

It was easy to order, the waitress was nice and attentive, and the ramen was great. The price was ok.

The noodles had a nice texture, and the flavors of the tomato soup were strong although they weren’t my personal preference. The gyoza and scallion pancakes were crunchy and tasted good :)
