Overpriced mediocre ramen.

Where to begin.....shall we start with the quality of food, or the price? We wish the best for all interested in this establishment, and for that reason we must be forthright. Neither of the above met expectations. Upon looking at the menu, we found that the ramen here was more expensive than almost any other place in the Boston area. We were willing to pay that premium for what we believed would be quality ramen. On the contrary, the ramen turned out to be below average in all honesty. The tonkotsu broth was good, but otherwise the noodles were basically like wet spaghetti, the pork seemed like it had just been microwaved, and the dishes were overall lacking necessary flavor and spice. In short, this was sub-par ramen at best at a jacked up price. Save your time, save your money, save your tastebuds. We advise you try another spot.

Americanized Japanese ramen. (Details see below) ✅Pork: The taste of pork is very good. Mega has shredded pork and 2-3 big pork cube. Appropriate fat and thin ratio. ✅Noodle: Appropriate level of chewy and it absorbed enough flavor from the soup. Sadly mega doesn’t have enough noodle. (It focuses more on amount of meat) âŒBroth: I feel like it’s trying to go for the tonkotsu thick base, but the flavor is not strong enough. It’s like drinking water + umami. Good tonkotsu base is very thick, strong umami flavor and smell, oily (like drinking a bone marrow soup). If trying the light base (like shoyu), then this is too thick. âŒOnion: The onion in ramen was too strong that it covers other flavors. Scallion is normally what ramen use, but onion is pretty rare … if you want to put onion, maybe find those with weaker taste and slice it (rather than dice it)? âŒSeasoning (put in middle): Sadly I’m not capable to tell what the seasoning is. But just be careful (if you are reading this). It’s super spicy (it’s the onion/wasabi kind of spicy) and my mouth was dead. Either dissolve it into the soup or take it out, your call. â“Egg: The color was dark so I guess it’s not that fresh. But I didn’t get stomach problem so debatable. $25.68 spent. Not cheap
