Straight forward and delicious. House made veggie stocks paired with artisan textured noodles. If you love Pork, the Tonkotsu Ramen is a classic representation of a bowl in Hakata, Japan.
Delicious ramen!!! This place is a gem, it's way too small to sit more than 10 people at a time, and it has only ramen, poke and donburi. You are sitting practically next to the owner while she is preparing the food and the service was very friendly.
We tried the donburi with beef and it was very good but the ramen was something else. I loved the tonkotsu, (savory flavor with many spices and a kick of ginger) but I would return to try the truffle ramen. There is also a vegan option which was delicious, although a bit too sweet for my taste.
Definitely a must try, don't bring a crowd or you will not fit, perfectly cozt for 2 people groups.

Coming in on a chilly weekend, we stumbled on this ramen restaurant near the hotel with low expectations.
I tried the Oisa Tonkotsu and the vegetarian ramen with shiitake. Both I had asked for the noodles to be slightly underdone as preference
Moe, the chef and owner, was quick to explain that the noodles in the vegetarian ramen were cooked to a specific temperature otherwise can become quickly overcooked. It was doable, but not recommended. I went with her suggestion and wasn't disappointed. I also learnt that the noodles are made with tomatoes, which would explain this familiar taste that wasn't quite just shiitake I tasted throughout the broth.
The Oisa Tonkotsu was my favourite however comparatively. Served hot, the broth was flavourful throughout without being too rich, the noodles springy and I loved the tang of the pickled vegetables and ginger. The meat was sliced thin, which I would've preferred more of but the extra soup and noodles I added made up for it. For those with bigger appetites, go this route.
Service is quick and efficient, but don't come here if you're in a hurry; the place fills up fast and there's usually a small line. Solid bowl of ramen wrapped in a friendly and cozy atmosphere. I recommend sitting at the bar and chatting with Moe, an absolute joy to chat with. You can tell she is very passionate about the food.
I'm coming back the next time I'm in Boston!
Excellent ramen! My shoyu broth is light but still has depth to the taste. The tomato base noodle is also a pleasant surprise to the taste and texture. Would definitely come back to try out more.
We were fan of Oisa when she was running the pop up shop in South Boston. So happy that she opens her own shop. I had the truffle shoyu today although there are many items on the menu that I wanted to try. Will definitely make my way back to the financial district to try more. PS, the waiter is handsome and super chilled (don't let my husband read this). PPS, don't let the line turn you away, table turnover here is pretty quick.
Absolutely lovely but small place. They had the most flavorful and perfect tonkotsu ramen! Perfect portions and seeing the chefs in action made the meal special
So basically I have a story to tell. Long story short, it was amazing. But let me tell my story...
It was a very hot day so me and my friends went to the closest Ramen shop nearby. When I entered, I was greeted by some very friendly and hospitable staff. They were very nice and kind. The customers of the shop, especially one named Jack, was very welcoming and cool. It all felt like a family business.
I ordered an Oisa Tonkotsu which was $14, and it was definitely worth it. It was of a very high quality and it had a near-perfect texture. I was impressed of how the quality of the Ramen in this shop was very near, or even better than large Ramen businesses.
I loved the experience throughout and I fully recommend this shop to Ramen lovers!
Very friendly and fast service. Perfect for a quick lunch in the middle of a work day since the counters usually only have single seating available! The mushroom in the vegetarian ramen was marinated in some kind of delicious sauce because it had so much flavor. They have vegetarian and vegan options as well as classic pork tonkotsu.
The vegetarian ramen was really good! I've always had regular pork-based ramen so I was really surprised at how flavorful it was. You pay before eating so it's a pretty fast meal if you're in a hurry. Service was really nice. Also, they serve dinner on Thursdays and Fridays. And the bathroom is next door in the tiki bar.
The two working we're very friendly service was quick. It's a small place, with very limited seating so you may wait a minute if you go at a busy time. It's supposed to be a quick in and out, though. Not ideal for a group of more than 2 probably, but definitely a great place to grab a bowl of ramen. They even have some vegetarian options.
