Somenya Boston

Loved Somenya, and I've already been back a second time! I got the beef sukiyaki udon with an extra egg and it was delicious -- the noodles were nicely tender and the broth was savory. I would also recommend the takoyaki. Especially good choice for a cold day. You may need to get there early if you want a seat since they don't take reservations. It's very clean inside with nice decor and artwork.

Overpriced for the portion size. Flavor is decent. Yume has better portions for the price. Udon noodles are the thinner kind. Beef sukiyaki barely has beef. If anything, the appetizers are a better deal. Good service.

Our favorite spot for Japanese Udon and Soba in Boston thus far! They have most of the traditional options, but they also have some interesting Korean fusion dishes. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the mentsuyu and broths had a good balance of flavors. Service was friendly, and prices were reasonable. Reservations not available, so be prepared for a wait if you come around dinner time.

Honestly, major vibe. We really enjoyed our meal here! Food was spectacular. The person who took our order was also really kind (I didn’t want my poached egg and so they added it to my friend’s meal for free since he did want a poached egg extra on his rice bowl).

It was great! I ordered the duck roast soba while my friends got the beef sukiyaki udon and another soba dish. The decorations were very pretty and food was good in my opinion. I liked the giant ladles they give you to eat it with. 7-8/10, though one of my friends didn’t like the broth. Staff were also quite nice!
