Ebisuya Japanese Noodle House

Instantly greeted with a polite, smile and a friendly demeanor. Price is fair considering where the economy is tanking into with inflation. Show you ramen who is a little on the salty side but made up for it with the amazing tenderness of the chashu pork. The spicy miso soup was to the liking of my date at a Japanese spice lover that leaves you not burning for more but instead satisfied.

***Boston Ramen (Pop Up Review)***Came here yesterday during dinner time and my review on their ramen is meh (okay). Not bad nor good. I can't stay it's one of the best I've had in MA. I have ordered Pork and Egg Ramen, while my friends ordered Spicy Miso. It was warm (not hot), undercooked noodles, salty broth, and plain for $21.50. Presentation is also very basic.Honestly, it's mediocre. I give them props for being creative and bringing in new vibes with the little door window for solo customers. Other than this, ramen was not impressive and overpriced for what they offer on their menu. Service is great and friendly staffs. However, it's not enough to come back as a returning customer. As an fyi, street parking can be challenging before 7pm. Garage across the street is also very small and can be filled up quickly.

They completely changed the atmosphere of this place. They no longer have any movie posters on the walls. They put in a new "entertainment system" divider that lets you eat while watching a random show. It's a little odd to see this. This is popular in Japan now and I guess they are trying to make it a thing here in the US.They also changed the menu and made the ramen more expensive from $17 to $25 with less ingredients and poorer quality. Though the owner assured me that they will go back to the old menu in a month as this is just a temporary change. They also changed their name to "Boston Ramen." I'm assuming that they are trying to cater to more casual customers with these changes. In my opinion, they loss their identity as "Ebisuya Noodle House" with such changes. The old menu tasted way better and the pricing was much more reasonable. Alas, at the end of the day, it's a basic ramen shop. I will have to come back in a month to see if they do revert back to their old menu. Kudos to them for trying to make a change and experimenting with new styles; it just didn't work out with me. Hopefully they find their rhythm sooner than later and find success as a business. The owner still seems really upbeat and happy though!

Came here for dinner on a Friday evening and we were lucky that this place wasn't too busy when we got here - upon leaving though a larger party had come in and since the space was small, they took up most of the seats; for that reason, I'd probably try to be flexible or come earlier. This is an order first before getting seated casual spot which suits ramen pretty well. They have a good sized menu with a variety of choices so it wasn't too hard to pick - the food also came out relatively quickly which was nice. Prices were a bit expensive honestly for the quality of food, but the ramen itself wasn't too bad so I suppose it's worth it for the occasional treat. The noodles were well cooked and the flavor wasn't too bad, I probably just wouldn't come back often given the cost. Overall, a solid choice for ramen in the Malden area. Thanks, Ebisuya!

It's a solid 4.5/5 in our book but we always round up ;) this place is the 3rd on our list of best ramen in Boston and for the right reasons. The broth is very flavorful (we always get the spicy special miso). But it's the 3rd on our list because the eggs in the ramen was poached (I dig but my boyfriend doesn't) instead of boiled and they use shiitake mushrooms but we prefer wood ears and there's cilantro on top which is unique. And they have takoyakis as an app! (I love takoyakis always but I'm a harsh critic for em and these didn't have a lot of octopus pieces and the sauce tasted a bit interesting). This place is wicked small but it's a nice spot to stop by on a rainy day if you don't want to wait in the rain with millions of ppl to get a bowl of ramen. Ooh and you order and pay at the front before sitting down!

I got the shoyu ramen. Price is a little hefty at $15.50, but I guess that might be closer to the standard for ramen nowadays?Meat wasn't as fatty as I liked, but still very tender and flavorful. Broth was amazingly rich and not too salty. I really liked the marinated shiitake, which added a nice umami bomb to the dish. Noodles had a nice chew.

This place is small and located right behind Malden Center Station. You walk in and order, pay and find a seat. They prep your food then and there and it ends up only really taking 15 minutes. It was 18.50 for the special spicy ramen which is kind of expensive but given the economy, it's probably what every other place charges more or less. The front desk person was nice and super helpful. The spicy sauce is homemade which I found interesting and had a unique taste. The takoyaki was a little too doughy for me, but the outside was extra crispy. The soup was warm and flavorful. Overall, I think it was a solid experience with quick and easy service.

This place is a hidden gem. Although it is small but, the interior is a cool design. Lots of anime references on the walls. The ramen is delicious and I will come back again for more!

This is a small noodle house where you order and pay at the register. I got the yuzu shio ramen, and the yuzu flavor was subtle but discernible. The chashu were quite thinly sliced, which I might actually prefer over the thicker cuts, but I wish they gave more chashu for a $15+ bowl of ramen. The noodles were cooked perfectly with a slight chew to them. Next time I will try the shoyu ramen instead because the shio was a little too salty for me.

Flavors - 4.1/5Textures - 4.3/5Presentation - 4/5Value for Money - 4/5Would return? YesMust-try: Spicy Miso with Whole EggI love this humble, funky, high quality Ramen. They did a good job with the broth and flavors. Both shoyu and spicy miso were super delicious and had complex flavor. The spicy miso had a nice balance of heat and sweetness. The noodles really lacked texture, they were kind of flat and soft, but nice flavor. The egg was soft but still maintained the shape, so it was really satisfying to eat! The pork is really thin but flavorful and juicy. I wish it would've had more broth! Each ramen costs between $14-16, which is fair compared to what you get. The service is great as well.
