Flavor Boom - Boston

Overall: 4.5/5We visited on a Saturday 5pm and were quickly greeted by lovely staff. I came as part of the Yelp Elite deal.Service: 5/5Food:- Beef Rendang (4/5): as an Indonesian, I have high standards for this classic dish. Flavor Boom did an excellent job melding the savory flavors, complemented by the soft sweet potato bites. I only wish the dish had a bit more five spice seasoning and pepper. the yellow chili sauce was a great addition.- Tiramisu (4/5): delicious, medium is perfectly sized; wished for a bit more depth of flavor, but this is from a self-proclaimed tiramisu snob

Fantastic rendang bowl. Great atmosphere. I mean, Daft Punk, spice girls and Paul Simon in a row? This is home! Kid-friendly service with a smile.

I usually get the burgundy braised beef but this time I got the tamarind chicken which left A LOT to be desired. It was very dry with no sauce like the picture appeared to have. There was overall no real flavor as well.

Absolutely amazing restaurant! I first came here for a Yelp event, but I loved it so much that 3 days later, I came back!This is a fast-casual restaurant specializing in slow cooked dishes from Europe and Asia. I've tried lots of things here, and my favorite is the Beef Rendang. It's an incredibly complex, flavorful slow cooked beef stew from Indonesia, and I'd recommend this one if it's your first time here. I got the Burgundy braised beef this time, a savory and tender beef and carrot stew. The carrots and tomatoes in the dish give the beef a hint of sweetness, and I couldn't stop eating it.There's a lot of options on the menu, from spicy dishes to completely mild ones, there's beef, pork, seafood, vegetarian... definitely check this place out- there will be something for everyone!

I ordered the vegetable stew and it was phenomenal. I could not believe the mix of flavors I was experiencing, but do yourself a flavour (sorry I had to do it) and get this dish. Parking can be found on the street (may need to walk a little) or there is a lot in the back. You'll order through an iPad and it does not take long at all to receive your order. You can also order ahead and pick your order up.

I was very surprised of how juicy and soft the meats were! The braised beef was definitely my favorite- it literally melts in your mouth. The flavors reminds me of my families home cooked meals!

This was my first time trying this place. I did not go in person but rather had it delivered to me at work. I didn't know what to get but I made my decision based on existing Yelp pictures. I selected the red glazed pork bowl. When I read the description, I was turned off by the seasoned soy sauce (I'm normally not a fan of soy sauce) so I was very close to requesting for them not to add it but decided to leave it as is. The first observation I made was that the food was a bit greasy so definitely not something to eat if you're on a diet. But, the green beans were good; maybe just a minute or two over cooked. The rice was flavorful and plentiful for the portion of meat. The meat had so much flavor. It was tender, it literally pulled apart with very little effort. It was savory but also a minor sweet kick in the first few chews. I would try other meals on their menu. The price for this meal is reasonable. The portion looks small at first but it's actually quite filling and is packed with a lot of meat.

The boomin beef was delicious!! I was preggo at the time so i thoroughly enjoyed those leftovers for days. The meat was so flavorful and tender. Aptly named. Very friendly service and clean environment.

I ordered a regular size of Beef Rendang. The order, which came almost instantly, had a good portion of soft, tasty beef. However, it didn't taste Indonesian at all. I didn't perceive any coconut or Indonesian spices. The dish tasted like what I make at home, an American style beef stew.The counter person was pleasant.

Good food and tender meat! Bread roll was a bit dry, tangy tamarind chicken was good, but needed some more tamarind for my liking.
