Yujo

As a ramen-lover, I recently came across Yujo and was happy I did! It's located in the same strip area as Starbucks & Another Broken Egg Cafe on Meridian with a wide variety of affordable ramen & bubble tea options -- including delicious vegan & vegetarian options.First, this strip area is quite large so there's ample parking, unlike some of the ramen spots downtown. Next, it's open later than some spots (until 8:30PM!) and is also available on DoorDash for pickup & delivery.Yujo also offers a rewards program via Toast which is great for frequent boba & ramen lovers like myself. I enjoyed a Lychee Mango Green Tea (didn't make it home it was so yummy ) and the Miso Vegetable ramen with egg & a bunch of added veggies to-go. Everything was packaged well and made the journey safely.They offer a straight & wavy noodle (but not the thick noodle like Jinya in Fishers which is my fav) but it was absolutely delicious. Next time I'd only change getting extra noodles because I had a lot of broth.Though there were diners and those grabbing to-go myself, the dining ambiance was calm, clean, and comfortable. It would be nice for date night, family dinner, or a quirky lunch spot. Definitely don't miss out on Yujo next time you're in the area!

This was such a hidden gem to me because I didn't know this has been here for the last few years. The staff is wonderful and the food was fulfilling . Definitely will be returning.

They have a great selection of teas. Milk teas and regular iced tea options. Their milk teas include a non-dairy milk option. They have traditional tea flavors or fruit flavored ones. They have more add-ins to the drink than just boba, like grass jelly (my favorite), Pearl boba, aloe vera. Their popular teas include the peach iced tea and the brown sugar milk tea. Their dining area includes about nine tables with chairs. Employees are really attentive and friendly. Parking is easy to find as they're located in a big shopping center.

Quite a wide variety on the menu- this is a casual restaurant with fast service atmosphere. The Tokyo bowl was tasty and the serving was generous. The garlic bowl was a bit spicy but equally delicious. Weeknight dinner and the place was hopping! They have many appreciative fans.

I would say this place is a hidden gem, but based on the reviews, it's not very hidden at all. Located in a strip mall off Meridian and 96th, it's easy to miss. I got Hokkaido miso and brown sugar genmaicha boba. My husband got the spicy ramen. Both tasted delicious, although completely different. The atmosphere is nice and quiet with some music playing in the background. It's a fast casual restaurant so you go up to the counter to order, but they bring you your food to the table and check in on you. Great spot dangerously close to my house!

Needed a ramen fix and decided to try another ramen spot in Indy. The fast food vibe was nice, and less stressful when I was trying to get my kids to eat outside of their comfort zone. Service was nice and polite, won't say they were great listeners since we had a few errors in our order. Ramen is salty to begin with but this seemed super salty, none of us finished our broth. The noodles were good and so was the pork. Doubt we would go back again with all the other options in the area at the same price point.

This place has trumped any other ramen place that I have been too or will ever go to. I've been here twice in the past two years and omg... I miss it so much I wish we had one in TN! Worth every penny!!!!The food is actually so good, the first time I went I had the Creamy Tonkotsu Ramen which I had ended up clearing my bowl, pork was tasty and had its own flavor. My partner has the Hokkaido Miso Ramen, his only opinion was that it was very strong and intense. I completely agree I had it my second time around and it does get a little tiring once you get close to finishing your bowl, love the flavor, it's just too rich the few times we had it. I also had the Fried Chicken Bites and they were good but a large portion of the chicken pieces were dry and over cooked/fried. I also don't think the price is fair for the small pieces of chicken you get. Granted that's not what you go for. Boba and any drinks here are pretty standard but I did get confused what 100% sugar meant, which literally just means standard sugar amount, LOL.Service is great, the staff was really nice and were patient with us! Ambiance was a chill and quiet, not very many people in at once the times that I had went. Overall would highly recommend! If I'm ever in Indiana again I will always make it a goal to stop by. As always don't yuck anyone's yum!

I like how quick it was. It was also super convenient. The service was GREAT. I had some good conversations with the girl at the register. I've had better ramen but the service and convenience would bring me back for sure. The mango drink I got was really really good!

Creamy tonkotsu...notGood flavors, but water down tonkotsu soup would be how I describe our experience. Honestly, should be much richer if you're gonna advertise as authentic/creamy.Fried chicken appetizer was solid. Mix of dark/white pieces.

Go quick before the seasonal drinks change! You don't want to miss out on the Passion Fruit Jasmine. This is insanely flavorful. I went for 50% sweetness and it was spot on, didn't even need toppings.For the ramen, I went with their signature option: Yuzu Signature. I'm a Tonkatsu/pork girl through and through so this was definitely branching outside my comfort zone, but I'm glad I did! First of all, the tender cuts of chicken look as appetizing as pork! They are packed with juicy flavor, and I wasn't at all feeling disappointed I chose chicken over pork as something new. The noodles had the perfect chewy bounce. This dish had me missing the back alleys of Japan! Oh, and the marinated egg is a showstopper.
