    "All About Pork" ramen.
    Alejandro C.

    Had the "All About Pork" and the food was incredible, the quantity was plentiful and the taste was delicious, the only thing I didn't enjoy was the texture of the egg.

    Continues to be one of my favorite dining locations in the near campus area, absolutely stunningly delicious food, super clean and slick insides with a super charming ambience. Everything here is delicious. And to top it off, everyone that works there is super kind and attentive So good I had a fancy pants date here!!

    The Caveman
    Kevin F.

    First time trying Boru Boru tonight. Mrs. and I went for our date night. Parking was simple, as it was at the less busy end of a strip mall, which was fortunate as that area is quite busy. We were warmly greeted when we entered and the gal behind the register helped us get our orders sorted. I ordered the Caveman as a burrito along with a side of seaweed salad. My meal choice came with a free drink, which was cool. My wife ordered the Ribeye Bulgogi bowl. The food was excellent. The Caveman was a mix of traditional and unique flavors. The portion was HUGE to where I couldn't finish the burrito. The seaweed salad was good too, but more lettuce and cucumber than seaweed salad - but what do you expect for $3.50! It was still good. My wife's bowl was good, she said, but I didn't steal a bite to report on it. Restaurant was clean and so were the bathrooms. We'll definitely be back to try their other items.

    It was a Friday and I was exhausted. I wanted something comforting and warm after a tough week, so ramen came to mind. I had no desire to leave the house, so I searched on Uber Eats and Boru Boru came up. Now I had already heard good things about this restaurant, mainly that the food was delicious but that portions could be bigger for the price. I have to concur after my delivery. I ordered some edamame and a tonkotsu ramen with the spice pack. Apparently the spices are extra. What in the world? Have never seen this before. That said, the portions for the edamame and tonkotsu ramen were appropriately-sized, but this is America where portions tend to be massive, so this was a little bit of a letdown, and mind you, this is after adding an extra egg. Nevertheless, everything was packaged well and everything arrived piping hot. I would definitely have their food again.

    My newest obsession .. the food is so yummy. I have gotten the Bulgolgi bowl 3 times in the past two weeks. The boba is tasty, I really like the Mango one. Only thing to know is the Arnold Palmer boba is really really sweet. Overall a really great find, will be back soon of course!

    As a half Japanese spoiled by home cooking and living in San Francisco's Japantown for 3 years, I can confidently say that Boru Boru is the best place in town to get a good customizable ramen. Friendly people, fast service (way faster than Ur Bowl!) That tonkotsu is BOMB and I come on Sundays for the free 4 piece gyoza with entree. The food is pricey, but satisfies. I come here a few times a month and it's good for take out or eating in, whether you're alone or with friends. The place is welcoming and well-lit with a great vibe. There's usually loud pop music playing, but the place itself is well organized and always extremely clean. Staff works hard and it shows. Only thing is that I'd wish they stayed open past 9pm. One of my fave spots in town!

    Visiting from out of town and this place is SO GOOD. Speedy service and the salmon skin in the Caveman burrito is to die for. The burrito is huge, FYI.

    all about the pork ramen, seaweed salad, gyozas, and pork belly baos
    Gabriela L.

    Best place in town for a pork belly ramen. The all about the pork is my go to every time I come in. I have yet to try a lot on their menu because that ramen is just perfection every time I order it. It comes topped with a black garlic oil and miso ground pork and I can never get enough of it. The noodles themselves are delicious and the perfect amount. Sundays are ramen Sundays, so with every order of ramen you get an order of gyozas. Boru Boru is always so clean and they have great customer service. I occasionally consider other options and the staff is always so patient with me when it comes to ordering.

    Pork Belly
    Amie S.

    I love the daily deals that this restaurant offers! On Sundays, there is free gyoza with a ramen purchase. The spicy pork ramen was my favorite entree, the soup was flavorful and the noodles were a good chewy texture. The pork belly rice bowl had very soft and flavorful pork, and good sushi rice. I was not the biggest fan of the bulgogi beef bowl or the Soft Shell Crab option, so I wouldn't recommend those two. This is a nice quick lunch or dinner spot with a pretty healthy variety!

    Came here again and tried the sushi burrito. Honestly it's very good and I appreciate the staff for helping me choose this dish. It's really filling and I recommend sushi lovers to try this!

I did return to give them $47+ of MY money and a $5 tip to their counter help. See the new attached graphic of their immature & ungrateful response. Therefore, I'm definitely done with this business! The response that I finally received yesterday to a review left almost TWO months ago lacked accountability, appreciation, maturity & tact. They don't care about their customer experience. Notice they didn't rebuke anything written in the first review. But you took MY money?! So, thank you Pho Me for proving yourself to me & others just how NASTY & RUDE you truly are! 2.12.26 - 7.24pm - It is disheartening that I've finally chosen to leave this type of review for this place after TWO YEARS of being a customer! However, tonight's interaction with the lady who answered the phone was enough for me to finally decide that they would no longer get my money. The 4 foot tall sister of the duo who owns this place is ALWAYS nasty, rude, agitated, snarky, impatient and a host of other adjectives. And if her daughter is there she really has bad interactions with customers. She acts like she hates being at the restaurant; I'm not understanding why she is consistently put at the front of the house when they know that she's bad for business! She answered the phone to take my order. I wanted the traditional bo hue. Normally, (even when she has answered in the past) I have to specify which protein to put in a traditional bo hue. I know Vietnamese cuisine enough to know about what is traditional or not. So because my traditional bo hue has been mistakenly made with rare beef or flank in the past I asked (like I normally do) whether rib meat would be in it. She nastily said, "I don't know the type of meat tonight but if you asked for traditional, then rib meat will be in it." Huh ?! Now, I could have simply said ok. Rather what immediately threw me was her sarcastic tone and saying that she didn't know what type tonight but.... What?! Also, I live too far away for me to go home with the wrong soup; although it has happened in the past. So she just proved herself to be nasty and a liar; she also proved herself to be lazy. Why can't you put me on hold and check what is available tonight? Again, some days and hours they will accept an order for traditional and still not have or not include the rib meat. They are known to be inconsistent with ingredients on occasion. So, I just wanted to be sure. There have been times where this same 4 foot tall sister of the duo will say that it was the person who answered the phone as the reason my order was made wrong. I let her know that her behavior was extreme tonight. She said, "I'm sorry"; yet continued the same off-putting behavior and tone. So, now she has proven herself condescending, as well. She asked, "do you want to give me your name." I responded with, "well if that's what's needed for me to get my order." She started saying "well if you want to get your order....." I cut her off by reminding her that her customer service was off-putting. There are times when they don't ask for names on call-in orders. I let her take my order and name. And honestly I started towards that place to get the order. However, I reminded myself that my dollar and reviews across all platforms are mighty. I did not show up and I hope that she spent time watching that bowl of bo hue with high hopes that she would talk that way to me and still get my money. I have had extensive conversations with both sisters and the shorter, younger one is always RUDE, NASTY, SARCASTIC, AND IMPATIENT. And always complaining about something or somebody! My value as a 2 year customer just went bust tonight. Do yourself a favor by choosing one of these other places (listed below) with traditional Vietnamese soups and way better attitudes; avoid Pho Me unless you want a similar experience to mine. - Thành Tâm Sandwhiches and Treats - Pho 7 - Midtown Noodles - Ur Bowl

I couldn't finish my hot sake because it tasted off. The wasabi and ginger even looked funky (I will say the wasabi had a nice kick). Best part of my meal was leaving. The miso soup was the only decent part. I should have learned my lesson from previous Asian fusion places but I guess I trusted the reviews on this one. It's clear to me; a lot of people don't have an educated palate.

He took the time to explain how hot pot works, helped set up my table, and offered excellent broth and food recommendations. The broth temperature was perfect, and everything cooked just right. The restaurant itself felt a bit dated, but the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Even though it was quiet and I was dining alone, the attentive service and conversation made the experience enjoyable. While the location is somewhat hidden in a storefront area, this spot has strong potential and could be a big hit in a college town like Tallahassee with FSU, TCC, and FAMU nearby. Overall, it was well worth the visit, and I would definitely recommend Volcano Hot Pot.
