My husband and I went in on a Tuesday night for dinner after hearing great things from a coworker. The reviews did NOT disappoint. We started with dumplings in my first bite I realized I had never tasted anything so fresh and flavorful. My husband and I each got our own ramen bowls he went with a hot and sour ramen while I had a chicken ramen. His dish had incredibly tender beef and a great spicy flavor. My chicken bowl held subtle fresh flavors that I wanted to spice up. The server brought over chili paste and a little dab did the trick! At the end of the meal I noticed another customer sipping Boba tea. I asked her server about it since I have never had that she quickly brought over a small sample for me to try and offered to buy me my very first Boba tea. The restaurant is clean and the servers are kind and work quickly. I will definitely be back! read more

Let's see... the pork baos and the signature Kaliubon ramen, the end, you're welcome. No, but seriously, their pork baos are yum: wrapped in a fluffy cloud of rice bun, the tender pieces of fatty pork are entangled in pickled veggies and cilantro, and they. are. good. They're some of the best baos I've had! Their ramens are all delish, though I'm partial to the Kaliubon, because I'm a spice-queen and I actually like the mala (numbing Szechuan style) spice that accompanies this dish. I believe all their noodles come with a soft egg, and it really is such a nice touch. The broths are also flavorful. A major plus! The only thing that stops me from giving this place the full five star rave review is that their bubble teas aren't quite up to snuff. Made from powder and way too sweet. And for whatever reason, whenever we order them, they always mess up our order, and give the person who ordered brown sugar jelly the tapioca balls and vice versa. Who knows why this is?? In the end, I'm just thrilled to have a ramen place that is quickly become our go-to for Japanese noods. Do yourself a favor and try this place out! read more

I don't have many experiences with ramen other than the instant varieties, but I know this has got to be some top tier ramen. Delicious would be an understatement. I got the curry ramen with chicken, my brother got the dry noodles (that weren't pictured here) and his girlfriend got the beef noodles. We were all blown away by how delicious it all was. Sweet, spicy, decadent and every bite really makes you want more. I don't think I've eaten anything as quickly as I ate that ramen. It was almost too good. We also got lamb bao buns which were also stunningly delicious. We were shocked to even see it on the menu since it's always pork everything (which my family doesn't eat). My only issue with those was that my bao bun was probably only half actual lamb meat and half muscle or something that I physically could not break down or chew through. That was kinda disappointing. The staff was also very very kind. We asked for our waitress's opinion on everything and she was very sweet answering all the questions. My brother also has a really bad seafood allergy so we just asked for extra care and there was no grumbling or discomfort when we asked which was really nice. We also got bubble tea which... was just alright. I got the Thai iced tea and my brother's gf got the cappuccino one. I liked how they were served though. The mason jar for these made them look really cute. Needless to say, they don't need to be liked for their bubble tea cause their ramen is just so good! I would give them 4.5 for the disappointing bao bun and meh bubble tea, but I figured I'd round them up since the atmosphere, workers, and ramen were so good. read more

Love Kaliubon! This was one of the first restaurants recommended to me when I first moved to the Hartford area. I've come at least 5 different times in a 2 month span and LOVE everything I've eaten thus far. Of their regular menu ramen, here is my list of must orders: -Tonkotsu Ramen: great bowl of ramen for any day. You can never go wrong with Tonkotsu at any ramen shop, and Kaliubon delivers here. Great, flavorful, umami broth filled with perfectly chewy noodles and topped with a slightly charred flavored chashu. Good, solid bowl and one of my top picks. -Tan Tan Mazemen: If you like Szchuan dan dan noodles, you'll enjoy this. Any time I've had dan dan noodles, they've always been different from another place, and Kaliubon is no exception. This version is a great stir-fry style that coats the noodles in a thick, rick sauce and topped with great textures from the egg, cucumbers, and ground pork. This is my go-to option when I don't feel super hungry and plan to take leftovers home since there is no broth to ruin the noodles. -Curry Ramen: The curry ramen is the perfect representation of Japanese ramen. Don't go in expecting Thai or Indian flavors. Kaliubon got those Japanese ramen flavors DOWN. A thick but soupy bowl, the soup is able to coat your noodles as you slurp them down giving the big curry flavor in each bite. Grab a side of rice! As you finish the noodles and have leftover soup, rice will give you the perfect portion to finish off the soup and does great at absorbing the flavors! -Beef Ramen: If you've ever had a bowl of traditional Chinese/Taiwanese beef noodle soup, then you're in for a treat here. Similar in flavor and texture, this beef ramen gives you all of those comfort food flavors with ramen noodles. Definitely a can't miss! Honorable mentions: Wonton Ramen and Truffle Shoyu Ramen. They also have great specials on certain weekends. In the summer, they had a lobster ramen that tasted like you drank the lobster juices as a soup! Incredibly flavorful and if it's ever on the menu again, you can bet I'll be ordering it! I've had their baos and dumplings as well. Both good but the ramen will fill you up. It's hard to say no to those bao though - especially that lamb one. Drooling already... read more

Delicious place. I had the pork bao, tuna poke bowl and the brussels sprout salad. All were fantastic. Staff was friendly and both courteous and knowledgeable about my dairy/egg intolerance.

On a chilly afternoon I was seeking something warm. I decided to try this place and was far from disappointed! Staff greeted me immediately even during lunch hours. I got the beef ramen. It has a little kick to it but it was just enough to warm me without being annoying. My ramen was a special that came with an appetizer for around $20. there were a few to choose from but I got the cucumber salad. It was pretty good. But the ramen was very good. I did have them remove the egg and next time I may also remove the cilantro but I plan to come back to try more very soon. read more

I'm a fan. Kaliubon Ramen offers some great food in a nice clean modern atmosphere. I enjoyed the Tokyo Chicken Ramen tonight, to which I added the wontons....good choice! Great lightly fried chicken added a nice zing to the dish. On a cold wintery night, there's nothing like a hot bowl of flavorful ramen. I wasn't a huge fan of the type of noodle they use, in comparison to some other local ramen establishments, but it wasn't terrible--just a preference I guess. Friendly service was a little slow tonight, however, the waitress was training another. read more

So on any day I can have some good Ramen but on a cold day hitting the depth of your stomach. Oh the joy and so great to have along with a bubble tea. You can fill it up with some fresh seafood and meats and veggies to fulfill your appetite. Even if you may not want the noodles you can have all veggies and it still fills you up along with the tasty broth that will warm your heart. read more

Mmmmmm I LOVE Kaliubon Ramen. I especially love their lunch specials, so awesome! I'd highly reccomend (whether it's lunch time or not) the Scottish salmon poke bowl. I've gotten it 3 times now and just can't stop coming back for more. Their brussels sprouts are soooooooo delicious as well, I'd stop by for these every day, but I'd go broke. At some point this winter I aim to stop in so that I can actually try the ramen itself, as I've always just gotten the poke bowls and some sides. The staff are always very friendly, nice, and helpful. I thoroughly enjoy stopping by whenever I do. read more

Kaliubon - Beef ramen - Ramen Near Me - Wethersfield, Connecticut

You know it's a good meal when you and your partner can't pick a favorite dish because they were all good. I had envisioned one day eating at Kaliubon, but on this given Sunday, I only had time to drive by and get takeout. And it was still good! (Takeout includes some handy reheating tips, which I heeded.) The lamb bao had a nice flavor and was a unique type of bao. Each bite was satisfying, and I don't see many lamb baos on other menus. Both ramen I got were very good. Their signature ramen with the ground pork and spicy mala paste made for a great taste and texture with each slurp. For the second ramen, I got a classic Tonkatsu, and I'd say theirs was one of the best I've had in the state with a nice balance of flavors and milkiness. I appreciate that for both, they don't skimp on the standard toppings. Even when I came in to order, the waiters I interacted with were uplifting, quick, and ready to get me the best ramen they could. I only wish I was still in the area more regularly to come by and get more tasty ramen. I'd definitely say this is some of the best in the state. read more

So many different choices of ramen! I got the truffle shoyu ramen, which was really good and my friend is a vegetarian, she said it is one of the few places that has a really good vegetarian broth ramen. Staff was very friendly. We had a coupon for a free bubble tea or dessert. Chose the bubble tea, the mango was delicious! read more

Some of the best ramen I've had! Staff is always great and the food is always served in a timely manner.

Was running a few errands in west Hartford and decided to stop here for ramen. There was a wide variety of options & they all seemed delicious. I went with the Curry Ramen and do not regret it. It has a very slight slight kick to it, but very tasty. If I lived closer to West Hartford I would definitely go here more frequently. The only downside is that there is not much parking & if you're unfamiliar with the area it can be a little confusing. read more

This place is the best! Ramen is so delicious and comes out hot so you know it's a fresh bowl. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu which is helpful if you want to try new things.

Kaliubon - Chicken Curry Ramen! And a side of boba tea! - Ramen Near Me - Wethersfield, Connecticut

I stopped by here a couple of Thursday's ago by myself for dinner. Kaliubon Ramen is located in a strip mall in Wethersfield and was easy to find. Upon entering the restaurant I was greeted by the host and after telling her that I was alone, asked whether I would like a table or a bar. Since seating inside the restaurant was rather limited and the place was mostly filled up, so I chose the bar. The inside of this place is nicely decorated with tile floors and wood (with nice grains) walls. On the day that I was there I believe that a new bartender was training as there were two people behind a bar that could seat 8 and the gentleman was helping the lady prepare some boba drinks. Even though I personally love boba drinks, I wanted to not fill up as much on this evening and so I didn't order some even though it looked good. For my dinner entree on this evening I went with the Kaliubon Ramen, extra spicy. I mean if the restaurant is named after it, it's got to be good, right? The menu describes it as creamy broth, ground pork, chashu, seasoned egg, scallions, onion, peanuts, sesame seeds and House spicy Malay paste. If you don't know what chashu is, it's stewed pork and the cut I got looked and tasted like a pork belly which I found to be fantastic. There were 2 slices of it and the fat worked really well with the creamy broth. Speaking of the broth it was very flavorful and since I had ordered it extra spicy, it had a nice kick to it. It complimented everything else that was in the Ramen and I couldn't get enough of it. Last but certainly not least were the noodles themselves. They were tasty and had a good texture to them. However I quickly finished them and if I could change one thing about this dish it would be to have some more noodles. Otherwise I loved every bite of it and worked hard to get every last drop of broth. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My Ramen was fantastic and I look forward to trying some of their other ramen dishes. read more

The food is good, but here is where it goes WRONG. We called to order food for pick up and after we placed the order, the person on the phone told us how much the order would be. I was shocked and said we ordered the same thing a few days before and the price was different. We were told that the price goes up after 5:00, but the portions are the same as the lunch portions when we ordered a few days prior. Why should we pay more after 5:00 if the portions are the same as the lunch portions? The amount went up almost $40.00 more after 5:00. For this reason we decided to cancel the order and will no longer eat there. Looks like they have it wrong. The lunch portions can be smaller, but if you are going to charge more after 5:00 the portions should be bigger. read more

In the mood for ramen, my friend and I came for lunch one Friday afternoon. It was easy to find with a huge parking lot with plenty of space. The restaurant itself had a very casual atmosphere. It was quite empty when we arrived, with only one other table seated. Even though it wasn't busy, it took a long time before the waitress came to take our order. She seemed distracted and we couldn't get her attention. She didn't come over to us until 20 minutes after we were seated. We both ended up going for the special of the day, Beef Brisket Ramen. I also ordered the Lychee Bubble Tea, since I'm a huge bubble tea fan. The price was $13-14 for a bowl of ramen. The drinks were a bit smaller than expected and served in Mason jars--$4.50 for a bubble tea. Overall the ramen was good. The Lychee tea tasted more like rose tea to me, but still really good. I would come back for ramen and hopefully have more attentive service while we're there for a better experience. read more

I came here with some coworkers for my first ever ramen experience. We were seated quickly and given menus to look over. All the ramen bowls actually sounded great and I couldn't decide what to try so I went with the namesake. My coworker first showed me how to properly eat ramen with the utensils which also was a new experience. The dish had a little bit of heat and a ton of flavor! I really enjoyed it up until I asked for a side of hot peppers to add to my dish which ended up being very painful to eat. Obviously my own fault, but I do like that the peppers you can get to add have a ton of heat! Overall this was a very good experience. Other than the waitress being a little slow everything was good. I will be back here to try more bowls! read more

As a vegetarian, it can be really hard to find good ramen! Kaliubon has a great selection of traditional ramens and unique items like a curry ramen. I got the regular vegetarian one and it was amazing. The broth was super flavorful, and it didn't taste like anything was missing flavor wise, which is great since ramen is normally so meat heavy. It was perfect with a tiny bit of chili paste. I wasn't a huge fan of the flavor of the tofu, but it did have a traditional taste, so no stars off for that. Staff was very nice and my food came very quickly read more

Kaliubon - Vegetarian Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Wethersfield, Connecticut

I have been going to Kaliubon Ramen a lot lately, after trying them for the first time only a few weeks ago. They have Poke Bowls, Ramen & Bubble Tea. Picture attached is my Salmon Poke with Avocado ($2 extra). The serving is huge and very filling! It comes with 2 kinds of seaweed, pickled ginger, edamame, sesame seeds and a ginger shoyu sauce. It comes with A LOT of rice, but I ordered today and asked for half rice, half greens and still had a lot of rice, but it was fine. My daughter loves the bubble tea and has ordered the chicken poke (which keeps well if you have leftovers - it can be reheated to make the rice more edible from the fridge). I also ordered the Pork Bao which came as 2 large pieces, bbq pork belly with pickled veggies in a soft open bun. Everything is so good but addictive! My only complaint is the price (salmon poke bowl was $15), but it is a lot of food. Since it is fish, it pretty much has to be eaten on the same day, so make sure you are hungry or able to share with someone. If you go to the website, you can order online and my food is usually ready in 10-15 minutes even though the website says 25 minutes. The entire process is contactless and they place your food on a table just inside the entry. Super easy! They even send you a text when your food is ready. This is a definite regular on my take-out rotation! read more

Kaliubon - Salmon Poke Bowl with Avocado ($2 extra) - Ramen Near Me - Wethersfield, Connecticut

Kaliubon is truly a raving place to try the flavorful ramen. A Sunday lunch wait was almost 30 minutes for a table of two adults! This place has booths and open tables, can accommodate group dinning also. I tried the chicken ramen and also mango bubble tea. The ramen portion is great! The broth to noodles wasn't of my kind of ratio, had too much of noodles. The taste of the broth was phenomenal had the right hint of flavors and seasoning. Loved the grilled chicken in the middle. The mango bubble tea was brilliant just right on the sweetness and was delicious with the boba! Glad I Found an awesome ramen place! read more

First off, I want to give a huge shoutout to our cute waiter whose name I didn't catch. He was super attentive and made sure we were satisfied with everything that came out of the kitchen. I also really appreciated his willingness to be honest with us as he recommended that I go with the squid ink noodles (a new offering!) and the Thai Milk Tea (brewed from real tea leaves!!). Because of this most recent visit, I have decided to up my rating for Kaliubon. For starters, we tried their limited edition A5 Wagyu Carpaccio. The wagyu was extremely tender and slightly warmed. The marbling in each razor thin slice was phenomenal. More astounding, to me, however, were the toppings and the plating. I loved the addition of crispy garlic, sauteed enoki and edible flowers. It made for such an intriguing visual experience with all the bright sunflower yellow and deep violet colors. The contrast in textures and taste between the fried garlic, the enoki, the flowers and wagyu was delightful as well! We were so thrilled to have been able to try this app as it happened to be the last weekend they were serving it! The Hot and Sour ramen I had was very sparsely topped. There was hardly any ground pork in it. It was mostly just noodles, broth, cilantro and peanuts. The broth was also way more spicy than sour and I was unable to finish the bowl because my mouth was burning so much. Still, Kaliubon is no stranger to flavor. Every sip was jam-packed with umami. I was a little disappointed that they were no longer offering the clear sweet potato noodles. That was THE reason I stopped in. However, I was recommended to try the squid ink noodles and OMG, the texture of these ebony strands was sublime. Kaliubon nailed it. Never have I had a more perfect noodle. It was perfectly al dente and perfectly seasoned. I had to stop myself from consuming all the noodles sans broth! The shoyu ramen was fairly simple. I did appreciate the addition of truffle oil. The ratio of flavors in your bowl of ramen is just as important as the variety and Kaliubon adds just enough so that you taste the truffle without having it overpower everything. Without it, the shoyu broth would have been too one-dimensional. The chashu is still not my favorite. Tonight, it was definitely much more reminiscent of sliced pork belly instead of the usual rolled version. For dessert, we split an Iced Thai Milk Tea with Boba. The tea was on the sweeter side, as most Thai teas go. However, it was uber creamy and the fragrance of the tea shone through. We knew we were getting real tea because we found tea leaves in our drink! The boba was perfectly chewy as well. They also soak their boba in honey--the only way to do it, if you ask me! Overall, while my first experience was lackluster, subsequent visits have proved time and time again that Kaliubon cares about the satisfaction of its patrons. I love that they are always experimenting with new dishes and looking for ways to improve. I look forward to keeping up with their Instagram feed to be the first to hear about their latest concoction. I can't wait! read more

Service: 5 stars! We were seated promptly and our server was friendly and offered recommendations as to what was good. Tonkotsu Mayu Ramen (avg spicy): Flavorful creamy broth with a smoky garlicky taste bc of the black garlic oil (mayu). Great flavor! The pork was tender and yummy. The soft boiled egg was not as flavorful as we would have liked. Overall 4 stars. Vegetarian Ramen (avg spicy) Much more flavorful than the usual vegetarian broth. A little bit saltier than I would have liked. And wished it came with a soft boiled egg but they said the eggs were boiled in pork oil. Avg spicy added just a hint of heat could have gone w spicy actually. Overall 4 stars. Great date spot on a Sunday night! read more

Lunch time on a Saturday and we were in the mood for something different and Ramen fit the bill. I've had Ramen at a handful of locations in CT and this one of my favorites. Started with pork bao, the pork was delicious and the pickled veggies really made it great. I got the Kaliubon and my wife got the miso ramen. We always order extra egg with our soups and the eggs are on point. Perfectly soft and creamy in the middle and I believe they are soy marinated. Both broths were amazing mine was nice and creamy with great flavor. They have a great chili oil I like to add to spice it up, be careful though it's hot!

We have been excited to visit Kaliubon after first trying them at Taste of Wethersfield and finally had a chance! I have only had fancy ramen twice before but this was definitely a clear favorite. I opted for a classic Kaliubon Ramen and Pork Belly Bao to start. This was my first time having Lamb Bao and it was DELICIOUS. I want more immediately and nearly slapped Mike's hand away from that second sandwich. My ramen was also quite delicious, though I did need to add a bit more spicy to mine (I like it hot). This place will definitely be one of our regular visits in the colder months. read more

OMG..I LOVE RAMEN!!! and I never use the term "OMG." I would describe Kaliubon as a modern and clean ramen shop that serves one of the best ramen in Connecticut. In addition to serving some of the best ramen (in the opinion of the author), they have a friendly and attentive wait staff that come by when needed, so they are not overbearing and let you eat in peace. I love their Kaliubon Dumplings! The appetizer comes with five dumplings and is garnished with slices of cherry tomatoes and parley as it is soaked in their special house spicy sauce. The dumplings were perfectly stuffed and their sauce made everything better! I would drink the sauce after eating my dumplings, but it seems frowned upon in public so I didn't. Their Kaliubon Ramen is absolutely AMAZING! It was slightly spicy and creamy and it was so delicious that I had to finish every last drop in my bowl. The Chashu was perfectly cooked and the amount in the bowl was perfect. The seasoned egg was slightly salty, but worked well with the overall dish. Just writing about my experience with them, makes me want to go right back to them! They did not have a large selection of poké bowl, just two on their current menu, but I am hopeful that they would expand the poké menu in the future. Until that happens, enjoy their delicious ramen!!! read more

My son and I stopped here on our way back from skiing in Vermont. I am a huge ramen fan, so I love trying new ramen places. We were ecstatic. The food was top-notch, service was AMAZING, and they have Sapporo on tap! Need I say more? Our food came out in mere minutes. I had the Kaliubon ramen dish. The broth was complex and flavorful, with a rich undertone of umami. My son ordered the brisket ramen. He is a very picky eater and normally prefers Pho, but he was easily won over! Their dumplings were some of the best I have ever had in a light spicy sauce. I normally compare ramen joints with Mecha Noodle in New Haven, as I believe they set the bar in CT for Ramen. I am happy to say that this place totally stands in its own and is as good. I also had their Goma Q dish as a starter, which is a Japanese-inspired cucumber salad. The smoky flavor of the dressing and crunch of the toppings was mind-blowingly good. (Again, the Sapporo on top realllly hit the spot and complemented the dishes very well.) I noticed on a sign that the noodles were made in-house and confirmed with server that this was the case. Just simply outstanding. I don't know when we will be in Wethersfield again, but this establishment is worth the trip. read more

The shop was easy to find. Small place but they make it work and it seems spacious and very clean and modern. We were immediately sat down when we went on Sunday afternoon and the waiter we had was very kind and polite. Always checking up on us to make sure we were doing ok. He also explained the menu to us, seeing that we were first timers there. One of us ordered their house ramen, the Kaliubon Ramen, and that was DELICIOUS. Jam packed with flavor and already came spicy. I would recommend this one. You can get any of the other ramens that are not spicy, spicy but they only add that Japanese red pepper flakes on it. Nothing extra was done to make it "spicy" which was a shame. I got the Tonkatsu Ramen spicy. The broth was good but the flavor wasn't as deep at the Kaliubon Ramen for $1 more. Extra noodles was only $2, so if you're hungry after the first bowl, just save the broth and some meat and spring for those extra noodles! You won't be disappointed. Next time I'm coming back to try their Poke Bowls!!. read more
