We did take out from Tooou and the food was incredible so we decided to go in person. The restaurant is very clean and very modern. The atmosphere very inviting. For appetizers we had the Katsu (fried pork), and the fried tofu. Both were excellent. I got the Lobster roll because they use soy paper and I hate seaweed. There were 8 pieces and they were delicious. My son got the Spider Roll and he loved it. He opted for the Thai Tea but I got a diet coke. A lot of patrons were having the ramen so that is next in the list. read more

The food wasn't good, especially for the price. I got the vegan miso soup with an egg, but they forgot the egg. The broth is just tangy with no other umami or good flavor. There were only three tiny pieces of tofu, which is not enough for a $17 dollar dish. The service was odd as well. I arrived an hour before close and there were only two other parties in the store. I was told they were closing early but I could eat if I move fast. The dish was brought out without utensils and I couldn't flag down the waitress for any spicy sauce to make the dish have flavor. It was too expensive for this kind of experience. read more

Ordered takeout today. I was surprised how thin the sushi rice was put on the maki. Hope that it will improve in the next order. read more

Toppu - Ramen Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

Toppu is an underrated hidden gem in Quincy! Recently opened and located in South Quincy, Toppu serves Japanese cuisine, ranging from ramen to sushi to omurice. First, we got the vegetable tempura to share. It was light and crispy, pairing well with the sauce they provided. My personal favorite was the sweet potato tempura! They also offer a terrific sushi combo special; 2 rolls for $15 or 3 rolls for $19.45. We got two 3-roll sushi combos and I personally opted for the Spicy Salmon, Spicy Scallop, and Shrimp Tempura rolls. My favorite roll was the Spicy Scallop roll, but all the rolls were amazing! The Spicy Scallop Roll is a MUST TRY here. The fish is so fresh and they give a lot of fish (perfect fish-to-rice ratio!). I love how the tempura was crispy in the sushi rolls as well. Overall, the quality of the food is solid too, and it's a great place to get some tasty sushi. There are probably about 8 tables max at Toppu, so it's a great spot to grab some takeout. They have their own parking lot and there's tons of street parking right in front of the restaurant. However, I definitely recommend dining in though! The restaurant is clean and cute. I love how they have Toppu dishes and glasses. The staff is also very friendly. One thing to note though (which is the only reason I'm giving Toppu 4 stars instead of 5) is that the service can be a bit slow when they're busy. It took some time to get our food and the bill. There was only one waiter working as well. I'm sure once they've been open for a while they'll figure it out! I recommend giving Toppu a try! I'll be back soon to try their ramen and omurice. read more

I'm going to be honest with you all: I love ramen! After a disappointing experience at another place, I was worried. I was worried that I had fallen out of love with it, and/or that my palate changed for the worse. Still, me being me, when I discovered Toppu was open, I made it a point to stop in and give it a try. This time I was not afraid of the heat, and ordered the spicy "Volcano" Ramen. I've had my tail absolutely handed to me a handful of times, but I decided to trust the server that it wasn't crazy hot. Well, I am glad to report this was the best bowl of ramen I have had in a long time. It was so good, even though it has been less than 24 hours, I am tempted to go back and order the same thing again. This is one of those rare cases when I cannot think of anything negative to say. Yes, this means I have experienced perfection! I have to start with the broth: the broth had the perfect amount of salt, was very savory, and had a hint of extremely pleasant sweetness. True to the server's word, the heat level was on point. It was spicy enough to be noticeable, but not at all overpowering or overwhelming. The definition of pleasant heat. The Chashu was also great! It was grilled/roasted instead of being boiled, and it had a good balance of fatty and meaty. It had absorbed a little bit of sweetness from the broth which worked wonders with the protein. For the noodles, these were cooked to perfection with just a teeny tiniest amount of firmness for texture. The egg was also cooked perfectly. For the veggies: I love the use of bean sprouts and bamboo shoots for added freshness and crunch. The use of Nori (which I think also counts as a veggie?) was also excellent and added a new dimension to the bowl. Finally, for the service, other than me wishing that an empty water glass was noticed a bit faster, no complaints here. The service was kind, polite, and speedy. When it comes to the location, it is clean and bright! They did a truly lovely job renovating in rehabbing the Dunkin' Donuts that used to be here. With this, I am absolutely a fan of Toppu, and I'm going to make a point to stop in at least one more time before I leave the state for good! read more

Toppu - Volcano Tonkutsu (Spicy) - Ramen Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

Another new ramen shop was added to the Quincy Center location. The place is small, with around 6 to 8 tables. We got here before 6 p.m., so it wasn't busy. More people came as we were about to finish our meal. The waitress was friendly, but she made an error on our order, and the kitchen might forget the order as well when it's too busy. Affordable price, don't expect high quality. It is a place for quick meals, but they serve slowly once it gets too busy. We order the following: Classic Japanese Omurice with Katsu Deep Fried Pork served with Miso Soup--they forgot about the katsu and served the rice first. It does take a little longer to make the tornado eggs. Also, they forgot about the miso soup after they served the katsu, and we nearly finished the meal. Adding $3 for the katsu, it worth it (Did not take picture of the katsu and miso soup since they served separately) Toppu Tonkutsu - chewy ramen, but the chashu was too thick and soft. Even the meat and fat were balanced. The soup base was thick and too salty. Volcano Tonkutsu is spicy, chewy ramen. I wish the chashu were thinly cut, and the soup base was too thicker than the nonspicy version. My favorite was the egg. Too much msg, I drank whole cup of water. Volcano roll - not too much rice and huge shrimp tempura, too much tempera flake and little cooked scallop and crabstick. They added bonito which ruined the taste. Spider roll - nothing really special Eel avocado roll--but they gave us eel cucumber. We did not bother changing it since the chef took too long to make it. The sushi was served after nearly finishing the rice and the ramen. read more

New sushi restaurant in Quincy that just opened. The place is modern and clean. The restaurant is small, there are about 5-8 tables. Food breakdown: Volcano Tonkutsu (Spicy): It had a slight kick of spice. The ramen was surprisingly pretty good as I usually dislike ramen cause it is overly salty or the broth is way too thick. I would honestly order this again. Spider Roll: Crispy soft shelled crabs. Flavor was decent. Alaskan Roll: Rice was a bit cold (this was for all the maki rolls ordered). Sushi rice should be room temperature or slightly warm. They used the perfect amount of rice. The fish was so little, I was honestly just tasting the avocado and cucumber. Eel avocado: Again very little fish. Roll was mid. Takoyaki: Over cooked, takoyaki was very dark in color. There is a small piece of octopus. Missing scallions and ginger. Also takoyaki needs more sauce. Overview--I would stick with the ramen and maybe just get a roll if you are craving for sushi as well. The maki rolls are pretty average. Staffs were friendly and place was super clean though. Would come back for ramen only. read more

Toppu - D3. Curry Karaage Fried Chicken Don - Ramen Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

I ordered fried rice and noodles. They were very greasy; it felt like I was eating pure oil.

My partner and I ordered a classic Japanese omurice combo w miso soup (plus katsu pork and curry sauce), takoyaki, karaage don (plus black pepper sauce), and any 3 rolls (spicy tuna, spicy salmon, eel avocado) - TASTE: 4/5 - twas better than anticipated! Both sauces, the curry sauce for the omurice and the black pepper sauce for the karaage, were super tasty. The spicy tuna and spicy salmon were actually seasoned and spicy, unlike other places TEXTURE: 5/5 - the omurice was more of a flat tornado-style egg vs. rice wrapped in egg or a fluffy egg cut open to reveal its runny center. Still enjoyed it though, plus the crunchy katsu pork and breaded takoyaki PRICE: 4/5 - total came to $76, more than I expected SERVING SIZE: 4/5 - satisfied us for dinner and still had leftovers SERVICE: 3/5 - ordered online via Chowbus and our food was ready/on time when we arrived 20min later. The space was empty at ~5pm on a Saturday. Unfortunately realized we were given a chicken teriyaki dish, instead of our karaage don, when we got home ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - was only inside briefly for pickup, but Toppu is bright and cozy w Japanese decor. Definitely a departure from the former Dunkin Donuts space lol PARKING: 5/5 - ample parking in their dedicated lot read more

Inside was cute, decorative and has the feel of street vendor. Pricing is comparable to other venues. Sashimi and sushi: tasted fresh but wasn't anything unique to write about. For the Chefs Sashimi platter it came with a tuna roll, we requested it to be spicy tuna and they had to up-charge $1 for that. Usually other venues would just count it as an easy switch, not sure why they up-charge. The nigiri was also odd, they use the mayo as the paste to glue the fish to the rice, I'm used to wasabi being used. I don't like the mayo as glue. Ramen: passable, I didn't try it but the kids liked it. The soup looked creamy and the noodles looked on point. The charsui was tender and juicy. Mochi ice cream: 1 order comes with 2. Save your money and go to Hmart down the street, that's most likely where it came from. Service: was fine, but the waitress didn't look happy to be there. Overall, the quality and price doesn't beat the competitions down the street. Tip, the location of the restaurant is confusing. If you see that big Dunkin' Donuts sign, it is there! Just find parking on the street. read more

I'm glad I decided last minute to come try toppu after driving by 4x a week. When we walked in it was nice and bright and clean, the decor was refreshing. The staff is welcoming and attentive. The menu was easy to read. My niece picked a Katsu ramen, the deep fried pork was huge, crispy and thick. My husband got the roasted duck ramen and added chasu. I ordered the twice fried ribs, it was crispy from the 2nd batter coating. I wished it had more of the sticky brown sauce. I loved the fall of the bone meat. For sushi I got the red dragon roll, it was very filling, but lacked something. For me the portions were pretty big, I was able to share and taste their ramen. We were able to pack up some items to bring home. I can't wait to come back and try the duck tacos and the omurice! read more

Modern Japanese restaurant located in Quincy serving some of the best spicy ramen and fresh sushi. Affordable prices and generous portions. Sushi to rice ratio is absolute perfection with thick cut slices of fish over just the right amount of rice. You will definitely not leave hungry. Friendly and knowledgeable staff who are quick with suggestions and explanations to the entire menu. This is one hidden gem that is not to be missed. read more

This was the first time I heard of omurice and it was labeled as a signature item. I didn't realize it was nothing more than just rice with omelette on top. I got it with the curry sauce and pork katsu. Overall it was good and not bad for $20, but I wish the portion sizes would be a little bigger. read more

Service was good, but food took a while and sushi was more like a chain. It had the feeling and taste of fast food. I was happy to give it a whirl, but we won't be back since we are not local to this location and it isn't worth the drive when closer places are much better. One and Done read more

Ordered on Doordash because the food and reviews looked good, but personally I didn't like anything that I ordered. I got the Takoyaki, Fried Dumplings, and Beef Udon. It was all mediocre at best so I am utterly disappointed. Now I am down $40 and sad read more

Really unprofessional. I came in and ordered Ramen and sat down to eat. Paid at the countered with my card and didnt get an option to tip. I sat down waiting and they gave me a to go box. I asked if I can eat and they said I had to tip to eat. First they miss asking if I want to dine in or want to go, and if they made the mistake, they want you to pay you more. Sad scene. Stay away read more

Really good food, nice people. Soup buns were delish, as was the beef kushiyaki! Portions were big. Will be back.

Food was very reasonably priced and it was very filling. Would definitely recommend their ramen

Pretty good ramen, spicy is really spicy. The chashu pork was really delicious and a little crispy. A little slow but we came right after they opened so to be expected as things settle down. Ambiance is fine. read more

Food and service is good. Love the ramen and teriyaki dishes. Cool ambience in a quiet side of Quincy.

Excellent meal, ramen and a spicy ramen, both great. Good local location with nice natural light. Friendly staff.

I did not like the Katsu Ramen. There was not enough broth when my bowl of ramen arrived. Looked like a sad bowl of ramen. The bamboo shoot did not taste like regular bamboo shoots. It tasted very funky. Had to spit it out. The fish cake doesn't look like regular fish cake. The pink dye coloring was very off so I did not try that. My friend ordered Classic Japanese Omurice and she did not make a dent on her plate LOL she said the egg was over cooked. We also tried takoyaki and it was alright. The takoyaki was smaller than other restaurants for sure LOL like egg puff size. Service was great. The waitress refilled our water couple times. Wouldn't be returning though. read more

Just ordered here for the first time and it was SO good. Best tasting spicy tuna roll I've had in years -- just super fresh and full of flavor. Teriyaki and miso soup also were very good. One suggestion I have for the chef is to add more specialty rolls that don't have tempura. (I'm not supposed to eat wheat and can't order those -- I assume others might be the same.) overall, I would definitely order again. read more
