Per my previous review - I am a big Yume fan. So happy to hear about all their success. Selfishly, I live in Cambridge, so having two locations spreads the crowds out, which makes the line shorter for me at the Porter Square location! I've noticed that this location has thicker udon than the original. I personally did not mind this nor did it take away from the amazing flavor of the spicy cold niku udon, which tastes just as good as the original location.
Some places you revisit out of habit. Yume Ga Arakura you revisit out of loyalty and the yearning for that particular flavor. That distinction matters if I do say so myself. This is a 12 out of 10, and I don't just hand those ranking out willy-nilly. I came here through winters first, which is honestly the ideal origin story. The Spicy Hot Udon in Boston winter is the equivalent of someone putting a blanket on your shoulders without being asked. The broth hits deep, the udon has that perfect chew that tells you someone back there actually cares and respect their noodles, and you leave feeling genuinely restored rather than just full. Then summer came and I almost made the mistake of skipping it entirely--because soup in summer? I mean c'mon. But silly me, I should've tried the Spicy Cold Udon sooner than later. Same exceptional broth. Same gorgeous chewy noodles. But served cold in an absolutely refreshing way. I mourned all the summers I could have been eating this. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and the service moves at a pace that impresses you without making you feel like you're being processed; the atmosphere is nice and simple too. Anyway: hot or cold, winter or summer, just go, get some, sip some amazing broth, bask in all of it!
Such a happy discovery for our group on our recent trip to Boston! We took the subway into the city and walked over here to find the restaurant tucked away in this plaza. You start by getting in line and the servers will ask you how many people are in your party and give you a menu to start deciding on what to order. I highly recommend the spicy cold noodles - they were the best thing there! I got the regular hot udon soup with an egg and thought it didn't hit the spot like I hoped it would in terms of flavor. The noodles are amazing and it seems like the only place like it in the area! Theres also a fun little speakeasy to find next door after you're done eating here.
As an Asian diner, I'm pretty picky when it comes to Asian restaurants. I always worry that traditional flavors will be toned down to appeal to a broader audience, so I walked into Yume Ga Arukara with a little hesitation. Those concerns disappeared almost immediately. Looking around the dining room, I noticed many of the customers were of Asian descent, which gave me confidence that I was in the right place. I grabbed a seat at the counter, and it ended up being the best seat in the house. Watching the cooks prepare each bowl from scratch was fascinating. They hand-cut the udon noodles, cooked every component to order, and assembled each bowl with incredible care. It felt like dinner and a show all in one. On a rainy Boston afternoon, the Spicy Hot Niku Udon with an onsen egg was exactly what I needed. The broth was deeply flavorful, with rich dried fish and beef notes that tasted comforting without being overwhelming. The thinly sliced beef was tender and perfectly cooked, while the freshly made udon noodles were the star of the bowl. They were silky, smooth, and wonderfully chewy. The tempura flakes added a satisfying salty crunch that contrasted nicely with the soft noodles. The star of the dish, onsen egg, stole the show. The white part had an almost custard-like texture and the yolk was rich and creamy, blending effortlessly into the broth to make every bite even more luxurious. My only suggestion would be to offer sliced jalapeños as an optional side garnish. As a Korean who grew up enjoying spicy foods, I found myself wanting just a little more heat. I understand that Japanese cuisine typically isn't as fiery, but having the option to add fresh jalapeños would have taken an already excellent bowl to the next level for my personal taste.
Delicious flavor, restorative to energy levels! Fast and efficient. Dont be scared by the line, bc it moves fast (maybe 15-20min wait). The flavor was so amazing and umami for the broth. Definitely get the non spicy hot niku udon so that you can get the full flavor. For cold, the spicy is good bc it provides a nice flavor. Very clean and good service.
yume ga arukara was recommended by a friend while we were in seaport. while i wasn't excited to wait in a line, the staff tries their best to satisfy the line with giving menus so you are able to peruse and figure out what you want. when you're actually in the restaurant you don't feel rushed by the staff but more by the watchful eyes of other hungry customers! the ramen was really yummy and they honored my request of extra crunchies on the side. it's a small space but they decorated it nicely. i would come back here for lunch during the week, not on a weekend. i'd be excited to try their original spot in cambridge!
Came to Seaport District of Boston for a conference and found this gem of a restaurant tucked in the center of an upscale plaza, as I was craving some hot soup to stave off the cold misty weather of Boston. Upon arriving, I waited outside for about thirty or so minutes, as the restaurant only holds maybe 10-15 people at a time due to their limited tables and bar. You get to look at the menu while you are in line, and order once you get to the front of the line so that when you are seated your food is soon to come. I got the hot spicy nikutama udon, and I thought that it was great! Noodles had good chew and the meat was delicious. As I was a single diner, I was seated at the bar and got to get a front row view of the kitchen making the food.
I felt like Yume Ga Arukara didn't stand out to me. Not sure if I just ordered the wrong item? I got the hot spicy nikutama udon soup. Nikutama just basically comes with meat. I also added the onsen egg. My first initial thought: it's warm, soothing and heartwarming. But the more I ate it, it didn't really have much flavor and I don't know if it's because it's chicken based broth. The spiciness also didn't really have much of a kick. And in some bites, I bit into a Szechuan pepper. Not sure what kind of theme they're going for but definitely didn't expect it to have a Szechuan twist. I will say, I very much liked their udon noodles! It was really chewy and soft. I also felt that the onsen egg was slightly too undercooked. I love eggs and I can eat them cooked, runny, etc. but felt like the yolk was so runny it mixed into the soup and didn't really resurface after that. It's a really small shop with bar seating and a few small tables. Expect a wait if you're a big party or quite possibly coming around rush hour. Despite my review, it seems very popular. Service was quick and fast!
Yume Ga Arukara is great!! It's a relatively small restaurant tucked into Seaport with limited seating (minimum 1 bowl per customer). Their menu options include a total of 8 udon dishes -- divided into hot and cold udon with spicy or regular broth. I got the hot udon, which was the traditional niku (beef). It was both slightly sweet and savory with a delicious broth and crispy tempura bits. You can see them slice up their homemade noodles in front of you which is super cool! My hubby meanwhile got the signature cold udon--I didn't anticipate the cold udon dish to be this good but it was (unfortunately ate it before I could take a photo). It had even crispier bits since it was broth-less, and had a nice lemony refreshing taste. Both were flavorful!! I think the signature cold udon was even slightly better which I was very surprised by (usually not a fan of cold noodle dishes!)
First things first - DELICIOUS. My first sip of it and my jaw-dropped. The umami is so intense and literally bursting with flavor. It was a really cold day and this udon really hit the spot. Service was fast and our server was great! I loved the decor, The place probably seats about 10-15 people, just an FYI. My first day touring Boston was met with a few disappointments with the food, but we ended off our day with this udon and it made up for the whole day XD Highlyyy recommend!!!
My friend and I came by on a Friday night around 6 or 7 PM and we probably waited around 20 minutes to get seated. They took our order as we waited in line so it was super quick to get our food ones we were in. We both ordered this cold Niku udon and it was super yummy. It was a generous portion. The beef was well flavored and the crispies were a delight when mixed with the broth. Overall, I think this was worth the hype!
A classic comfort pick for any Bostonian, Yume has consistently been ranked among the best Udon spots in the country. After the change in management however, I think the quality has dropped a slight bit. It's still a good spot I come back to time and time again.
When we walked out of Todd Snyder and didn't see a line at Yume, we honestly thought it might be closed. Usually, there's a line, but we lucked out and walked straight in. The space is tight, only four two-seat tables and a handful of counter seats. The kitchen is open which is nice to see them making the noodles by hand. The server was fast, efficient, and friendly. * Hot Niku Udon (10/10): This had a delicious chicken broth with a distinct shrimp flavor thatbut not overwhelming. * Spicy Cold Niku Udon (9/10): The beef was mouth watering. It was a very good bowl of udon, though it could have used more spice since it's ... called spicy. Bathroom review: There is a single unisex bathroom. I appreciate that the door has a clear vacant or occupied sign that changes when you lock it. It was clean enough for such a busy restaurant, and they provide paper hand towels in addition to an air dryer. Also a baby changing station.

Tl;dr Excellent, chewy udon and fantastic flavors, but service staff needs some better training. We came on a Wednesday night for two and had no wait, which was a great start. Having been here twice now, getting the spicy cold beef udon and their special tantan udon is definitely the way to go (made the mistake of getting the soup udon the first time). The udon itself goes without saying. It is thick, super chewy, and cooked just to the right softness. The cold beef udon was perfect--the sauce has a great blend of flavors and is portioned correctly. The tantan was an interesting take that is different from typical Chinese tantan flavors, making it unique to their style. The main issue was the service flexibility. I asked for no cilantro on the tantan, and the server said they couldn't accommodate that request because they wanted to serve it the way the chef intended. This was ridiculous considering the cilantro was simply piled right on top rather than blended into a sauce or salsa. In the end, it was just a waste of time having to pick it all out myself. The best part was the table next to us were able to customize their bowl. The noodles and cold beef udon are outstanding, but untrained staff really changed the mood of the night. read more
This was my second visit to Yume Ga Arukara and it was actually one of the best meals I've had in my entire life. The broth is out-of-this-world delicious and the udon noodles are so deliciously chewy. I literally put my phone away to savor this amazing soup. The service was kind and efficient and I got seated right away with no wait to eat an early dinner at ~4pm on a Friday. Music from Harry Styles played in the restaurant, which I was vibing with. read more

This place single-handedly raised the ceiling for what udon could be for me. The udon is chewy and supple and the broth is flavorful yet still light. And the thin beef slices are truly a star of the show. Each slice is juicy and tender, packed with a slightly sweet flavor. Also, the staff handles the long line very well as we were able to get seated quickly yet did not feel rushed while we were eating. Highly recommend, it could be a life-changing experience!! read more
To say I was disappointed is an understatement. I've had the Cambridge location and this does not match it in any way. The host had a little attitude and didn't feel welcoming at all. She also added on to my order but it was too late. The food was also just not as good as the Cambridge location. I honestly couldn't finish it all, it was not satisfying. The cold noodles didn't have enough tempura and way too much ginger. The spicy hot noodles were fine, better than the cold noodles this time. But I just did not leave satisfied and did not have a good experience with this location. read more
Great location as it is only a 10 minute walk from the convention hall. Came here for lunch and for a party of 1, there was no wait when I came around noon on a Friday (there was a line when I left). Ordering was quick and easy, and food came out quickly. I gotthe Spicy Cold Niku Udon which hit the spot. The noodles were nice and chewy just the way I like them, and while not spicy enough for me it had a soooo much umami flavor. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area. read more

Authentic and unique, this restaurant specializes in udon noodles (both hot & cold). We tried the spicy & original cold udon. I thought the flavor was interesting, though not my favorite. Since we came in pretty late, we were able to get seated, but the restaurant gets pretty busy, so be prepared to wait. Loved the Japanese decorations and vibe as well. read more
Came on a Sunday around 1pm. We waited in line for about 15 minutes before getting seated. While waiting, they give you a menu and you can order so once you're seated the food is ready. Their menu is very small and straightforward. You have the option of getting the udon hot or cold. The portions are pretty large and will fill you up! We got the hot Niku ramen with an egg. The broth was very rich and full of flavor. I was surprised when I saw the krill shrimps in the broth, but I think they really helped to deepen the flavor and add saltiness. read more
Easily one of my favorite spots in Boston!!! And... the only place I eat cold noodles. Tucked in a corner in a large Seaport complex, this isn't the place for a 2-hour, intimate date, but it's hands down the most delicious spot for udon in Boston. Nuts/Bolts: Seaport parking can be a disaster, and there are just a few metered spots around the complex. No resy capacity, but the tables turnover quickly-- about every 45min. There will always be a line during peak hours, so bring a jacket to stand in the cold. Or, order takeout and enjoy at home! 2 seats/table, 16ish seats total. $14-18/order. The spicy option is rather mild, but watch out for splattering your white shirt if ordering this option Food: If you're indecisive like me, you're in luck; hot vs cold, spicy vs non spicy, meat vs no meat... those are your order options! They're all excellent options, and I dare you to try the cold udon, even on a chilly day. Hand-pulled noodles prepared before your eyes, an incredibly rich broth, everything prepared to order and still out within 5min of an order... Yume pours love into an age-old recipe. Bravo! read more
Best bowl of UDON I had in my life!!! We waited around 10 minutes for a seat and they took our order while we were waiting so the food was ready when we got seated. The broth was incredible and it came with crunchy toppings and the beef was so rich. The ambiance was casual and cozy. I can't believe it's my first time here! Will definitely be coming back again!! read more

This small udon place is so delicious! They do not take reservations and I will not say it is the place for bigger parties, but the udon is definitely one of the best I've tried. Because the restaurant is really small, sometimes there is a wait, but our party got lucky and was seated right away. There are not a ton of options on the menu, but everything looked very good. I got the hot Niku Udon and the service was excellent, with us getting our food within ten minutes. I would definitely recommend this udon restaurant! read more
Was craving some warm soup for the unbearable cold weather. Limited seating and prepare for the wait. Lined up for 40 minutes and the staff organized it so that they take your order ahead of time. Once you are seated, your food is served right away. Personally, I liked this experience it was quick and efficient. The udon was fresh and soup was spicy but not overwhelming spice. Beef was thinly sliced and tender. read more

This place is pretty well known for the udon, but definitely lives up to the hype. This location is tiny, and can only seat like 15 people, but they are very efficient. They take your order while you're in line so that when you sit down, the food arrives almost immediately. The worst part is probably having to wait outside in that wind tunnel. The hot udon has a really good broth, and a good amount of meat. The cold udon's noodles are a little more chewy but the broth is a little more salty. Either one is a good choice! If the weather is nicer outside, you can place an order for pick up and eat in the outdoor seating area right outside the restaurant. read more

I never had cold udon noodles before, and THIS WAS AMAZING! The noodles were bouncy and silky, the beef was cooked and seasoned beautifully, the fried tempura flakes gave the dish the perfect texture contrast with the rest of the dish, and the combination of all the toppings (i.e. lemon wedge, grated ginger, dried seaweed, scallions, daikon radish) balanced the overall flavors in the dish to perfection. Service was also very helpful - explaining each of their dishes to us - and our food came out pretty quickly. I heard there is ALWAYS a wait for this restaurant, but my friend and I went at 2pm on a Friday, and there was no wait time (so maybe that's the best time to go!). I will 100% be returning to Yume Ga Arukara when I visit Boston again! The area around Yume Ga Arukara was also so cute and was crowded with many clothings stores and dessert shops - perfect for a shopping spree after eating! read more
This is the new location in Seaport with more seating and space. Be prepared to wait on line but don't worry it moves fast - the hostess will come out and ask for your order, so as soon as you're seated, you will only need to wait a few minutes and will soon have your food ready to eat. Sadly, I think there have been some downgrades to help with service like having plastic, whimsy spoons. But taste and flavor are still the same! read more
I was recommended this spot by a friend - he didn't tell me that I'd have to wait outside in the cold for 30 minutes since this spot is so popular! The wait was 1000% worth it. The udon was absolutely magical- the best part was the broth. I don't know how they make their broth so flavorful. It's been a while since I've had food that's genuinely dumbfounded me but Yume did that. Definitely come, but be ready to wait! read more

My friends have already been here before so they were excited to take me. Given it is a busy spot, you certainly need to plan ahead especially as it is a live in person queue for a table. With that being said, their menu is very simple and straightforward to allow for more efficient service and turnover. We got their Spicy hot udon, cold udon, and hot udon. Having been able to try a bite of each of theirs, they're all more of less the same kind of dish. The cold is very refreshing and unique if you're not used to cold noodles. Overall, we had a pleasant and straightforward experience. Staff greet and say goodbye to everyone. Dishes are prepared quick and the serving size is a perfect amount for me. Would come again! read more
This cute stop serves up delicious hot and cold udon dishes. Tried the spicy cold and spicy hot- neither of which were very spicy so if you don't like spice don't be afraid! They come with plenty of meat and a good portion of the thickest chewiest noodles! There was a like when we got there but you order in like and then your food comes to you shortly after you sit down. Super friendly staff and definitely worth stopping by. read more

Came here on a rainy week day. They don't take reservations and it's first come first serve. You won't be seated until the whole party arrives and there's limited seating area, so be prepared to wait if you come at prime dinner time. We sat at the bar and was able to see them make fresh udon and prepare our dish. I ordered the hot niku udon (udon with thinly sliced beef) with their onsen egg (soft boiled/poached egg). The flavors of the udon soup was so good; the noodles are fresh, but I do wish it had a little more chew and qq for the udon (personal preference). Overall everything was so good and the service is fast. It was a satisfying udon dish to hit my cravings on the cold rainy day! read more
Love this place! Came here originally when this location first opened and thought it wasn't as good as its original location in Cambridge, but after visiting this location more, I think they've gotten the quality to be on par with the Cambridge location. The interior of this location is much nicer than the Cambridge site being that this one is in Seaport. Service is quick. once you get a seat you shouldn't have to wait more than a couple minutes if that for your food to arrive. The longest portion of the waiting is when you're in line waiting for a seat. I always go with some variation of the Cold Niku Udon. You can order add ons like an egg, extra beef and/or make it spicy. Definitely recommend for a casual quick place to eat! read more
This was my first meal after missing my bus in NYC, getting on the next one, getting carsick from the traffic, and waiting 15 min for a 10 min uber ride here, and it made my life so much better!!! The moment you enter there is cool air and a quietness, and arriving at 4PM on a Friday had no wait! We were seated immediately and I got to charge my laptop and phone, and the food recharged ME! The menu was very straight forward and I got the regular cold udon with beef for $15, and added an egg for $3. The noodles with the chilled sauce is so so so refreshing with just a hint of warmth from the beef. I enjoyed it so much because it was a hot day outside! I would definitely be back to try the hot noodles in the winter. The food came super fast and we ate fast too, it was such a great experience to be honest. read more
Still my favorite meal in all of Boston! Cold Niku Udon. The tip for this location is to get it to go and sit outside in the plaza if weather permits. Skips the line and you can preorder in advance. Will always be a stop whenever I come back to visit. read more
I love a good chewy udon, and this place really hit the spot, one with there being both hot and cold options and two with the chili flavors. I went when it opened and there were both table and counter sitting, and as I went solo, it was perfect to sit at the counter comfortably and eat without feeling pressured even though it was a pretty small shop. I got the spicy cold niku udon and loved it; portion size was good, udon was chewy, and flavors were on point. I'll definitely be back if I am back in Boston! read more
I've literally been dreaaaaming of Yume Ga Arukara since I first visited their original location last year. We were back in Boston again, and decided to stroll to their new location at Seaport! They're one of the top rated udon restaurants in the US on Beli so ofc we had to go back :) I ordered what I had the last time - the spicy cold udon! They make the udon fresh and it's been the perfect texture the last two times I visited. My fav part is the broth / sauce it comes with! I think this location isn't as homey as their original unfortunately, and it felt almost as though it lost it's charm... the service was just okay, but the food came out quickly at least. They're next to a bunch of shops, so perfect to shop around after a quick lunch! read more
