from Google"Small and intimate with beautiful food offerings with slightly smaller portions. Ramen, pho, and thai food standard fare .It can get a bit cold if you dine in during winter but they have curtains up to try to help mitigate the blustering wind when the door is opened ( perhaps an entrance way overhead heater installation will come in the future??)"
"This place is pretty nice, good flavor, great service and good prices for the location. We ordered four different kinds of ramen and the flavors are very distinguished. Kids loved the Shoyu and Curry Chicken Katsu. Coco Ramen and Coconut Thai next door are essentially one operation so you can order Thai dishes here as well and we loved the Papaya Shrimp Salad. The indoor space is limited, especially for groups of 4+, in which there are only 3 large tables. There is an outdoor space which may be utilized in the summer."
"Ramen was decent for takeout. The fried oyster was good, but they did a poor job with the shelling so there were bits of it in a few of the pieces. Tried it again indoors and the food was definitely better and tastier. It's a small restaurant and the decor is nice."
"We went to Coco Ramen and they graciously moved us to the neighboring space for a sit down spot since they were full. The service was very fast. We asked what the difference was between the broths and the waitress kindly answered. The spicy ramen bowls were very hearty and tasty and the fried oysters were all right. I would have liked maybe a little more toppings, but overall great food and experience!"
"I was excited to try Coco Ramen in Newton Center based on high online ratings. We started with fried oysters and karaage chicken. The fried oysters were good, crispy outside and juicy inside. The karaage chicken was decent but had some tougher tendon parts. I'd probably order both again. I chose the dirty shoyu ramen with chicken, described as a creamier shoyu ramen. The broth was average, with a large serving of noodles and a good amount of chicken. The noodles were standard packaged yellow curly ones, and the chicken, being a chicken breast, was unfortunately tough. I also tried the chashu, thinly sliced but a bit hard. I sampled both the curry ramen and spicy miso broths, which tasted good but not exceptional. I'm unsure if I'd return, but if I did, I might opt for the shoyu ramen, although I wasn't a fan of the protein choices. They offer a nice selection of beverages, and the service is good, managing to fit a good number of tables in the small space. Overall it's a solid spot but in an area with so many great ramen options, I probably wouldn't come back."
