" Delighted to find such delicious ramen! The chicken broth was hearty and the noodles were flavorful, but I felt it could benefit from a touch more seasoning. The environment was friendly, albeit a little cramped. Good for a quick meal, but don’t expect to linger too long due to limited seating. " (*Curated Review*)

" So I dropped by Tsurumen for a quick bite and left utterly satisfied! I had the classic pork shoyu ramen, and the flavor was exquisite. I especially loved the tender chashu, which melted in my mouth. The cleanliness of the place also stood out. If you're in Davis SQ, don’t snooze on this location! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic meal at Tsurumen! The ramen had a wonderful balance of flavors, and it was clear the chefs know their craft. The only reason I'm not leaving a perfect score is that the space is a bit tight. Plan to get there early to beat the crowds - I will absolutely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Tsurumen felt like a delightful trip to Japan! The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, and the attention to detail in each bowl was remarkable. I had the miso ramen, and oh my, it was packed with umami! The onsen egg was a perfect addition. I can definitely see why this place has become a local favorite. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decent ramen, but I expected more given the reputation. The noodles were good, but the broth lacked depth. I appreciate the clean atmosphere and friendly service, but overall it didn’t meet my personal expectation of authenticity. I might explore other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Perfect place for ramen lovers! I went with friends and we tried various dishes, all of which were delicious. The chicken-based broth is refreshing, and the noodles had the perfect chew. The only downside was the wait time, but we enjoyed sitting at the counter and watching the chefs at work. Definitely going back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally tried Tsurumen after hearing so much buzz. The ramen was definitely good, yet I found it a bit on the salty side. The ambiance was lively and full of energy. I enjoyed the casual atmosphere, but I feel the balance of flavor could use some tweaking. Would return to give it another try! " (*Curated Review*)
