Nama Noodle Bar

Cute mom n pops restaurant with a boba place inside. I ordered the hojicha boba latte and it has the perfect deep matcha flavor. She whisked the hojicha right in front of me so I know it’s authentic. So affordable which is hard to find good boba places that don’t charge extra for milk alternatives or boba!! Great service as well they are fast and very sweet. Would come back again.

Food was great, so was the bubble tea, they got a great variety of flavors! Hospitality was excellent, overall a fantastic experience! Will be coming back!

You come in and order on the kiosk or on your phone at the table from a QR code. It’s got a nice vibe- like a family-modern mix with the robot everyone mentions.

The good. Everything I had, really. I got the pork rice bowl and it was tasty, very good meat portions which goes a long way in my book. I used to work at a ramen place myself so I feel guilty not getting their ramen the first time but it’s definitely worth a revisit.

The bad. Nada man, get your wallet out and try some good food made by humans before all food gets made by the same technodystopia that’ll also be writing the reviews. The server robot gets a pass, I’m expecting to see him soon.

Try their new Pan Fried Pork buns, excellent to pair with the salted yolk lava buns & spicy mayo to dip! Altogether only $10-11 for a tasty, sweet egg & meat treat. Alternatively would go great with any of their milk tea drinks (which are available with almond or oat milk if you prefer, I know I prefer oat!)

Nama Noodle Bar remains a delightful family run restaurant that blurs into hyper modern customer service, and I don't just mean the robot waiter. Love the simplicity of the Toast tab app. It also still feels like a mom & pop shop inside which is great!

Note for locals: you'll get nearly twice the portions of meat in ramen bowls here than you would get from the nearby JINYA, I highly recommend coming to Nama Noodle Bar instead if you're looking for a cheaper and more filling meal! $14 ramen bowls and twice the meat? Sounds great right 👏

The ramen bowls here NEVER short you on ingredients and always leave you feeling very full. They pack it so efficiently for taking home but I highly recommend eating inside while it's fresh if you can. I love sitting inside here more than most places and they have so many great seating options, robot aside—it's just nice, roomy, and chill

The food was very good and the boba tea was very yummy. For a cheap price (in my opinion) you get a lot of food. I loved the robot waiter that served our food. Truely a great experience!! :)
