    The food was very good. A little more than our favorite place in Cambridge, MA, but closer and nicer ambiance. Service was good.

    This was our second time eating at Chashu Ramen + Izakaya, and it was just as good as the first. The ambiance and service is top notch! The restaurant itself has a great vibe. The food and drinks are also top notch! We started off our meal with the fried chicken and brisket bao, both were great the meat was tender and the slaw and sauce were a nice tangy contrast. The bao buns themselves were incredible; perfectly soft and pillowy. We both had ramen for a main course. I got the red miso tonkatsu and my partner got the ghost tonkatsu. Both were amazing, the noodles were perfectly cooked, the broth was rich and flavorful and the toppings perfectly prepared. A warning that the ghost tonkatsu was super spice was definitely warranted. It left us both with our faces flushed and noses running in the best way possible. Definitely one of our new favorites in Worcester!

    Love the atmosphere. There was a company's holiday party on the bar side, but that's the season. Ramen was on point, nice kick to it without being too overwhelming, and the Baklava Ice Cream was great.
