DOMU - Dr. Phillips

We loved the ramen! The broth was full of flavor and the meat was tender. The boba wasn't the usual Asian style we expected, but it was still worth trying. Can't wait to eat here again!

ALWAYS have a great experience and AMAZING food and drinks. Both the usual drinks and the seasonal drinks are very good. Presentation is always great and the flavors are phenomenal a must visit. Cost wasn’t bad at all but I usually get one or two seasonal drinks when I go which adds up BUT worth it if you are into craft cocktails

On Trial: DOMU - Dr. Phillips Location Food: Excellent – Amazing fresh flavors in the ramen. The Richie Rich was to die for. The wings are next level, perfectly crispy exterior with a juicy interior and phenomenal sauce. The coffee ice cream was on point and brought the meal to a wonderful close. Service: Excellent – We were quickly sat and well taken care of. Atmosphere: Fun vibe, though it can get loud in the smaller dining room area. THE VERDICTS IN - DOMU is a must try and we will be back.

Staff was great. There was a wait which we were informed of and we told they were out of a few items, which is understandable being a double mid week holidays. Everything was good. And a special thank you to the young couple that picked up our tad for no apparent reason. Thank you everyone for a great time!

Went here for dinner , definitely suggest early arrival. Wait time was 75 minutes but I was able to get 2 seats at the bar after 25 minutes. Food and drinks we amazing. Definitely worth the trip.

Domu was a recommendation from my daughter when we traveled to visit her in Florida. Wow! This unassuming ramen restaurant located in a strip mall in Orlando absolutely hit 100%!! We started with the wings, very crispy, just a perfect cook. The flavor was full but not spicy. The star was the ramen. I ordered the spicy tontaksu with black garlic and marinated sprouts. The broth was deep, huge umami punch 👊 chasu was thick but very tender. The noodles were very bouncy and handmade! I would highly recommend hit them up when you visit Orlando.

Domu was amazing! There was a wait, but that was to be expected. We waited about 45 minutes after getting there right at 5. We ordered three appetizers- the Domu wings, the Cheezus and the cucumbers. All three were delicious. The wings were crispy and flavorful. The cucumber salad was my favorite- a sesame sauce with so much flavor, and the chili crisp really added a nice texture. The Cheezus was good but a lot- mostly cheese. Then we ordered our ramen. I ordered the black garlic tonkotsu ramen and my husband ordered the spicy tonkotsu. Both were delicious, but we decided the black garlic was better. The broth was rich and the noodles were perfectly cooked. So flavorful. And the chashu was tender and flavorful as well. We were so full at the end. It was an excellent experience.

As a person who isn't a huge fan of Ramen, I wasn't very eager to try this place. But since my husband is an avid Ramen lover, we decided to see what the hype was all about. THIS RAMEN WAS AMAZINGGGGG!! The broth is so rich + decadent that it almost feels like its thicker than it actually is. The flavors are incredible to the very last drop. We ordered the Spicy Tonkotsu, it wasn't too spicy at all, the the perfect level of spice to elevate the dish. And it doesnt stop there, the wings were easily some of the best wings we've ever eaten. The sauce has a distinct Asian flavor. But while they are completely covered in sauce, the batter is still crispy + crunchy, which perfectly (not over-cooked) juicy white meat inside. Phenomenal! I ordered 2 Gimlets while dining there which I highly recommend for their delicately bold flavor + smoothness. My lobster roll was crammed with lump lobster meat and paired SO WELL with the side of gochujang mayo I requested on the side.

I came here with my girlfriend for my birthday. It was our first going out for ramen in Orlando since we’ve moved here. The overall experience was amazing! we walked straight in and were greeted and seated immediately. We first ordered the lychee martinis recommended by our awesome waitress Hannah and got the hot honey wings as an appetizer. The wings were perfect sweet and crispy, and the drinks were well balanced. For the entree I ordered the curry ramen and that was THE BEST RAMEN IVE EVER HAD. Like I said before overall great experience and shoutout to our waitress Hannah she did great. Ps the horchata ice cream is the bomb.com lol

Domu felt like it would be an uptight experience, however, it was more casual then I expected. The servers were in jeans, t shirts, and baseball caps. It was my first experience but I already knew I wanted to try their award winning wings. They were sweeter than expected but very crispy in a caramelized way. The toasted sesame seeds were an excellent touch! I ordered the Tokyo ramen and it was perfect. None of the ingredients were overpowering and everything complemented each other. Will return.

We had an amazing experience at Domu! Brandon, the bartender was incredibly friendly, attentive, and really knew how to craft the perfect drink. The cocktails were spot-on. The chicken wings were absolutely incredible☺️ crispy, flavorful, and easily some of the best we’ve had in Orlando. The octopus was also outstanding: tender, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Overall, fantastic service and unforgettable food. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I went there on Thursday with my wife for dinner, and we absolutely loved it. This must be our fourth or fifth time visiting, and honestly, when it comes to price and quality, this place is unbeatable. The food is always excellent and reasonably priced. We tried the new octopus dish for the first time and were blown away by how good it was sweet, salty, tangy it had every flavor perfectly balanced. We also ordered the dry ramen, which we always get and love, and a tuna bowl that was just delicious. We brought our dogs with us, sat outside, and they even got water served for them, which was such a nice touch. This is truly one of my favorite spots in Orlando I always recommend it because every single dish is great.

We stopped by Domu for a date night and had a great time. The wait was about 45 minutes, but they had bar seating where we grabbed a drink, so it didn’t feel bad at all. The food was absolutely worth it — those wings were out of the park and the fingerling bravas were crazy good (definitely a must-try). I had the Richie Rich ramen and my girlfriend got the hot curry ramen — both were amazing, super flavorful, and filling. Service was a little on the slower side, but honestly, with how packed they were, it made sense. Overall, the vibe, food, and drinks made it a solid night, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend.

Ok. Let me start with how busy this place is and unbelievable that even after 2 hours of waiting ,partner and I couldn't be seated. Insane! Thank God we lived close by, so we came back after the time they told us ,but this is just unbelievable. You can't take reservations. They don't have enough seating's which is very unfortunate. Host was very pleasant and nice...this is not her mistake, so other people were getting mad at her without no reason. Our server Fernandno was good guy, only one thing I notice he was a bit lazy to talk and guide us thru some questions that we had. Highlight for both, partner and myself was *Cucumber salad. Very crunchy ,tasty and even a bit spicy ,which we personally loved it! Ramen was good but nothing spectacular. Didn't meet my expectations ,unfortunately, not enough broth. Improve in dinning guys ,you can do better. Thank you !

The hype is here, but they don’t deliver on time we waited and waited for our table for our food and it came out in single dishes when we ordered 9!items. The chicken was crispy and tasty but everything else took so long. Cucumbers were perfectly spicy and crispy. The Richie Rich ramen was perfectly creamy but took over an hour after the order. The $15.5 CHASHU DON rice bowl took even longer but was tasty.

It has young & hip vibe with loud music and a big bar at the entrance. It's fusion & the flavors are not as authentic. We ordered the wings, black garlic tonkotsu, & spicy creamy miso. The tonkotsu was much more creamy than the creamy miso. The wings are a popular fish as it's double fried like the Korean style. The portions are small & the drinks all have cute fancy names that come in small glasses.

My friend and I recently came to Domu two nights in a row. The first night was great! The kimchi butter wings were delicious as always and the ramen’s flavor was amazing. We had a really great time there. We enjoyed it so much that we came a second time the following evening. It was much busier as we came around 7 pm, so it was a 45 minute wait. We had no issue with the wait at all. We were finally seated and we put our order in, although I decided to try the dipping ramen instead. My friend got his ramen and I was waiting for my food, about 5 minutes passed and I still haven’t gotten my food. Our waiter was busy attending to other people, so I waited for them to make their way back over to us. After a little over 10 minutes, it seemed our waiter realized I didn’t have my food. He disappeared to the kitchen and then came back to apologize about the wait. He said something else, but it was hard to hear over the volume of other customers enjoying their meal and company. So I waited for another 5 minutes and my food was brought out to me. The flavor of the dipping ramen was really good, but it wasn’t hot. It was barely warm and the outside of the bowl was a bit dirty. Dried broth crusted around the rim. I’m not sure if my food was forgotten about, so they had to reheat it. I’m not sure what happened. I really enjoyed the flavor, but it was a bit hard to enjoy as the broth got cold really fast. It was a bit disappointing, but I would still come again. I’d probably come at an earlier time to avoid dinner rush.

If my wife and I were on a date, this would be a beautiful place to take her for some decent ramen and great ambiance. Michelin rated ramen spot in Orlando had our interest peaked. It was unusually cold that night, about 40 degrees. There was over an hour queue on a Tuesday night and they don't do reservations, so I told the hostess we would be willing to sit outside if that would get us a table faster. After a 70 minute wait, we were sat outside. We were fine with it since the ramen would be warming. Waitress greets us to take our drink order. I give her our full order and let her know to bring it all out (wife was cold and tired from a long day). They still spaced everything out as if we wanted a long dining experience sitting outside in the cold. My drink comes out, then 10 minutes later a crab roll, then 10 minutes later the lobster roll, then another 10 for the chicken wings. Finally one bowl of ramen comes out, but my wife's bowl is missing. It takes them a few minutes to come by after dropping off my bowl to ask if we needed anything else. Yes, the other bowl of ramen. They say they will go check on it. It takes over 10 minutes for wife's bowl to arrive. They said they ran out of bowls? The Tonkotsu broth itself was a bit light (vs creamy/fatty thick) broth we are used to. Flavor was decent. Good amount of pork. Half an egg. Chicken wings were crispy and tangy, good balance of flavor. Nothing special about the crab or lobster roll, but they were good. Fun mixed drinks. They were apologetic at the end and gave a discount which equalled to about half price on her bowl, which she only ate half because she was over the experience by then.

Place was very crowded and they had us sitting at a high top with other people. The chairs and table are so very uncomfortable and they had us wait an hour for a table and 40 mins for our food. We got the food the ramen was reasonably good, however, 20 mins later and I had the worst stomachache of my life. It’s the next day today and both me and my friend are throwing up from the ramen. Would not recommend. They should check the food safety in that establishment the food should not have made us sick.

My wife and I had our last night in Orlando. We’re from NOLA. We’ve heard the best things about the wings. We arrive at 7:30pm. They tell us it will be an hour wait. It’s fine. We had a long day of Orlando adventures. And we’re hungry! We want these wings! We shall wait. We were able to order a drink. Kyoto mule was delicious. My wife got a margarita. We were having a great time enjoying our drinks and excited to get these wings. An hour of waiting later. We get to our table. “Hey yall welcome, just so yall know. We’re out of wings…” it took a lot for me to hold back my frustrations. Given we traveled so far and had such a long day and was looking forward to this night. Waiter was in good spirit about it. Not his fault. The part that bothered me. This couldn’t have been told to me before we sat down?? Lack of communication and lack of preparation from the kitchen lead to this. I wasted an entire hour. Mind you. Nearby good eats close at 9pm. It was 8:30pm. Not only wasted time but I feel like I wasted an entire last night in ORL. Thank you Domu… all I’m saying be better. Let your guest know please in advance if you all are low/out on supply of food. Better prepare for these type of nights. You can’t run out of your most popular item…

Was doing some shopping at the Outlets today, and decided to finally give this place a try at the recommendation of many friends. For at least a year now I’ve been hearing how the wings here are voted best in Orlando, and honestly, I’ve very surprised. Got there around 1:30 with plans to sit at the bar. Despite it being more than half empty, I waited 30 mins in line outside to be seated per the request of the kid seating people. They were clearly understaffed because there was one busboy, one server, a bartender pulling double duty serving the outside seats and a food runner for a very full restaurant. Also, another staff member who seemed to just be standing around talking. The bartender was great, friendly, chatty, and great at his craft, despite being short staffed. On weekends, they only offer a brunch menu during the day, so I ordered both types of wings, since I wasn’t feeling ramen and everything else I wanted to try was not available. They came out after about 15 minutes. The Domu wings were not very warm and had too much batter on them. They look like big wings, but when you bite into them, you learn it’s mostly the batter. They kept cutting the roof of my mouth, and it took a lot of work to get to the meat. The flavor was not bad but since the chicken was cold, it wasn’t my favorite. The seasonal flavor was a Yuzu and Citrus pepper. The flavors did not pair well. They were overly salty, and left a bad taste in my mouth. I did like how they had a variety of seating options: indoor, outdoor, bar seating and some cool chair and couch options at the front to give it a lounge feel. I also really liked the open kitchen. Overall, my experience was very disappointing, and I feel this spot if overhyped. As someone who lives north of the city, I would say it’s de finely not work the drive. Lucky I was already in the area.
