A WOW meal in the East End Market. Get there early to be guaranteed a seat. Fantastic cocktail menu; food menu; and of course ramen. Decent Happy Hour as well! Only critique is that the house sake was a bit too sweet for me and our server described it as on the dryer side. Worth the hype.

Food- 10/10, all around excellent. Service - 10/10 Atmosphere - 8/10 mainly b/c tables can be tight and the noise level can detract from experience. Db level averaged around 85 according to my app. May want to bring ear plugs if noise bothers you. Otherwise, outside noise, it’s a great place and would gladly go back.

I love everything about this place and you'll see everyone else does too by the wait time when you get there. Chill vibes and food is amazing!! Chicken wings and the krabby patty are delicious and i usually get get them as my appetizer. then I get the Richie rich ramen bowl to cap it off. Can't forget about the adult beverage either :D

What a place! Hits almost all the spots you want from a ramen joint. The wait was long but oh boy it was worth it. The chicken, super crispy and the broth so rich! We got the Richie Rich and Tokyo Ramen. Great options. Just a shame that we can't see chef Nguyen on the works. But a good spot nevertheless. The chashu was a tad bit small but the ramen overall was on point.

This was my first time having “real” ramen! Seriously an amazing experience. Four of us requested to sit at the chefs table and we were sat way sooner than our quoted wait time which was great. The ambiance and watching the chefs at work was very cool. I wasn’t sure what to get so we just got a bunch of stuff to share which was perfect. The wings are a must! The Cheezus and pigs in a blanket were also delicious. My friend and I each got a ramen dish (Richie rich and the Tokyo one) and both were out of this world!! The eggs are caramelized and cooked to perfection. I’m glad we added more to our dishes! To drink I had the Mango Lychee Lemonade with Mango boba. There have a few other yummy non-alcoholic mocktails which I always appreciate! We wanted dessert but were absolutely too full so we skipped it, but next time I’ll definitely save room.

All the food and Ramen was really good especially the chicken Wings. If you order, nothing else, please order the wings. The wings were really good. Get the wings. The potato appetizer was also really good and don’t forget to get the wings original.😃

It’s worth the parking hassle because once you’re in you’re in and even if there’s no more seating, sit at the bar! You don’t wanna miss this it is amazing. I love coming to this place and I don’t get to go often so enjoy it. I wish I could take them all home with me. The service is amazing. The people are chilled and laid-back. it feels like I could just grab my book and read and eat or just bring a friend And enjoy each other’s company while we enjoy some amazing food. You must order the wings. There’s no way around that and their drinks are amazing.

You absolutely have to get there early & it’s so worth it. One of my all time favorites. ~*I love you ramen egg~*

Pretty good ramen for FL. They have quite a few different broths that are all flavorful and delicious. The toppings are generous and paired perfectly with the ramen. I also highly recommend their kimchi, great tangy flavor that cuts through some of the fatty ramen broth perfectly. Prices are pretty amazing for the quality and service was friendly and relatively fast. Decor is beautiful and fun. Edit: Domu has really grown in the last several years and even got Bib Gourmand status. It is a flex that they remain so busy and don't take reservations even on Thursday nights. For awhile, we didn't see why everyone was so obsessed with the ramen. This last visit has redeemed itself. They've made improvements, and we were very impressed by ramen broths and noodle texture. Also highly recommend lobster roll. Still don't understand why everyone is obsessed with the wings.

We were passing through and had to try! Who knew we had a Michelin Star Ramen Bar in Florida? Not I, but it was amazing. I'm really more of a Pho girl, but wow! We got the classic Richi Rich. Very rich and delicious broth, amazing homemade noodles, beautiful toppings, and flavorful egg. Ordered extra broth of course. The DOMU wings are a must try. Extra crispy and amazing flavor! I can wait to go back and try more things. Staff was super kind and professional. Beware! Wait-times may be long. If you can, wait at the door 20 minutes before opening. Aftet that, wait times are only long because everyone who was waiting all got sat and served at the same time, so you'd have to wait until they're done. A great and delicious experience!

This place is awesome! Great drinks, full bar. Great service! Make sure to either get there early, or prepared to wait. They are always full, but you can wait at the bar and enjoy some drinks. We had appetizers and the best Ramen I have ever had. It’s located in the East Side Market plaza, you can walk around and enjoy the neighborhood after dinner. If you seat inside, you’d be able to see the kitchen and the art on the walls.

First time experience and it was an excellent one. Usually it’s very busy and has wait times but I went right at opening. Everything from the cocktails, wings, and Ramen are delicious. I highly recommend the Richie Rich ramen …. It was recommended to me and you will not be disappointed. The service at the restaurant for the amount of volume they receive is also excellent. Enjoy!

+3

Great food, worth the wait! Get in line an hour before open for the fastest seating!

Service is great. We got the chicken wing app - it was crispy, sweet/tangy and hot!! What more can you ask for in wings? Also got the octopus app which was not our favorite. Their ramen and drinks are delish as well. Be sure to arrive early as the line gets long. We got there half hour before opening and there was already people waiting.

Food was great service awesome the wings if u haven't had them you got to try them.

Extremely great food. The wings are really good with a sticky sweet flavor. We had the YUZU SHOYU, vegan and spicy curry ramen and it was incredible.. the medium curry was a bit spicier than I I was expecting but it was so flavorful

+5

Great staff, wonderful bartender and good food! The wings were so wonderful as always. 6 is the perfect amount. Spicy Ramen was good as well. The drinks were perfect and made with such care. Thank you Domu! We will be back! *(Provided great precautions and made my husband and I feel safe to eat out.)

🍜Best Ramen in Orlando🍜 DOMU is my preferred ramen eatery in Orlando. The atmosphere features bar-style seating and a lively atmosphere where you can face directly into the kitchen prep area and watch the food be assembled in real-time. Praise and publicity from critics mean that DOMU can fill up quickly, so I recommend arriving as close to 11:00 (opening time) as possible. The luncheon menu is a bit more limited than the dinner menu, but most of the popular and best-selling items are included. The Black Tonkatsu Ramen is my favorite (SHIO PORK BONE BROTH, MENMA, SCALLIONS, AJITAMA, CHASHU, BLACK GARLIC + KOMI OIL). I add bean sprouts and seasoned wood ear mushrooms to the mix. The garlic lingers in the savory, creamy broth, seasoning it without overpowering it. The pork and egg are tender enough to break into pieces and mix into the bowl. I found myself completely filled up--the ramen bowl is a *lot* deeper than it looks! If you get an appetizer, don't miss the Domu Wings (6 EXTRA CRISPY WINGS COATED W/ KIMCHI BUTTER SAUCE AND SESAME SEEDS). They're tenderly prepared in a crispy, almost orange-chicken-coated shell of deliciousness. The Kimchi Butter Sauce absolutely *makes* it. After your dining experience at DOMU, head upstairs to Wafu and enjoy a unique, very Instagrammable, Taiyaki-cone ice cream. Happy eating! いただきます!

i love this place. My go to is the spicy miso, it’s so flavorful and i love the texture of the curly noodle. The wings have the most amazing crunch and the cheezus always hits the spot. The bartenders, especially dyl, rule. They’re so nice and make the best drinks!

It was an hour wait with no reservation and scarce parking, even on a Thursday for dinner. The food, however, was well worth the wait. I got the Tokyo, Ajitama brulee was incredible, and I drank the entire bowl of broth afterward. My partner got the hot Tsukemen and absolutely loved it. I also recommend getting the L.O.V.E. mocktail if you love very sweet and tart drinks. Definitely the best ramen I've had in Orlando and worthy of the Michelin recommendation without a killer price tag.

This was the best dining experience of my life. Full stop. There is in no way it can be improved. If you're able go here go. There will be a wait, you can't make a reservation, who cares; get over it. Perfection takes time and is worth waiting for. Go upstairs, get a cocktail, buy a ring or one of those fish things. Tako, cheesus, Richie rich, wings, sake

This came up often as a must try in Orlando, so my husband and I decided to check it out. The wait time for dinner was crazy long so we left and came back the next day for lunch. There was no wait for lunch. We shared: - DOMU Wings - Curry Ramen - Uni Mazemen The wings are a must order and were my favorite thing we got. The sauce was very unique and I loved it. I also really enjoyed the Uni Mazemen. The ramen was good, but it was my least favorite thing we got.

First time and won't be the last... To start we had the best bar service while waiting. Kat was absolutely amazing and made some really good drinks. The chicken wings are a must and the ramen of course was delicious. I see why people rave about Domu now. Great experience, delicious food and enjoyable hospitality. Thanks you!!!

One of my fav spots to visit when i am craving ramen ! I always bring my friends that arw visiting Orlando. the food never disappoints and the omg the wings are one of the greatest wings i have ever tried in my whole life. My fav bartender Gina is so amazing! She is so professional, helpful, fun and the drinks are so delicious Thank you Domu for making me happy always

The wings were decent, not mind blowing like someone have hyped it up to he. The ramen itself is very good, probably top 5 ramen I have had.

Reviews are important. Read them to make the most out of your experience. I use to be able to wait 2 hours for my fav restaurants. I can't do that anymore. I read the reviews. Went for my first time to this restaurant 10 mins after it opened on a Friday evening. My group of four got sat right away. The waiter was funny, friendly, attentive, recommended tasty alcoholic beverages, knew the menu very well, came back to our table multiple times. The wings by far my favorite. The ramen tasty and the drinks delicious! The aesthetics of the restaurant also very pleasing. Hands down a great first time experience. By the time we left there a long line of folks waiting. It's a must try restaurant.

Sounds like the latest review came from someone who thinks the world revolves around them! Sounds like an “honest mistake.” Anyways! As for my experience, everything was fantastic! The wings were incredible, and the wagyu mazamen is my new favorite. Our server, Teddy, went above and beyond. He made my parents feel comfortable and welcomed, especially when explaining the menu since they’d never had ramen before. Great experience all around

Food was amazing! The buns aren’t your traditional Japanese bao buns but they are a yummy meal to try. I had the pig and the blanket and the seafood bun. The Richie Rich ramen was delicious and very flavor full. Wings were cooked to perfect and savory! 10/10 would recommend this place.

Good and drinks are great here! The tables are a bit tight/ close together but I’m guessing it’s bc it gets full there? Idk. I’d still go back though. Everything was tasty especially the wings!

If anyone were to ask me where the best wings are in Florida my response would be quick and simple,DOMU! I was told that we had to check this place out for wings in regardless of what flavor you order they could put a guarantee that you will thoroughly enjoy them. I also had the Richie Rich Ramen bowl and ordered the spam Sando on the side. I left pretty full but man Look forward to the next time I go back. 100% satisfied. Jeep and we find restaurants all over Central Florida to finish out a trail ride. I will definitely have to figure out how to get this location onto a trail. Any place that has a line out the door before they open means that that's a great place. Not to mention all the other venues that are in the same market. even the napkins were above normal. But don't expect to be charged exuberant amounts and get one bite of food. The wings are worth the price. The service was outstanding the staff was great after ordering it came very quickly to the table. They also kept our drinks full.

+1

What more to say 5 out of 5 stars. The wait time to get a table can be a little off putting sometimes but totally worth it. We tried appetizers and dinner and dessert. We were thrilled with everything that came to the table and everything that we got served.Top to bottom this place is a really well-rounded place and fresh food in a timely manner. This will definitely be one of our regular spots.

+1

To secure a reservation, I recommend calling ahead since they accept walk-ins but expect at least a 30-minute wait due to high customer volume. The space is narrow with chairs and tables placed side by side, which can make it a bit noisy. I tried the black tonkatsu, which was average in flavor, and my partner tried the Richie Rich noodles, which was very palatable and the best among their noodle options. The Domu chicken with kimchi was crispy on the skin and flavorful inside, so we will plan to return to try more noodles and reorder the kimchi chicken.

+5

Arrived at 4:30pm, and there was already a line (they open at 5). After getting in, we waited about another hour. Despite the wait, it was absolutely worth it. The appetizers were fantastic, and the Ramen was incredible—definitely top-notch food without any of the pretentiousness. Highly recommend!

We walked into the restaurant with no reservation for a party of 3 and waited roughly an hour. it was well worth the wait. I had no idea I was going to be tasting some of the best ramen I've had yet. The menu looked reasonably priced across the board, and the ramen portions are big. I ordered the Tokyo, and that was probably the best bowl of ramen I've had yet!

One of the best meals I've had in the Orlando area.. possibly the best ramen I've ever had. The wings were also phenomenal. The restaurant was busy but the wait wasn't that long even when they were at capacity. There is plenty to check out in the East End Market while waiting. The staff was friendly and the kitchen was efficient as you would hope for at this highly rated establishment. One-hundred percent worth a visit.

What is there not to like about this place. You enter and there’s a cool bar and waiting area. On the wall you see all the awards and Michelin signs. My friend and I stopped by right when they opened on a busy Saturday. We started with the bottomless lychee mimosas and wings. The wings are a must order and a lot of Yelpers got it right for some of the highest rated wings in the area. We ordered the Richie Rich. This is the same bowl featured on Netflix Feed Phil Season 7. Man was this broth rich! It’s a rich miso shoyo pork bone base broth. The chasu was cooked perfectly and the fried garlic added some nice texture. All the aromatics and flavors were on point. This is a definite must dine in restaurant when visiting Orlando and this specific OG location. Highly recommend getting here early if you plan to come for brunch as the line was already long at 1050 Am.

The ramen is absolutely spectacular. I love that they have seasonal chicken wings. It is of not they don’t accept reservations so get there early.

After enjoying REAL ramen during our vacation in Japan, we began our search for something that might compare, once we returned to the Orlando area. *BAM* We found DOMU and became instant fans. If you like your ramen extra spicy, just say so. Try their award-winning wings. Make sure you tip the team in the kitchen!

The best ramen in Orlando, i recommend the Richie Rich, the wings are also some of the best I’ve had. Definitely a must if you live in the area.

BEST Ramen you will ever have!! Riche Rich is by far the best ramen I ever had and it has such diverse flavors in one bowl of ramen and I’m not a big ramen person. We also tried the Yuzu Shoyu which had a nice citrus flavor and also was pretty good too. The Fried Chicken Sando which was very tasty; it’s coated in that yummy kimchi butter sauce but I did wish they had put a bit more of the slaw on there. We went on a Saturday for brunch and it wasn’t super packed; the wait was about 45 minutes but parking was limited.

Domu at East End Market is hands down one of the best dining experiences in Orlando. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is inviting—modern, vibrant, and energetic without being overwhelming. The service is top-notch, with staff who are knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. Now, the food—absolutely incredible. The ramen is rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, with broth that clearly took hours to perfect. The noodles have the perfect chew, and the toppings are fresh and thoughtfully selected. The Domu Wings? Easily the best wings I’ve had—crispy, flavorful, and addictive. Every dish I tried was crafted with precision and care. Whether you’re a ramen enthusiast or just looking for an unforgettable meal, Domu delivers. This place sets the bar high for quality and consistency. If you’re in Orlando, do yourself a favor and eat here. You won’t regret it!

We’ve tried getting in several times over the last year and a half and finally made it!! Honestly from the hype we expected a bit more. Fun atmosphere, great service and tasty ramen. The wings were very good, the texture was perfect and the sauce was not overpowering. We also tried 3 ramen bowls 1). The vegan was good, not too salty - which is my usual experience - added the mushrooms, I ordered spicy, which I didn’t find it to be at all; 2) Tonkotsu- she liked it, would recommend add-ons to it, she got it with corn and mushrooms, really good broth 3). Tokyo-the chicken, mushrooms and peppers were really good flavor, he loves the broth, would get again with an add on. We all agreed the noodles were delicious but nothing we could see ourselves eager to go back for. Glad we did it though!

I love it. Rcm domu wings (like korean bbq fried chicken) and ritchie rich ramen (so good). The curry ramen was good but not that good (very spicy). Waited for more than 1 hour

+1

The hot dipping noodles are one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. Even Chicago’s food scene hasn’t caught up to Domu in that dish. Chicken wings were stellar with confusingly good crisp! First come first serve, no reservations. You can order apps and drinks while you wait. Love the model.

+1

Easily the best ramen place I have been to in my life. The atmosphere is perfect and the ramen is phenomenal. You can really tell that they take time in preparing and making their broth, noodles, and different ingredients that are carefully chosen for the perfect bowl. Wait staff were kind and welcoming and super helpful throughout our evening. Luckily, we got there 10 minutes before they opened and there was a line of about 20 behind us waiting to get in right as they open. I would say it's 100% worth it to wait in line or wait for a table and I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. 10/10!

We sat at the bar last night and had an incredible time. As always Kat is an absolute delight and Kayla came around to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. We ordered the wings, the curry ramen, a few drinks and enjoyed insightful conversations from the bar crowd and staff. We will be back! Thank you for always being on point and looking out for your guests. Our experience through and through is always top tier.

UGH. This place is AMAZING and worth the long wait. I arrived around 30 minutes before opening and it was a very long line outside. It started pouring rain, but I stayed outside in the pouring rain waiting for them to open just so I can eat here. It was 100% worth it. The plating and beverage art is so well thought out and beautiful. The wings are so crispy and flavorful, and the ramen is so good. 10/10

This place is a vibe. Wait was about an hour on a Monday night arriving at 530. Absolutely WORTH the wait. Ordered the Richie Rich and it was the BEST bowl of ramen I have EVER had. Pork was melt in your mouth. The broth had a complex high level of flavor 🤌🏻. 10/10

We came for ramen and we got that with a cheezus while we waited about an hour to be seated. My choice was the Richie Rich(Amazing combination of flavors) and my wife got the curry medium that tasted as it should. She then got the Cookie Monster soft serve as they do rotating flavors of the day. It was a good time to chat while waiting for our seats to be ready so this location can get crowded. A request for the house Thai tea was made and it did not ever come out for me yet I will be back to this location or Dr. Phillips sometime. For ramen, they are favorable from all that I have had in the past

Literally the best ramen I’ve ever had. I’m writing this review 5 hours after I’ve eaten and I’m still completely full! The portions are amazing, with SO many noodles I couldn’t even finish it. Their noodles are also made in house, and you can tell, the quality is absolutely amazing. I’ll provide some details just so you know this place is one you’ve GOT TO TRY. Food: Just top tier, quality food. All of the food is comforting and delicious, where the tonkotsu and miso ramen were perfect. I liked the broth of the “Richie Rich” more than the “Black Garlic Tonkotsu” as it had more flavor, but I enjoyed both. The charsu was cooked perfect and everything was very balanced. The ice cream was also soo yummy, they have different flavors every week! We had their mystery flavor and it was very good :) Atmosphere: Such a cute little place, as all of East End Market is. They had a bunch of live plants and a beautiful mural. It is a bit cramped, but we didn’t mind so much. Service: Great service! Our server was very attentive and sooo polite, they’re doing a great job training their employees.

Domu never disappoints. The ramen is hands down some of the best in Orlando - rich, flavorful broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and bold combinations that actually live up to the hype. The wings alone are worth the visit. Crispy, sticky, and packed with flavor. Great atmosphere, cool crowd, and consistently solid service. Whether it’s a casual night out or you’re bringing someone from out of town, Domu is always a safe bet.

Great food and cocktails!! Today we arrived at the tail end of brunch service and waited about 45 min to be seated. While we waited we took advantage of their cocktail bar with a Lychee Martini and Life Finds a Way cocktails-yumm. Lunch was started off with the chicken wings 🤌🏻🤌🏻. Each of us had ramen and I tried the Waygu Sichuan Mazemen for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it!! If you plan to try this gem out, come early or be prepared to wait (East End Market has great shops to check out!). Enjoy!

Domu was such a hidden gem!! it reminded me of the restaurants in Chicago! Was definitely worth the wait. It had a cool/cozy vibe, open concept kitchen, bomb playlist.. and the most AMAZING wings ever!!! Our server Katie was wonderful and sweet! Can’t wait to come back again.

I drive 3 hours to come to eat at this spot and it’s worth the drive/wait every time!! The wagyu bolognese ramen is absolutely immaculate and they have the best fried wings in Florida. Tyler is one of the coolest guys there as well, superb service from him. I hope to see him in a managerial position on day!

Domu is one of the places people are always talking about so we finally decided to give it a try. We had the wings which were stellar, the cheezu which was great, the baby bok choy which was amazing, and the shishito peppers which one of us loved and one of us hated. We also shared the Tokyo ramen which was good but the chicken was very plain. We had hoped to try an ice cream but the flavor was cookie butter which we considered run of the mill so we decided not to. I think we would go back and skip the ramen. We were seated outside which was fine but I do think we were a bit forgotten out there. But everyone was very nice regardless. We did find it very loud, even outside though less so. I definitely think if you've been thinking of trying Domu, it's worth a try. The parking lot does suck and I've heard the wait can get extensive though we were told 45 minutes and only waited 30.

Wow! Came here on a whim after seeing it driving by and I was totally amazed by the ramen! I got their Richie Rich ramen bowl, which seemed to be a popular item. I don’t typically enjoy cha shu pork , however the pork in this ramen had great flavor and seemed to melt in my mouth. A very solid bowl. I have heard from many people that the wings are a must try as well, so I’ll have to return for those! The wait can be a bit on the longer side and the bar is packed as well, so consider that before dining on a busy night. As a solo diner I had no issue finding a bar seat but I saw many parties scoping for an opening. You can order small plates in the waiting area but not ramen, so that’s another consideration. Overall, a solid spot! I’ll be returning to try the wings and grab another bowl of delicious ramen!

Domu is one of my favorites! The chicken wings are absolutely to die for. I don’t even like or usually eat chicken wings, but these are crazy good. Best wings ever. The spicy curry ramen is fantastic and the waygu bolognese will leave you speechless!

WORTH THE WAIT I got the Richie Rich and it was sooo delicious! The best ramen! The wings were the best chicken wings ever! So reasonable prices!

The atmosphere is trendy and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the meal. The food was excellent, flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. The chicken wings were the standout for me, crispy, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. I’d go back just for those! Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and craving something flavorful and satisfying.

This place is worth the wait. It's been a top rated local restaurant for years, and one dining experience is all it takes to see why. The wings are probably the best in the city, the ramen is the best I ever had, and they are always friendly despite how busy they are. Each time I come here I get a new appreciation for the intentionality infused into their dishes and flavors. Expect to wait a while (last time we came it was almost a 2 hour wait but we found a spot at the bar in 30 minutes).

WOW!!! Incredible place. I went to Japan last year for the first time and this ramen is incredibly reminiscent of ones I had there. The noodles are made in house and they taste authentic. We also had the cheezus and chicken wings for appetizer and we loved it. The chicken wings are Asian sweet and super crispy. The cheezus was 10/10 for me. I had the Richie Rich ramen and my husband the Tokyo ramen, we both loved mine most, but his was equally as good. The broth was delicious and the pork belly in it was great. We couldn’t finish our ramen after eating the appetizers. I think prices were fair for the portions. The atmosphere was great, loved the music. We went at 9pm and was told it would be 60-90 min wait, but we waited 45 mins. We actually grabbed seats at the bar about 40 mins in. We also were able to have the appetizers and enjoy the bar before being seated. Our bartender was great, she had such a nice vibe. The mocktail wasn’t my favorite, but it could be just the one I had, the mango lychee lemonade, it was really sour. Overall a definite return for us and we’ll be recommending to everyone we know!!

Thank you Tyler for an amazing evening at Domu! My girlfriend and I greatly enjoyed our meal. We ordered the Richie Rich, and the Cucumber and Tako dishes. All three were amazing! Highly recommend Domu and looking forward to going back and trying something different. Pro tip: food is great and definitely worth the wait. Get there early, check-in and watch a movie while waiting. It’s a fun date night!

Great vibe, incredible food! You will most certainly have a waiting time before you sit for dinner, but it’s worth the wait every time . Tonight I went with a group of friends and we had a feast. We almost tired all the starter plates and each had an entry plate. They have a few locations, yet my favorite location is at East End Market

One of the best places to go for Ramen and the atmosphere is great. Some of my friends came in from out of town and had never experienced ramen before so for their first time they were amazed. We also had the wings but we gulped them down before I got to take a picture but those were a highlight as well. The wait was an hour on a Friday night which it's usually a 3 hr wait so we lucked out. Run don't walk, you won't be disappointed.

Came back to try the regular tonkotsu ramen. I order it spicy and I love it more than the Rickie rich but that’s just personal preference. Ordered wings again bc they are a must. I’ve always heard how good the Ramen is here but I’ve never been. This time around I decided to come and give it a try. I heard I also had to try their wings so I started off by ordering the wings. They where crispy and juicy inside. The sauce was on point. Definitely it was a good recommendation. I order the Richie rich ramen as it seem the speciality of the house and I’m glad I did. It was one of the best ramens I’ve tried out there. I also tried some of the curry ramen. It was good as well but I’ll stick w/ the classic one. Will be back to try more. Better to reserve ahead of time as there seems to be a a waiting line all the time. Service was great

Domu Ramen vs dozens of others. A battle of taste giants. I’ve visited dozens of Ramen spots across Los Angeles including Silverlake and Pasadena’s hotspots as well as Vegas and now Florida. Right or wrong my flavor favorite was always the original Jinya Ramen in the heart of Studio City Los Angeles. My wife insisted we visit Domu which is about two hours from where we live on Florida’s West Coast. The verdict: absolutely worth it. We ordered the Richie Rich (yes the Netflix one) and added extra chashu and another egg. Oh before I forget we also tried their wings which apparently they are very popular amongst the locals. My wife absolutely loved them, for me they were just a distraction from why I was there: Ramen. I won’t lie: it’s delicious. Many ramen places overwhelm you with the richness of their broths and overcook their chashu or eggs. This was just perfect. It was exactly the right amount of flavor, seasoning and fresh ingredients. It might be a little sweet for true die hards but I was pleasantly surprised by the subtle citrus kick. It’s now up there with my favorite ramen spot in the US and since it is several thousand miles closer, that’s a good thing. The staff is really friendly as well, Angie was who attended us today and she was really friendly, had great suggestions and got every order perfect. My wife and kids claim it as their new favorite ramen spot so to each their own, but anyone who visits will understand why this has multiple Michelin nods. Thanks so much to the chef and staff for a wonderful meal and experience

DOMU has been on my foodie list for years, so when I visited friends in Orlando, I finally made it happen—and wow, it did not disappoint. We started with the Cheezus—a molten mozzarella cheese dip loaded with roasted corn, Japanese spices, lime, and a drizzle of kewpie mayo, served with perfectly toasted baguette slices. So cheesy, so flavorful, and that bread? Absolute chef’s kiss. Then came the star of the show: the DOMU wings. I’ve had a lot of wings in my 31 years, but these? Easily the best I’ve ever had. Ultra crispy, super juicy, and coated in that tangy, slightly spicy Kimchi Butter sauce that’s straight-up addictive. These wings deserve their own fan club. For the main event, I had to go with the Ramen—and it was everything I hoped for. Rich, creamy, savory broth, tender noodles, and that gorgeous bruleed egg on top brought it all together. Every slurp felt like a warm hug. DOMU isn’t just a ramen spot—it’s a full-on experience. From the bold flavors to the vibrant atmosphere, they deliver on every level. Whether you’re chasing noodles, wings, or just good vibes, this place is a must. DOMU has officially secured a forever spot on my Orlando hit list!

Went here the other night and the food was amazing. The service was also great. The hostess who had dark brown hair was so sweet and kind. Immediately greeted me with a smile.The server had lots of energy and was very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was also good. I got the ramen and it came out quickly and was eaten quickly. Definitely recommend this place

My daughter recommended this place. There was a long wait. The food made up for it and I would definitely go back.

Domu is hands down one of the best ramen spots I’ve ever been to. The broth is incredibly rich and flavorful, the noodles are perfectly cooked, and every bowl is made with so much care and attention to detail. You can really taste the quality in every bite. The atmosphere is amazing too — cozy, lively, and welcoming. The staff is friendly and makes the whole experience even better. If you love ramen or just want an incredible meal, Domu is an absolute must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back.

El ramen más rico que me he comido en Orlando, las alitas Domu también estaban deliciosas. Y también pedimos un Cheezus. Para quienes deseen visitar este lugar tener en cuenta que veces hay esperas largas, es un restaurante muy concurrió, también es difícil conseguir estacionamiento, pero la comida y los cocteles no decepcionan.

Este lugar tienes precios muy accesible, es un lugar agradable a la vista y acogedor, un personal que te explica los platos y la comida es definitivamente una experiencia inigualable.

We had to wait almost an hour to get a table since the place is pretty small, but it was worth the experience. The ramen didn’t completely win me over... it wasn’t bad, just not my favorite. However, the wings were on a whole different level... seriously amazing!!!! The staff was super friendly and attentive throughout. Overall, a great spot with good food and a nice vibe, just be ready to wait a bit if it’s busy.

They have one of the best chicken wings! Went here for happy hour, and the vibe is great. If you planning to eat for a dine-in, make sure to be early, it was not open yet but there's already a line! Love their cocktails!

I saw this place on The Best of Orlando with Andrew Zimmerman. Had to go check it out because I love ramen noodles. As I rolled up to the there there was a crowd already forming outside of the door. They were probably around 40 people waiting just to get in. The place opens at 5 and it's 4:30 and it's already packed. That lets me know the food must be fantastic. As we finally got our seat around 5:30, the cable that we were set and was extremely small and very very close to my neighbor or should I say every neighbor. It's small, cramped, and packed on a nightly basis. It's so loud in there that you can barely think and it's not even worth trying to have a conversation. Has the server came around she showed us the RQ code to scan on the table to get a menu. The menu consists of some very nice things. Just the basics chicken wings for appetizers and ramen noodles for your main dish. The food came out very quickly and was extremely fresh and the batter on the wings was fantastic. As the noodles came out we noticed that the broth was a bit light for my taste. I make ramen noodles from scratch at home and I make my broth with a really deep flavor. All in all the food was good and the experience was on point for the usual food Network review what I waste my time they're going again, probably so.

Long time supporter of Domu, have always had an incredible culinary experience dining at Domu, the service tonight was a disservice to the work the kitchen puts into creating excellent food. My family and I were served by Brian and we were sat outside, upon request because of the lovely weather out this evening. The downfall of our experience started with an east end marketplace employee cleaning with very strong cleaning supplies, tainting our pallets with the aroma of Fabuloso, then the employee cleaning the patio continued to leaf blow for 30 minutes near the outside dining patio, again disturbing our conversation and dining experience. The appetizers came out hot and fresh, no complaints with the quality of the food, excellent as always. The first bowl of ramen arrived at the table, a party of 5, and the rest of the ramen followed minutes later. Poor communication/orchestration of delivering the food to the table, off putting, but not detrimental. The food runner returned with the rest of the ramen for the table, proceeded to pass out the ramen and when there was a slight confusion as to which ramen was going to each person, the runner audibly and visibly seemed annoyed, replying, “Alrighttttttttt”. Before leaving the table said food runner asked if we needed anything else, to which we asked for a refill of two cokes. That food runner never returned to the table nor communicated to our server we needed refills. The waitstaff seemed understaffed, because our server Brian seemed to be the only one on the floor and it seemed the outside tables were an afterthought to all waitstaff. My family dined with Domu this evening to celebrate father’s birthday and unfortunately the service severely tainted our experience. The food was incredible as always, it’s a shame the service did not match the quality of the food. Will be returning despite service, but hope management considers this as a plea for better standards of service. Shout out to the kitchen though!

Not what it used to be. Noodles must be the cheapest ingredient because my bowl of Ramen, which used to be very balanced with ingredients and broth was almost all noodles tonight. Shishido peppers appetizer is excellent. Very disappointed about the Ramen though.

The food was good, there was a very big wait time we had to wait for 35min for 2 of us. They have a bar at the front where we can buy appetizers and drink while we are waiting. We loved the Kyoto mule. Ramen was good, I felt chicken was a little rubbery. They had one vegan Ramen too.

We ordered the Tonkotsu Black Garlic and the Tan Tan. The tonkotsu was great as always. The Tan Tan is spicy but full of flavor. I shared it with my boyfriend since it’s pretty intense, but if you love spicy, you’ll enjoy it. The only downside is the wait. We waited about an hour and they don’t take reservations, but it was worth it. If you want to eat it hot, sit inside. 🍜

If you want to eat ramen: My experience is from a Friday evening. I arrived to the place around 5:20 pm. Finding parking took me about 15 min (and I felt kind of lucky due to I had to follow a customer to their spot after they were done). There was a line to the hostess that took me about to 20 min to get to the front. When I finally got the front I found out there was wait of 2 hours (keep in mind we were a party of 2). We were finally seated at 7:45pm, the waitress was pretty good. we gave her our order by the first 7 min, and the food took 20 min to get served. Therefore, from getting to the restaurant to have your food takes a little less than 3 hours. The food is pretty good, but there is places as good as this 15-20 min away from this place. The restaurant has a very small area that is completely packed of how many people are waiting in the bar area or standing, the inside dine in is pretty small and that’s why the wait is so long ( in my opinion a marketing strategy). Overall great food! not worth the wait tho 🙁

My experience at Domu was a good one! We were seated almost right away, and the staff was warm and welcoming. The food was tasty, though the portions were smaller than I expected, especially considering the price. I really loved the atmosphere; it had a cool, urban vibe that added to the overall experience. I’d definitely come back and check it out again!

Wow just wow the flavor of the food was just simply amazing!! My wife had the Richie rich with corn and I had the black garlic Tonkatsu with pork and fried chicken. Extremely delicious!! We also got the kids ramen they were in love with it! My daughter was blown away by how delicious it was! The wings are a must get super tasty and crunchy! My biggest complaint is the wait time for a big party. We were a party of 8 and were their by 5 and we had to wait 1 hour and 30 minutes kinda nuts. I wish they would get a bigger location for how busy they are but it's definitely a must go! TY Domu for the delicious food!

There are no reservations it is first come first serve, we went on Friday around happy hour time and were told 2-2.5 hours to wait lol but in reality we only waited 1.5 hours and got a drink up stairs at the neighbors. The wings (original sauce)were the star of the show!! Also got the pigs in a blanket which was incredible. I’m not the biggest ramen fan but had to try and it was good! Just not really a ramen girl myself but I can see the hype! Everything was delicious and fresh

I’m not sure it’s worth the wait. I definitely had one of the best ramen I’ve ever had and the wings are decent but they sat us so close to another table it was extremely uncomfortable. The waiter also forgot one of the dishes we ordered. But the price is good.

The first thing I don’t like about Japanese ramen is the taste and smell of pork. I wasn’t expecting such a strong pork flavor because the restaurant is kind of famous, but it was definitely there. I also don’t understand why people were still waiting even though there were empty seats; maybe the servers weren’t able to handle multiple things at the same time.

When you have gone to all the other Domu’s and then come here. Food (WINGS ONLY) still great however servers are way different compared to other Domu’s. The staff makes it way easier to leave, then want to stay and eat with the other Domu the staff does look right through you as you stand there for five minutes, at least. I understand being busy but I also understand common courtesy saying hey I see you. And every Domu is busy waiting time 45 minutes to an hour and 15. Yes their Ramen is worth it however, Bar staff not friendly here.

My family and I came to visit this place. We were very much looking forward to it, as my wife had seen it online and we had read about the Michelin stars. We were excited for the experience—coming from NYC and being new in town, it’s been challenging for us to find or explore restaurants of the same caliber or accessibility that we were used to back in the city. The food did not disappoint. The ramen was delicious, and the wings were delightful. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. However, the reason for my rating lies in a few issues that brought down the overall experience. When I first checked in, I was quoted a wait time of 1 hour and 15 minutes, which I found reasonable given the restaurant’s reputation. I mentioned to the host that we were a party of four plus a baby. When our buzzer finally went off, the hostess told us she hadn’t realized there was a baby with us, and due to this miscommunication, we had to wait an additional 20 minutes for a different table. While this may not seem like a long time, we had driven an hour to get there, so it felt significant from our perspective. I would only recommend this place if you don’t have kids or babies, as the atmosphere seems more suited to an older crowd. Also, I’d advise caution when ordering cocktails. Their menu is quite crafty, but unfortunately, the drinks we received lacked consistency and balance the cocktails were not very good. On a positive note, they were kind enough to offer us a complimentary dessert at the end of the meal. All in all, while the food was good, it wasn’t worth the long

El lugar tiene buen ambiente y se ve muy bien la comida. Sin embargo, es espacio es pequeño y sin reservación la espera es de más de 1hora por lo cual decidimos no esperar

Much better choices in the immediate area. We decided on Domu for our 15th anniversary. We came on the recommendations of our friends and of course, Michelin. We had really high hopes. We arrived around 4:20pm on Saturday, about 40 minutes before they opened and there was already a line forming spanning roughly half way to the road. Parking is really miserable, they share the plaza with a number of other busy businesses and the parking lots and streets are absolutely packed and finding a spot took effort. Despite arriving 40 minutes early, we still ended up on a wait and waited roughly 20-25 minutes to be seated. Interior of the restaurant is well decorated and waiting isn't really an issue as you can explore the plaza so it goes quick. We ordered the Domu Wings and three ramens, the Richie Rich, Tokyo, and Tonkotsu Black. Sadly, outside of the wings and the Richie Rich ramen, the other two bowls were really dissapointing. The kimchi butter wings were really good. Super crunchy breaded Korean fried chicken wings in a delicious sauce. Highly reccommend. The Richie Rich ramen was also very tasty. Outside of the chasu, which was very dry and dissapointing, the other ingredients were cooked properly and the broth was rich and flavorful. The Tokyo Ramen was very salty, which was the stand out flavor of the dish. The chicken thigh was bland and unmemorable. The Tonkotsu, which is my favorite style of ramen that I order everywhere I go that serves it, was really pretty bad. Extremely bland broth, dry and overcooked chasu, and overall highly dissapointing. I was very surprised by Domu. I had very high expectations given their Michilen standing and line out the door. Maybe it was a bad night or we ordered the wrong things. Honestly, if it weren't for the difficult parking and over 1 hour wait, I'd probably give them 3 stars. With the parking and wait, it ended up being a lot of work for very forgettable food. There's much better ramen in Orlando.

Michelin? Must’ve paid for that. I do not recommend DOMU due to the extreme wait times, poor service quality, and noticeably smaller portion sizes. I was excited to bring my family after having a good experience here in the summer… when the food WAS excellent and portions WERE generous. Unfortunately, this visit was completely different. We waited nearly three hours for our tiny portion of meat in our $20 ramen. We didn’t receive the warm towels they used to offer. The service and food just wasn’t up to the same standard as before. I don’t recommend DOMU after this experience.

This is definitely not one of the top restaurants in Orlando. The ramen tasted like it spent 10 years on the shelves of Walmart, The egg smelled like it was the back of their fridge for the last 10 years, and the chicken was overcooked and tasted awful. I guess this is the sad reality of the Orlando food scene and Orlandonians lack of taste. Never coming back to eat overpriced Walmart ramen again

There is a curious irony one encounters at Domu in East End Orlando. You arrive seeking a simple, warming bowl of ramen — yet find yourself drawn into a ritual that emphasizes appearance over substance. The line outside is long and self-important, as though the act of waiting were itself a badge of worthiness. But pretension is not the same as profundity. Parking only deepens the lesson. You circle endlessly, returning to the same crowded corners of the lot, realizing how easily a simple meal becomes a small modern struggle. What should be ease becomes inconvenience, repeated until it loses all meaning. Upon entering, the staff maintain a kind of detachment — not the serene detachment of awareness, but the indifferent sort that signals your presence is merely incidental. There is no warmth, no sense of hospitality, only a mechanical procession of orders and an absence of genuine care. And the ramen? Surprisingly hollow. The broth lacks depth, the flavors lack resonance. One finds far more comfort — and quality — in the humble ramen offered at Publix in Winter Park Village, which is a rather revealing comparison for a place with such acclaim. Most notably, Domu makes no clear mention of the fact that they do not offer to-go orders, a detail one only discovers after navigating the parking, the lines, and the wait. In a world where transparency is simple, this omission feels unnecessary and unkind. In the end, Domu provides a subtle teaching: that hype is often an empty instrument, and true satisfaction arises from simplicity and sincerity rather than spectacle.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. I asked to substitute my protein due to a food allergy, and the owner refused to accommodate the request. When you have a serious allergy, flexibility and understanding are extremely important, and I did not feel that my health concerns were taken seriously. Customer service should include making reasonable efforts to ensure guests feel safe and respected. Unfortunately, this was not the case here, and it made the experience very uncomfortable.

La primera vez que voy a ese lugar estando de vacaciones. Mi hermano reside cerca y siempre compra en DOMU. ordenó unas sopas entre otras cosas y nos sentamos en las mesas afuera que son parte del restaurante. Se acercó una mesera del lugar bien despiadada y sin ninguna empatía nos dijo q nos teníamos q mover de ahí. Le enseñamos que habíamos ordenado y teníamos la evidencia y estando con un menor de 3 años el cual en ese momento estaba comiendo, no le importó!! Aún consumiendo en su lugar tampoco le importo!!! Sin ninguna empatía nos dijo que teníamos que irnos. Fue la humillación más grande y sin entender como ya que se le estaba dejando dinero en su establecimiento osea se compró comida de allí mismo. Y conste, la mesa no estaba reservada estaba bien disponible para clientes y nosotros éramos clientes. Es muy lamentable porq me dijeron que ese lugar era el mejor y toda mi familia iba a comer de su comida. Como empleadas como ella es que los negocios se caen! Está demás decir que nos paramos y nos fuimos y cancelamos toda la orden! JAMÁS IREMOS A DOMU!!! Perdieron varios clientes fieles.
