"Normally I have to venture to the Boston area, Worcester, or Providence to find quality ramen, so I was beyond delighted to hear about Doragon Ramen in the MA suburbs a few months ago! While it took me a while to make it to their spot in Ashland, I’ve traveled back twice within a month since trying my first bowl of ramen!First, I’ll say they have a fantastic tea selection—I can’t say I’ve been to ramen spot in New England with more to choose from! This includes both hot tea and boba tea. I’m slowly but surely making my way through their spicy black teas. They have a Saigon black tea with cardamom that was lovely.For ramen, I’ve had both the Doragon Miso Hellfire (Vegetarian prep) and the always-vegetarian tomato broth. The tomato broth is an interesting twist from traditional ramen — you get a giant Parmesan cheese crisp to snack on and dip into your tomato broth. It’s giving grilled cheese meets ramen! I may be alone in saying this, but the Miso Hellfire wasn’t spicy enough for me. I’d still get it again, but I’d probably add more spice for an extra punch. On both visits I would say ramen noodles themselves could be chewier. I’m not sure if it’s the noodle itself or the cooking time? In any case it’s not going to stop me from going back and trying as many of their vegetarian-friendly bowls as I can!Pro Tip: For each weekend visit we arrived about 45 minutes into when they open. This seems to be the sweet spot for timing! You may have to wait a while if you get there at peak dinner time because the seating is limited."
