Afuri Ramen Dumpling - Portland

Everything was delicious! I had trembling, a pig dog, and the Yuzu Limadade. my partner had a bowl and two kinds of knödeln. highly recommended if they love Japanese food. it's expensive, but a fun place for a date night!

Not sure how thier rating isn't higher. My guess is during rush people get impatient. The rum drink is one of the most refreshing liquor drinks I've ever had. And the ramen, oh the ramen. Got the tonkatsu, so damn good, and the buns are amazing. Always going to come back.

The food was great. Only 4 stars because of their ordering system. Since the pandemic I 've used numerous versions of phone based ordering. Theirs did not work well at all. We started by seating ourselves and ordered some beverages while we looked at the rest of the menu. The app said the order was placed and I pressed order more . A long time passed with no beverages so we thought maybe they would come with the food order that we placed about 10 minutes after the drink order. After about 15 more minutes the food arrived, still no drinks, so we asked about it. They checked and said the order never went through. I showed them the order on my phone and they brought them. Slightly annoying but in the end, it was fine. It would have been avoided if their servers came around to check on people, like traditional service. When we were done and closing the tab, the app added a mandatory 15% tip which you cannot alter, and then a suggested 25% tip on top of that. If I hadn 't noticed, I would have left a $19 tip on a $49 bill. I am always a generous tipper, but considering their servers act more like food deliverers and never came back to check on us, I think 40% is excessive. Again, the food was great and the service was fine for what it was, but their ordering system tarnished the experience a lot.

Wow the best Ramen in Portland/Vancouver!! They make everything in house from scratch. So the food tastes so fresh and full of flavour! Ramen hit the spot, the steamed dumplings were out of this world and the steamed buns were yum too! You won’t regret eating here. The ambience is nice too. There seems to be limited seating, so I would suggest going early. But the food came out so quick so there’s a fast move along. 100% recommended

Our first visit here. The ramen was delicious! The gyozas were alright. It was a different experience ordering everything on a screen but I enjoyed making my mea exactly how I liked it. It’s kind of seat yourself, open seating but they only allowed so many people to be seated. Nice staff and would come again.
