I’m just a dude. I wanted some ramen so I come here and get the beef shank ramen with fried tempura.
Both were very good, the tempura was such a good crispy crunch and had a nice inside as well. The ramen was pretty good, broth, noodles and meat were all good quality. And not super oily which I like.
The only place I want to give a honest criticism is with the QR code thing. I can kind of understand it because the menu was big when I looked on the phone, but still it was kind of confusing.
The place and people working there are very nice, a comfortable setting.
All and all, would definitely come back.

Noodle & Doodles is a new ramen shop located in the heart of Needham’s town center, owned by the same people as Wen’s Yunnan Noodle Shop on Newbury Street.
We ordered it online, so the food was already ready when we got there. The place itself is styled nicely and is spacious with many seating options.
As for the food, we though it was just alright. It is good and has a good taste, though the noodles aren’t like other Japanese ramen noodles we got at other ramen shops. There is a good amount of toppings, and the soup had a good flavor, but overall it was just an alright meal.

Good food and service but required us to scan a QR code instead of looking at menus which made ordering a bit tricky. Ramen was pretty good but not very rich.
The place itself is adorable inside, with a big mural of mount Fuji next to a skyline and pagoda, some cute little hanging flags and more intricate decor all around to look at. It’s very well lit and seating is comfortable.
Service was attentive and friendly. Will definitely return.

A wonderful restaurant for a quick meal! It’s super easy to order as you simply scan the QR code at each table and the food comes out quite quickly. The waiting staff are very nice and my whole experience was pleasant. The food itself was well cooked and seasoned and everything tasted great! The menu mostly features ramen and don but the appetizers are great as well.

I’d rate six stars if possible. The food is soooo good. I’m picky about my pork belly, and this was the real deal. The noodles were perfectly chewy and the egg was absolutely the ideal jammy texture. I think I blacked out and woke up looking at the bottom of my ramen bowl.
Atmosphere is fun, not too loud when we went. Decor is fun. The waitress was lovely. The curried fish ball app was really good, nicely balanced and we mixed in the curry paste at the end of the bowl of ramen for an extra treat.

Solid ramen. Chashu Donburi was good with good char on the meat. Tonkotsu was rich and meat was delicious. Loved the bento box dipping noodles as well!

Came in on Saturday night expecting a quick meal from the new restaurant. We left with a completely outstanding experience. Had great service and even better food, the ramen is amazing and is served less than 5 minutes after ordering. Food is hot, fresh and flavorful. Service is amazing, the single server managed to find time for every table with complete calmness. Overall one of the best restaurants I have even been to. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to have dinner out in Needham!

The food was outstanding and the service was excellent. I had shrimp tempura that was served hot and crispy and gyoza that was freshly prepared and tasty. I am looking forward to going back for the noodle dishes.

Following the stereotype that teenagers don’t get as good of service as adults, I was quite pleasantly surprised. The waiter was incredibly nice to me and the group of four other teenage boys, which was surprising given the stereotype. The food came out in minutes, and was delicious. Would recommend, yum yum yum.
