10/10 highly recommend this spot for authentic Ramen and Pork Bao buns. Very friendly service and no waiting to be seated. Everything was hot, fresh and delicious

Delicious food, generous portions, will definitely be going again. I got the tonkatsu, my mum got the spicy Korean bowl. Next time I really want to try the Vietnamese beef pho.

First time going there tonight. It was delicious. The owner/one of the cooks (not sure which roll he had) came out and explained what the different dinners and specials were. All sounded good. And the one I picked was pretty darn amazing. Everyone who worked there were very pleasant!

This is by far the best ramen restaurant we’ve been to! We come every time we are in VT and the ramen is always delicious! The owners are super kind and helpful. We cannot wait to go back!

I wouldn’t consider myself a ramen expert but I know good food when I taste it and this ramen is outstanding. From the broth to the noodles and toppings, nothing disappoints. We’ve already gone twice this week! Price range I selected is for 2 people but ramen is between $12.95-14.95 per bowl.

So dissapointed. The first couple times we got chicken pho it was amazing and so flavorful This time there was no spice when I ordered it very spicy with extra hoiseen. The broth was unbelievably bland. The meat wasn’t dropped in the broth and cooked in the bone broth, it was chunks chopped up. It had cabbage, squash, cucumber etc. There wasn’t even enough broth to eat it as soup. (See picture, I tried one bite) it just wasn’t pho. I used to prefer their pho to Capital Pho in Montpelier but it seems things have changed.

finally had the chance to visit Si Aku Ramen after hearing rave reviews from several friends and I have to say, it absolutely lived up to the hype! From the moment I walked in, I could tell this place was special. It’s a cozy, family-owned restaurant with a warm and welcoming vibe that makes you feel like you’re stepping into someone’s home for a comforting meal.
I ordered the Sensei Chicken Special, and it was incredible. The broth was rich and flavorful, the chicken was tender and perfectly seasoned, and the veggies and egg brought everything together beautifully. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and prepared with care.
The service was exceptional friendly, attentive, and you could sense the pride they take in both their food and hospitality. The staff made sure everything was just right, and even offered great recommendations for first-timers.
The ambiance is chill and inviting, with a clean, minimalist aesthetic and a few personal touches that reflect the family’s story and culture. It’s the kind of place you will want to come back to often, whether you’re dining solo or with friends.
If you’re a ramen lover or even if you’re just ramen-curious, Si Aku Ramen is a must-visit. I am already planning my next trip!

One of our favorite restaurants in Barre. Authentic cuisine served with care and attention to detail. Every dish has exceeded our expectations and we always have leftovers to enjoy later. Hours are somewhat limited so make plans in advance.
