Reviews for SATO Ramen in Buffalo, NY
Sushi here was great. The ramen was below average. The noodles were very under cooked to our liking and the broth was thin and... had very little flavor. We ordered the Shio Butter Ramen and the Spicy Miso Ramen. Read more
Excellent service, for went right from stove to the table. Cozy and friendly place, very friendly staff. Prices and portions are... good. I had the chicken, it was cooked excellent and was not dry at all. The eggs are amazing. Read more
Hands down the best place to get ramen in Buffalo. It's a small place, first come first serve (no reservations). Wide variety of... ramen, including Tonkotsu and vegetarian. They also have curry bowls, even though I never tried those myself they lookdelicious. Definitely recommend the Tonkotsu ramen (rich, fatty, full of different toppings that bring complexity and texturesuch as bamboo shots, ginger, egg, garlic oil, scallions, sliced pork) and the kara-age chicken (japanese-style deep friedchicken thighs, crispy, juicy and tender).

Lovely little spot on Main! Had seen it on the map a few times, and finally brought my wife and myself to try it. Staff was... friendly and helpful, and the food was very good. Portion size was generous. They can work around allergies if you have any. Read more
Amazing authentic affordable ramen. Great atmosphere and a welcoming staff makes it easy even for a first timer like myself. I... will definitely be returning. Read more
Great Ramen experience. We had the spicy miso Ramen, Buffalo Ramen and Sato Ramen. All were excellent. The broth was very... flavored and tasty. They have an amazing system of ordering were you have to tick the dishes you want on a sheet of menu which Ifeel is better than the traditional way. The Buffalo Ramen broth was excellent because personally I like Buffalo sauce a lot butthe chicken was nicely flavored and the broth had a zeist of Buffalo sauce to it which made it excellent. Also, the servers arevery polite and the service was very fast. I would recommend to check out their waiting time. Read more
Great Japanese ramen experience. The broth and chashu pork were the strong points of the ramen. We tried the Spicy Miso Ramen,... Pork Gyoza, Buffalo Chicken Ramen, and the Iced Matcha Latte. The spicy miso adds a nice flavor kick to a thick, rich pork andchicken broth. My only complaint is the noodles, or ??(men), which aren't any better than a pack of dried noodles from thegrocery store. The pork gyoza were simply amazing. Served with green onions and Sato's soy sauce mix, they were better than anygyoza I've had in the US, and better than some places I've been to in Tokyo. I have mixed feelings about the Buffalo ChickenRamen. It's faithful to the Buffalo chicken wing flavor, but seems to lose all of the flavors of Japanese ramen in the process.That's not to say it isn't good - it is very good - just don't expect the wrong idea. Last, but not least, the Iced Matcha Lattewas fantastic. It was a delicious smack of cinnamon and macha flavors that reminded me of the Matcha KitKats sold inJapan. ?????????? Read more
I love their food so much. I've had ramen three times and then tried an appetizer (some sort of fried chicken with a dipping... sauce?? Literally the best thing I've ever eaten) and the coconut rice pudding for dessert (was to Die For) -- every bite wasOut of This World. Minimal social interaction for placing order, which I enjoyed (they hand you a paper menu and you use apencil to mark the quantities of what you want on the menu). Depending on how busy it is you may have to sit next to otherpeople but I haven't had an issue with it for the three times I've visited so far. It's a small space for seating, ideal for acouple. I wouldn't recommend coming here to eat if you're a party of 5+ people but take-out, absolutely. The price wasdefinitely worth the quality of food in my opinion. Read more
