Little Big Diner

This little restaurant is cooking some amazing food! There is limited seating so be prepared to wait. They text you when your table is ready, allowing you to walk around their town center while you wait. I found the service friendly and fast. I enjoyed their Chef’s Ultra Ramen and the Crunchy Cabbage Salad. They offer draft beer, wine, sake and cocktails. Can’t wait to try some of their other menu items. Definitely my new favorite ramen spot!

Wow that was top notch ramen. Fantastic service by their wait staff. I felt very welcome there. I will be returning.

Someone recommended this place so I tried it out and it was hands down one of The better ramen places in the nearby area highly recommend. Also their green tea is so tasty

Come meet Jill and Marie, wonderful staff who work with fun and always take an excellent care of the guests. Food is absolutely delicious, fresh and consistent. Simple menu makes it easy to choose if you are in a time crunch. Usually, the place is full during lunch, but service is quick so it's worth waiting. Great for social or clients meetings.

They serve Trillium's beer on draft here! That's amazing that I could get good beer with this fantastic ramen. They give me free ribs which is really nice of them. Highly recommend this place.

Little Big Diner - what a great spot. It’s right in Newton center so you can park in the municipal lot across the street. It’s best to get here early as it’s a small and unique little restaurant. We had a great seat at the bar which viewed directly into the kitchen so we could see the chefs cooking. The staff was extremely nice and even treated us to a house burger which was so good. My ramen was amazing from the noodles to the broth. The chicken thigh was particularly pleasant. Overall we had an excellent lunch here and will 100% be back again. Great spot.

Tiny little hole in the wall with really friendly staff and delicious food. Little bit of a wait as the whole party has to be there to be seated, but well worth it.

Really enjoyed this spot. Smaller place, kitchen right there and food prepared quick and fresh. Ramen spot with extra options. They cook with passion. We will be back !

I told my friends about this restaurant with my warmest recommendations. I visit this place often. I get very good feedback from my friends. The meals are fantastic and the crew is efficient and cooperative. Every time we visit this place we pass a pleasing evening. warmly recommended.

Had the Spicy Tan Tan per the server's recommendation. Super solid, flavorful broth, tasty pork. Decent beer choices for a small place, and a nice vibe in the restaurant. Everyone was super friendly and attentive, we will definitely be back.

Favorite ramen in the Boston area! The place is tiny and they don’t accept reservations which means that most of the time you have to wait for a while to be seated but it’s surely worth it. They also have a great beer selection on rotation.

Very well done modern Asian food in a tiny space. Ramen is so rich it is almost a stew. Great poke bowl. Trillium on tap! Probably going to have to wait at peak lunch/dinner time.

Very saturated taste. Heavy soup, non traditional ramen but tasty. Have to wait for table since place is small. You can ask for extra spicy since their spicy really isn't spicy. Charsiu is the star here. Chicken and spicy ground pork is lackluster so don't need to order the ultra if you wanted a lot of meat, order extra charsiu.

This places is very busy at lunch time and very efficient at taking your name and calling you when tables are finishing up to hear back to lunch- I appreciated that. It took about 25 mins to get our table as there are only 5 tables (one double) and then 2 seated bar areas. The space is small and tight but that's ok. This is a really good spot for any Ramen junkie in close proximity. I normally hit Cambridge, but I came with 3 friends and we all had a really nice lunch.The Mano salad was delicious and the chicken ramen was SO good. I also added a side of the grilled corn, hot sauce and egg to my order so by the time I was all done perfecting my ramen it was over $17 which I think is a bit steep.Beers are $9 and the ramen is around $10 before you add anything.However, I will come back for sure and this place would get 5 stars if the price was a little bit better.
