RUKA Boston Reviews from The Last Year
Amazing ambiance, food and cocktails.
Went for my birthday. First time visiting Boston. Went to a lot of top tier restaurants during this trip and this one was one of the best.
The sushi rolls are by far my favorite thing on the menu.
Truly a foodie's paradise. It's hard to find Peruvian fusion sushi rolls and this place hit the spot. Very cool decor too! Insta-worthy!
If you're reading this and you ate at a two-spot on 7/16
If you're reading this and you ate at a two-spot on 7/16 around 6pm, admired our cheese sticks, and wished you could have shared our Big Fish sundae with us (incredibly delicious) we regret having to hop quickly and wish we could have been friends!! So maybe you're on Yelp?! Fingers crossed! The tea service was outstanding and a great value, sesame noodles cool and crunchy, ambiance lovely and vibrant, rainbow roll delicious, especially the shisho leaf and Asian pear, and the hamachi ceviche was seriously the best I've ever had. The coconut rice was flawless!
Really liked the aesthetic of the place itself.
It's a dim and it's giving mystical. Haha We walked in and the host asked if we had a reservation which we didn't but they were still able to accommodate my 6 person party. I'm guessing by that question that there are times where if you do not have a reservation you'll either be waiting a long time. Moving on to the server it was my first time there and he was very thorough when asked about the menu and the restaurant. The food was delicious, we went there for sushi, they have a list of sushi rolls that they make but they are not your common rolls. Definitely outside the box and delicious. We overall had a good time. A nice place to have a date for sure.
This place has a "tapas" style menu.
I'd say 5 plates for 2 people is a pretty good start, which is what our waiter recommended. The portions and price are good for Boston. I've seen worse. My favorite is the ceviche dish. I'd come back just to order 3 plates of that for myself. Recommend bringing a jacket since it's a little chilly inside. Drinks are alright, service is friendly. Good spot for date night once in a while!
I have been eying this place for such a long time and I'm
I have been eying this place for such a long time and I'm so glad I finally made a reservation! First, the restaurant itself is located in a pretty fun area (right near Chinatown). The interior is funky - there are so many textures and colors and it feels like the kind of place you want to go to when you want to catch up with your friends. Our server was very attentive! We asked for recommendations and he did not steer us wrong. Our favorite was the ceviche, but we also got the tako mechi (the octopus thing), the vat bottom girl sushi roll (or something like that), and I think the Japanese fried chicken. Portion sizes were good! The cherry on top of this sundae was the Big Fish dessert. IT WAS HUGE, but very much worth it. We shared the dessert and I had a hot espresso and it was *chef's kiss* - exactly what I needed. I'll have to come back to try the drinks next time!
Food: Well portions and great flavor combinations.
My favorite was the Japanese fried chicken, just enough crispiness and flavor where it was sweet tangy added with the spicy mayo sauce on the side was just perfect. Each of the sushi presented its own combination, where texture and flavor sat really nice. Oh though some weren't quite my favorite palette, I can appreciate the thought behind trying to fuse something that's more original. The yuzo lobster had a citrus taste to it which can't throw off a bit of the lobster since it's rather aquatic, but it's interesting. The Hawaiian roll comes with a premium soy sauce, which you can't tell the difference between regular, but it adds a perfect touch to what's sweet and then add a pinch of salt Service: We sat at the bar and the service was great, they all made sure we had water filled. They made sure that we had everything we needed for our food. It's rather calm service Ambiance: It's a great place to have a birthday or hang out during the night. They don't have any TVs so you can't really watch the game but you can appreciate the decorum that's going on around this Asian fusion restaurant. It's rather spacious and there's definitely plenty of seats to dine in when its not busy Location accommodation: right near Boston commons, it's rather walkable near other restaurants, restaurants and businesses. On the outside it's really pretty but walking around certain parts. The streets can be a little tough as the roads weren't build for big vehicles around, but people still try to squeeze in
Food, drinks, everything was soooooo good.
I'm a vegetarian and found plenty of delicious options full of flavor. Definitely recommend.
We visited Ruka on Saturday.
We had reservations but decided to sit at the bar. The bar is always the best IMO We had a wonderful bartender/server named Lucas. he knew the menu inside and out. My boyfriend and I had lots of questions about the food, but Lucas never seemed annoyed by this. He has only worked for the restaurant for three months, but it seemed like he had been there for a lot longer, just with the professional, warm and engaging way he communicated with both customers and co-workers alike The cocktails and food were really excellent. Serving sizes are tapas and meant to be shared. Prices are pretty reasonable for Boston. We'll be back!
RUKA is so cool.
The vibe is fantastic but the food is what really steals the show. The fried chicken was spectacular. The ceviche was amazing. All 4 of the rolls we tried were outstanding.
what a crappy service
actually we are here at the Godfrey (#408, 409). We are a family with 3 Kids (17,12,4). Today was a rainy day, so we decided to eat in the hotel restaurant. So we sent our eldest daughter to ask for gluten-free options and to do a reservation at the restaurant. The answer was gf is possible and we don´t need a reservation. 1,5 hours later we arrived at the restaurant but they had no table for us. A family with 3 kids and a coeliac disease. The service was: we can give you a recommendation you can go to... what a crappy service for this nice hotel! Sending a family out in the rain, not searching for a solution, just out with them, no trouble, no work! The bored guy at the reception also had no idea of customers service. Thank you for nothing! We won´t come back!
Have never been to an Asian-Peruvian fusion place so was
Have never been to an Asian-Peruvian fusion place so was excited for some bold/different flavors - unfortunately, the dishes were largely just kind of modern Japanese which was fine and decent, just not the level we were expecting.
Did my research with a bunch of other yelp reviews and so
Did my research with a bunch of other yelp reviews and so glad I did!! All these dishes are a must try! Lovedddd the Japanese fried chicken and ceviche. Each of the dishes we got were so unique and different in flavor! Not necessarily dishes that pair well together, but are a great mix of flavor loved getting different bites of them every time. We loved our waiter! Sad we didn't get his name (but he's from NJ and has been serving for about a year at the restaurant)! Huge shoutout to him, even brought out our dessert in this crazy bowl set up! Made our night, excited to come back again and would want to try out their cocktails too! Great spot for date night or dinner catch up with friends.

It's a really trendy restaurant; apparently this is an Asian Peruvian fusion restaurant, but outside of the chicha drink, the food seems more Asian. However, the food still is pretty great. I sat at the bar, and the service was nice. I ordered the lychee cocktail, spicy tuna roll, the ceviche, and the white black thunder. Everything was pretty good - outside of the white black thunder - nothing stood out. But it's a solid place to eat at
The ambience was cute and lively.
Our server was also friendly, but be careful since they will ask "still or sparkling water" so make sure you ask for tap unless you want to be charged $8 for some water... In terms of the food, I think you will be wow-ed if you don't go in with very high expectations. The yakitori bar shrooms were fresh and tasty, and my favorite plate from the night. I don't know why the sesame noodles are named that, because it tasted like chilled peanut noodles with an annoying onion crunch. The wok choy did not deliver the "ginger-lime" flavor. Instead, it was very salty like soy sauce + oyster sauce and did not mix well with the dollops of rocoto cream. Overall slightly disappointed with the food, but I do want come back here to try their makimoni items and their pork yakisoba.
Nice ambiance and pretty dishes, but the pros stop there.
We were excited for the Asian-Peruvian fusion aspect, but the dishes seemed to be largely Asian with a tiny Peruvian tweak in the form of a condiment or topping. The service was also slow and rather unhelpful with answering questions about the menu--I'd expect much better at this price point. That was disappointing, but the food itself was notably poor as well. Out of the 6 dishes out table ordered, we only liked one (Sichuan Zoodle Bowl). For a fusion restobar, the flavors were not very complex, interesting, or well thought out. For example, my pork yakisoba was oversauced and leaned far too sweet and ketchupy, with no savory, spicy, or sour notes to balance it out. It struck me as the type of dish I'd make from an instant packet at home on a lazy day--technically yakisoba, but with no professional cooking finesse. Additionally, it's listed as having braised pork (kakuni) on top, but instead had very thin crispy slices of what was essentially bacon. Overall the experience was middling at best. You can easily get the same food or far better for less money and larger quantities.
Set a whole new standard for a good restaurant! Our waiter,
Set a whole new standard for a good restaurant! Our waiter, Chris, was gold and had wonderful recommendations. Place itself was super cool, had lots of interesting architecture and designs. Food was great, we couldn't stop ordering.
Everything was great! The cocktails and food are so unique
Everything was great! The cocktails and food are so unique and none of them miss. Frankie our waiter was a blast.
Second time here and the second time was just as good as
Second time here and the second time was just as good as the first! We walked in on a busy Saturday night and were told it would be an hour and 15 min wait to sit at the bar (no tables were available for the night). Remembering how amazing the drinks and food were the first time, I told my husband it'll be worth the wait. By the grace of baby Jesus two spots appeared at the bar after waiting just 20 min!!! The bartenders are super friendly, our food (Mongolian beef, crab cali, rock shrimp, ruka rainbow, wasabi yucca puff thingy) and drinks (Gojira and Ají Alegre) were all incredibly tasty. Can't wait to return.
Loved the ambience.
The waiter wasn't super friendly but I don't need a friend. He was fast attentive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
The food combinations were out of this world.
We have the puff yucca, fried octopus and a few different tapas plates and each were better then the other. The music was also A+, it definitely gave it a very cool and modern vibe. Definitely recommend it to anyone trying to eat something different.
Bryce was the absolute best waiter we have had in so long
Bryce was the absolute best waiter we have had in so long and I'm so glad I trusted my boyfriend's birthday in his hands. He single-handedly seems to manage half of the entire restaurant and we literally ordered nothing but his recommendations and fell in love with each and every dish that was so unique. I wish I could give Bryce six instead of just five stars because he broke the scale, worked so effortlessly, was incredibly welcoming, and understood every ingredient and recommended impeccable desserts. He remembered the perfect time to refill our waters and is an amazing representative of this restaurant. We wondered if we should start a birthday tradition here because of Bryce. He deserves a raise!
Eat here!
Every single bite of food here was delicious! We ordered a variety of items ceviche, zucchini noodles, cheese sticks, mushrooms, squid, chicken fried rice and Mongolian beef. All incredibly good. The cheese sticks were a wonder, I could have eaten a huge bowl of just the ceviche and bite after bite we loved it all. The cocktails are inventive and I can heartily recommend the Peruvian inspired sangria. Our waiter was excellent providing suggestions and was around when we needed her. Look forward to our next visit to Boston and dining here!
Pleasantly surprised
Came in a little late on our flight from San Francisco and were staying at the Godfrey. So happy we planed to eat at RUKA. We only chose it for convenience. Wow, were we surprised. The food was excellent.
Yummy
Excellent! I sat at the bar and service was friendly and efficient and helpful. Delicious cocktails and food menu is inventive. Small dishes that are a great fusion. Bartenders provide excellent suggestions on favorite items. Definitely a return for me.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
