If you want to eat ramen: My experience is from a Friday evening. I arrived to the place around 5:20 pm. Finding parking took me about 15 min (and I felt kind of lucky due to I had to follow a customer to their spot after they were done). There was a line to the hostess that took me about to 20 min to get to the front. When I finally got the front I found out there was wait of 2 hours (keep in mind we were a party of 2). We were finally seated at 7:45pm, the waitress was pretty good. we gave her our order by the first 7 min, and the food took 20 min to get served. Therefore, from getting to the restaurant to have your food takes a little less than 3 hours. The food is pretty good, but there is places as good as this 15-20 min away from this place. The restaurant has a very small area that is completely packed of how many people are waiting in the bar area or standing, the inside dine in is pretty small and that’s why the wait is so long ( in my opinion a marketing strategy). Overall great food! not worth the wait tho 🙁

What more to say 5 out of 5 stars. The wait time to get a table can be a little off putting sometimes but totally worth it. We tried appetizers and dinner and dessert. We were thrilled with everything that came to the table and everything that we got served.Top to bottom this place is a really well-rounded place and fresh food in a timely manner. This will definitely be one of our regular spots.

In my opinion, this place deserves the hype! The food, the atmosphere, the experience are all amazing and DOMU definitely deserves the praise. Starting with the ramen, the broth, meat, and noodles are all delicious and very flavorful. There are also many appetizers that deserve praise, such as the chicken wings, the cheezus, and the tako. On top of that they have a delicious Thai tea and some really great soft serve for dessert! We love DOMU!

Much better choices in the immediate area. We decided on Domu for our 15th anniversary. We came on the recommendations of our friends and of course, Michelin.

We had really high hopes. We arrived around 4:20pm on Saturday, about 40 minutes before they opened and there was already a line forming spanning roughly half way to the road. Parking is really miserable, they share the plaza with a number of other busy businesses and the parking lots and streets are absolutely packed and finding a spot took effort.

Despite arriving 40 minutes early, we still ended up on a wait and waited roughly 20-25 minutes to be seated. Interior of the restaurant is well decorated and waiting isn't really an issue as you can explore the plaza so it goes quick.

We ordered the Domu Wings and three ramens, the Richie Rich, Tokyo, and Tonkotsu  Black. Sadly, outside of the wings and the Richie Rich ramen, the other two bowls were really dissapointing.

The kimchi butter wings were really good. Super crunchy breaded Korean fried chicken wings in a delicious sauce. Highly reccommend. The Richie Rich ramen was also very tasty. Outside of the chasu, which was very dry and dissapointing, the other ingredients were cooked properly and the broth was rich and flavorful.

The Tokyo Ramen was very salty, which was the stand out flavor of the dish. The chicken thigh was bland and unmemorable. The Tonkotsu, which is my favorite style of ramen that I order everywhere I go that serves it, was really pretty bad.  Extremely bland broth, dry and overcooked chasu, and overall highly dissapointing.

I was very surprised by Domu. I had very high expectations given their Michilen standing and line out the door. Maybe it was a bad night or we ordered the wrong things. Honestly, if it weren't for the difficult parking and over 1 hour wait, I'd probably give them 3 stars. With the parking and wait, it ended up being a lot of work for very forgettable food. There's much better ramen in Orlando.

The food tasted great. Although the chashu was a bit cold, the portion was perfect size and well-balanced.
Service could improve significantly. We waited 2 hours to be seated, which is expected due to the high demand, but then the food took so long to get to our tabl, they also handed the drink to the wrong person at our table, a person who already had a drink.
Some more attention would be appreciated for a 3 times michelin restaurant.
