A new option for Japanese fare is on its way to East Boston.
According to an article from Caught in Eastie and an earlier post from the East Boston Times-Free Press, Koro Ramen + Sushi is opening in the Jeffries Point area, with the address indicating that it is moving into the space on Sumner Street that had been home to Mehak. The East Boston Times-Free Press article mentions that Raffaele Scalzi (Pazza on Porter, Next Door Speakeasy and Raw Bar) is behind the place and Caught in Eastie says that Chef Harold (who brings "16 years of experience in sushi restaurants, a personal chef, and cooking classes") is also involved.
The address for Koro Ramen + Sushi is 329 Sumner Street, East Boston, MA, 02128. Its Instagram page can be found at https://www.instagram.com/eatkoro/ while its website is at https://www.eatkoro.com/
[May 19 update: According to its social media, Koro Sushi + Ramen is now open.]
