Great atmosphere with awesome 90s/early 2000s hip hop. Ramen had good spice but lacked any flavor. Eggplant fries were delicious as well as the yuzu lemonade. Rolls tasted fresh. Service was excellent. Reservations recommended.
The ambience of the place is nice, and the old school music was awesome as well. We were seated in a spacious booth with room for our stroller, which was great.
Our server was really nice and friendly (though aside from her and the hostess, no one else looked like they actually wanted to be there, which is a bit of a damper). She was very helpful throughout the meal.
We tried a bit of everything, and the food itself was good, especially the eggplant fries. Both the food and drinks were reasonably priced.
My boyfriend and I decided to try this place because it was close to our hotel and it did not disappoint. The ramen, sushi and mini donuts were soo good! Price point, in my opinion, was a great value for the food quality! Our server, Isaac, was awesome to deal with and super friendly. Finally, the music playing in the restaurant was our type of music (hip-hop) - we loved it so much that Isaac even advised us of the playlist name on Spotify. 100% would recommend for the food, music, and excellent service.
Ramen on a rainy day! Can’t get better than this place. Food tasted great and they had a lunch special which included your choice of ramen (smaller bowl), salad, pickled cucumbers, and rice with protein. I also ordered a side of salmon avocado maki. So delicious! It was packed on a Thursday afternoon! Was a bit noisy. But the food was worth it!
Kid friendly server patient with my 10 year old. Great service. Flavor, texture, and portion size of ramen was spot on. Fried rice was well seasoned and veggies perfectly charred. Spicy tofu bun was tasty and the tofu was crispy and flavorful.
Stopped by this ramen shop because it’s convenient walk from starbucks reserved. We were greeted with energetic host. We got our food fairly quick. The server did a good job explaining dishes specially one of our friend has certain food allergies. The whiskey selection was good with reasonably price. The only surprise was restaurant surcharge which we don’t mind it’s only 3%, we just didn’t know about it or we couldn’t find it in the writing. I think it would be fair if the server mention it when he dropped off the check.
Corner ramen shop with lots of seating. I had the “10 Hr Tonkotsu” ramen, which was excellent. It boasts complex flavor, thanks to the quality and diversity of ingredients (pork was soft, moist, and tender; egg was just right, broth was savory, etc.). It was also crazy fast. I got my food in 3 minutes! Attentive staff, too.
We went in for lunch and it has Great Japanese food we ordered Ramen well portioned and a great hop hop music atmosphere
First time here and definitely not last.
Great ramen!
Service and atmosphere, thank you Abby !
This place was in my radar for a while and finally made it. Why did I wait so long, the food here is absolutely incredible. Went in on a Friday evening and really enjoyed the food, service, and vibe.
They have great menu options with something in there for everyone. We ordered chicken and vegetable gyoza, miso soup, roasted edamame, spicy salmon roll, spicy tuna roll, kimchi & fried chicken ramen, and rose mallow Mocktail . Each of the dishes were fantastic. The food is well prepared and so flavorful. I love how ramen San is accommodating of people's dietary needs. They were able to switch the pork broth to all chicken base for the kimchi and fried chicken ramen. The ramen is a must must try, it's a bowl of delicious goodness.
The service is quick and the place is kid friendly. Overall had a wonderful dining experience and will be a regular here.
