My BF and I were looking for a new ramen spot to try in our neighborhood and came across saiwaii. We were quickly greeted and seated. The server was attentive, and the food came out fast. We shared an order of the croquettes and they were fresh, hot and delicious! I ordered the vegetarian spicy miso ramen with an egg and it was perfect! Can’t wait to visit again sometime soon now that the weather is getting cooler.

We love Saiwaii! Always order the Vegetarian Spicy Garlic Miso Ramen. Consistently comes out amazing every time. Friendly service - definitely recommend!

This is my first time at this restaurant and I have to say the food was delicious. The service was very good from the moment you walk in and get greeted to the moment you leave and are wished a good day. The atmosphere was good, and the staff was very friendly and explained the items on the menu at length for those who don't know what they are. I highly recommend you visit this place. Just be aware that it fills up quickly.
I had the non spicy tonkotsu, and my girlfriend had spicy tonkotsu.

Taste was alright. Nonveg has many options with good starters

Ordered the spicy miso ramen and it was delicious. The mild spice was just enough, anymore and it would’ve been a little too spicy to enjoy. The service was speedy and welcoming, highly recommend.

We ordered the karage donburi and chicken katsu curry and both were divine! The chicken katsu curry was some of the best I’ve had in my life - that is my go to order at Japanese restaurants so I’ve tried many ;) definitely worth a visit if you are in the outer sunset.

Firstly the service is good, everyone there was attentive and nice. The appetizers were really good. We got the mushrooms and agedashi tofu. However the ramen was just ok to me, it was a little too plain.

Nice and cozy place in the sunset. Friendly and fast service. Both our Ramens were spicy as ordered, taste is good but little overpowering. Halfway, we were already full. Baked mussels had some weird creamy taste, would totally skip that.

Must try: Spicy Garlic Tonkotsu. And the Spicy Garlic Crab is out of this world! I maybe exaggerating, but it’s really delicious 😋
However, parking is scarce. The street is surrounded by lots of stores. Sometimes it takes 30mins just to find a parking space. It is worth it though 😅

Really good spicy mala, I ordered the mild and it was enough spiciness for me.
My husband ordered the vegetarian miso. He liked it. I liked mine best but if you are vegetarian you will be happy with the miso.
Friendly staff but expect a long wait if there is an event happening in the park since this is a typical SF restaurant with very little tables.
