Nice to have a ramen option in Alameda. Came at lunchtime on a Monday (yes, some place open on Monday!). The Shoyu ramen didn't disappoint. A hearty bowl with two pieces of pork chasiu, bamboo shoots, nori, egg, fish cakes, lotus roots and a nice serving of ramen in the light soy sauce broth. Good comfort food dish.

I was craving Japanese ramen and decided to try Hiroshi's. It's a cute restaurant with outdoor seating available. I ordered the Tan- tan ramen and it was absolutely delicious! The broth was savory and the ramen was prepared perfectly with the right amount of springy noodles. It was perfect for a cool day.

Unfortunately, the best part of the review is the staff! They were so sweet and welcoming. The place always seems to be a bit empty and was pretty dark inside. We ordered the Chicken Miso Ramen to-go. The containers they pack them in came in handy. The flavor and texture, just wasn't there for me (but my boyfriend said it was decent and did what it needed to do) especially for the price. You can easily walk 5 doors down and get amazing quality from YoJimbo. As we love giving new businesses a try, we will give this place another try when we can eat it at the restaurant.

The vibe of the staff was chill and the food was incredible! The appetizer wings had amazing flavor, and every time my girlfriend and i took a bite of ramen our heads flew back like “mmmm!!”

I knew this place was not owned by a Japanese, so the quality of the broth would not be as good. I gave it a try anyway. I ordered tenten ramen and some water. The waitress said Sapporo. I clarified it again by saying no some water. She ended up bringing a bottle of Sapporo, which was fine.. I drank it. The broth was, I hate to say, below average. The egg and some veggies were cold. The Ramen was alright. Sorry. I wouldn't come again. I'm gonna be real. If a ramen place was not owned by the Japanese, it would not be as good. I can speak from my experience and my high standard on Ramen.

Delicious food and excellent service! There is seating outside and well-behaved dogs allowed outside.
Finally came to this restaurant and had to try their famous pork ramen. I was underwhelmed. The contents were fine, but the broth was nothing to write home about. Not as tasty as I've had at other restaurants. In fact, the highlight was the chicken karagge appetizer.Street parking on Park Street and in the neighborhood is challenging, and it's not a big restaurant. Service was fine, but not very personable. Our server seemed to be distracted or uninspired.I would eat here again because I like ramen.

First time here, just happened upon it looking for a bagel shop. Small and quaint but tables were filthy. We wiped ours down and the wet wipe turned up black. Very slow service. Ramen was bowl of flavorless noodles. On a good note Chicken wings were awesome and the Service was friendly. Expensive compared to other ramen places. Bathroom was not clean. Won't be returning.

The weather keeps giving ramen vibes and I enjoy a good ramen. This place is okay. The menu is somewhat small but it does execute if one wants ramen. Ordered the Hiroshi Tonkotsu Ramen and the Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen. I shared Takoyaki and it was pretty good. High quality and very flavourful as it should be. Thera plenty of vegetarian option. Ramen took a while even though the place had low patronage. Presentation is great. Both broths were okay. I feel that it was very flat and not much stood out. It tasted a bit watery to my taste. Noodles were good and had good consistency. No waiter service. We asked for water and it seemed off to ask and we had no one refill our water. 20, 21, 51A, O AC Transit buses all go through here.

I’ve eaten here a couple of times and this place is consistently good.When you want a classic ramen that has all the fix-ins, a clean broth, and good proteins - this is your place. It’s a chill restaurant and they have a nice variety of starters. The ramen here isn’t special or outstanding, but it’s good classic comfort food.They have seating outside and the prices are what you’d expect for ramen out here in the Bay Area/Alameda area.Come here if you just want a hot, steaming, classic bowl of ramen.
