Food is delicious! Many Japanese customers, including families, attest to its quality and authenticity. Tried Sapporo beer with my dish; it's light and refreshing.
Ippudo is a good brand. But this place is way worse the ones in Japan. Nissin cup noodle is even better than this!

? Karaka Spicy ramen was 3/5. It tasted like a savory nutty stew (not my favorite). Comparing this ramen to ichiran and Ramen Nagi this ramen reminded me of curry with ramen toppings. Noodles were too soft for my liking.-have to come back and try the other ramen flavors and see if I like them better. Karage not the best. Just ok.?Bun medley was ok.Service nice and fast.Atmosphere: large space, nice and airy, comfortable to sit in big group.

Too overpriced for tiny portion. Also try to trick customer to add egg(not free and 3 dollars in fact) which usually should be

Had the Kataka ramen but it was too oily. My wife had the miso bowl and the flavor was barely noticeable. The karage were really crispy but unfortunately also very fatty. We waited quite some time for service.

I had veggie karakka spicy ramen and it was best veggie ramen I had date. The broth was spicy and tasty and I added a soft boiled egg to top it. The combination worked really well and tasted amazing.
Fast service, fast food. Literally sat down and had my food writhing 5 minutes. Taste was okay. Had the spicy broth was told it was middle spicy. At first you don’t feel it but then it creeps slowly up on you. Would say it is definitely low to mid spicy. The only complaint is price. Coke, ramen with egg, pork bun, and 15% tip came out to $40 for one person. That’s more than SF prices for the same thing. If it is going to the workers and they are paid handsomely then it’s fine.

Love the ramen. Got the spicy karaka and added an egg to it. Ended up ordereing kaedama (extra noodles, to eat up the rest of the broth at the end).

God bless em! We were looking for a special meal at 9pm on Christmas Eve and Ippudo was OPEN and serving up the best ramen we could ever ask for. They were friendly and attentive- the server suggested her favorite- the spicy pork ramen, and it was INCREDIBLE. I would absolutely go back there, and thank you for being open on Christmas Eve. Those employees are angels. ?Vegetarian options: They also have great meat options. :)
