Ramen Restaurants near Berkeley, CA

1 Tsuruya

4.8 Superb 117 Reviews

1926 Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley

“This place is amazing. Far superior to Mensho. No flashy gimmicks. The thick Sapporo noodle is the way to go. Amazing flavor from the broth. The pork chashu was amazing as well. I’m already thinking about my next visit. There aren’t a lot of amazing ramen places in mind. I’ll probably go back next weekend if I’m being completely honest.”

“Cozy ramen spot downtown Berkeley with bar seating and small tables🍜💫 I love Hinodeya and am so glad they have so many locations! Their creamy vegetarian ramen is my favorite. Sometimes it can feel like you’re missing out on good food when you don’t eat meat, but Hinodeya makes sure to not sacrifice any flavor! The service here is always welcoming. This location is best suited for smaller groups, and has limited seating. Great dinner spot if you’re already in walking distance💫”

“The food was very delicious. The noodles perfectly cooked al dente bouncy very long. I ordered a regular and a thick noodles. Both are very good. However, I did find the thick noodles a little bit too thick but still very good for my personal taste but others may disagree . Wood ear mushrooms and scallion pancakes were also great. Portion sizes are large and good for your money.”

“Really enjoyed our first visit! Everything we ordered was solid, with the tempura and wakame salad being our favorites. The tempura was especially good—hot, fresh, and perfectly crispy. We also enjoyed the agedashi tofu, gyoza, and several of the yakitori skewers. We’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. The service was wonderful—so friendly and welcoming—and the restaurant had a lively, fun atmosphere even though it was packed. A great neighborhood spot!”

“I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing quality of the food, the warm and friendly ambiance and the wonderful jazz guitarist. The ramen noodles are made fresh onsite and my vegan ramen was surprisingly exquisite. The owners work there and are genuinely gracious and relaxed. The music wasn’t too loud. The restaurant was full, but it was still easy to hear my table partner.”

• Take-Out

“The food was pretty good, though from what I've seen the prices are pretty high. GBO gave us an item included, but otherwise, even though the food tastes good and has great portions, it's very expensive. Also, for any GBOers who see this, the spicy rice cakes (Tteokbokki) is not portioned for a full meal! Otherwise the dine out area is quite nice! Vegetarian options: There is the miso tofu ramen and maybe one other option, so vegetarians won't be left out!”

10 Mensho Tokyo SF

4.4 Superb 586 Reviews

672 Geary St, San Francisco · 9.7 miles

• Delivery

“Mensho is definitely not worth the wait in my opinion. The line is usually 45min-1hr long. Coupled with the fact that parking is hard to find and the restraunt is tiny and cramped, you are better off going to marufuku or hinodeya. I had the spicy GKO. Compared to the other garlic ramen I have had in ramenagi this was ok. The chasu is belly slices like marufuku and not the spiral rolled belly cross section which I prefer since it falls apart more easily. They don't give you a lot of toppings on the ramen. There is no ajitama or menma in the default. Given that the price point is higher than other sf ramens this doesn't seem like value for money. Clearly other people disagree since there is a line out the door but also the restraunt is tiny so this could be artificial scarcity and the insta hype cycle.”

11 MENSHO

4258 Piedmont Avenue, Oakland · 3.24 miles

“Hidden gem! This place is amazing! Go for the garlic ramen. Their tongue slices are top notch. Unfortunately, there's always a wait... but it's worth it, so, be patient. True service is amazing. Even though they are super busy, they listen to your questions and wait patiently for you We asked for recommendations, they asked questions and offered a detailed reasoned set of suggestions which ended up being amazing.”

The spicy tan tan is my favorite but I’ve tried all of ramen styles they have and all of them are delicious. Their appetizers are amazing! Like the tempura shrimp is out of this world. Come and check it out, make sure you put yourself on the waitlist quickly or even before getting there cuz it gets packed.”

• Take-Out

“Went here for lunch right as they opened. Absolutely amazing for counter serve ramen. It comes in a plastic bowl and you have to eat it with a tiny plastic spoon, but it's like 90-95% as tasty as the full Mensho restaurants in SF and Oakland. If you want lamb in your ramen like me, I recommend getting one of the lamb varieties, rather than adding lamb to the regular ramen as I did (my mistake, can't fault the store for this). It kind of overpowers the other flavors, but was still amazing. I wish you could get beer or sake here, but for lunch ramen, this place can't be beaten.”

“Paloma the host was so kind and even accommodated our stroller with a toddler when she sat us at the restaurant. The server Zay was so knowledgeable of their products and promotions. He was patient with all of our questions. The manager with shoulder length hair absolutely knew the history of the restaurant's locations and even the recent opening in Texas within the past two year. The food was AMAZING!!! We are coming back again!”

“I recommend the Black Garlic Ramen. I tried Kyoto Ramen for the first time today. I was feeling down after dropping my kid off at college a few days ago (I thought I was ready, but I was NOT). I decided I needed to eat and I remembered seeing Kyoto Ramen while in El Cerrito. I am so glad I did. I am always a little nervous when trying a new restaurant, but when I walked in, it smelled good. The place was clean and there was plenty of seating. I ordered my ramen and had my food within 5-6 minutes. The ramen was flavorful, the noodles were firm and substantial. The pork was tender and delicious. The whole thing was Yumm! I would rate this in my top 5 ramen experiences here in the East Bay. If you are in the mood for some tasty ramen, then I suggest you try this place. Especially since winter is coming!”

“I came here after going to Marufuku in walnut creek and having the absolute worst ramen of my life. I had to get that garbage taste out of my mouth. Ramen shop accomplished that mission. The ramen egg was eggcellent. It was fully seasoned with a cured yolk. If you zoom in on the egg you can tell the texture of the white wasn't perfect but I think that is just part of making them in mass quantities for a restaurant. The noodles were very good. Good texture and good snap. The broth was creamy and rich. I ate everything, including the soup. I very much enjoyed that it looks like they took a torch to the chashu to give it a good charr which elevated it to another level. Really made it stand out from other chashu at other ramen shops. Definitely recommend eating here. Some of my favorite ramen in the east bay.”

“Amazing ramen! The beef and eggs are perfectly cooked. The noodle is al dente which makes the texture of the ramen bowl fun to eat. The soup is on the lighter side, compared to the other ramen shops. The beef flavor is definitely there. It is just that not salty and oily. I got the traditional one, which is very good. My most favorite though is my friend's yuzu ramen. The flavor just woke me up with the refreshing yuzu citrusy flavor! Highly recommended if you like ramen but not the heaviness/saltiness you get afterwards. Definitely will come back to try more things.. and get my own yuzu ramen!”
