“Previously only tried YGF Malatang, but a friend put me on Mala Town in the same plaza. Love the soup and options for your malatang. Personal favorite is the cheese filled tofu and wide hot pot noodles. No weight limit like YGF, just $15.99/lb. Have come a lot after my first time.“

“This place is a hidden gem. The food is delicious and they have such friendly staff.
I always get the vegan ramen with regular noodles and add an egg (I know eggs aren’t vegan, I’m vegetarian but love the vegan broth) totally recommend this place!“

“Been to rice junkie multiple times for lunch as well as for dinner. The service is always quick and fast however I do not like the new digital menu that they have especially if you’re on the tables close to the wall.
Their selection of sauces is always very interesting and I’m yet to try them all.
The ambience is somewhere in between a fancy restaurant and a fast casual.
Definitely get their corn and cheese combination either with the chicken or with the pork. Lunch for two with a drink and appetizer was $30 per person.
Parking: Massive parking lot with plenty of spots“

“Tiny place tucked into a strip mall. The ramen was pretty good, flavor-wise, but I'd stay away from the "spicy" option as it was too spicy for 3/4 of our group.
The roasted garlic was pretty potent.
The soft-boiled egg was a little overdone (IMO) and was served cold.“

“The menma was dressed with fried garlic and chili oil and went very well with beer. I ordered the Creamy Ramen (vegi) as a novelty, and it was very delicious with the flavor of the soy milk and dashi stock. The fried kale was flavorful and had no bitterness.“

“Delicious, adorable cheesy goodness! There are little kiosks if you want to order from a screen (very convenient, no waiting in line). However, both times I made customizations to get the cheesy bacon fries without bacon (I'm vegetarian) on the screen, they still put bacon on. I had to get a new cheesy fries dish which was fine, but they forgot about it so 20 min later I asked if they had my new baconless fries and they scrambled to make it. They were very nice and accommodating. The wait was a little inconvenient.“

“Was expecting a long wait during weekday lunch but maybe I went on a good day! No wait.
Started with gyoza which were very yummy, and I recommend them. Then tonkatsu broth ramen. Love that it comes with the egg and you don’t need to order separately. I feel the soup could have been just a little hotter but it certainly tasted good.
Service was good; they checked up on us and gave water refill.
Quite enjoyed it and will be back.“

“One of my favorite marketplaces in San Jose. The classic Tonkotsu ramen is what I order most times. The bowl of noodles comes out quick. It can certainly get crowded at peak times so be prepared to wait in line. The market itself has a ton of unique things including Japanese confections that aren’t readily available in the US.“

“2/24/2025
Ramen Izakaya Yu-Gen
152 Castro St
Mountain View, CA 94041
I went there for a solo lunch on a Monday around 12:30. There was ample parking in the city free parking structure behind the restaurant. The layout is long and narrow with a contemporary chair and table setup. There is some bar seating at the front, which I chose.
I ordered the Pork Cutlet Curry at the spicy level. My food was brought to me shortly and consisted of a gravy boat of curry sauce, a green salad topped with macaroni salad and corn, pickles, rice and the sliced breaded pork (tonkatsu). The curry sauce was not spicy but there was a condiment dish with cayenne pepper which I dumped in the sauce to take it to the level I wanted. The cutlet was thick and uniform in thickness with a golden brown crispy coating. It was moist and a little chewy but okay by me.
Flavors were good, service was fast and attentive. A good value and repeatable for the curry.

“Good enough size for lunch (at least, for me). Soup is tasty and noodles are served just in a right manner. (I like a bit stiff one).“

“I came here to treat my brother for lunch for fixing our mom’s door lock, and I had a craving for sushi. The sushi at Mimi’s Kitchen was very tasty and the chef laid out our entire order very decoratively on a cute black stone platter, I give them a “10” for artistry! The miso soup was tasty as well. The menu is only Prices were decent; I’ve eaten at places where the sushi rolls were much higher in price. Try out this place, it doesn’t disappoint. The outdoor mall has a very large CVS, you get off of Snell from Blossom Hill Road, and drive into the mall. The restaurant is not visible off the street, it’s next to a hair salon in an inside corner, but keep looking for the restaurant, and you’ll find it. I plan to come back to check out the other dishes that are served in the stone pots on another visit!
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space to wheel around in a wheelchair.“

“Great food, amazing service, but this place has stools with no back instead of proper chairs. I think it is common across HiroNori locations. Not a bad thing, but might get uncomfortable for some.
Vegetarian options: They have a vegan ramen“

“We had fish pot noodle, steam soup dumplings, pan fried soup dumplings, and chili oil wonton. These are very delicious. We also ordered a stir fried broccoli chicken which is a bummer. Instead of sliced chicken breast like in the menu picture, it’s fried chicken chunks like in sweet and sour chicken. It’s also very oil and salty. Other than that dish, the rest are really good!!“

“We were initially thrilled about the variety of ramen options, but our excitement turned into disappointment when we realized that all ramen choices featured pork broth. Unfortunately, there were no pure vegetarian, vegan, or chicken alternatives. As a result, we opted for bento box selections, specifically the Chicken Karaage Curry and BBQ Chicken. Arriving around 9 pm on a weekday, we found that noodles were already unavailable, so we had to settle for rice only. Despite this, we enjoyed the well-presented and flavorful BBQ Chicken more than the Karaage Chicken, although the curry portion wasn't sufficient for all four chicken pieces. Overall, it was a satisfying meal, but we wished for more diverse options, especially in the ramen selection.“

“Hidden ramen gem in South Bay! Better than the ramen places on Castro street in Mountain View. My friend and I both ordered the Miso Ramen (~$18.50 each before tax) which were large portions that came with very tasty and tender large slices of pork. The broth and noodles were also flavorful without being too salty.
Service was fast.
Good amount of indoor seating, casual ambience.“

“Clean restaurant friendly servers convenient ordering monitors at each table, which makes it easy to know exactly what you're ordering and how much the bill will be. Sushi is good. Tables are kinda small if you have more than two or three people, not leaving much room after all the different sushi dishes are served to you. But overall, this is a nice, comfortable sushi place.“

“Warning: Low Sodium Option is ava. But with all the side condiments together still causes the entire ramen bowl To be overly Salty. Ruined the flavor.“
