Ramen Restaurants near Daly City, CA

“Gotta try their broth! The best in the Bay Area.“

“We decided to give this place a try since we were nearby. Upon arrival it was packed and we wrote down our name on the waitlist, time flew by quick and we were seated. They offer much more than ramen and the food comes out pretty quick. Service was great and I’ll definitely be back!

Vegetarian options: Non-meat options available

Parking: Parking throughout the area

Wheelchair accessibility: Light pull door for easy wheelchair access“

“They have great sushi! If that's what you're after, I highly recommend this place. We went for their ramen this last visit. Their broth is too salty. I got the miso broth. My teen got the chicken broth. Both were so salty we couldn't finish. We added chicken, but they gave us fire grilled chicken, which didn't really go with the ramen. I would go back, not skip the ramen.“

“The Katsu Curry was so good, so I literally threw up 🤦 I am on semaglutide and should not have eaten so much, but I couldn't help 😍😍😍😍🔥🔥

Haven't been so exited with "simple" food in years. Highly recommend! Perhaps, not so simple ))“

“Mensho Tokyo SF truly lives up to its reputation and Michelin Star status. While we waited in line, it was interesting to see that most patrons were first-timers, creating a sense of shared anticipation.

One standout feature was their selection of unique Japanese beers, which offered a refreshing change from the usual options. The ramen itself was exceptional; the noodles had the perfect firmness, while the broth struck an ideal balance—not too overpowering but incredibly flavorful. Each bite was a delightful experience, showcasing a harmonious blend of tastes and textures.

I wholeheartedly recommend Mensho Tokyo SF to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience. I can’t wait to share this gem with my friends in the future!“

“Got the chicken tantanmen and the spicy pork and both were 10/10. I wasn’t even hungry—more, I-could-eat level hunger—and I downed my ramen in less than 10. I couldn’t stop eating it it was so good. Partner is Mexican so I’m use to eating spicy. 7 is a comfortable spicy but the souper spicy side is def spicy, so I recommend getting that if you want to enjoy ramen with a challenging spice.

Still can’t get over how good both ramens were.“

“One of the best & true Japanese ramen joint you can find in San Francisco - hands down! I love the details they thought of into the making of every dishes that they served in front for you. Most of the dishes they made are often tied back to a story / reminder of other dishes that takes you back to the joy of home cooked meals. I also love Yoko & Clint - they’re so humble and such lovely duo, it’s always great to catch up with them even if it’s for a short period of time! I know it’s hard to find reservation here but keep trying! Definitely worth the visit!“

“This place is delicious, I got the pork chasu rice bowl and the gyoza, also tried some of the dry noodles everything was great, the service was super quick and the atmosphere is very nice and upscale

I will definitely be coming back here!

Went on a Friday and it was super busy so I’d recommend making reservations especially if you have a bit of a larger party“

“4.4/5
soup was really good, and the spice complements well with the soup
the pork was a bit dry, and a bit flavorless
The noodles have a good bite, but they look white, as if no eggs are added? But it’s still delicious!
I didn’t expect such a good Ramen outside of asia“

“My reason for no dinner tonight; I had a late lunch To Go, today 2:45 pm, Torraku-Ramen on De Haro, Chicken Katsu Don, Tempura and Edamame- All So Yummy!“

“First time visit! Love the bone marrow so much and also the broth of soup is so delicious. Is unusual to find ramen with beef, but it is actually really good. The only thing I think should be improve is the cleanliness of the restaurant. I notice there’s a lot of dust on the wall. It really should be cleaned.“

“Amazing 🤩 Great service and tasty food“

“Love the energy, love the food, love the staff!! I absolutely enjoyed the whole experience.
The restaurant is cozy and comfortable with great Ramen and awesome people!
10 out 10 experience.
5 stars all the way! ❤️

Parking: If you come after 6pm, it's free street parking. Depending on the day of the week will depend on how easily it will be to find a space to park.
I parked 3 blocks away and walked here.
Still worth it!“

“Excellent ramen restaurant! Probably one of the best in the Bay Area in my opinion. Food and service are fantastic! Yuri and Ryota were both kind, considerate, quick, and caring to make our dinner a wonderful experience. Food is delicious and quick.

Highly recommend!

I wish it were closer to San Jose!

Parking can be a bit tight sometimes, but not terrible.

Tip: if eating with kids, keep them away from the ordering screen so they don't accidentally order items ?

Kid-friendliness: Servers are wonderful with kids. Kind and helpful. Appropriate utensils and serving dishes for kids“

“Delicious! You will not be disappointed.“

“Amazing 🤩 Great service and tasty food“

“Besides the great Ramen Tan tan, make sure you get the fried chicken, Karage, only in japan i had it so good, the best in SF, a real japanese restaurant!!!“

“Service was good (not great), and our server was very friendly. I have zero complaints. The food, though, was almost universally... not hot. Flavors were good, maybe even great, but seemed like they either needed a few more minutes of heating or should have been fried at a slightly higher temperature. Another thing that was weird was the kitchen was oddly loud. Like the chef in there was making it a point to make sure people knew activity was going on in there.“

“New recipes with the most amazing, home-made, wide noodles made our first inside visit in over a year a culinary celebration. And, as always, the staff is top-notch. Highly recommended!“

“Good ramen is easy to find. Great ramen is harder. And finding excellent ramen at reasonable prices in downtown San Francisco is a rarity.

This is the ideal spot for lunch or dinner and a hot bowl of noodles. The pork was deliciously juicy, the egg was cooked to perfection, and the Tonkotsu broth was very flavorful.

Service was quite good and attentive in both the upper and lower levels. Can recommend.“

“My reason for no dinner tonight; I had a late lunch To Go, today 2:45 pm, Torraku-Ramen on De Haro, Chicken Katsu Don, Tempura and Edamame- All So Yummy!“

“This is long overdue for how much I love this place. It's a quiet quaint little restaurant with some real flavor coming out the back. Granted I've never sat down to eat but it's your run of the mill "no frills" residential SF restaurant. The service is always friendly and quick. The food is where the hoopla is at. I'm not gonna scream and say best ramen in SF (though for me...personally...) This is genuinely my comfort restaurant. The protein portions don't make you question the price as SF will do to many. When I want guaranteed good meal on an off day or a rainy day, then I just go here. I hope to see them stay and if they desire to, expand. Please check them out if your on the fence.

Also very effective take out/delivery packaging of food. For some reason restaurants struggle with ramen packaging, though they make it so simple. This usually means I can enjoy my ramen and then whatever soup/broth I have leftover (I'm light on my broth) then I can make another meal the next day. Bless.

Parking: There paid street parking on Ocean Ave and free parking in the residentials surrounding. THERE IS NO PARKING/CURBSIDE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE BUSINESS.“

“awesome flavors! really good food“

“ok this is one of the best izakayas i’ve ever been to… the hamachi was buttery soft and melted in your mouth & the sauces were sooo perfectly paired with the proteins! the chicken skewers were moist and juicy. it was pretty pricey with 4 appetizers coming out to ~$65 with tip. pretty small place with only seating for max like a party of 4.“

“I was today years old when i found out that tofu was a dessert. I added tofu to my order of spicy miso ramen and guess what? That thing did not look like the normal tofu i know and then it was as sweet as candy. Common, i know this can’t be normal, please give us the food we ask for in traditional way. If i go to a japanese restaurant i want to eat it japanese food not american. Everything else was great. Thank you“

“Twice in one week in a business trip to SF - happened upon ilppudo and came back a few days later. Friendly staff, great Raman and nice interior.“

“What a gem! The food was terrific. Three of us dined on a combination of entrees, small plates and sides. The service was attentive and warm. Seating was comfortable and it had a busy vibe but we could hear each other without straining. Great value too.“

“Quite possibly the best, most above and beyond customer service experience I may ever have in my entire life.

I placed a delivery order on toast and no delivery driver ever came to the restaurant to pick it up.

Waraku was closing for the night sooner than I would have been able to walk there and pick it up myself. Instead of what most places would have done and just refund the order and leave it at that; the manager, Scott personally delivered it to me.

The food was also as excellent as their customer service.

I sincerely can not reccomend this place enough“

“Quail + Crane had surpassed our expectations. Starting with the view of the airplanes, arts and ambience of the hotel. Enjoying all that while eating our wonderful dinner. And Sean our server was all smiles while attending to our needs.
Thank you SFO Grand Hyatt. We will surely comeback and bring our friends and family to share with them our experience.“

“A hole-in-the-wall with ambience and moody lighting, serving tasty food behind a medieval-looking door.This restaurant always looked closed, but I finally decided to open the door today to order the Chashu Braised Pork Belly, the first item on the menu posted on the window, to go. Inside were beautiful hanging lights and an assortment of plants that gave the place a cozy atmosphere. There was only one other customer who was about to leave at the time I entered.After ordering and paying over $8 ($7 +taxes), I asked the cashier if it was always that empty and she said no. Apparently, there used to be lots of customers before the pandemic, but since it was a barbeque place, they needed special tables. It's a small restaurant with a small storefront, and next to a parking lot, so there isn't really room to build a parklet or put tables outside.I got my food about nine minutes after ordering, in a medium-sized paper bag, which felt a little light. When I got home, I excitedly opened the bag to see what was inside. It was three pieces of pork belly (which, by the way, is one of the cheaper cuts of pork) inside a tiny aluminum container, with a piece of arugula on top. I was a bit underwhelmed. Each piece was about the size of two Chapstick containers side-by-side. The pork belly was very tender and basically melted in my mouth. It was some great pork belly, and because it was protein and fat, it was filling. Still, I expected more.This is a nice hole-in-the-wall that most people walk past without thinking. The service was excellent and the food was delicious, but I expected more than three pieces of pork for the price. However, based on other reviews, the ramen is probably fantastic. I really want to give five stars, but my experience was worth four stars.“

“Super nice staff, great food and wonderful atmosphere.“

“Beyond the best Ramen in SF. It’s no wonder it’s always on the top 100 for the Chronicle. Michelin needs to review“

“This is a HIDDEN GEM!!Delicious!!! vegetable ramen- fresh steamed veggies, piping hot broth, huge portion! Pork dumplings- steaming, fresh! Strawberry milk tea- not overly sweet, I am a harsh critic of bobas!Attentive, quiet service! Price point in reasonable.“

“This location is a stand in the back of a supermarket. The ramen is super salty and oily, a bit too much for my liking but the taste was good.

There was just one guy running the whole show when I went. Order on the kiosk.“

“Very good food in a charming place.I enjoyed all the food that was served to me from the starters to the main dishes.Even small regular starters like the Edamame were really really good and tasty. I also loved the fried chicken starter, served with a nice mayonnaise dressing on the side. The ramen itself was also very good.Everything was served in big portions, which we weren’t able to finish.The service was good, as the waiters were particularly helpful with our requests to replace ingredients with others that were not on the menu.“

“My “Go to” Ramen spot when I’m in the Richmond District. Ive tried almost the entire menu..My favorite is the House Special Tonkatsu Ramen with an extra side of Ramen noodles. There’s usually little to no waiting as it seems that neighborhood customers are very considerate of one another. Service goes a long way for me. The Staff seems to remember what both my daughter and I like to order as the food comes out right away. I think this place is a great addition to the block and a good place to take a friend or a date..the atmosphere is very neutral and you are able to carry on a conversation (even when it’s crowded). If you’re in the Richmond and enjoy Ramen, this place is worth a visit.

Kid-friendliness: They have small bowls and plates for kids…window seating and long bench seating for them to enjoy.“

“I love the ramen, the only thing is that I was expecting a softer yolk in the egg, but i got a hard boiled instead, they overcooked the egg, but its okay...“

“An affordable Thai restaurant with good food and friendly service. We ordered a Cucumber Salad, Pad See Ew and Pad Thai. All three dishes were very nicely presented and very good. The Cucumber Salad was generously sprinkled with Bonito flakes, giving it a strong fish flavor. The food was very nicely presented and the restaurant is bright and clean. Access to the bathroom requires a trip through the kitchen.“

“I ordered the Beef Okonomiyaki, some people call it Japanese Pizza, a delicious pancake made with a special batter with tempura flakes, small pieces of sliced beef, leeks and cabbage mixed and topped with very thin dry sliced beef, Japanese mayonnaise and a sweet umami sauce similar to Tonkatsu sauce. This restaurant opens early and serves American breakfast among other things.“

“It was not our first time here , it’s one of those places where u wanna go on the weekends cuz easy working n most importantly, not too pricey and food is good for the prices.
I got two lunch ramen , and was able to ask to swap out the rice for more salads
Def will go back with my children.
It’s a cozy little restaurant, it’s a place for u to eat finish n go place.

Parking: Street parking was easy on a Sunday lunch time

Kid-friendliness: They were able to provide forks , kids tableware , but no stroller“

“This palce is a certain of community and history on Bernal Heights. Old friends come in to greetings of hugs and kisses from the staff. New patrons are welcomed in almost equal fashion! The food and vibe is hearty and made with love. No Reservations. Come over, put you name down, but you can enjoy wine or beer from a freat ludt inside or outsides as you wait. Shhh!!! Don't tell anyone else.“

“This place is amazing. The ramen quality is very consistent here. But the curry rice plate is okay. This is a true gem amongst the many mediocre ramen shops in the bay area. This is a place I'm willing to drive to just for ramen even if it is in the city.“

“It has a very interesting menu, I really enjoy the food.“

“After lunch, I was surprised that they didn't have more people eating in this establishment. This is a great place for a date or to come alone. The food is amazing 10/10. We had the omakase nigiri. 10 pieces of pure magic. The ramen just was amazing the best i had in san Francisco. The staff was amazing too. Definitely give them a visit. 10/10“

“Located near Luckys and Lowes, this is a neighborhood hole in the wall. It’s not an Ichi Ramen (shown in the front of the restaurant) as they just never spent the money to replace the sign. Being said this place gets packed fast especially on weekends. It’s a great spot for rice porridge and other Cantonese comfort food. Guess don’t judge the book by its cover 😉Tried the pork rice congee (hope I spelled that right) and the beef stew clay pot with both the regular and sweet Chinese doughnut. Enjoyed the tender pork and thick porridge. Beef stew was also very tender and savory 😋 I say check it out.“

“Wir waren zu zweit zum Abendessen dort und es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir sind zuerst dran vorbei gelaufen, weil das Restaurant eher klein und unauffällig ist. Die Ramen waren sehr lecker und reichlich. Es gibt eine vielfältige Auswahl an Ramen, darunter auch ein paar ungewöhnliche Kreationen. Der Service war sehr schnell und freundlich. Wir würden aufjedenfall wiederkommen.“

“Good food and fast service!“

“very fresh sushi, good service ☺️“

“Just went here our first time on valintines day and although I did not have any noodles we had spicy spring rolls the Katsu chicken and chicken teriyaki skewers and everything tasted so good thin cuts of chicken lots of flavor all under thirty bucks we will definitely be back“

“Outdoor patio seating is available for all dog-lovers to enjoy their Sushi 🍣/ Ramen🍤🍜. And please ask staff for some water for the lovely ones🐶🐱 if they are exhausted from their walk. 😘“
