Ramen Restaurants near Daly City, CA

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

“came here for their $38 sashimi omakase. which was really good and fresh. great for the price for the selection we received & portions. sashimi came with a side of sushi rice. we also got the truffle ramen which I though was okay but my daughter loved it. Also got the snow white roll which I though was pretty good also.“

“It was my first time here. It’s pretty spacious inside. The staff was nice. Unfortunately, I can’t remember the roll I got but it was good. The Karaage was good and my friend’s bento box with fried tempura and teriyaki chicken was good. I thought everything was tasty. No complaints.“

“This is our regular Japanese restaurant that we come regularly. I usually order unagy fried rice, veggie dragon and caterpillar to share. My husband usually order a bento box with chicken karaage and beef teriyaki while mom would have a bento box of salmon teriyaki and chicken teriyaki. It’s always good. Considering we are regulars, the waitress was very surprised when we ordered the following. Today we ordered veggie tempura (yummy), miso ramen, honey tonkatsu ramen, and mother ordered Charshu ramen. Not bad. Soup was not salty and it was enough.

Update: 06/05/2025

Wanted to have a lite dinner. We ordered: tempura morí, caterpillar roll to share, Charcui ramen, spiral ramen, tempura udon, vege ramen, and chicken don. Not bad. The soup was not salty. Portions was just right. We all finished our dinner and appetizer.

Update: 07/08/2025

Felt like noodles. We ordered: Seafood Ramen, Miso Ramen and bento boxes. We shared: Tempura Miro and Caterpillar Sushi. Yummy.“

“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.“

“This was phenomenal. The soup broth was SO flavorful and the egg looked like it was birthed by a golden chicken. Seriously incredible. My only qualm is that they don’t let you adjust the toppings. I personally don’t like pork but was unable to switch it out for another type of meat. Other than that, seriously great ramen. Server was super nice as well and the vibes were great.“

“Popped into here while doing a long walk around the Potrero/Mission area. Normally I over-research a place on Google Maps, but I decided to walk right in.

That was a good move! Their signature pork ramen was great. Thick broth, good egg, good chashu. The takoyaki was good, but pretty standard.

They sell jars of their own chili crisp called Umami Mommy for $8! I got the crispy one.

I can not explain it, but the restroom is very photogenic.“

“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!“

“Amazing 🤩 Great service and tasty food“

“死んで天国に行った気分だ。
(Shinde tengoku ni itta kibun da.)
“I feel like I died and went to heaven.”

Try the Chicken Paitan Soy Sauce ramen—hands down the best ramen I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. The balance of flavors is absolutely perfect. I went to bed without brushing my teeth just so I could savor them all night 🤪“

“Taniku Izakaya is a great spot for skewers and a solid casual night out. I really liked the spicy scallop hand rolls and the takoyaki, and the food overall was worth the wait. It does get busy, and there was a line since reservations are only for a couple tables, but we only waited about 20–30 minutes. The vibe was lively, and everything felt well worth it.“

“Located in a shopping mall, this ramen shop looks normal and unassuming from the outside. However, we were pleasantly surprised! We were seated almost instantly, and ordered gyozas to start. They were crisp, hot, and juicy! They had various ramen styles on the menu and rice bowls. Our ramen was delivered in a timely manner and was incredibly tasty. The portions are quite big and left us feeling full the whole day. The only thing is I do wish the boiled egg had been cut as it was very hard to eat without taking it out of the ramen and cutting it up myself. Service was attentive and friendly.“

“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...“

“Right at the edge of China town. Tried a lotus vegetable with mayo it was not good a bit too raw for me, also the squid legs which was good but a bit greasy. However we tried two different Ramen and they were delicious. Broth was very flavorful and heavy. Half egg 🥚 a nice touch usually you pay extra for the egg so it was nice to have it come in the dish. Service was nice and fast. Overall we had a great meal. There is allot of seating areas. I say check it out.“

“Amazing 🤩 Great service and tasty food“

“We got recommended this spot, and oh my god, this place was amazing, the host was super friendly, very informative of the Menu and overall just seemed like a very genuine person. The food was incredibly delicious. I got the Spicy Miso Mild and it absolutely hit every spot!! will definitely be coming back for more!“

“I am so impressed with the food and staff at this restaurant. We came in around 8 PM, 30 minutes prior to closing and was worried staff would be annoyed with having to serve such a large group. Instead, we were greeted with smiles and well cared for. Every single person in our group praised the food. There were lots of options for everyone in the group. I enjoyed a Shoyu Ramen. The broth was flavorful, not “fishy”. Portions were excellent. So glad we found this place. Looking forward to coming here again!“

“Wonderful ramen experience today at Hinodeya. Never knew that you can put butter to ramen - it made the broth extra rich, then I read that it’s Hokkaido style (makes sense given their cold climate).

Our food was perfectly seasoned, rich, flavourful and portions were generous. I’ll definitely come back for more ramen and for trying the rest of the menu (bentos looked really appealing!).“

“The ramen tastes very good, the soup base is rich and the noodles taste great“

“The meat was delicious, the broth tasty and the noodles perfectly cooked. Not soggy, with the right amount of bite to it. The crispy mushrooms were also really good! I'm not a big fan of fried food, but this one was delicious! I definitely want to come back and try their rice bowls! They sounded really good! Plenty of counter sitting and a few tables.“

“Had the duck ramen. It was great. I see why this place is so popular. Also you have the option to eat either inside or outside. It was a beautiful day so we chose outside. All was good until some random homeless lady was asking us for food, when we obliged she specified that she doesn’t eat meat. There was only meat on the table so we were unable to help. Let’s say a prayer for her“

“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.“

“Our hostess Jolly was pleasant and friendly! The service was impeccable and the food was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious! We are from the East coast and this restaurant was on par with some of the best restaurants in New York City. It's difficult to find a clean, quiet, premium hotel on site of an airport with an equally top notch restaurant. The Hyatt is the place to stay at SFO and enjoy a great dining experience at Quail & Crane! We will be back!“

“All the food is delicious and the place is nice and cozy. I would highly recommend for anyone willing to try Thai food in the area.

There was this ‘chili dipped in oil‘ which was included as a side along with hot sauce. We liked it so much that we ordered just the chili sauce. They were planning to sell this as a packaged food in near future and we happened to be the first customers for that item.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“The server was so nice and the food came out after 10 mins of ordering and the food was good and good portions. Recommended to get a drink of you're ordering food and apps. Cozy place in Geary. Loved the flavor on the K.O. ramen and the Kobe Ramen. The Curry Lamb rice plate was also pretty delicious.“

“so my wife and I were craving some ramen for lunch in San Francisco. I came upon this random spot on Google, read the reviews & skimmed the menu. looked pretty damn good based on our personal ramen preferences. my wife ordered the black garlic oil ramen. I ordered the spicy tonkatsu ramen. we both are very picky with our ramen - we like our broth rich, salty, creamy & flavorful. and let me tell you, coming from the east coast / NJ / NYC (we have great ramen spots there) - AFTER HOURS RAMEN TOTALLY DELIVERED 200%. I could not stress enough to my wife how satisfied I was with our meal today. oh & they had some nice 2000s hip hop/pop/r&b music playing during our lunch. loved it.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you're in the SF area. located couple blocks from ocean beach so you can walk off your food.

AFTER HOURS RAMEN, thank you so much for the delicious food & service! this is our go-to now! see you soon!

PS. it's BYOB. there's a liquor store right on the corner of Taraval & 40th. you're welcome :)“

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

“BEST RAMEN EVER! I've eaten ramen all over the U.S. & this is absolutely the best I've ever had! You can't beat the rich savory creamy broth, tender noodle, moist chashu, all fresh toppings & generous portions. The beef short rib was fabulous flavor & succulent.
I had miso ramen & my son had TanTan ramen. This is my new favorite ramen eatery!
Staff is super kind & accommodating. I'm in electric wheelchair and they made space for me at their cozy restaurant. Food came out very quickly.“

“Finally, a reasonably affordable and delicious ramen that's walking distance! Great service and SUPER ACCESSIBLE. Wide enough for those chonky electric wheelchairs, if you have one! If a scooter can fit in the restroom, then so can you!“

“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.“

“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“

“Delicious! You will not be disappointed.“

“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!!!“

“I was actually jonesing for some good Japanese curry when we were searching for a place to eat.. I decided on Fumi because the Japanese curry before the ramen lol must be good if it’s first right? It was perfect and the ramen was really good too. I definitely recommend this place for doing “simply” delicious.“

“Tried Miki Japanese on Balboa and it was a good experience. Friendly staff and efficient service along with a casual ambiance. The chirashi bowl had fresh fish with seasoned rice, nicely portioned and balanced. The salmon teriyaki and mixed tempura bento was also solid — the salmon was cooked well with a flavorful glaze, and the tempura was crisp without being oily. The bento sides rounded out the meal well. Overall, a good spot for Japanese food in the neighborhood.“

“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.“

“very fresh sushi, good service ☺️“

“Got in late and wanted some great sushi for takeout. They were quick, super friendly, and the sushi was truly amazing. Some of the best Takeaway I have had. Would highly recommend eating in or doing Takeaway. Just picking up the environment was great, and more on the laid-back side for how good the sushi was.“

“I went in and it looks a little deceiving because I thought it might be a pre made meal type of set up but it turns out it was really well done and felt homemade plus they stay open later then most places which is a huge plus definitely check it out!! I got the chicken katsu curry btw“

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

“I finally tried this place out after some years. I’ve wanted to for some time but they close early at 5:30. I usually eat ramen at night, too bad they don’t stay open for dinner.
I was pleasantly surprised that the Karamiso Ramen was tasty and satisfying. I’ll definitely go back again.“

“reasonably priced ramen. The food was really good. The tonkatsu broth was excellent and went well with the pork. My daughter had the chicken ramen which was a little overcooked but still tasty. My other daughter had the veggie tofu with mild spice. Mild was still pretty spicy so avoid if your sensitive to spicy food. Overall we were pleased and will return.“

“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. 😘“

“Great Service. Friendly People, Good Food. Been coming here for awhile!!“

“Good food and fast service!“

“I’ve been coming to this restaurant for around 15 years during every single visit to San Francisco. I brought my husband 9 years ago during our honeymoon. This time we brought our 8 year old. We were so excited to share this amazing restaurant with him. The ramen is so flavorful and has body in the broth. I will always return to this restaurant during any visit to San Francisco.
During this visit of 9 days we came here 3 times, this is how much we absolutely love everything about this restaurant!!!!!“

“I’ve finally made it to this Asian fusion
casual spot. Rustic ambiance and seating options for all party sizes. Friendly service.
Menu is a good blend of Korean and Japanese food.
Everything was tasty and portioned to share or eat solo.
A good spot to visit.“
