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 yesterday on mother’s day and the restaurant was so lively busy. The food was lovely and delicious and they have the fast service and all the servers are so welcome and friendly. Overall, it’s very good all time and i would go back again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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.“

“I'm a different person now (positive). There were probably ~65 people in front of us waiting in line to get in and we waited for about 50 minutes. Respectfully? Incredibly worth the wait. My group got a few different bowls and honestly couldn't pick a fave - they were all so so so complex and delicious. TRULY chefs kiss 🤌. Also, the vegan tantanmen absolutely rocked our worlds. As meat eaters, we were so pleasantly surprised by the richness of flavors omg?!“

“Came here for a friend catchup and we got seated and had a reservation beforehand.

Good:
- The ramen came out very quickly - I got the classic ramen bowl
- The portion size was good - I was very full by the end
- A nice place to catch up - it's got japanese izakaya vibes and more dimly lit

Bad:
- The soup was really salty so it felt like it was unhealthy to drink too much of it

Overall this was a solid place to have an extended catch up and the ramen was quick and tasty.“

“Came here after seeing a video about it on Instagram. I think it has the best tsukemen I’ve had outside of Japan! The gravy/soup part is actually served super hot and is tasty. The normal tonkotsu ramen is also decorous. I liked the cucumber appetizer with some kind of chili garlic onion topping - refreshing and a nice starter to a heavy carb meal that follows.“

“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!“

“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 🤪“

“I come here about once a week. This place is always busy so put your name down on the waiting list and be prepared to wait 40 minute-80 minutes. The servers are attentive. Food comes out quick and the quality is consistently good. Seating can be tight. Get the deluxe ramen for the pork belly!“

“Amazing 🤩 Great service and tasty food“

“I’ve been looking for a good shio ramen ever since Ramen Halu in San Jose closed several years ago. And I finally found it in Ramen Hiroshi and quite by accident. Absolutely delicious chicken shio ramen - just the right level of salt and very refreshing. The chicken chashu was also among the best I’ve had - very juicy and tasty. I’ll definitely be coming back often!“

“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...“

“Solid ramen with big, bold flavor. The black garlic ramen will keep vampires away for miles! The tonkatsu ramen is my favorite and full of yummy, fatty pork umami.

The service is efficient and friendly and the atmosphere is basic and casual.“

“Spicy garlic tonkatsu ramen with spice level extra was pretty good, although I would call the spice level medium at most. The noodles were nice and springy and held the soup well. I did not find any ground pork in the soup. The waitress told me that they make the soup with ground pork. Maybe, but I doubt that ground pork dissolves completely. Probably, they forgot to put it in, but it was ok. Gyoza was also good.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“My fiancé and I visited Rural Ramen on New Year’s Day while spending a couple of days in San Francisco, and it was a highlight of our trip. The ramen was absolutely delicious—while we’re no experts, this was hands down the best tonkotsu ramen we’ve ever had. The ambience was warm and pleasant, and the service was excellent from start to finish. We also tried the flavored nigiri in strawberry and pineapple, which were a fun and tasty surprise, along with the shrimp tempura, which was perfectly cooked. We’d definitely come back and highly recommend this spot! 🍜“

“Hinodeya is situated in a happening area of the Marina and serves excellent quality food. Went with my partner for a date night we got swift service and excellent quality food. The Umami Brussels sprouts were perfectly cooked with bonito flakes dancing as the steam wafted from the plate. My ramen was light and flavourful and, though I’m not the biggest fish fan, the dashi broth was not overwhelming. Hinodeya also has great vegan ramen options, which is uncommon. My partner is vegan and this was a great feature for them. Additionally, the garden patio in the back is a lovely place to sit for a meal. Tables can be close together, but it creates a nice communal energy. And may lead to fun conversation across groups.“

“Best meal we've ever had.

Each dish was executed to perfection and the level of variety and uniqueness was unparalleled. There were so many different and novel flavor combinations. The most unique and the best ramens I've ever had.

The owners are so lovely and you can see the hard work and passion for cooking that they've put in. I can't wait for another opportunity to taste their cooking.“

“This place has officially ruined ramen for me. Because if I go somewhere else, I’ll compare it to this place, and just be like, “Damn, I should’ve just gone to Taniku Izakaya instead.”
Perfectly cooked noodles in a flavorful broth, both the crab and the pork that I have gotten have been amazing. They can adjust the spiciness on the broth if you can’t handle too much spice, which is nice. The portions are generous, but not so huge that there ends up being a huge bowl of broth even after you finish your noodles. Delicious gyoza, as well.
It’s a nice, cozy, hole in the wall spot.“

“I love that this chain has a yummy vegan ramen noodle and doesn't default to using rice noodles for their vegan ramen. The size of pumpkin slice you get seems to vary but otherwise flavors are on point every time I go. I always order the creamy vegan ramen, but it's nice that there's more than one vegan option. Currently my favorite spot to eat in SF.“

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

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“The manager made certain the restaurant was still open for us as we could not arrive until 10:00pm from our flight.We quickly selected our appetizer and main courses. The food was brought quickly. It was very tasty and served hot. The waiter was very nice and quite attentive. Great place! It is rare for a restaurant in an airport to be so good.“

“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.“

“Cozy restaurant, can fit a few small parties but the food was solid. We were in the area and were craving Thai food, this def hit the spot. We got the pad see ew and crab fried rice and mango sticky rice. My only wish is the mango was a lil bit bigger lol. If this is any testament to the authenticity of the cuisine, the entire staff was Thai.“

“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 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.“

“Went out to celebrate a special day and decided to try ramen for the first time. I absolutely loved the depth of flavor in the broth—it was a great introduction to the dish. The fried chicken we ordered didn’t quite live up to expectations, but the yakitori skewers were outstanding and definitely the highlight of the meal. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I’m excited to come back and explore more ramen options.“

“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.“

“Really interesting take on Ramen broth. The beef broth is rich yet not too thick. I prefer a richer Paitan but this is also good. Black garlic oil also adds more depth to the soup.

The noodle is bouncy and chewy with a strong smell of egg noodle.

Crispy mushroom is good but can be a little too salty to finish by a single person. A touch of something citrusy would help cut through the greasiness after half a dish.“

“Nice spot with 2 of my favorites items - ramen & boba. The food was pretty good, and you get to choose the type of meat in your ramen. At the end they gave us mango sorbet, what a nice surprise.

Popcorn Chicken ($8) - we had mixed reviews from my party. I liked it and thought the sauce was good.

Black Garlic Oil Ramen ($18) - nicely presented dish but flavor-wise I liked my friend's Spicy Tonkatsu more. The egg and chashu were ok.“

“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.“

“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. 😘“

“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“

“very fresh sushi, good service ☺️“

“Sushi Chef is my favorite sushi spot and the only place I order from regularly. The fish is always incredibly fresh, the quality is consistently excellent, and I’ve never been disappointed.

They’re also fantastic about accommodating my gluten allergy, which gives me a lot of confidence ordering from them. It’s my go-to recommendation whenever friends or family are visiting from out of town, and I’m just as happy dining there solo.

A true local favorite that never misses.“

“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“

“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.“

“Noodleosophy is local Bay Area chain focusing on hand-pulled noodle dishes, and this location in particular can be found in Millbrae's Social Eatery food hall. As part of Social Eatery, patrons can take a seat within the food hall, place their orders on the provided tablet, and a staff member will bring the food an beverages straight to your table.

We decided to get their beef tendon noodle soup and selected the biang biang noodles (you're able to customize the dish to your liking with whatever noodle option you prefer). We also got a side of their pork and shrimp dumplings, because who doesn't love dumplings?

The beef tendon noodle soup was rich and flavorful, while the accompanying noodles were perfectly cooked and chewy - providing a great mouth feel to the dish. The dumplings were delicious as well, and were a nice addition to the meal as a whole.

If you're ever in the Millbrae area and want a one-stop shop for all your dining and beverage needs, then Social Eatery is definitely the place to go and be sure to enjoy some delicious hand-pulled noodles from Noodleosophy while you're at it!“

“Good food and fast service!“

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