Toribashi Reviews
Friendly place , and the food is delicious!!!!!!
The soup base was the best I have tasted within the Japanese restaurants we've been. We were just here for a few days coming from Fresno. You should consider opening up another one in our area. Would highly recommend your soup. It's a 10!!!
They have excellent service and very accommodating. They have a quick and easy way of ordering. The best tasting ramen in Monterey Bay area.

Toribashi serves delicious ramen with noodles that have the right texture. This small place has plenty of seating and features self-serve screens with photos, making ordering easy. The menu offers various options, including Shoyu Ramen, Vegetable Curry Ramen in fish broth, and the highly praised vegetarian Miso Ramen. Customers have noted the rich umami flavor of the paitan ramen, which strikes a balance between being salty and bland. The broth flavors vary, with some finding them mild and others not entirely authentic. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere reminiscent of Japan and is kid-friendly, with high chairs available and even improvised pillow back rests for smaller babies. Toribashi is a great option for families, and the customer service has been commended for being attentive, such as preparing a high chair without being asked. Diners can expect their meals to arrive quickly, often within 10 minutes, making it a convenient choice.
