“5-Star Review
Ramen Nagi is an amazing spot for ramen lovers! The ramen was rich, flavorful, and satisfying, with delicious toppings and perfectly cooked noodles. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming. Overall, a fantastic dining experience in Palo Alto. Definitely 5 stars—I’ll be coming back!“

“Stopped by Ramen Kowa after an AI workshop nearby, and honestly, it was a cute and easy little dinner stop on California Ave. The menu had a pretty solid variety of ramen, including tonkotsu, spicy miso tonkotsu, shoyu, shio, and miso, along with Japanese comfort foods like karaage and curry.
The restaurant has a casual, slightly izakaya-style vibe, and the outdoor seating was nice for a chill Palo Alto evening. The ramen was good and satisfying overall, although I personally wished the broth had a little more depth and richness, especially for the price. The service was friendly, and everything came out smoothly.
Overall, I’d give it around 3.5 stars. It’s a solid neighborhood ramen spot and a convenient choice if you’re already hanging out around California Ave, but probably not somewhere I’d drive a long distance specifically to visit.
Also, I was so hungry after the workshop that I totally forgot to take pictures of the food—so all I ended up with was a photo of the storefront lol“

“My girlfriend and I have always looked at this place and took a chance and stopped by. It was really good. I had the wrap. Bathrooms are clean. They even have toothbrushes in the bathrooms so you can brush your teeth after your meal. They even have DJ lights. Super friendly personnel. Next time I got to try the beers.“

“I like the quality of their ramen. The portion, the thickness of the char siew and the onsen egg, delicious! If i can suggest one thing, it will the hotness of the soup. They have to serve it piping hot and it will be bring heaven to earth. We ate there today and the soup is just warm.. so maybe next time i visit here i hope they will make it more hot. Thanks!“

“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 really enjoyed the flavor profile at this place.
You are greeted warmly upon arrival; the space is neither large nor tiny. It is an open-concept restaurant (you can see the kitchen), and the place is bright and clean.
You order via a QR code, and the food arrives at your table quickly.
The portions are neither too big nor too small; I find them just right—whether you're really hungry or want to take some leftovers home for later.
I will definitely be back to try more of the menu (honestly, everything looks spectacular).“

“Nice place to eat, I only give the food 4 stars because the little differences in their rolls compares to others I've had with the same name just wasn't really for me. I ate them and enjoyed them as best I could and had no issues with them just not the best I've tried of rolls with that name.“

“The quality has changed since the beginning. Still good but felt like it was lacking something when I’ve tried it in the past. I’m not sure what it is exactly. Use to love coming here since you can shop at the same time and get ice cream.“

“Best ramen EVER ❤️ The tonkotsu is my all time favorite hands down!“

“This has been our favorite udon spot for a while now. The only other spot we would consider competition is Udon Mugizo but we love this place a lot more. First, the noodles have better texture and their oxtail broth is perfectly seasoned. For appetizers, we really like their chicken karaage and their mackerel.
Their service is also really great. We have a 4 month old and he was clearly trying to sleep. Our server was kind enough to put lullaby music on for him and overall was just a really nice guy. I wish we got his name but it was one of our most memorable meals ever!“

“The sushi here is seriously good - fresh ingredients, creative rolls you won’t find anywhere else. The Fuji Roll? Absolutely delicious. Prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly, even if the vibe inside feels a bit cramped and could use a deeper clean. It’s a small spot, so I’d recommend takeout or delivery over dining in. For the quality of food though, it’s worth it.“

“Amazing service. We had lunch there today. I ordered for the table and for one roll to go. When they brought the food the server realized they put two of the rolls in the to go box. And instantly said she’d have them make another for me to eat here and the second one was on the house. They also give free drinks when you dine in. They are wonderfully run!!!!“

“Picked up gyozas and a couple of rolls including a fried one. Everyone at home loved it. It was ordered on Uber Eats and was done fast on a Sunday afternoon. The staff was also friendly and helpful when we got to the restaurant for pick up. Would recommend“

“Excellent spicy miso broth, not too spicy, but enough to warm you up by the end of the bowl. There are a lot of options including half noodles.“

“After Baylands Park, we were interested in finding a place for lunch. My wife has been here for work lunch before transitioning to fully remote years ago. My wife recognized the waitress/owner so she already knows the food here is good. Instead of the usual ramen (which are delicious by the way), we opted for the pork combo rice and beef noodle dishes. My autistic son loved it and I'm happy he went out of his comfort zone to try new things.“

“I came to Yugen Ramen in Mountain View on a Thursday evening and got the tantan ramen.
The tantan ramen was probably the best ramen I've ever had. The broth was very flavorful, and the spice level stood out the most. The toppings were good, the noodles were cooked well, and the chicken tasted really nice too. The portion was very good for the price, which made it incredibly satisfying.
It was pretty crowded, but we were seated right away. The guy who took our order was very friendly. The atmosphere was cozy and casual, and not too noisy.“
