Ramen Restaurants near Newark, CA

“From the street view you would never guess this cozy ramen spot was hiding back here. I’m so glad we have a Hinodeya in this side of the bay! The interior is so welcoming and nicely arranged. You order from your phone at your table, and the food comes out hot and fast.

I was pleasantly by the number of vegan options on the menu! The yuzu ramen was refreshing and so good. I would also recommend some soft serve if you’re craving a sweet treat. I would definitely come back here to try more.“

“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!“

“The food here is amazing! All the ingredients are super fresh, and you can tell they really care about quality. The spicy and sour soup base is so flavorful and perfectly balanced — tangy, spicy, and comforting. The place is clean and the staff are friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Good ramen, hella busy, backed up urinal which was mildly unpleasant but the food was super good. Kudos to the person with the aux cord for playing anime openings. It was hard eating noodles while head banging to Sorairo Days - this guy knows ball“

“Went here for the first time with my sister who has been here several times before and Omg! Everything was incredible 🤤 we got there pretty late so the kitchen had run out of a few things but everything that we tried was so good! Very hot and fresh, we ordered several appetizers to share and I loved everything. Then the entrees came out and they were all beautifully presented, and so flavorful! This place really is a gem and I will definitely be stopping by when I’m in the area again.“

“I went for lunch with one of my friends here. We had spicy miso ramen and monster ramen. I seldom leave a review but this time I really wanted to give ten star review. The owner lady was super friendly, and she makes the soup with pride. The price is not that expensive either. I will definitely come back!“

“I’ve been coming to Kowa since it’s opened in 2020. Always wonderful staff, not too loud, great quality ramen at reasonable price. I honestly think it tastes much better than Ramen Nagi, which is way too oily and always super crowded with a long line. As a palo alto resident, I highly recommend this cute ramen place!“

“Being a vegetarian and never trying Ramen I was bit unsure, but Sojo Ramen had the best Veggie Ramen available and I was able to customize it to my liking.. honestly it tasted like a nice warm maggie noodle soup and quantity was also good. Other options with shrimp etc were equally great“

“Mala Town is hands down one of the best spots for Sichuan dry pot in Union City! You get to pick your own ingredients and spice level, and they stir-fry everything to perfection with that addictive numbing-spicy mala flavor. Portions are generous, perfect for sharing, and prices are fair for the quality.

The medium spice has a nice kick, but if you love heat, go for the higher levels—it’s legit spicy! Service is quick and friendly, and the restaurant has a clean, modern vibe. Definitely a go-to place if you’re craving bold flavors and want a fun, shareable meal.“

“The Spicy Basil Chicken is the best.“

“The Tonkotsu broth and original thick noodles were great and the free garlic/chilli was divine (got 2 servings of the chilli) chashu belly was melt in your mouth delicious but portion wise was a bit lacking.

The main pain point was the wait honestly. I think I waited about an hour due to a nearby convention and being a walk-in customer. Definitely try to get a reservation if you want to try their ramen.

The MAIN thing I liked was how they included a 15% service feeand tell you about it upfront and don't ask for additional gratuity! What a huge surprise considering the other places I've been to.

Side note: place is cashless.“

“Food was delicious, Vy, my server was AMAZING. Will definitely be back, soon.

I had the black garlic pork Ramen, extra spicy. It burned so GOOD, had to take half to go. Every ingredient was fresh, flavorful, and filled with that homemade love that takes a meal to a special place.

The spice didn't overpower the strong flavors of garlic and soy that made every bite just pop with delight.

Vy really made the experience, though. She was on top of everything, with a warm smile and kind word. Gave me some good recommendations, as well as a tip for what I should try next time after I told her how much I enjoyed what I had ordered. Her quick resting and warm welcome got me into the building, and made me not want to leave.

Make sure you keep her as a server because she is definitely a benefit to a fantastic place. Thank you, guys, for the good time! 😁“

“Listen up, here's the move if you're coming here for ramen: get the chicken paitan ramen and skip the tonkotsu deluxe. No idea why, but while the broth for the tonkotsu was fine, it didn't transfer to the noodles at all so the total effect was it lacking flavor. My partner had the chicken paitan and I ended up wishing I'd gotten that instead.“

“I liked everything, the food is tasty, maybe a little spicy. Cooking time is 10-15 minutes. Good sashimi. I also liked the chicken ramen and the seafood ramen. The tables are small and the water in iron glasses, but overall I can recommend it. There may not be enough food for the children.$100 - family 4x with tips.“

“excellent. I've eaten here several times and have never been disappointed. Perfect katsu and surprisingly perfect veg. they give you a generous portion and I am impressed.“

“As a ramen expert, I can tell you this place is very authentic. Only exception is the red ginger, which is American. This place is what I expect for Ramen, the majority elsewhere, you're paying for industrial noodles. I was skeptical at first because this area has a lot of fakes, but it's legit.

The best part of this restaurant is the noodles. They're definitely made fresh, hand crafted, and inhouse. You're getting your money's worth. Unlike the lower end places that charge premium.

The Ginjo soup is super thick and rich. It's essentially straight up a bowl of tsukemen, not necessarily the traditional tori paitan, but ultimately it's good.

I highly recommend this ramen, in that area, it's definitely the best within 10 miles radius, nothing is better.“

“Only down side is small parking lot. Do recommend street parking since the lot is very small

Recommend: Sashimi and Nigiri is well prepared. But everything is fairly pricey

The sushi here is very good and well made. Good quality fish“

“An surprisingly great underrated Ramen spot. A short walk from my parent’s was this tiny no frills Ramen and Tea restaurant. Dude was playing smooth Jazz. Cool artwork on the walls, plus the low key mess from working made it amazing. I felt like was some unassuming Tokyo suburb that simply serves great food.“

“Love their foods, so delicious and fancy will bring my family & friends there again!!“

“This Japanese tsukemen restaurant is really impressive. Whether it is the food, environment or service, it is full of sincerity. It is highly recommended!

First of all, their tsukemen are so delicious. The noodles are chewy and chewy, cooked just right, neither too soft nor too hard, and can absorb the rich dipping sauce perfectly. The soup has rich flavors, with a strong flavor of fish meat and tonkotsu. It is thick but not overly greasy, and every bite is full of concentrated delicious flavor. The accompanying barbecued pork meat is soft and tender, the fat is evenly distributed, and melts in your mouth, making the whole bowl of tsukemen even more delicious. In addition, the store also provides extra stock, which can be added with dipping sauce to turn into soup after eating the noodles. Such details make people feel the charm of authentic Japanese tsukemen.

The atmosphere inside the store is also quite great, the decoration is simple and full of Japanese style, and the lighting is warm and soft, creating a comfortable dining environment. The seats are well spaced so you won't feel crowded, and the background music is soft Japanese melodies, allowing you to relax and enjoy your food.

The most commendable thing is the attentive service of the clerk. From entering to ordering and serving, every detail is attentive. The clerk is kind and polite, and will also explain how to eat the meal, making people feel enthusiastic and professional. Overall, this restaurant not only has delicious tsukemen, but the overall dining experience is also very enjoyable. It is definitely worth a try and will make you want to come back again and again!“

“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.“

“great customer service, very polite and attentive. ありがとございます！“

“One of the tastiest ramen I have had in my life!

5 year update: I am a vegetarian, and I still maintain my original rating. There are only two vegetarian selections, but it's enough. It's quality over quantity, which matters.
I am a regular here, I go there once a week, of I can manage it.“

“People are so focused on the fancy concept and the extravagant atmosphere, making them miss authenticity, this places is like the neighborhood restaurant from your small villa, love the atmosphere, the food is full of real flavor, nothing extravagant, just simplicity and flavor, and the lady in the front desk provides us a great experience, making us feel comfortable. A must go if you are looking for good food.... and the portions are HUGE!!!“

“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.“
