Spicy Miso Ramen was great! Also tried Tonkatsu but preferred the spicy Miso broth more. Everything is good here, must try!

Super cute spot, service is always super quick, for ordering and receiving food. This is the best Ramen spot I've found in the Bay Area so far.

Super solid shoyu ramen with chashu. Broth and veggies were excellent. Pretty quiet dinner scene on a Thursday.

Tried their spicy miso ramen. Noodles were good, chewy. I didn’t like their broth. Felt it was strangely overpowered by the kombu they put in it. Had green onions, mushrooms, a yummy jammy egg, and bok choy. Not my favorite ramen in the bay. Service was fine enough.

Hate to leave a review like this but in a town that’s bursting at the seams with solid ramen options, this was just not good. I chose this based on location and the solid google reviews, but the ramen was just not edible, almost none of us finished our meals, nor the vinegary beer that was just not drinkable. No comment or “how is everything” from the waiter. Sorry but skip this one.

The agedashi tofu, bacon-wrapped quail eggs, spicy miso ramen, and homemade mochi were all great

Sobo Ramen is a must-visit for ramen lovers. The broth is rich, the noodles are perfect, and the flavors are spot on. Plus, the staff is super friendly and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit!

Ramen is not my thing….
Fried chicken and dumplings are pretty good
Restaurantji Recommends
A lot of noodles
But not like Japanese ramen
The fried dumplings, fried chicken and fried tofu ordered as appetizers are all good.

Not sure if I came at a bad time but this place was extremely underwhelming. I ordered the black garlic mayu ramen and it came out lukewarm. The broth/chashu had no depth or flavor. Also ordered the chicken gyoza which had what seemed to be like chili garlic bits on top which tasted far too burnt to enjoy. Definitely not worth checking this place out with so many other options for ramen in the area. Kudos to the server though. She was the only one on during the lunch rush and was holding it down pretty well.

Low-key space with absolutely delicious ramen. I'm surprised it's not packed! Love it every time I got there. Love the tonkatsu!
