Ramen Restaurants near Palo Alto, CA

“We tried the Gyu King Ramen and the Original King Ramen.

The Gyu King (limited edition) was amazing!The broth had such a rich, deep beef flavor and tasted super comforting. Definitely worth trying while it’s available.

The Original King is always solid. I like adding a bit of the spicy sauce which cuts the richness and makes the soup feel lighter and more balanced.

Would happily come back again!“

“One of the good vegetarian ramens I’ve had. It has good flavor and the noodles were also cooked well. Silken tofu, brussel sprouts and ginger is a great combination with Ramen. Edamame tossed in light garlic and Sparkly jelly sake were cherry on top.“

“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“

“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.“

“3 people less than $100, large portions“

“Yuzu ramen was light and citrusy - great contrast to the typical heavy broth ramen you usually get. Kakiage and tea were both tasty as well. Our table split a matcha parfait at the end -- might have struggled to eat one solo. They don't do reservations -- prepare for the Yelp waitlist!“

“Amazing ramen with rich, flavorful broth and perfectly cooked noodles. The quality and taste are consistently excellent. Depending on the day, you may have to wait to be seated, but once you are, the service is fast, efficient, and well organized. Definitely worth the wait and highly recommended.“

“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!“

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

“Tried the black curry out of curiosity. Honestly, it was a very disorienting experience eating what looks like black sludge while simultaneously tasting curry. 10/10 experience if you want to try something unusual. They can also make the curries vegetarian, too.

The food is good but I wouldn’t say it is exceptional, however, giving five stars because the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating even though we showed up 20 min before closing.“

“If you are looking for a hot and comforting ramen bowl in Mountain View, this is definitely the place to go. It’s absolutely fantastic, from the food, to the vibes of the place to the service, you will have a wonderful night.

I recommend the Chicken Ramen, it was super comforting and enjoyable! The portions are big so you will end up being full, but happy.“

“Wow, just had the Chirashi bowl and was expecting average quality fish at best.. only to be pleasantly surprised by some of the freshest and flavorful sashimi I’ve ever had

Will definitely be back! Hope the quality is like this all the time!“

“My daughter and I really enjoy the ramen.“

“Aburi Shime Saba: (5/5)
The aburi shime saba is the best thing on the menu. It’s lightly poached and the caramelized sugar on top adds the perfect contrast of texture and flavor. I’ve been here a few times to try the appetizers, but the MUST GET item is still this saba.

Uzumakiya Udon: (4/5)
The Uzumakiya Udon is good，the noodles are chewy, not overcooked; and the broth is flavorful. The other toppings leave something to be desired, so if you want to be satisfied, order the Oxtail instead. (Although it’s gotten quite expensive😔）“

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

“This place is ASTRONOMICAL. Sushi is cheap for the area, is extremely flavorful, and the attention to detail on some of these rolls are just chefs kiss. I come here very often to get food and it is highly enjoyed by me and friends. If your in the area and are craving sushi this is the place to go. One (extremely) small downside is for the tuna. Sometimes it's color is very light and is sometimes chopped in smaller rolls like the smaller tuna roll. Other than that everything is PERFECT“

“actually an amazing place. HOW IS IT NOT MORE POPULAR.

the food is BOMB. the lady there is so sweet and helped me on a mandarin project freshman year of hs. love her so much. she is bilingual speaking both english and chinese 服务员可以说英文和中文。

the atmosphere is really chill but is still restaurant vibes it’s great for when i want to go with my friends

also SO AFFORDABLE (especially in comparison to the rest of downtown los altos)

WOULD RECOMMEND 1000%“

“It can get busy really quick and for a great reason! This was one of the best ramen in the area, flavorful, great portion and amazing all around. It was not heavy greasy and the noodles were perfect.

Hubby and I only got the ramen but will def come back for the mazemen noodles. Their sides were vary flavorful too.

Good atmosphere, clean, small and the staff were super friendly and knowledgeable of the food, really appreciated that too.“

“We have been ordering from Yoshi Sushi via Uber Eats. The food is very good even after delivery. Well, we live about 1 mile away so delivery is really fast. I forgot to take photos of the sushi but it is very good.

Will I buy from them again ? Absolutely !“

“Vegetarian reviewer: I've been to this place and a few times and it's been a delight every time!

They have plenty of veggie options, along with sake and tempura. All the dishes are interesting and very flavorful, service is pretty quick as well.

I've tried the Veggie Tempura and Agedashi Tofu from the bites section. Both are delicious even though these are fairly simple dishes, as expected. Tempura is oily as expected and is something which I skipped the next time to try some of the many nicer items on the menu.

All the vegan sushis are awesome and I especially liked their Veggie Tiger Roll and spicy veggie roll. None of the ingredients, like cream cheese overpower the flavors - everything is well balanced and each ingredient stands out on its own. Yum!

It's a cute and small restaurant and they do not take reservations- only walk-ins. So I'd suggest going with some time in hand or going at an odd time. It wasn't too busy around 1:30 pm and we got a table for us pretty quickly.“

“Ooo this place is actually really good! Our team stopped over here for lunch and we were all very satisfied with everything. They also had some interesting yuzu alcoholic beverages that I would have loved to try if I were not headed right back into work.. maybe next time when we're back in this area again.“
