Wow! What a nice place to get a ramen or banh mi. The OG spicy pork is the most popular and it was a work of art. You can order it with spice on the side which was nice. The area is quite quaint and a nice place to sit and enjoy a sunset ramen. The staff was friendly and checked on us regularly. Seating outside really made the mood. Thank you Ramen Cafe, you folks have a great thing going.

Wow! I don't really love ramen to much but this place was so good! First of all their edema-me was so delicious. But then i got the bah- mi I think that's how you pronounce it , was so good and little spicy! I totally recommend and my server I think sienna was so cute and sweet and I will definitely be coming back! Also great ambiance and music!

This evening I visited Ramen Cafe with the hopes of enjoying a great meal based on the Yelp reviews. Rather than getting a good meal I got nothing but disappointment. First of all, they took a very long time to serve our food. Second, it was luke warm at best. Third, the noodles were clumped together like a cookie. Will never visit again. I wish there was a choice to leave no stars.

Great ramen. Perfect customer service . ordered 2 Spicy Chicken Ramen and it was perfectly spicy. the portions were very filling. I also thought this wall of notes is pretty cool.

Such a gem! Great music and ambiance, quick service and delicious food! We can't wait to come back. We loved the 50/50 pork ramen and pork bahn mi!

Ordered Og pork ramen with shoyu and vegetarian tofu ramen. We sat outside and asked for the heater to be turned on but it was broken. Well that's OK we will get warmed up by the hot soup, so we thought. The ramen soup came in somewhat lukewarm and was unflavorful. I asked the waiter to reheat it but that kind of ruined the texture of the noodles. I felt I was eating instant noodles. Overall we felt underwhelmed by the whole experience. Will not return.

This is my favorite ramen place in San Clemente the food is great, service is amazing and the whole vibe of the place is very pleasing. When we went to get ramen they ran out of chicken but compensated by giving us dumplings for free! The service and food are off the charts.

Delicious food here. They explained the vegan options and allowed us to customize. Extremely well maintained restrooms and kitchen looked very clean and organized from the open window. We tried this while traveling and would love to go back there.

omg ok, i get nervous about getting ramen to go cuz sometimes the quality gets compromised but that was not the case with our ramen from The Ramen Cafe!I got the 50/50 broth, so tasty! The noodles and all other fixins' we're separated which was nice and kept it from being soggy when i got it home. My husband got the Tonkotsu broth and liked it but he said he's definitely going to go for spicy next time since that's more his palate. Edamame was good. Garlic noodles were good, probably best when served fresh but i ended up mixing them in with my soup.Pickup was fast and easy. Hoping to dine in next time, the vibe inside is so cute and very san clemente surf town chic. Overall very good experience.
First and last time coming here. Got spicy wontons, two orders of garlic noodles and four drinks. The dry wontons priced at $12 were the size of a quarter. Garlic noodles were bland. To top it off the cups to all 4 drinks had ill fitting lids so they dripped all over the car on the way home.

I am at this ramen restaurant right now! I watched the clerk make to go ramen for the customers: add some hot water, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 1 scoop of unknown powder in the to go box. He used scoop taste soup put in his mouth, then put it in a to go jar and stir it a few times, and taste the soup again! Then put other ingredients and noodles! God‼ ️In the future, anyone who dares to order this meal will be a warrior!
