IPPUDO SAN FRANCISCO

Got their Shiromaru classic ramen and it was incredible, I really enjoyed the broth especially adding some chili powder and didn't think it was too salty! We also ordered the karaage, which was fried well but not flavorful enough for us.

Came here after a movie at the AMC Metreon and had no wait and got seated immediately!

Good:
- Food arrived so fast! We got our stuff 10 min later
- Loved the tsukemen and the noodle and broth went together so well - dipping ramen is my favorite
- The mazemen was a highlight as well - lots of flavor despite not having broth too - I think the sauce for this was even better than the dipping noodles
- Vibes are cool, it's a sleek modern interior and very clean

Bad:
- Pretty packed inside!

Overall I liked the place for a date night vibe, and the noodles are sooo good.

Great Ramen. They have a lot of vegetarian options. The soup’s flavor was strong and the noodles were thick n chewy. The place was packed on a Monday evening. Nice tasteful seating.

The spicy karaka ramen was flavourful and I especially loved the chashu: Thinly sliced and continued with the strong flavour.

The broccolini was a really nice starter as well.

Both bowls of ramen we got were delicious. But between the Akamaru modern and the Yuzu Shoyu, the later was definitely more unique. A salty fish broth flavor that paired well with the chicken cut.

The atmosphere was excellent! However, the server wasn’t very attentive or kind. The food needs improvement. Considering this was IPPUDO, I expected my eggs to be warm and fresh, but they were cold. (Eggs are extra charges)

Strange that they could not accommodate substitute from pork to chicken for charsu when it’s served on the side anyways. The pork charsu was incredibly fatty and the boar taint was INTENSE. My friend and I had to discard all the pork to finish our meals. Would have been such an easy substitution to make but they were unwilling.

Very tasty and flavorful ramen but one of the waitress ( older women) was extremely rude and impatient to us. We were hurried to decide on our menu.

Always such a pleasure to eat in this restaurant.
Ramens are the best in town in terms of flavor !
The place is fashionably decorated, and the bar is so beautiful too.
