Taishoken Ramen is a well-known downtown San Mateo restaurant celebrated for its consistent and flavorful comfort food. The menu features a variety of ramen options, including spicy ramen and veggie ramen with mushroom and yuzu broth. The broths are fresh and flavorful, and the noodles are thin and fresh. The restaurant also offers appetizers like chicken karagee and calamari, which are highly recommended.
The service is polite, efficient, and quick, even on busy evenings. The restaurant is often full, and reservations are recommended to avoid long waits. Customers praise the restaurant's friendly and helpful staff, as well as the warm and welcoming atmosphere with clean, modern decor and wooden furniture.
The restaurant's specialty dish is the ramen with soup on the side for dipping. Customers particularly enjoy the Tokusei Tsukemen, with its rich and flavorful broth and good portion of noodles. While the egg is praised, some customers find the chashu a little dry. The yuzu flavor in the veggie ramen could be stronger, but overall, Taishoken Ramen is a top choice for ramen enthusiasts and those seeking a laid-back, authentic Japanese dining experience. The selection of alcoholic beverages is also a nice touch for those looking to enhance their meal.
