Good ramen, though minimalistic when it comes to protein, and gyoza dumplings. Authentic Japanese food.

Having lived in Tokyo I can vouch for this place to be authentic! Yuzu ramen was epic and the chashu was exactly like you get in Tokyo!

We ordered different kinds of ramen, and they all tasted pretty good. The prices seemed reasonable at first, but when I checked the bill, I noticed a 20% gratuity was automatically added plus a blank line for extra tips. I accidentally paid almost 40% in tips and had to go back to get it corrected.
No wonder there aren’t many customers. No matter how tasty the food is, I wouldn’t come back because of that policy.
Parking is also limited and usually packed, so it’s best to come early if you want a spot.

Regular size ramen was not enough to eat. The egg didn't come with the ramen, need to pay extra for an egg

The restaurant should consider changing its hours. Every time I’ve gone around 1:40, I’ve driven there only to be told that the only option was take-out. If that’s the case, why not just close at 1:30 and start cleaning from there? Just my two cents.
The food is good, though. They even have a yuzu ramen option, which isn’t offered at Ramen Hajime. I think the owner might also be working in the kitchen, and I’m not sure if this situation is fully noticed.

The vegan ramen was quite tasty, the broth was very flavourful! However, I felt that that the quantity of broth was quite less compared to the noodles as compared to other ramen's available there.
The vegan ramen wasnt spicy so had to get the spicy paste on the side

Amazing place for ramen and to come and relax with your friends. It's a dim lit room that's really relaxing to your eyes. It's really easy to order whatever you want. I got the ramen. It was delicious. I enjoyed the chicken broth and the pork meat. It was all delicious, especially the noodles. They were fresh. If you enjoy spicy, you can get some chili spicy paste and mix it with the broth. It would be really enjoyable to eat it. Highly recommend. Would come again to try more ramen.

I’ve been to this ramen shop many times. They even have Jiro-style ramen, which is really tasty! The miso ramen is especially good.
My child usually enjoys the shoyu ramen, and the restaurant is spacious and family-friendly. Today, I tried one of their limited-time ramen bowls!
I like ramen and was craving the Tonkotsu here. I have gotten this a few times and it always hit the spot. I'm also glad it's walking distance from my work.
Service has always been awesome here. The only thing i don't like is they blast their AC. It's so cold in here, I'm not sure why the AC is blowing up but i should be grateful. It's better than no AC.
It does get busy on a Friday lunch so prepare to wait a few minutes but the line moves fast.

This ramen joint in my neighborhood was a pleasant surprise! We had Tonkotsu and Yuzu shoyu ramen and both had amazing flavors. Their ramen is comparable to many other top ramen spots in bay area and even to places in JAPAN!

The skinny male server with glasses and a hat is extremely rude. Ruined the whole experience. Recommend a layoff. Recommend thinking carefully before going this place, you might get kicked out just because you sit a bit far from your table.

I was here with my family and ordered Tsuke men(dipping ramen), Salt Ramen, Taka Ramen with Gyoza combo. Everything tastes good. The staff are all super friendly. It's old but they keep the place nice and clean. The price is more reasonable than other Ramen restaurants in the area.

The food here is really great and flavorful. The waitress was attentive and helpful. I was surprised that drinks were served in plastic disposable containers at a restaurant. It is wasteful to do that. Also the bathroom wasn't very clean.
