-
Great ramens with monstrous flavor, a good vibe and a menu with a lot to offer.
-
The karaage is the best I've had — tender, moist and packed with flavor, and the sauce is unreal.
-
The karaage ramen is on another level; it's my number one ramen spot in the country.
-
Best miso in San Francisco — I genuinely crave it.
-
The KO ramen has a great tonkotsu broth and is packed with meat; you get a whole rib!
-
Excellent, rich broth, moderately spicy, with elastic noodles — great balance.
-
I'm from Japan, and honestly the quality of every dish here is above what I had back home.
-
They even do a miso ramen with gluten-free yam noodles — thin, glossy and delicious.
-
The Jaeger (lamb skewer ramen) and the Gyozilla are both worth trying.
-
An adorably cozy, hidden-gem spot with fun atmosphere and attentive service.
