We got the chicken paitan and the spicy music ramen with the calamari to start. The calamari was crispy and fresh. Really good batter and a perfect size for 2. We loved both of our ramen orders.
For a Saturday night, we barely had to wait. Joined the wait list at around 7:45 pm and were seated at the bar almost immediately. You get to watch the kitchen while seated at the bar. Each table and bar seat had a QR code where you can order. Saw the kitchen immediately work on our food and we were served quickly. Ended up with a $55 bill plus tax and tip. Proper SF pricing, but it was worth it.
Lovely ramen place overall!!! Another open kitchen concept where you can see the food in the works. I love the ordering system here, you view the menu/place your order and pay all through the QR code prompt. It was steadily busy when we went in but food came out hot and quickly for sure. The chefs decided our chicken thighs in the soy sauce ramen they had given us were too small so we were given an extra one each just in case which was super kind but definitely not needed!! The calamari was my favorite thing as usual.
This was our first visit to this cute ramen joint. It's pretty simple, you go on, scan the QR code and order through your mobile phone. They have chicken ramen and it is quite excellent. The chicken was marinated and fell off the bone easily. The broth was savory and light. Our food came out fast and the staff was super nice. You can also purchase a gacha coin for the machine and win some cute prizes. Yay for the Haribo Gummy clip.
Very cute little spot for delicious ramen. They got something for everyone on the menu. I tried something a little spicy my friend got something akin to chicken noodle soup and they were both delicious creamy and filling. I'm glad I didn't miss their salads too because they're ginger dressing was out of this world. I would definitely go back for another visit to try some other options on the menu. I also love that they had some sidewalk dining available.
We arrived around 7pm on Monday, and there were still many tables open. We chose to sit outside since it looked really packed indoors and there were heating lamps outside. You can order at your table and pay as you order on the QR code link, which makes it easy for everyone to order their own meals if they wanted. As an appetizer, we ordered edamame, crispy wings, and the Nojo Fries. The nojo fries were so crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside- everyone loved them. The crispy wings were also delicious and juicy on the inside. For some reason, the edamame was deshelled and I didn’t prefer it that way. For mains, we ordered the Tan-Tan Spicy Miso, Tomato Ramen, and the Shio Ramen. All of them were amazing but I have to say that the Tan Tan was my favorite. It had so much flavor and the ground chicken was delicious. I’d certainly come back again.
Great spot for a date night, casual dining, or even a quick stop to eat! Asked for seating of 2 and quickly was brought to the bar. QR codes are provided at tables for quick and easy service, whether your party chooses to order all together or individually.
Noju Fries, was not too impressed with as it didn’t feel too unique.
Tan-Tan Spicy Miso Paitan, ordered as is with no modifications. Creamy broth but the noodles were better! Feel like I have a high spice tolerance but those who don’t typically deal with spice would be fine ordering as is!
No music played in restaurant but it’s not like I heard crickets! Being downtown, this spot had a lot of traffic in and out of the restaurant but doesn’t interfere with your conversations!
Arrived at about 6pm during the week so was peak times for traffic on the streets and in the
Due to location, I may recommend to take public transportation because it was so difficult to find parking!
May be biased, but can’t say it’s my #1 in the city!
The ramen tastes good and the portion are big, and they are not cheap. The service was great. However we found the self checkout can be tricky.
I was pleasantly surprised by this ramen restaurant because normally I like pork based broth and this restaurant has chicken based broth.
In the signature ramen, the broth was flavorful and rich and the chicken meat was tender and juicy and huge too! Highly recommend! Add their house made spicy sauce for additional flavor.
The chicken nanban is also a must get, I was so surprised at how juicy the fritters were and wanted to order another one for the table.
I had a great experience when dining here. I was greeted and brought to the table. There is a QR code on the table so that everyone can order on their own with their own credit cards or you can all order at once on your phone. If you are sensitive to spiciness, make sure you put the oil and chili on the side so you can control how spicy you want your meal. If you want to order an item for to-go, make sure you let someone know so that they don't accidentally plate it. They were so nice and attentive when water was low and when we accidentally dropped our chopsticks haha. Thank you for your great service Mojo Ramen team.
Love the vibe, was taken aback by a $20+ bowl of ramen but definitely worth the price. Although the signature bowl was amazingly rich and filled with lip coating umami goodness, the Shio ramen was actually the winner for me. Perfectly balanced and nuanced broth, not too salty, each sip inviting another to tease out the different layers of flavors. Mmmmmm delishyus, kiss mah teeth.
Ate here on 1.27.2023. Got the Nojo Fries, Soy Sauce Ramen, and Shio Ramen. The fries were very delicious - crispy and warm with sweet and slightly spicy sauces drizzled on top. Both ramen had rich and flavorful broth with delectable protein - chicken leg in the Soy Sauce Ramen and chicken meatballs in the Shio Ramen. It feels a bit too pricey but overall, I enjoyed it a lot.
Met up here with some friends, first time SC visit and a friend told me I had to had ramen. The friends are locals and decided on this spot to take us. A party of 4 with reservations were seated within ten minutes. We were not provided menus, we sat outside and scanned barcodes for access to the menu. We took our time
Ordering, and online the order process was quick and we paid for our food as we ordered, which was nice as we didn’t have to figure out to split a tab. The food arrived promptly and was good. All the appetizers were tasty. We got the Calimari, edamame, Goyza and shishito, and noju fries. All were delicious and worth it.
I ordered the ten ten ramen for dinner. It was yummy, but the noodles were overcooked and the broth was NOT spicy.
Overall I enjoyed my experience, but if SF is supposed to be good at noodles this place ain’t reppin right. Maybe I went on an off night. Ippudo is still the best ramen I’ve had.
We were looking for a restaurant in the neighborhood. Neither of us had been here before and it looked interesting. So glad that we decided to come here. We sat outside and even though it was a typical foggy night it was quite toasty under the heating lamp. We both ordered the Shio (salt) ramen with chicken meatballs. It was not too salty. I love the creamy broth. The shishito peppers were massive! It does get busy but the tables turnover quickly.
I got shio ramen and the broth was excellent!
Ramen broth is deliciously rich and savoury. Noodle texture and chew on point. The meat on the slow braised chicken leg was fall apart, but I found it a bit dry.

My friend and I went there for the first time because he wanted to try out this ramen place. We waited for 5-10 minutes to get our table. Both indoor and outdoor sitting were available, we decided to sit inside because it was quite windy out there. The order process was simple, we just needed to scan the QR Code to order what we wanted.
We ordered some appetizers, Edamame (soybeans flavored with salt), Yuzu Miso Cucumber, and Nojo fries. Edamame is one of my favorite appetizers in Japanese restaurants (must order). It was good in general. The cucumber was a bit salty. I really liked the Nojo fries because the fries and Japanese okonomiyaki sauce and red pepper powder mixed were very tasty, and I had them put the mayo on the side. I ordered the Tomato Paitan and my friend got the Soy Sauce Tori Paitan. I tried out both broths, I would say they were both a bit salty for me, but the noodles were pretty good. They served the food pretty quick. I guess I will go back to this place next time and will recommend it to people who like ramen.
Food is great! Chicken is juicy and tender. Hard to tell if the broth is rich or just salty but tasted really good. Noodle itself is on point. Food is a 10/10. The place is a little chaotic and service can be improved but I think food is what most people come here for.
