Came in on a Wednesday night to it busy but not crowded. Sat right away and server was fast and got our orders in regular way instead of through QR code Everything was delicious and would come back again
I'm a big fan of ramen and always enjoy trying new restaurants, so I was excited to stumble upon Hinodeya in Newark. Located on a busy corner street, the restaurant has its own parking lot, which is convenient. We were a party of three and arrived before the dinner rush, so we were seated right away. Upon entering, we were greeted immediately and were able to choose where we wanted to sit. The restaurant is very clean, with dim lighting and a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. It's definitely a nice place to unwind and enjoy a meal. We ordered the Karaage Orange, Spicy Miso Ramen, Clam Ramen, and Spicy Butter Miso Ramen. Our food arrived fairly quickly, with about a 10-minute wait. Unfortunately, I really wanted to love the ramen, but it fell short of my expectations. The broth was quite bland and lacked the depth of flavor I was hoping for. The portions also felt on the smaller side, with not a lot of meat or other ingredients in the bowls. Considering the price, I didn't feel the quality and portion size quite justified the cost. I may come back in the future and try something different--perhaps another dish will change my mind. For now, though, I'll probably pass. I'm glad I gave it a try, but I've had better ramen elsewhere.
Very friendly staff. They were courteous to everyone who tried getting on the list or were waiting to be seated. The space is small and a little cramped but you have enough for you and whoever else you come with(depending on availability). I enjoyed the quality of the ramen, where this one is lighter and tasty. Some places make it thicker and harder to digest but even with my small appetite I ate a good amount! Will come back again.
The HAMAGURI "Clam" Ramen is definitely a huge standout on the menu! A light but punchy broth. So flavorful and tastes super clammy (in a good way). They even have a cold version during the summer. How refreshing!! We also really loved the appetizers here. I love how reasonably priced everything was. I recommend the Umami Brussel Sprouts and Takowasa especially.
We came here with some friends, the decor looked nice inside. You can tell they've definitely used an interior designer for the store. We were led to our seats and once we were given the menu, we started studying it meticulously. I got the HINODEYA "House" Ramen, my wife got the Beef Bowl "Gyudon", and our friend got a ramen with katsu in it. They asked me if I wanted my ramen mild, medium or hot in spiciness. I went with the medium option. I enjoyed my ramen. The broth was well made but I didn't notice much difference between the wheat noodle they've used versus normal noodle used in other shops. The portion was not big for its price and I was about 80% full from the bowl. When I tasted a bite of my wife's beef bowl, boy was I disappointed. They added way too much sauce and honestly I can't say this dish is good. The beef wasn't cut in the traditional way in how a gyudon should be and it turned out a little bit thicker which is a little weird for me. I would compared it to a Yoshinoya and the irony is that I actually like the beef bowl from Yoshinoya better at half the price? lol. Our friend shared a little bit of her katsu with us and we thought it was way too dry. Perhaps it's been sitting at the heat lamp for way too long... Overall, what I feel about Hinodeya is that they've definitely have some unique ideas in their dishes but the execution and consistency still needs to be worked on. I noticed that there were 4 different spicy level and I was a little curious as to what they were. It wasn't until I asked the waiter that they explained them to us. I was a little puzzled because this seems to be what they wanted to push but we just weren't told to us in our visit until way later... It's a 50/50 whether I'll come back or not. I think there are definitely improvements for a good ramen spot that people would crowd upon in the bay area for sure.
House ramen never misses, excellent broth to sip on upon arrival. The spicy tan tan ramen was heavy, good but would probably prefer not to have spice in my broth next time. The new fried gyoza had a nice crunch to it, but the sauce was a bit heavy, and would prefer the original gyoza next time. Great post workout meal! Appropriate attentive service. You can order traditionally via waiter/menu, or just scan the QR code on the table to minimize interactions. I like how they add new seasonal items on the menu and have a lot of options on the QR menu to accommodate various customer preferences. Note to self: the ramen bowl itself is filling enough, we had trouble finishing with 2 extra apps.
Good ramen spot! Located in a small lot with limited parking but local streets nearby. The restaurant is a little small but it looks like they're currently doing some construction. The restaurant was clean and had a good atmosphere. We ordered two spicy miso ramen and fried oysters. Our ramen came out first and I got spicy level 4 and my husband got 3. It wasn't spicy in our opinions but it was delicious nonetheless. Came with two slices of chashu and plenty of noodles. Wouldn't say it was anything extraordinary but a good ramen overall. The fried oysters were amazing and came with a Donkatsu tasting sauce. Not worth $11 though. It was piping hot and came with 5 small pieces. Overall, decent ramen spot. Think for the area it's good but definitely better spots out there. Service was good as well.
This is a big milestone.. as this is my ramen review #100!! I'm officially an obsessed Ramen Sheriff! I should've had way more since I was in Japan for a month, but I was just too busy enjoying myself. Sorry not sorry =P Now that I'm back home instead of walking 20k miles a day in the streets of Tokyo, I'm back to journaling the ramen bowls here. I really liked the wheat noodles here, this was the star. Very chewy and al dente. The broth for the house ramen was very nice, flavorful light dashi, really enjoyed it. The noodles and soup are done well in Hinodeya. My taste in ramen has evolved to lighter broths, so I appreciate the flavorful but light dashi broth here rather than the typical heavy tonkatsu broths they do here around the bay. The toppings however could be better. The chasu was tougher than I'd like, and the soft boiled egg was overcooked on the bottom. They both lacked flavor and could have more umami as well. My fiance got the clam ramen and they were pretty generous with the clams, but he thought it was okay. Service was very good. I was a little weary since the QR code to order asked for tip in the beginning of your order, which was weird. But it was great that they pulled through. Food came out instantly, minutes of ordering, and they were very prompt with requests. Ambiance was loud since it's a small restaurant. Especially when there are families with little ones. Overall, good/fine place for a casual ramen eatery. Nothing to rave about but decent to satisfy your ramen cravings, especially for light broths or clams.
Me and my lady come here atleast once a month. Very clean and welcoming. Always enjoy the food
This place was recommended to us and it did not disappoint. We came at around 12:30pm on a Sunday and we were lucky to be seated right away. The whole place was packed with people. It's a small place, but they were able to position all the tables and chairs so that there's room to move around. Ordering was convenient. We were able to scan the menu at our table and paid quickly remotely. Our food came out on a timely manner. We were able to try the Clam ramen, Hinodeya ramen, and the Tonkatsu. They were all delicious and very much to our liking. Presentation is something i noticed they take pride in. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted promptly, the decorations on the front entrance is what lured us in. The tables all had a tiny lamp that you can turn on and off. All the servers were wearing coordinated attire with the restaurant logo on it. They were all attentive to our needs and constantly filled up our water and took empty dish away when the table started to feel tight/crowded. All Ramen we tried had the WOW bursting with flavors. I highly recommend this place.
Came here for lunch as we were in the area. This would be my 4th Hinodeya. I like how they like to be a small parking lot. The restaurant itself is decently sized with the same color scheme as the others. Around 12:10pm on a Sunday, easy to get a table. QR code to order and pay. Waiters bring out food. I had to ask twice for toddler utensil and also a bowl. HINODEYA "House" Ramen - I got this and shared with my toddler. Plenty of noodles and I loved the toppings. The noodles were cooked just right. SPICY MISO Ramen - My husband got this. He was pretty disappointed as the two pieces of cha Sui was super fatty. Chicken Karaage - Good flavor but the breading was thick. Umami Brussel Sprouts - Good flavor but the Brussels were undercooked. Two unisex bathrooms in the back - clean.
Several weeks ago I stopped by here since I was working late and I was hangry. I knew Pho San Jose was most likely packed gauging by the hour, so, ramen will have to do (first world problems). The place was busy, and since it was just me, I sat at the bar. I see the Spicy Tan-tan Ramen is a limited release, so, ofc I'm going to order a bowl. Lvl 4 spicy, forgot the Japanese name for it, extra bamboo shoots, and I start to decompress. A couple minutes later, I'm feeling so much better. The menma wasn't from the fibrous part of the shoot, so that was a bonus. The broth, overall flavour and spiciness lvl: HELL YES! I probably could have been ok with lvl 5, but that would have detracted from the flavour of everything else. The noodles were not too soft or firm, Japanese al dente if you will. The ground pork had this sweetness, umami, and calming effect to it after a stressful day. ngl, it kind of reminded me of the longanisa from Taylor's Sausage in Oakland. I really want to try the other ramen, gyudon and tonkatsu, but the Tan-tan Ramen is limited release ;) When it's no longer available, I'll move on to the other menu items.
I fell in love with hinodeya when I first tried it out in San Jose. I love their restaurants. It's this cozy Japanese style restaurants. This location specifically has an outdoor patio as well so it's pretty spacious. You have two options to order, one via the QR code and/or with the servers. We ordered via the QR code and ordered the edamame sticks for our appetizer. I would say the edamame sticks need a little bit more salt but the consistency was perfect. I think the pot of hot teat they have is also pretty cute and their tea leaves were actually pretty good. I would say their ramen is more on the pricier side but it's definitely a tasty ramen. We ordered the tonkatsu and house ramen. And both ramen was really good. Their broth is probably one of the best broths I've ever had for ramen and their proteins are also made very well. The tonkutsu was cooked perfectly and the pork had great consistency. The servers would check on you multiple times which I appreciate and they definitely paid attention to their tables. They made sure everything was clean, everyone greeted you and over all just an amazing time and great food.

My husband and I stopped by last night for dinner as we wanted to try this new location. Parking: good amount of spots and the spots all have individual signs indicating that the spot is exclusively for the ramen restaurant. Ambiance: traditional Japanese ramen spot decor. The inside is clean and modern with wooden blinds, hanging lights over each table with Edison lightbulbs. There were bar seating and table seating. You scan the QR code on the table to order and pay. A good spot to enjoy a bowl of ramen with friends, a date or family. Service: good. We were given a pitcher of water and cups after getting seated. Ordering to food arrival time was short. Food: average. We ordered the gyoza, a bowl of Hinodeya house ramen and a bowl of summer snow cold ramen. The gyoza was a bit burnt and only 5 small pieces for 7 bucks. The house ramen is ok, I requested light oil and sodium but still found myself super thirsty later in the evening from drinking half of the broth. Portion size was adequate for both bowls of ramen relative to the price. My husband said his summer snow ramen was ok and was unique but he also complained about increased thirst from drinking the broth later in the evening. We are on the fence about returning for now. read more
As soon as you enter the restaurant, the waiter bangs a loud drum and the whole kitchen staff yells out "Irasshaimase!" And that's how I knew I was about to have a banger bowl of ramen. Ordered the spicy miso butter corn ramen, and the hinodeya ramen. Spicy miso corn ramen was good. Although I'm not sure if it was worth the extra $2 over regular spicy miso just for a handful of extra corn. The spice level was tolerable, like a 2/5 spice. The hinodeya ramen was also good. Not too salty, noodles nicely al dente. On the menu it came with spinach leaves which I found confusing, but it was nice that I could option it out. read more
I'll have the spicy miso ramen with EXTRA pork belly please! This was my first time coming here and I'm HOOKED. Their ramen was to die for! The flavor was 10/10 and the ramen noodles were made perfectly! The pork belly was absolutely delicious! I'm definitely coming back! The service was amazing too. read more

This place was great. From the decor to the small entrance and small eating area. It feels like you're in someone's home. The portions are the perfect amount, music is great and the lighting is great. Just gotta get rid of that bell on the door, messes with the vibe. read more

BEST RAMEN NEAR ME!!! Seriously, tastes just like the ramen I had in Japan. I got the veggie ramen - recommended to me by the server. It was so so good and so filling. Came with a lot of toppings and the broth was perfect. Ambiance is super nice and cozy- small restaurant by the side of the road. Greeted by a guy hitting the drum in the entrance (so fun!) Service was immaculate. All of the servers are so friendly and willing to help out. One of the servers (name started with an N- i forgot) was helping us out the whole time and checking on us to make sure everything was going smooth. Definitely will be coming back read more
Hinodeya will satisfy your ramen craving on that hot summer day, if you are like me. We stopped by this restaurant after the Newpark Mall. It is one of the most rated restaurants in the area, so that is why we wanted to check it out. For starters, we ordered the Karaage chicken and Peppers. The chicken came with a matcha salt. I didn't taste much of a difference between this and regular salt, but the chicken is still delicious. The peppers were really spicy. They say one out of ten will be spicy, but I felt like every one of them were spicy. It was still tasty though. Both ramen dishes were great. We ordered the miso butter corn and the house special. The hinodeya ramen's broth was exquisite. I liked that one a lot. The Miso Butter Corn Ramen had a hint of sweetness from the corn. I'd recommend the Hinodeya as it's the cheaper option and filling. Right now in the Summer, they do offer cold ramens, which is soy milk based. read more

My younger brother and I had heard about this new ramen shop and decided to check it out, it is now one of our favorite spots in the area! We've been to Japan before and walking into this restaurant we felt totally transported back there. Darker setting with intimate seating elevated the experience. Not an ideal spot for large groups, but plenty of tables for 1-4 people. I got their yuzu vegan ramen and it was so refreshing! My brother got the katsu ramen, and he loved it, he said the flavor was complex and umami. And who doesn't love umami?! Will come back again soon. :) read more

We ordered the Aburi cheese spicy miso ramen and beef bowl. The ramen was $20 and the bowl was $10. The bowl was well worth it since it filled us good along with the ramen. The Japanese mayo sauce on top was good along with a good amount of beef and rice. We gave it a star less because we thought the ramen was too expensive for $20. It was interesting that we had to pay right away when we are ordering our food. You must pay first to order. The service was nice. The restaurant could fit about 30-40 people inside. Very clean! read more
The sweet tofu?????? Unmatched. I could eat 100 sweet tofu, it was basically a dessert. It is actually sweet and doesn't taste like tofu at all. Service was kind and overall smooth with an order on the phone or to the waitress set up. The space of the restaurant is pretty small, maybe enough for 45 people total max. Regardless it's a nice enough place for a date or friend hang out. read more

Came here with a group of friends including a couple of their kids and had called ahead to make a reservation (since there were like 8 of us), and we all really enjoyed it! I got the Creamy Vegan Ramen with extra mushrooms, extra spinach noodles, and the spicy crunchy garlic on the side--this was the ramen I always got at the SF locations, which I haven't been back to in forever, and it was just as good as I remembered! I'm really thrilled there's a location closer to me now! The broth really is so creamy and flavorful, I made sure not to leave any behind, LOL. I hadn't had the spicy garlic before, and I have to say, that was a fun addition, although a friend who got the clam ramen with the spicy garlic underestimated the spice level and dumped the whole little container of the garlic in and then realized it was spicier than she thought (but she still ate it and said it was still good, she'd just use less next time). My husband got the yuzu ramen (he's on a yuzu kick at the moment) with ajitama (soy sauce egg) and also really enjoyed his meal. The friends with kids were also able to get small bowls for transferring some ramen and such to it for easier handling by the kids, which I thought was handy. I also ordered a hojicha, thinking it was a single serving, but it came out as a teapot with four or five cups, so we were able to share. There are desserts on the menu, but the group decided on getting bubble tea afterwards, so we didn't get to try any desserts this time. Big bonus for Hinodeya and larger groups is that they do the ordering via QR code and web service, so you won't have to worry about splitting the bill later unless you're ordering shareable appetizers etc. The service is friendly, although since you do most of your ordering through the web service, you don't actually interact with them that much besides getting seated, them delivering the food, or refilling your tea pot. The location itself has a nice typical ramen shop interior (I love the smoothed live edge wood table we got to sit at as a large group), and has an attached parking lot that is shared with some other shops. An ice cream truck stopped in the parking lot next to Hinodeya right as we were trying to leave, which made exiting trickier, but we were able to get out. I'm admittedly curious about the ice cream truck, but we were on our way to bubble tea with the same group of friends, so I wasn't about to stop and check them out, LOL. Hinodeya is a gem, and now that I know there's one that is easier for me to get to than SF, I'm sure we'll be back! I'm looking forward to the next visit! read more

i had tried this place a few times and thought it was just okay, but i recently tried the creamy vegan ramen and that was such a memorable dish that now has me craving hinodeya almost weekly! i fully agree with other yelpers who mentioned that it's good even for non vegetarians. the flavor is so unique and compliment each other well, with the squash, inari, kale, etc. their traditional ramens are also good and i like their gyoza as well. it can get a little tight inside the restaurant and the parking lot and you'll need to wait outside if there isn't a table available, but it's great to see this little spot staying busy. some logistics: you can order from your phone using the QR code at the tables and you'll enter your tip before you're served. i would recommend adding the free side of tabera crunch to go along with your ramen! it's not too spicy, which is great for me read more

Feels good to have another good ramen place in newark! Parking lot is small and shared with 711 but we had no problem with finding street parking. The inside of Hinodeya is small but the ambiance is great. Soft jazz music, cozy lighting, different seating options all made for a nice atmosphere on a Saturday night. It was busy but not so crazy that we waited longer than 10 mins for a table. You have the option of ordering through the app or with the wait staff; we chose the latter and the service was great! Quick and friendly and always making sure we had everything we needed. We ordered the chicken karage, yasai kakiage (? The vegetable croquette lol), and the takoyaki. Everything was so yummy and didn't feel too heavy for fried food. The chicken was really tender and everything loved the yasai kakiage. The flavor of the house ramen was delicious and not overly oily or salty. My mom really enjoyed her vegan ramen and the broth was super yummy! Great spot to check out in Newark :) read more
The biggest reason why I am rating this place 5 stars is for the takoyaki. The takoyaki is sweet, soft, and so so delicious! I crave the takoyaki here all the time. I love how I get to have a ramen place so close to my home. The inside is warm, cozy, and clean. It can get a little tough to grab the attention of the staff if its not too busy, but the service is generally quick and friendly. I'll be coming back whenever I'm in the mood for ramen or takoyaki! read more

Love the ramen here - thicker chewier noodles, which is what I like anyways! The broth is lighter and not as heavy as other places which is amazing! Also the soft boiled egg was cooked perfectly! We also got the takoyaki and chicken karage to start with. We were so stuffed after! You can order and pay directly from your phone and food comes out super fast! Perfect for a quick lunch bite !! read more
Finally a chance to try out Hinodeya Ramen in Newark, went on Sunday a little before noon (party of 7) and there was no line, got seated right away and service was attentive. Mobile ordering system (and payment upon ordering) makes it efficient. We ordered the gyoza, the takoyaki, clam ramens and house special ramens among the group. I had the clam ramen and its broth is on the lighter side, pretty generous on the clams and the ramen texture is chewy. The appetizers are small in portions. Overall, i enjoy this kind of ramen and broth, and will definitely come back to try other items on the menu. read more

Ordered the creamy ramen. Very excited because it has a vegan broth! Most ramen restaurants use a meat-based broth, so I had never tried official ramen before and had no idea what to expect. The size of the bowl was enormous! Everything in the soup was delicious, the servers were friendly and attentive (but not overly so), and the ambience was pleasant. Got spicy level 1 and it was a perfect level of spice. Would definitely recommend, and hope to visit again at a location closer to home. read more

Hinodeya renovated a KFC building, making an unique & unrecognizable building. H. Is a Japan origin ramen chain. Piano music in background. Seating inside via 12+ tables of various sizes. Parking available nearby in commercial strip. Order by QR code. A waitstaff happened by, took my order. One check-in later. Offerings: ramen, vegetables, side dish, small bites, rice bowls, sake, beers,.... Eats: Hamaguri (Clam) Ramen (20) -24 littleneck clams sourced from Asia. Clams Very tasty plucked from broth, slightly chewy. -ramen al dente. Dashi flavored unami broth from clams, garlic, green onions, butter, sesame seeds, red peppers. Top quality. Memorable. Unequaled. 4.5 stars doubt the other ramen would be as great. read more
We came on a weekday, and the place is small but still able to fit our baby's stroller. We ordered clam ramen, spicy ramen, and karaage. We're pretty satisfied with our meal. Both ramen are quite light but still flavorful. I don't feel salty after eating it. I had myself clam ramen, all the clams they provided were fresh! I was pleased about it. They make sure all the clams are open instead of giving you the closed ones. The karaage has a good texture to bite. The lot has limited parking and is right beside 7 eleven. read more

Came looking for a new ramen place to try. This place came up and had to come. The place is small even their parking space area as they share it with 7-11. They really maximize the table seating inside but you can have group seating for one big table so I would think you need to call ahead. Came here on a Friday evening and weekday and it was busy. Nice decor. They greet you very welcoming and with a bell! You can order by app or with the server. Service inside was difficult so we just ordered with the server and they are all very friendly and courteous. Their appetizers are decent price for the size but nothing too special. We tried their gyoza and fried oyster. We have tried their Hinodeya Ramen and Spicy Miso Ramen, and I have to say my fave is the Spicy Miso Ramen. I only got level 1 spiciness as it was spicy enough that I can taste flavor instead of all heat. . The miso broth is very good and not too thick. Noodles cooked just right. The pork marinated slices are good and lots of veggies. The Hinodeya was more a seafood broth which was not thick. It was ok. I will have to try the Spicy Butter Corn Ramen but corn is not my favorite to have in ramen. Glad this place is here. I like their service as food is served fast. Willing to try more items on their menu but so far so good. Will be back for more Spicy Miso Ramen. ;) [81R,2023] read more

Love it when you can waitlist on Yelp before you head out. Got there and seated promptly. It got busy quick, within 10mins it was full house. Great atmosphere with lots of seats, even it was full house, we didn't feel it was too tight. This was KFC next to St Edwards. Brought back many good memories. QR code order or ask for actual menu. Servers were polite, always smiling and we didn't have to ask, water was topped off quickly. Meanwhile dealing with door dashers in and out non stop. Appetizers were very good, each came with different sauce and slight touch to signify their own special dishes. Ordered the house special and miso cream corn level 3 spicy ramen. Wasn't too spicy to my taste so the server gave me a little container of chili oil and garlic paste to kick it up to my level. The house special broth is a clear chicken soup, so get the creamy miso if you wanted the heavy soup base ramen norm style. Lots of ingredients, I felt soup amount was little shy initially but it was just right. Most importantly not thirsty afterwards which means the soup is legit. read more
Friendly staff & super easy to order food from your phone and they bring the food & drinks right to your table. We ordered the shishito peppers for an appetizers cooked perfectly in a sweet & spicy oil. We also ordered the Soju samplers and they were very good. I had the spicy pork ramen & finished the entire bowl and slurped up the broth. The broth was good, I ordereda level 3 of heat & it warmed me up. Perfect for a freezing night. This place was packed on a Saturday night so be patient, we added our names to the waitlist and being 3rd in line we waited about 20-25 min or so. They have a little patio entrance with a bench but you can also just wait in your car as the system will text you when your table is ready. Will definitely be coming back soon! read more
I was SHIO-cked to see this new place pop up in Newark, and I RAMEN-ber seeing this place in SF before. So very happy to check this out as I hate going to the city nowadays. .:: FOOD ::. Hinodeya Ramen $16: wheat noodle with koshi in a light umami broth made with dashi and scallops, flavored with scallop and pork oil. Topped with chashu pork and menma, ajituke tamago, nori seaweed, green onion, baby spinach, sesame seed and red pepper. I thought it was ok! I did taste the different layers, but I expected more for some reason given the brand on this ramen. The flavors were a bit more subtle than expected. I was expecting more prominent complex flavors. .:: Service / Ambiance / Parking ::. Its very self service. You go in, scan QR code, order through app and pay at the time of placing order. The host though was very friendly and nice despite it being so self service. I came on a Sunday afternoon around 2 pm and no wait, seated at the counter area. The place definitely gives zen vibes. Peaceful music as you enter with plants, bamboo fencing on the exterior. Inside was dark wood tables. Parking was fairly easy with its own parking lot, next to 7-11. However, if its full I saw a lot of street parking available read more
So excited to have this ramen shop in the East Bay, easily one of my top ramen spots. Their clam ramen is delicious! The broth tasted very clean and kind of smokey. Noodles were cooked perfectly, not too hard or soft. They give you a lot of clams! I think I counted 24 in my bowl. The chicken karaage was crispy and juicy. For $10, I wished the portion was a little larger. read more
Decent ramen. The broths are a bit plain, not super flavorful, but I love the options and variety they have here. If you're on a specific diet, theh probably have an option for you (low carb noodles, vegan, vegetarian). yuzu ramen with tofu noodles - while it was refreshing I did feel like the broth was severely lacking flavor. It was almost watery. I added pork and spice to which helped but it needed some salt. However I really loved the sweet tofu and mushroom that it came with - although I'm not vegetarian I could definitely eat this dish without meat next time. Hinodeya ramen - much more flavorful but still not my favorite. Chashu and egg were solid. read more

Finally a legit ramen spot in Newark! I haven't been to the other locations but was so excited to see them open one near me. Restaurant is small with a small parking lot in the back. Very quick and efficient service. Everything we ordered was delicious! I'll definitely be a regular here. Clam ramen - sooo many clams!! I got mine spicy Vegetable tempura - so crispy and loved the dipping sauce Chicken kaarage - very juicy and flavorful and loved the matcha salt read more

It's always a good thing when we get another ramen option in our area - and not just any ramen, but Hinodeya! they have a few locations in SF, in Campbell and of course, Japan. it took me a couple of visits to appreciate the ramen, bc if I'm being honest, a black garlic tonkatsu ramen is my favorite. but realizing the difference in their style of ramen, I really enjoyed their house Hinodeya ramen which is a dashi broth made with bonito flakes and seaweed. it's not as rich and closer to a clear broth, but smoky and flavorful. that will be my go-to ramen order there from now on. perhaps my favorite menu item though is the yasai kakiage, or vegetable tempura. combined with the sesame dipping sauce, it's a definite must order. my kids always love the karaage -- can't go wrong with fried chicken. it's nice to see a known ramen brand close by. definitely keeping Hinodeya in the rotation. read more
Nice cute small place, replaced the old KFC and looks completely different inside! Small parking lot but enough. Was greeted and seated right away. They brought waters and water craft to us right away. To order you scan the QR code and put in your order and they bring the food really fast! Once they bring the food, that was it. No check ups or anything and had to go to the front to ask for togo containers. The shishito peppers were delicious! The spicy miso ramen was okay, the egg does not taste marinated and they only give half an egg. I would prefer a tonkatsu broth but they don't have that option and all their meat broths are made with scallops which I don't prefer. Not too much of a fan of this place, but they do have good quality ingredients. read more
I was craving some ramen and wanted a quick dinner on a weekend, and came across Hinodeya. The restaurant was relatively full, but there was no wait and still some seats available. You scan the QR code on the table to order, and then they bring you the food. I ordered a takoyaki, Hinodeya ramen, and an Aburi cheese spicy miso ramen. They let you customize your ramen with changing noodle type, changing some toppings, as well as soup flavor (ie. Less spicy). The takoyaki was good and had lots of bonito flakes, but was a bit pricy, as I couldn't really taste the octopus. The Hinodeya ramen was a bit disappointing as I was hoping the broth would be more flavorful as their flagship ramen. I did order less sodium and less oil since I wanted to be healthier, which could be the reason. I added the spicy crunchy garlic topping and felt it was much needed. I liked the cheese miso ramen, as I felt the cheese balanced the spiciness well and was an interesting combination with the soup. However, this dish was definitely on the pricier end compared to other ramens. Overall this place is worth a try for a quick dinner, but it's a bit pricey and I would only recommend trying the cheese miso ramen. Ranking at 3.5/5, rounding up to a 4. read more

First time here tonight. We almost left due to the long line but it's a cold and drizzly night and Ramen really would be good so we still went and joined their waitlist. However, there's a small bar seating area and since there were only 2 of us we sat at the bar. No waiting! Here are photos of our food. Every dish was satisfying and delicious! We're already planning on coming back to try their rice plates. Yes, it's that good! Service was pretty quick as well so probably wouldn't mind the wait next time we come as we would more than likely take the family. I also love the vibe inside. Simple decor and clean too so in my books a definite plus. read more

Do they accept reservations?
I don't believe so. We came on an off time so we were just able to walk in. I did see their option of a wait list here on Yelp.
