We stopped by Ippudo San Francisco right when they opened, so luckily there was no wait. The restaurant itself is nice and somewhat spacious, although the table for two can get crowded pretty quickly once all the food comes out. We ordered the Akamaru Modern Ramen and Spicy Shrimp Tempura. The ramen noodles were great, with a nice texture, and the broth was flavorful and satisfying. One thing to keep in mind is that the ramen doesn't come loaded with toppings. Items like the egg are extra, which can add up considering the restaurant is already on the more expensive side. The Spicy Shrimp Tempura was also good and made a nice addition to the ramen. Parking is probably one of the bigger challenges when coming here. It's San Francisco, so definitely plan ahead. The 5th and Mission parking garage may be a good option if you don't want to spend too much time looking for street parking. Overall, good ramen, great noodles, and a nice atmosphere. It's definitely on the pricier side once you start adding toppings and appetizers, but we enjoyed our meal.
(+) Scan the menu, website offers more details on the dishes. They do have physical menus but they don't list as many of the ingredients. (+) Party of 4 were seated quickly on a Thursday night. It was a shared / communal table, but that was fine. Rather that than wait extra long for our own table. (+) Chicken karaage, giant pieces. Crispy outside, tender inside. (+) Nice vibe, most people seemed happy with their food. I really liked my yuzu shoyu as I prefer that base over a creamy broth. Only negative was no refill on the iced green tea.
I dropped in here for lunch right before I had a flight to catch, and to be honest, I've already decided I'm coming back. Because I was in a rush, speed was everything, and they absolutely delivered - my ramen was hot and ready on the table within 5 minutes of ordering! The service was incredibly fast, and the staff was amazing throughout. Beyond the efficiency, the food itself tasted wonderful. The restaurant's location is excellent, and the interior is beautifully planned and decorated, giving it a really nice vibe. As a huge plus, they have multiple vegetarian options on the menu. This makes it an ideal spot for groups where some people want vegetarian dishes and others want non-veg options. If you need a delicious, top-tier bowl of ramen - even on a tight schedule - this is the place to go.
One of my favorites Ramen locations which happens to be near by the Powell Bart station. Once inside you will be pleasantly surprised after passing the curtains to see a seating of tables and a vibrant ambiance. We ordered edamame for the table, it comes with a yuzu like salt. Which trust me you reaaaallly need to love yuzu otherwise just eat it without the salt. I ordered the Karaka Spicy, which I would admit could have been spicier but that is just a preference. The broth is always delicious, hearty and the noodles where also, extremely tasty. The service is always good, they move fast, and they are always ready to make any recommendations if needed.
Windy and cold in SF tonight, so we decided on Ippudo ramen before watching Supergirl at the Metreon. The host asked if we and another party of 4 wouldn't mind sharing a long table, so both parties agreed. The place was extremely busy!! Our orders were taken pretty fast, and the steaming bowls of ramen came out shortly after. The tonkotsu broth brought back memories of Japan where Ippudo ramen shops were everywhere, in the malls or train stations....yes, Ippudo is a very popular chain. And here it tastes as good!! The menu has expanded over the years, but we just wanted a quick dinner before the movie so we all ordered the same thing. Sharing a table must be confusing for the waiters, they kept asking which party had what ....
Food: this place made me love ramen! Every dish was delicious and that is rare in a restaurant Service: wonderful service Ambiance: felt like I was in a lux space.
Came on a wednesay afterw work and no wait. Flavor of the broth is fire. The edanamae taste like beans so no complaint there. Close to Bart station
100/10 would go again. I can eat that seasoned cucumber everyday, and I don't even like cucumbers. The Karaka Spicy Ramen was a fan favorite-- broth was perfect and the poached egg was a must making it even more rich n creamy. The bun medley (tempura shrimp was my fav) and spicy chicken karaage was a great way to get this delicious dinner started. The ambiance made me feel like I was in Japan again. Overall a great experience!
Great, fast service. Great, chill ambiance for dinner. The ramen was good, but was probably missing a bit of flavor. I loved the genmaicha tea.
My friend took me here around 9pm (which is an hour before closing time). There was no one at the front of the store but we got seated right away when they realized we were there. We were able to order super fast and it came out quickly too. And gosh damn was the food good because I came back twice with different friends. I got the yuzu and yes the citrus flavor was strong. I loved it! Overall, good pick to bring friends and family for interior development aesthetic and food. Cons: Parking is hard to find since it's lodged in between streets and prices are a bit expensive.
Service and Staff: - We waited about 10 minutes and were asked if we wanted an individual table or if we were okay with a community table (we went with the community table) - Our server was nice - we were put off a bit though from a random staff member that came over and started very loudly telling us it would be $4 if we wanted to add more spice to our ramen. This communication was loud, repetitive, and unnecessary - Scan the QR code at your table to view the menu. A server will then come and take your order Food and Drinks: - Sake: flavorful and smooth - Dragon Tantan: the sesame broth was flavorful and this bowl definitely came with a kick of spice from the Szechuan flavors - Spicy Miso: another spicy ramen dish punched with flavor - Yuzu Shoyu: fun mix of flavors between the shoyu and the citrusy yuzu. Not your typical ramen flavors Miscellaneous: - Good for groups up to about 6 people - Bathroom is located in the back of the restaurant - Fairly loud given the amount of tables in the restaurant
Great ramen and beautiful restaurant! When you first walk in, you don't see the seating area, but when you're guided back, it's so spacious. There are many tables and also shared tables if you have small parties and are open to it (they double check if you're okay with that!) We got the karaage and each a bowl of ramen. The karaage pieces were huge and I enjoyed them, definitely filling. I got the yuzu ramen with their spicy ball on the side, which was a great decision. The spiciness really brought out the yuzu flavor in my opinion and was so unique.
Came here after a long day at the Super Bowl experience. We did a walk-in for four. The wait for a table was 20 mins or we can share a large table with random people and be seated immediately. We were hungry. We went with the large shared table. Pleasantly, there was more than enough room. There were at least 1-2 seats in between the three groups on each side that were there- a solo diner, a small family of 3, and my group of 4. I ordered the Karaka Spicy, my bf ordered Akamaru Modern, his sister ordered Miso, and I don't remember what her friend got- I think it was also Karaka spicy. My bf and I ordered the Treasure plate on the side to share and a side of spicy paste because I know Japanese spicy is barely spicy (from someone who grew up eating SEA spicy). Karaka Spicy had a nicely balance tonkotsu mouth feel and pork flavor. Broth was a little salty. I was correct to assume that it wasn't spicy because I used half of the side of spicy paste and I still didn't think it was spicy enough. Chashu was cooked fine. Notes: - I wished I would've asked if they could swap the thin noodles for the thick ones. I love the chew thicker noodles provide. - Noodles were cooked al dente. Akamaru Modern tasted very similar to Karaka spicy without the spicy. My bf used the other half of the spicy paste as dip for his toppings. He enjoyed it. Miso was a lighter broth (obvi) with a good umami flavor and was not watered down. Solid. She loved it. I have never seen her finish a whole bowl of ramen before. There was a server in training that took our order with the help of the trainer- he did great. Staff was attentive with our waters. Bussers were also quick to notice and remove empty plates and bowls regularly making for an easy clean up after we leave and kept the shared table clutter free. Interior was modern, but casual. They had an expansive menu with vegetarian choices, sushi, buns, karage, etc. and a surprisingly large array of alcohol. I would def like to be back to try some drinks.

Great food Good amount Portions for the food Service was great Will definitely come back again read more
Me and my friend went during Pokémon Worlds/XP so my experience probably isn't the same as someone that goes on a week that didn't have an event. But food was average, it wasn't mind blowing but it wasn't terrible. Service, however, is the main reason I gave it a 3 stars. When it's crowded I'm used to putting my name down on a list but at first it didn't look like they had a list so me and my friend lined up and then later we heard someone behind us say they put their name down and us and the group in front of us were like ?? Turns out they keep the list with them and then go by occasionally to get names but in that case I felt like they should have put a note about it so it felt very unorganized and even when we were seated they kept walking past us so it was hard to get their attention to order and get the bill. Ambiance was loud but like I mentioned before it was during an event and this was one of the closer restaurants so a lot of attendees went for convenience. read more

Beautiful restaurant - you walk through the paper wall to get to the dining area, and it feels nice and private back there. I was really impressed with the overall design. I got the miso ramen. It was really good, but not on the same level as some of the other top ramen spots in SF. Prices are reasonable, and the service was great. Overall a solid ramen option! read more

First time I went to the sf location since the first location in Berkeley opened 6 or so years ago. Staff were friendly and the food was good. We got seated and served quickly. I got my shoyu ramen because I like to compare this with all other ramen shoppes. It was good and solid but nothing strikingly out of the ordinary. Noodles perfect texture Broth has enough umami Porkx slices good Perfect medium boiled egg Love the bamboo shoots Oh and it's also convenient to have the baskets next to my table to put my coat a shopping bags. read more

Came here about 45 minutes before closing and was seated within 5 minutes. I ordered a beer, the Akamaru Modern, and a side of corn. The beer was cold and crisp, and the corn was super tasty--I loved the Japanese-style seasoning on it. I don't know if it was just the long day of traveling, but the ramen really slapped. The broth was rich without being too heavy, and the meat was tender and delicious. Some ramen bowls can feel a little too rich for me, but I finished this entire bowl in 10 minutes. Loved this chain, solid location, and I'd definitely come again. read more

Came in as a last minute idea searched up out and gave it a shot had not been more than satisfied and glad I chose this spot very short time weight and super fast service there KARAKA SPICY bowl was 10/10 definitely would recommend anybody will come back again next time in town read more
I quite enjoyed the ramen. Got the modern tonkatsu, which i liked, and my husband got the shoyu (he thought was decent, not amazing); tried three buns cause it was happy hour; i liked the pork the best, and my husband liked the chicken the most. We both agreed the shrimp one was subpar. I liked the vibes too. My complaints: to add an egg, it was $4... I didnt realize it was the price of like two at any other restaurants until I saw the bill cause the waiter just asked if I wanted one (i thought it would be max $3 and even that is really pushing it). That was my fault for not double checking though. The service was really slow for a ramen joint. Employees were friendly but service was pretty underwhelming read more
We thought it was a pretty good ramen joint. We definitely liked the restaurant aesthetic and the service was great. The ramen itself was tasty. We got the classic and also the spicy. Both were good and we liked the noodle texture. Definitely had that shin sen gumi hakata ramen noodle feel. The broth was good too. We got one of each of the appetizer buns but thought they were just ok and we could have passed on those. read more

Ippudo was kind enough to accomodate our group of 6 before closing time. They said we wouldn't be able to order appetizers which was okay because we were only interested in getting their ramen anyway. Their ramen was perfect for a cold night out in SF. If we weren't so rushed (which was obviously our fault), we could've enjoyed the restaurant a little better. It was definitely an elevated vibe from your typical ramen restaurant. Can't wait to come back again and try other things on their menu. read more
Absolutely fantastic his is exactly what I want in a great ramen and funny enough the recommendation came from chatgpt. I got the spicy ramen which was a flavor bomb of spicy and savory. I loved the open prep area, and the service here is amazing. They are not messing around. Ramen is what they do. Don't let the check in area fool you. This place is big, and the eating area is amazing. read more
On a cold day, I was really craving ramen and found Ippudo just a short walk from our hotel--perfect timing. I ordered the classic ramen along with karaage and takoyaki, and everything was absolutely delicious. The ramen was rich and comforting, and the sides were just as satisfying. The space was spacious and comfortable, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy the meal. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back. read more
First time coming to Ippudo close to home. I've only had it in New York. It doesn't disappoint. Always good cocktails and ramen. Ramen hits the spot on a cold and rainy day in the city. Came here with family on a Sunday afternoon during happy hour. We shared a bottle of yuzu sake. I had a delicious Japanese gin cocktail. My family shared the cucumbers and bao bun trio as appetizers. I had a basic shiromaru ramen but it was delicious. The broth is so flavorful. Will be back. read more
Came here on a cold night with colleagues after an event. I liked Ippudo in NYC and figured this would hit the spot. The place opens up much bigger than what you see when you first walk in. Between the first glass doors is a small sign-in/waiting area. Afterwards, you walk through some cloth barriers and it opens up like magic for a giant space. Pretty cool. The food was just solid. I fully admit I'm a thick noodle person, so these thin Hakata Ramen noodles aren't usually my favorite. That being said, the broth usually sells it for me. It was just hitting okay. We also ordered the karrage chicken, which came out a little dark...borderline burnt. Staff were solid and attentive enough. read more
Stopped in this place on a busy Saturday and we were glad to see that they were turning tables fairly quickly and were able to get us in quick. I was very impressed with how accommodating they were with kids. The first place I've ever been to that gave us all the kid plateware/silverware. It made it very easy. Unfortunately i felt like the ramen wasn't my favorite in the bay. The classic tonkotsu was just alright, but the spicy Karuku was better. Pro tip though: order extra noodles. It is totally worth the $3 and can feed nearly another person. We also did enjoy the bun sampler! Food came out quick and they had good seating for groups also. A fun date night spot but wished the ramen was a little better. read more
Cute spot tucked in near Union Square. Go through a curtain and you get to a beautiful dining room. Had a whole party order various things. I got the Bonnie Bonito with Karaage and extra chashu. Rich broth, gave me life and more. You can really taste the umami from the bonito flakes in the broth. Immaculate. The karaage was juicy and crispy, but wouldn't be on my top renditions ever tasted. The pork buns however were done well. While QR codes carved on wood are cool, can't really find the menu on Yelp without it. While the prices are a bit steep for the portion size (the extra charge for an egg was a bit much), I'd say it's a good default reliable spot for ramen provided you know what you're getting into. read more
Cute, hidden spot tucked behind a curtain, it's super unassuming but way fancier than their other locations. We came for happy hour, though honestly the discounts were minimal, like $2-$3 off at most. The bao medley was amazing and definitely worth it, and the ramen was really tasty too. There are plenty of vegetarian options, which is great, but I did notice they're a LOT more expensive than the meat options. Prices are a bit on the high side overall for what you get, like, an egg alone costs $4. Staff were fairly friendly, which made the experience nice. Overall, a cute spot with good food, just keep an eye on the prices. read more

The space is very nice. Behind a curtain and well decorated. Definitely a casual ramen spot still in the fidi area. The staff are attentive and nice. Went for lunch with a few coworkers. We got the triple bao. The shrimp was a bit lackluster but the chicken one had a good amount of meat and flavor, was definitely the favorite of the baos. My main gripe comes from the spicy ramen. The flavor is good, though not that spicy, wish there was an option to make spicier. The noodles were a very nice al dente. My issue was with the size and toppings. For 23$ there being two thin slices of pork and none of the other toppings rubbed me the wrong way. No mushrooms, bamboo shoots, corn, nori or anything. The other ramen did have some additional toppings and were cheaper as well. While it's a decent bowl of ramen I just don't see myself coming back. read more
I came after work on a Monday and there was plenty of seating available. Staff are quick and food comes out quick. I ordered the Bonnie bonito tsukemen. It was good. I wish there was more meat since this bowl was $23.00. My group also ordered the shiromaru classic and yuzu shoyo. Everyone finished their food. My booth seating could have been more comfortable. The leg of the table was awkwardly close to the booth, making sitting slightly uncomfortable. read more
We went to Ippudo for a work dinner, which is always a great way to try a new place and a variety of options. All of the sushi rolls we ordered as appetizers were great. I ordered the chicken karaage over rice as my entree - and it was nicely fried and super delicious. Looking forward to coming back to try more of the menu. read more
First time visiting Ippudo San Francisco. My friends and I went on a Monday night. There was no wait and the inside was fairly buy. We were immediately seated and able to scan the QR code to get the menu up. I got the classic ramen, but my friends got the others. The inside is dark. The staff is very nice and helpful. They kept refilling our water. The wait for food was reasonable, or 10 minutes almost. I love the ramen! The inside was clean. The napkins are really nice. I'll have to come back to try the others. read more
If this review was only based on the food, I'd give it a 3/5 but service bumps it to a 4/5. We arrived 30 minutes before closing but they kindly accommodated us and gave us exceptional service! Our waitress was so friendly! I got the Nirvana Classic Ramen and it was delicious, but pricey for the smaller portion. Also $4 extra for an egg is crazy...I wasn't paying attention to the prices and said yes when they asked if I wanted to add one, so that's on me though. We also got the Takoyaki, Spicy Tuna Roll, and Abura Chashu Rice - all yummy! Ambiance leans more elegant (but no dress code) with soft lighting and cool decor - there's a huge abstract tree installation set in the middle of the room going up to the ceiling, very cool. As for service, we really appreciated how attentive the waitstaff was towards us, especially given how close to closing it was. Also multiple of them complimented our outfits which was very sweet hehe. read more

May I ask. How the happy hours work?

No, get there early. If you’re not there when they call your name, they will give away your spot.
Are there vegan options on their dinner menu? It doesn't have to be ramen.
Yeah they have two vegan ramens, I like the akamaru veggie the best. The veggie ones come with different noodles that don't contain egg.
What's the best time to go for lunch? Are they crowded if we go for late lunch like 1/2pm?
No, we got here around 2 on a Sunday and there were only a few parties here

There's one ramen on the menu that has a mixture of the porks an fish stock.
No phone number or website. Is this location still in business?

Do you guys open on Christmas Day? Any reservations?
Not sure about Christmas Day but they don't take reservation
Can someone confirm that their eggs is now hard boiled and not semi-translucent on the inside?
You request the egg the way you want it.
Does the SF Ippudo offer a gluten-free option, like the New York ones do? A friend of mine has a gluten allergy.
I've inquired numerous times but they currently do not.
Since there are no reservations to get seated, do you just write your name down on a list and wait to be called?
You'll wait in a Disneyland like line until the hostess asks for your name, she'll call you when it's your turn to be seated.
