The food was not bad for sure, but the service was so rude! My mom and brother came for dinner on a Wednesday. We shared two salads and a chicken karaage, and each got a ramen. The chicken karaage was my favorite part of the meal; juicy, crispy, well seasoned, and piping hot. The aka ramen was good but very salty and not as rich as I'd like. Also, it wasn't as hot as I thought it'd be. The maze soba here was pretty solid! Salads were refreshing and flavorful. There seemed to only be one worker when we went. She had attitude from start to finish. Kept asking us if we were ready to order when we weren't and walked away aggressively each time. My mom asked for extra napkins and she slammed them on our table?! Not sure what her problem was, but it made the overall dining experience awkward and unpleasant. The place itself was clean with anime music blasting in the background.
Ramen Arashi is in the strip mall and there are plenty of parking (just need to walk a little). I ordered a black garlic oil ramen and chicken KaraAge. The ramen taste authentic though the portion is on the lighter side. The chicken KaraAge is $10 for 4 piecesc- comparatively speaking the taste is not as impressive and is on the pricier side. The service is ok as well (the waiter wasn't too thrilled it looks like as there is only 1 for 5 tables) . The ambience is ok as there are plenty of seating and tables. I would think the place is ok for a quick bite but not much as memorable.
Came here on a Saturday with a party of four and was immediately seated. I ordered the kuro ramen with edamame as my appetizer. My friends ordered the chicken katsu curry, siro ramen, and arashi ramen (monster ramen). The edamame was delicious, steaming hot, and seasoned with some flaky sea salt. The kuro ramen was so yumm, the black garlic oil added a level of depth to the amazing tonkatsu broth that had been boiled for over 15 hours! They did not skimp on the quantity of food in this, and there was a pretty large amount of bean sprouts that I wasn't a fan of (maybe 50/50 on bean sprouts and ramen noodles) so if this is an issue for you I recommend requesting to adapt your order to have more or less, depending on your preference. The chicken katsu curry was breaded so well, and the curry was very reasonably priced too! I'd definitely order this next time given the chance, the portion sizes and amount of protein you get is definitely bang for your buck. Come support a small business and try Ramen Arashi, you won't be disappointed!
Walked in on a Tuesday night for an early dinner at 5:30 pm and noticed a couple things off. First there were no other customers and second there was a very faint smell of "restroom". We ordered the Edamame, Hiyayakko, Chashu Don, & Spicy Maze Soba and all were somewhat disappointing. The edamame were slightly tough/undercooked. The Hiyayakko had good flavor but there were hard pieces of fried garlic(?) that felt like I was chewing small pebbles. The Chashu Don was made with dry pulled pork instead of Chashu, however it was decent with the mayo and was good portion for the cost. The Spicy Maze Soba also came with dry pulled pork instead of Chashu and no ground pork as advertised. The bamboo and mushrooms were cold/lukewarm as if pulled straight out of the can. The only redeeming quality was that the noodles were fresh and had nice chewy texture. Service was friendly and prompt, and the food came out quickly which was nice. I don't know if something changed recently, but the quality of food did not match the reviews here in yelp.
Portion size is huge! Very tasty ramen with an amazing portion of noodles, meat, and veggies making you completely full. The lady who I assume is the owner that served us was very kind. Seated us, served us our drinks and food. Great small business. It was so good, my husband wanted to come back the next day. He was able to order togo take out since they were closing at a specific time. My only con is: There is only one restroom and the handle for the toilet is a tad wonky when flushing.
I went here on a recommendation of a colleague. It was really great. Super selection of ramen and good spice level when ordered that way. Really flavorful and quick service.
This is a hidden gem for a small ramen place at a corner of the plaza next to ranch 99 market! I got the original shiro ramen that's light refreshing but rich that's paired with thin ramen noodle. I would definitely get this again since I prefer regular tonkotsu flavor over miso or shoyu. My partner got the Arashi ramen that's more meaty/richer and this is paired with the thicker ramen noodle. I personally prefer the shiro over this. We also got fried calamari legs and seaweed salad that are also pretty good.
*LOCATION* This small ramen shop is located in the same plaza as the Ranch 99 asian grocery market. There's a parking lot (free) but it's usually hard to find a spot during mealtimes or weekends :( *WAIT TIME* My bf and I visited last Tuesday around 7:15pm. There were only a few tables eating at the time so we didn't have to wait to be seated. After we finished ordering, more people started trickling in. *FOOD* -Arashi shoyu ramen: broth was light and flavorful, noodles were a good consistency, pork was tasty, yummy scallops and toppings -Kuro (black roasted garlic oil): thick and full-bodied broth, good amount of toppings *SERVICE* The waiter was friendly and brought waters out for us right when we sat down. It also didn't take long for our ramen to come out. *AMBIENCE* This cute little shop has some nice décor inside. I love the modern light fixtures, wood accents and the big wall with various anime characters. It's definitely the right place for a bowl of ramen on a cold day!
* BEWARE COMING ON THE WEEKEND. GETS HARD TO FIND PARKING Service was quick and also friendly. Ramen itself was truly authentic and tasted so good. I got their black garlic ramen. I'd say if you're craving ramen, this place will satisfy it. This place doesn't include an egg for you though. I thought the amount of food for the price point that gave was enough. They even have a ramen that is worth $13, so you can get something real quick for something cheap of such high quality. I wish the roasted pork slices provided were just alittle bit thicker since I thought it was pretty thin. Other than that, great place!
Pretty sure this is run by real Japanese staff, they speak the language and I don't mean a simple "welcome" with drumroll type of thing. Not sure why it took so long to visit here, perhaps it's the food court next door at 99 Ranch. A pretty small but straightforward menu. The dry ramen is a nice choice from the regular miso or spicy soup base most places serve. It is dry so be ready for that...I ended up taking about 3 spoons of soup from my partner's bowl but mixing it all together, I'd get this again. The Arashi special is also equally pleasing to the eye and tummy. Was really quiet on a Saturday lunch hour, maybe they do a lot more business around dinner time but it's a nice place to hang out solo or with friends, or a small family. High chair available :)
Come here for the maze soba! This soupless ramen is rich in flavor and comes with a variety of toppings. While it doesn't sit in a pool of ramen broth, there's a bit of residual umami oil from the ground pork that coats the chewy noodles. All the different textures from the noodles, meat, scallions, and other veggies collides into this dish. It's almost like a ramen meets a stirfry. It's a unique dish that not many ramen shops have on their menu and keeps me coming back here. I also tried the Arashi Ramen aka Monster Ramen that my bf ordered. The broth has a very strong flavor that's very porky and almost find of fishy? It wasn't my favorite but I loved the mountain of thinly sliced pork on top. It was so soft and literally melts in your mouth. There's also sweetness from the cabbage and chopped garlic throughout. We also shared their Ikageso Karaage (calamari) which was battered and fried really well. Large pieces of squid with a light seasoning. This comes with a small side of spicy mayo and a shaker can of togarashi powder. This spot has a cool collage image of popular anime and manga characters inside and jpop playing over the speakers. It's located in the warm springs plaza where 99 Ranch is and has decent parking.
I love everything about this cute Ramen place. Their ambience have what it takes to make customers keeps coming back. It's pretty trendy, clean, cute, and welcoming. We were impressed with the service, food, and the vibes it brings to our dining experience to another level. I give this place a 5 star. Everything is delicious, The service was fast and friendly, and the price is definitely one big reason why people would come back. Truly a hidden gem. I dare you to try it! You won't be disappointed. read more
The first time we went to Ramen Arashi, we actually weren't that impressed. But the ramen craving hit hard a couple weeks ago, so we gave them another try, and this time definitely left us with a better impression. Kuro. Black garlic tonkotsu is our go-to if it's on the menu. This hit all the marks for us -- rich broth, chewy noodles, and giant slices of pork. Not much more to be desired in tonkotsu ramen. Arashi Shoyu Ramen. A clearer soy sauce broth option for our kiddos to eat, but still plenty flavorful. Service was friendly and attentive. We'll be back when the next ramen craving inevitably hits! read more
I used to work in the area, so every now and then, I'd have a meal at this place. I absolutely love the ramen especially the mazesoba which was the first thing that was recommended to me. Eventually I tried some of the other ramen that's on the menu. The staff was so nice too! read more

Yum!! This place is a hidden gem honestly!! If you're in the area, check it out!! The owner is actually Japanese :) The broth is sooo good, the noodles are delicious and the minced pork in the KURO black ramen is a great touch. Can't wait to be back and try the rest of the menu! read more
This was my first time visiting Ramen ARASHI. I drove out to Fremont to have lunch with a couple of my coworkers. The ramen itself, the noodles, the flavor of the broth, the meat - 10/10. I had the Spicy Miso Ramen which was delicious. I started to get full but couldn't stop eating! The perfect amount of spice, everything was almost perfect. I removed a star because the meal was missing the tradition egg and also didn't have corn. Our server was also quite unfriendly. Despite this, the ramen was definitely worth another trip. read more
2/25/23 Dinner "True love is hard to find, good ramen is even harder." We were pleasantly surprised to find pretty good ramen at Ramen Arashi. Our only regret is that we were so hungry we overlooked adding eggs to our ramen. We started with the calamari. Their portions are small but it was packed with flavor. I wish more ramen places had this. I got the Kura Black Garlic Ramen and my husband got the Aka Spicy Black Garlic Roasted Ramen. Both broths were rich with flavor and delicious. I did not care for the plastic take-out spoons. They should really upgrade those ASAP. The pork charsu was sliced too thin for my liking, but I did like the ground pork they added. Small place, cute decor, terrible parking but great customer service. I'll be back. read more

MENU AND FOOD: Ramen ARASHI offers a selection of ramen, mini rice bowls and appetizers. SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service was quick and efficient. Their indoor decor was appropriate and appealing. They only have indoor seating. PARKING: Located in a shopping plaza, they have plenty of parking. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: We had their spicy miso and shiro ramens and ikageso kaarage. The two ramen soups were just ok and came with different noodles to our surprise. The ikageso kaarage was tasty, but came in rather a small portion. Overall, it was a pretty average ramen experience. read more
Amazing food. We went there after mission hike and were really craving beer and good food. This place hit the spot. Ramen, katasu curry, gyoza, calamari were great. Chicken karage can be skipped, too big pieces for karage. I have never had that big pieces for chicken karage. The hostess was really nice to us as well. They have Japanese bottle beer for grabs read more

We have been in this family owned restaurant for years. I can comfortably upgrade them from a 4 to a 5 stars rating. It's still my go-to place for a delicious bowl of ramen, and perfectly made tofu and other side dishes. And of course, I won't be done with my ramen till I finish with the whole bowl of broth! The lady owner always come out to make sure our meal is on point, no matter how busy she is. Parking there is ample, since it is inside a shopping plaza. read more
So when I went home to visit my parents, my mom had a craving for Japanese food. In particular, she wanted some Japanese curry. But she didn't want the typical chicken katsu curry, she wanted beef. Since I don't live in the Bay Area anymore I didn't really know new restaurants around, I pulled up good ol' Yelp to find where the best place nearby was to have this beef curry. Ramen Arashi was one of the first restaurants that popped up. We went at opening at 5:00pm (closes between lunch and dinner) and we were the only ones there. The waitress came and took our order very quickly. My mom, of course, ordering her Japanese curry (gyu curry) and I went with the maze soba. Maze soba has been my new recent obsession and I was happy to see this on the menu. First, my mom's gyu curry. It was a little too sweet for her taste, but to me, it was fantastic. It wasn't oily and the meat was cooked perfectly. I do wish it had slightly more beef for a better beef to sauce to rice ratio. Onto my maze soba. I'm not used to having so much on top of maze soba (two different kinds of onions and mung bean sprouts along with the meats, seaweed, and egg), but it was delicious. The flavor was on point and the egg was cooked well. I had leftovers which I took home and had it the next day. Honestly, it was better the next day. I'm guessing it's because the noodles were soaked more into the broth flavor. Amazing. When I visit my parents next, I would go back here again if any of us had a Japanese craving. Their tonkatsu broths and rice bowls look really good too. The restaurant shares a huge parking lot with 99 Ranch. No trouble finding a spot. Check the place out. It's clean, it tastes good, and hassle free. Thanks Ramen ARASHI for a fantastic meal. read more

I did a to go order. This place is so cute. It is a small restaurant. I ordered the spicy miso ramen no pork. I wish they had shrimp but they didn't. The flavor was so good. The noodles were cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be back to dine in. The service was great and the lady was really nice. read more
Had a nice lunch here and enjoyed the Tom lotus ramen. The broth was flavorful and rich, and I really like the veggie toppings. Shiro ramen comes with woodear mushrooms, bean sprouts, and menma aka seasoned bamboo shoots. I really enjoyed all the veggie toppings. The chashu was sliced quite thin and I think was less exciting than the veggies. The group pork is quite tasty though. I recommend stirring it into the soup to warm it up to the same temperature as the ramen. The noodles used are the thinner, straight variety. The broth had more oil floating on top than I am used too, I think I would prefer it to have less, but overall I really enjoyed the ramen! read more

We came here on a Friday night close to closing time. Things were a little slow inside, and we got seated and attended to quickly. Ambiance at this time was not the best, due to how empty the restaurant was and the warmth setting of the lights. However, food arrived very quickly and everything was generally very tasty. We ordered Gyoza 8/10 - the gyoza was very light and crispy and paired well with the dark vinegar provided. Overall it was very tasty. Would have liked a couple more since we were sharing between two people, but it still hit the spot. Scallop Garlic Butter Yaki 7/10 - my boyfriend liked this item more than me, it wasn't heavy at all and tasted nice with an extra squirt of lemon. Clear Chicken Ramen with Ajitama 9/10 - we both ordered the same item, and since we both prefer lighter broths, we decided to try the clear chicken broth. The clear chicken broth was amazing and tasted both light and flavorful. Ramen noodle portions were generous and the toppings it came with added the perfect kick. read more

Overall: Highly recommended! Friendly servers, chill and casual ambience, and most importantly, delicious food! Only tried two dishes during this first visit, but looking forward to try others in the future. Ambience: Went around 6PM on a Monday and the restaurant was pretty empty and quiet. It's a pretty causal and chill restaurant. Service: Great! The servers were all smiles and really friendly. The food came really quickly after we placed our orders. Food: [1] Spicy Miso Ramen. Highly recommended! Broth was really flavorful and the noodles were cooked to the right texture. The minced pork was also marinated. I added vinegar (that was supposed to be for the Spicy Maze Soba), making it even better since I have a sour tooth. [2] Spicy Maze Soba, accompanied with a bottle of kelp-seasoned vinegar and a bottle of chilli oil on the side. From what I can tell, the noodles weren't made of buckwheat flour and was the same noodles as the ramen dish (so essentially, it's ramen noodles). The noodles were still really good though. The toppings are bean sprouts, wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots, seaweed, green onions, marinated minced pork, one soft-boiled egg, and some cayenne pepper. The recommended way of eating this by the restaurant is to add the vinegar and chilli oil provided. Even if you don't, the dish is flavorful enough on its own. I personally would still eat it the recommended way. The vinegar was seasoned with a piece of kelp, giving it additional umami flavor, so I added a lot of it. Highly recommended! read more

I would give this place a 3.5. I liked the flavor of the ramen broth (I got the aka spicy garlic oil) but it was way too salty. I would not order this again only because of the amount of salt in it. We also ordered the spicy edemame, which was fantastic! It had a charred/smoky flavor which was different and flavorful. read more
