    1241 Park St Alameda, CA 94501 I had a craving for a nice bowl of ramen on a cool Sunday morning. I saw that Ramen Hiroshi just opened at 11:30am, so I went in to try their food. The young man offered me a table and gave me a menu. I asked for iced tea. He offered me a bottle of green tea and a tall cup of ice. Okay, that's fine. It's 11:45am, and I'm the only customer there. I ordered: Cha-Shu (pork belly), Chicken Wings, and Hiroshi Tonkotsu. In general, the food is good. The presentation is nice and thoughtful. The Cha-Shu was tender and juicy. The Hiroshi Tonkotsu was loaded with noodles. The broth was a little salty. The Chicken Wings were okay, I guess. That's because it took nearly 30-mins to serve them. And that's the issue I had with this restaurant.....service time. I've been to several ramen and noodle places recently, and nobody takes 25 mins to serve a bowl of ramen. It's okay, there's other noodle places in Alameda.

    Shoyu vegetarian ramen without egg

    We came here for dinner for the vegetarian ramen. We got seated right away. The place was pretty empty. One person sitting at a table waiting for a take out order and a family of four at another table. There were stacks of boxes in the corner at the back of the restaurant. It's really not a good look and not that inviting to come sit and dine at the restaurant. Plus it was really cold in there. We both ordered the 2 vegetarian ramen on their menu. Our food came out pretty quickly. The ramen was just ok, average at the most. I wish they would put more effort into making it tasty. I love miso soup base and wished they had that option for vegetarian ramen. The soy sauce based soup was just ok, not a whole lot of flavor though. You can barely taste the yuzu. I wish there were better vegetarian ramen options in Alameda. I was hoping this was it. Service wasn't so great. We finished our meal and no one checked in on us the whole time we were there. We finally couldn't wait any longer and got up to the counter to pay but no one was there to check us out. The 2 guys there were both in the back for a long time. They didn't notice us waiting until someone came in. Don't think we'll be coming back.

    Yuzu Shoyu Ramen

    I had the yuzu ramen which was amazingly flavored with the perfect amount of yuzu . I remember when I was younger I loved eating maruchan with lime . But this is the is way better version without the chemicals and processed . The noodles were fresh tasting and their pork had a great amazing flavor .the egg was cooked to perfection . We will definitely come back again . The service was friendly I would say it was a little loud but it's the weekend so it's to be expected

    The Yuzu Ramen was a wonderful take on a classic Shoyu, but with a touch of citrus and a little bit of spice.

    Ordered Ramen Hiroshi for the very first time for delivery. I will most certainly make an effort to come in because I'm sure this is 1000x better for dine-in. That said, even the take out was comforting and delicious. I do wish I had more broth (take out was given about 1/3 of a container). I look forward to trying again.

    The ramen here was quite good. The noodles were perfectly cooked and just the right texture. The service was a little slow but I think there was only one guy working. Inside was nice and comfortable.

    Shouyu Ramen

    Nice to have a ramen option in Alameda. Came at lunchtime on a Monday (yes, some place open on Monday!). The Shoyu ramen didn't disappoint. A hearty bowl with two pieces of pork chasiu, bamboo shoots, nori, egg, fish cakes, lotus roots and a nice serving of ramen in the light soy sauce broth. Good comfort food dish.

    The weather keeps giving ramen vibes and I enjoy a good ramen. This place is okay. The menu is somewhat small but it does execute if one wants ramen. Ordered the Hiroshi Tonkotsu Ramen and the Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen. I shared Takoyaki and it was pretty good. High quality and very flavourful as it should be. Thera plenty of vegetarian option. Ramen took a while even though the place had low patronage. Presentation is great. Both broths were okay. I feel that it was very flat and not much stood out. It tasted a bit watery to my taste. Noodles were good and had good consistency. No waiter service. We asked for water and it seemed off to ask and we had no one refill our water. 20, 21, 51A, O AC Transit buses all go through here.

    First time here, just happened upon it looking for a bagel shop. Small and quaint but tables were filthy. We wiped ours down and the wet wipe turned up black. Very slow service. Ramen was bowl of flavorless noodles. On a good note Chicken wings were awesome and the Service was friendly. Expensive compared to other ramen places. Bathroom was not clean. Won't be returning.

    Tonkatsu ramen

    I've eaten here a couple of times and this place is consistently good. When you want a classic ramen that has all the fix-ins, a clean broth, and good proteins - this is your place. It's a chill restaurant and they have a nice variety of starters. The ramen here isn't special or outstanding, but it's good classic comfort food. They have seating outside and the prices are what you'd expect for ramen out here in the Bay Area/Alameda area. Come here if you just want a hot, steaming, classic bowl of ramen.

    Chicken Karaage

    Ramen Hiroshi is a little place located on Park St. I was able to easily find parking in the neighborhood around noon on a Sunday. I walked in and was greeted right away and was told to sit wherever I liked. I came here with my little brother so of course I had to get some little appetizers for him. I ordered the chicken karaage, deep fried gyoza, and salt and pepper wings for him. The karaage and gyoza came out first. The karaage was a bit plain but the sauce made up for it. My little brother said he liked the sauce because the flavoring wasn't too strong for him. I enjoyed the gyoza, that thang was hot throughout my meal. The chicken wings didn't come out until the end. I think I'm a bit disappointed in the portion sizes for both the karaage and wings, I was expecting a bit more. I ordered the house ramen and found it to be a bit bland for my liking but their braised pork belly made up for it. It was a bit fatty for me but I still enjoyed it. Here's a breakdown of how much I spent on each item Chicken karaage - $10 Deep fried gyoza - $10 Salt and pepper chicken wings - $9 Hiroshi Tonkatsu - $16

    Shio Ramen!
    Kristin Q.

    Food: 8/10 Service: 10/10 Portion size: medium Wait time: 7 minutes for food to come out Came here for lunch for the first time. It was nice and warm out but was feeling some ramen. I got the shio Ramen and hubby got the tantanmen Ramen. Both Ramen dishes were good. The tantanmen has more flavor in the broth but if you're like me and want something mellow for the stomach the Shio Ramen is your pick. It's more of a clear broth vs. A creamy broth. The eggs were cooked to perfection, both came with veggies and noodles were fresh and bouncy! The pork slices in the Ramen did have good flavor but they weren't as tender. They were thicker and a bit chewy but like I said the flavor was good. I gave a 10 for service because I had no idea they closed in the middle of the day at 2:30pm and I got there at 2:10pm and they still sat us and were super nice. When I found out I apologized but they were so nice about it! They have both indoor and outdoor seating so take advantage on a nice day out!

    Just another ramen spot to me. My broth was a little bit bland and everything else unremarkable but ramen and noodle soup is my weakness so it was still comforting. Parking can get a bit rough so we had to go into the neighborhood behind to finally get a spot. Food: 5/10 Vibes: 5/10 Service: 5/10 Value: 4/10

    Ramen Station is hands down one of the best ramen spots in the Bay Area. What really sets it apart…read moreis the fully contactless experience, which is both efficient and fun. Walking in feels like stepping into a Japanese train station--bright colors, bold art on the walls, and TVs playing scenic views from a Japanese train ride. Below the screens are self-ordering kiosks where you customize everything yourself. My go-to order every time: Spicy Tan Tan Ramen -- 10/10. The broth is rich, creamy, and perfectly spicy with a sesame-infused base. It comes with ground pork, seaweed, green scallions, corn, and woodear mushrooms. I usually substitute the woodear mushrooms for shiitake mushrooms, add pickled pink ginger, ask for light salt, and choose skinny noodles. I love that you can customize toppings and noodle thickness exactly how you want. Once you pay, a receipt prints with your number. You wait until your number is called over the radio--when it happens, a train bell rings, and your number flashes above the serving window like you're boarding a train. Such a cool touch. Portions are generous, flavors are always bold, and the ramen is consistently packed and satisfying. If you're taking it to go, they offer solid packaging options so you can reheat everything properly at home. Tip: skip the paper bags--they don't hold up well. Get the box and handle with care. I come here often, and even after trying other ramen spots, nothing compares. Ramen Station is a true 5-star, contactless ramen experience. Highly recommend.

The wait time was kind of long considering there was no one there. At all. There is a dining area outside by the water that's nice as well. Parking lot is small and could appear to get busy during weekdays. Overall it's a cool experience especially if you're the type to dine alone. It's like dining alone in Japan if you've ever been.

I took the plunge and ordered the Oxtail Ramen (sweet potato, garlic chives, sesame, shio chicken broth). Now, I love oxtail, and I love ramen. This should've been the culinary equivalent of watching an undefeated season. The Verdict? It was... fine. You ever eat something that's technically correct--the spices are there, the texture is fine--but it just doesn't hit that emotional frequency? That was this bowl. The oxtail was tender, and the sweet potato was an interesting, earthy addition. The shio chicken broth was savory, but it frankly lacked that deep, soulful complexity, that umami punch that makes you stop mid-slurp and appreciate the moment. It wasn't bad, just not inspired. If this bowl was a term paper, it would get a competent 'C'--meets the requirements, but nowhere near the Dean's List. If you're in the area and need a decent, perfectly acceptable bowl of hot soup and a chill environment, Itani will do the job. But if you're looking for that transcendent, life-affirming ramen experience, you might want to adjust your GPS. I'm giving it a 3 out of 5 stars--it passed, but I'm not running back for seconds.

The kid was so cute, and always playing in the back near the restroom. I am not sure of their business model. I am led to believe they are an extended family business...?

But as a light eater, I was still hungry after eating my dinner, but it did look like it was a decent portion. Chirashi - Wow, this looked so good. Also, it's fresh. I will get this next time. My guest was only able to eat half of her dinner. But this also came with a salad and soup. And for only $3 more, this was the better choice of the two. Atmosphere - Good and clean. Small local business. One clean large unisex restroom. Plenty of mall parking. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm or 9:30pm; see website for specifics. Service - Quick and friendly. The owners (Kevin since 2013) were not here today. The restrooms are clean and organized. You have to respect an owner that snakes their own plumbing (see picture)! Price - Reasonable, especially for dinner. Owner Suggestion - I remember you were so proud of your 4+ star yelp ratings when you first opened. You are still well respected in the community and am sure you will get back to your 4+ star ratings again.
