I never expected to fine such good Japanese ramen all the way out in Rancho Cucamonga. I'd heard the name a few times before, so my friends and I decided to stop by for lunch one day just to see what the hype was about. I'm so glad we did because it ended up being one of the best ramen spots I've tried in the area. The noodles were cooked perfectly with just the right amount of chew, and the broth was rich and flavorful without being overly heavy or greasy. It wasn't watered down either. The pork slice were seriously thick! Honestly thicker than what I've gotten at some BBQ restaurants. Even with the generous cut, the pork was incredibly tender and easy to bite through without feeling tough at all. I also asked if they could make my ramen extra spicy, and they absolutely delivered. The added heat complemented the broth instead of overpowering it, which made the whole bowl even more addictive. This is def one of those places that exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend! read more

Silverlake Ramen - Spicy ramen "Blaze" - Ramen Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

ordered online. went to pick up my order and sat in the parking lot and waited till I got a text that said my order was ready, and I never did. finally, 15 minutes after waiting I decided to go inside to pick it up and it was ready and sitting there. the girls working were extremely rude. when one of the girls greeted me, it was extremely passive aggressive, no smile and didn't tell me to have a great day, even though I told her to have a good one. although the energy i got from them was not great, my main complaint is that I never received a notification saying that my order was ready so now my food is a little bit cold. I put my number in to get notifications and it didn't work, completely pointless. read more

The combo option is a good choice, if you want more for less. The Shoyu broth was pretty good, a little bit excessive with the green onions. The karaage was nice and crispy. The atmosphere is going to be nice regardless because it's outside in Victoria gardens. Food came out in a timely manner and the service was normal so that's good. read more

Checked out this place in person in Victoria Gardens. Siverlake Ramen is a chain, and I've ordered Togo before, but never ate in. It's typically a busier mall, so I expected a wait, but we got seated pretty quickly. They have indoor and outdoor seating, but we opted for inside. The service was relatively quick and smooth. The staff was pretty attentive and moved quickly. The food was good, I have eaten it before. It looks small in terms of portion size but was pretty decently filling. We got a combo that came with an appetizer (we opted for the broccolini (not pictured because we devoured it pretty quickly). It comes with sesame sauce and is charred pretty well. Really enjoyed that. Main course wise, we got the Shoyu Ramen with Pork and Spicy Tuna Poke Bowl, both which were super yummy. We also got a pint of beer and green tea for drinks, and it was good altogether. I'd say this is a pretty casual spot so no need to dress up. Seating can be a bit tight and it can get sunny due to the open windows without shades, but otherwise, pretty lax and chill spot for lunch or dinner. read more

My husband and I dined in here spontaneously. We were sat pretty quickly, it wasn't too busy and it was nice outside also. Everything's kept clean, and it's a nice vibe. I want to say that the servers are very quick and on point. They were very attentive with water, food, etc. the only thing that threw me off I guess was our California roll came out when we were almost done eating. For food, my husband got the chicken broth ramen and I got the classic ramen they offer with pork. I really wish it came with more pork pieces, the only give you one. I found it to be very tasty too so it was disappointing they only gave one. The ramen is okay, it's not like bad, it's good, it's just missing the "wow" factor for me. It needed a little extra something! All in all, I've been to their other location and this one is pretty good too. read more

Silverlake Ramen - Classic - Ramen Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

.., I always have a great experience here. Silverlake Ramen has a broth flavor that I always crave. So far I've had their chicken karaage, pork buns, & classic Ramen and they've stayed consistent on all my visits. There's usually a wait, but it moves efficiently. Given the location, this place is always packed. I recommend getting the Classic with pork belly & a side of chili paste. I'm drooling just thinking about it. Clean establishment and service is always good. Coming back soon now that it's on my mind! read more

We went to Silverlake Ramen on a rainy, cold day because my wife was craving some warm ramen. Surprisingly, parking wasn't too much of a hassle since there weren't many people out. As soon as we walked in, the host seated us quickly and even offered some great recommendations. I wasn't in the mood for ramen, so I opted for the pork belly bowl and I must say, it was extremely delicious. I live in Victorville, but I would honestly come back just for that bowl alone. As for the ramen, it wasn't anything out of the ordinary for us. In fact, we felt it lacked some flavor. We've had authentic Japanese ramen before, and this just didn't quite compare. We got the ramen + appetizer deal and chose the chicken karaage, and wow that was tasty. I wish I had gotten the name of the host because she was incredibly attentive, friendly, and her food suggestions really hit the spot. The place was full, had a good vibe, and was even dog-friendly for our pup. Overall, I'd definitely come back, especially for that pork belly bowl! read more

I came with a group of 4 for dinner and we were quoted a wait time of 20 minutes but luckily we got seated after only about 10 minutes. We got a regular chicken karaage, regular chicken curry bowl, pork classic ramen, pork garlic truffle ramen, and a pork tsukemen. The food came out fairly quickly and I like how they put the utensils and napkins on the side for you to grab as needed. $8.50 Chicken Karaage (5/5) - The chicken was fried perfectly and there was a good amount of chicken per piece without it being overpowered by the breading. The spicy mayo sauce it was paired with was also delicious. $8.75 Chicken Curry Bowl (3/5) - This dish had around 3 pieces of chicken karaage in it but the flavors overall were good. I probably wouldn't get this again. $17.50 Garlic Truffle Ramen w. Pork (4/5) - The garlic truffle flavor was very prominent throughout the dish but at times did feel a little overpowering. It was still pretty good though! $16 Classic Ramen w. Pork (3.5/5) - Pretty standard dish but it did get too salty with every bite so that was a little disappointing. $19.05 Tsukemen w. Pork (3.5/5) - The noodles were perfectly cooked and the dipping broth it came with was served warm so that was a little disappointing. The flavors were good but tasted a little standard - I do think this dish was lacking some spice (costs extra $$). Overall, a solid dish but at this price point I probably wouldn't get it again. Overall, this is a solid place to get a real meal inside Victoria Gardens. The workers were attentive and the store was pretty clean but prices were just a little steep for the portion and quality. read more

Last night, it was raining (perfect soup weather), and we sat outside--their heater kept us perfectly warm. The staff is always so nice and willing to make your meal a warm and fulfilling experience. Anytime I visit, I have to get the broccolini with sesame dressing. Tip: Get the combo bowl; it comes with a small side dish. read more

Silverlake Ramen - Garlic ramen with pork - Ramen Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

My server was a female when I came into the restaurant I was greeted by a male. I believe his name was Sid anyways he tried to citizen a very small table by the windows, and I told him that it was a very small table for me and my friend and I asked if I could be seated somewhere else he looked at me very weird almost if he was bothered by the question and he said a smart remark to his other colleagues while I was there, I believe that the person who greets you at a restaurant that is the face of the restaurant and the first impression you get at a restaurant so I would have to give this Russian a one star, even though my server was amazing. The gentleman who greeted us ruined the whole experience. read more

Trying silver lake for the first time and here's what we ordered: * garlic truffle pork ramen * classic tonkatsu with pork * classic tonkatsu with chicken * veggie ramen * karage * karage bowl the ramen itself and broth is decent but i was not a big fan of their toppings. the meat is on the fatter side and truffle ramen came with shittake mushrooms i think, which was odd for ramen and i didn't like it. i usually like the black fungus mushrooms better. the veggies on top also didn't take the best. i don't think i would order that again the karage was pretty flavorful and the meat was tender. it took around 20 minutes to get seated but the food came out pretty fast read more

I ordered shoyu fire and shoyu ramen through DoorDash today. The shoyu fire was okay. But I found a bug sitting on top of a spinach with the shoyu ramen. I couldn't eat it anymore. It wasn't busy when I went to pick it up. It was around 6 pm today. Edit: I called and told them about the bug. They were helpful and were able to help me get a refund through DoorDash. read more

Food: We had absolutely no complaints. It was very fresh and hot and so good! All the veggies were great and the base was perfect. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the meat was good and good texture. Also, for those who are picky with water. As I am lol. It's good water! Mine was spicy and they kept my water full the whole time. Service: Our waiter was very friendly and polite. He had a sense of humor which made our visit so great. He was very helpful with all of our questions. All the staff were very friendly. Outside: There is a good size patio, with heaters and the enclosure that I'm sure they close when it's cold! We first sat out there but it was during one of the windy days, they helped us move our stuff inside! Inside: They have a lot of seating! And it is very clean inside. They have a few bar seats too which might be fun. It seems like you could call and reserve a table, we saw a few people call and reserve a table (but it wasn't just when we were there) and they saved it for when they came! You sit down then order! They do have a restroom too. read more

The food was really delicious, some of the best ramen I've had in California. I mean I don't really order ramen that often but I would expect a place that specializes it to be really good, which it is! We had an appetizer of grilled gyoza dumplings which were pretty fire! Had a nice taste especially with the ponzu type of sauce served with them! Now for my ramen I had the blaze with the extra hot! It was spicy but I thought it was gonna be a lot hotter since it was there hottest option. But don't worry, it had a good spice so that I could enjoy the ramen so I was able to finish it all. The broth was creamy and nice, I also switched the pork for chicken which was pretty good. My girlfriend just got the original but switched to chicken instead of pork as well, her broth was much more of a creamier taste and nice rich flavor. I would recommend that if you don't like spice! The prices weren't bad especially for the big portions! The service was nice and the food came out at a decent time so not much to complain about. The employees were nice and very friendly. The ambiance has a chill vibe, lots neon lights and nice art! I really liked the atmosphere, very cool and inviting! I would recommend for sure, it was a nice date spot! Would come again! read more

Super excited to have a yummy ramen place near home! The location is perfect-- it's right next to one of the Victoria Garden parking structures. The restaurant offers both outdoor and indoor seating (even though the indoor seating is a bit limited). They have a great special that includes an appetizer and a ramen of your choice. They have a good selection of ramen and bowls. The food is super yummy and the staff is very friendly. We came here with a friend from out of town and had a really nice experience. Would definitely recommend! read more

The service was good, the workers are very attentive asking if we needed anything. Food was very good, but extremely spicy, but that just depends on what you order. If anything sitting inside was a little awkward because it felt cramped and if you're sitting inside it's like you're sitting with the staff because the tables are so close to the front counter. So even if we were the only people there eating at the time, it was kinda like the staff were eating with us. But that's not their fault at all, just the layout. Sitting outside would probably be best if the weather permits it :) . read more

Silverlake Ramen - The Garlic Truffle Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

a last min xmas shopping on rainy xmas eve type of lunch. last i had silverlake ramen was abt 3-4 yrs ago w the garlic truffle ramen. and as someone w zero preference towards truffle, my rating was v low. this time w a craving for a warming bowl of ramen, i ordered more to my liking ordered: classic ramen combo gyoza, spicy veggie ramen combo karaage classic ramen is what i think is their tonkotsu ramen. it was a light rich creamy pork broth, emphasis on the light bc usually halfway through a tonkotsu bowl, i experience major flavor fatigue, but this bowl kept me chopsticking for more. it had 1 piece of pork chashu which is a lacking amt frm experience, it was a thicker cut so maybe that's why, but i think it could have included at least 1 more piece. the chashu fit my standards of chashu in my ramen which is small ratio of fat to meat and not so charred that i taste the smoke in the texture, but the right amt just to cook it and bring out the flavors of the tender meat. if you do get flavor fatigue, mix the bean sprouts well into the ramen so that each bite is 50/50, it will brighten the flavor. the spinach was a good greenness that didn't take away frm the ramen. egg was a solid soft boiled jammy yolk. the black garlic oil i think didn't make too much of a difference, but if you want to truly compare, ask for the garlic oil ots and try the broth on its own first. noodles were yummy thin straight noods spicy veggie ramen: honestly not a lot of words. i think the vegan ramen at hironori may have tasted better than this one, but this one had a lighter more refreshing flavor. i do think it fell a little flat, but after squeezing some lemon into the broth, it was more to my liking. the broccolini was the real star imo, i think this would be "the chashu pork" of my veg ramens. tofu was firm/extra firm tofu if you're into that, personally am not. would up spice to medium for more of a kick. avocado was cool. mushrooms were yum but i like mushrooms gyoza: better than the karaage. i think tastes fine as is, but the spicy aeoli(?) w a lemon wedge is included. karaage: hironori is smm better, silverlake karaage is v avg. tastes yum tho if you squeeze lemon wedge into the aeoli(?) and dip the karaage into that seating by the window is beautiful, service is helpful, quick, and friendly on a xmas eve lunch happy i gave this place a second shot, i think it's now my go to spot for ramen if i'm ever craving it while in riv. would try diff appetizers next time. thank you silverlake ramen for fueling my last min xmas shopping read more

My 1st Silverlake Ramen visit was at Chino Hills, my 2nd visit was at University Town Center in La Jolla, and now my 3rd visit is at Rancho Cucamonga. I was excited to find out they are getting closer and closer to where I live. Very cool! Thank you!! I didn't dine in. I decided to do take-out. They do have limited inside dining and lots of outside patio dining so no worries on space unless they get really really busy. Upon entry, I was actually looking for a kiosk, but they didn't have one. I walked up to the register and looked at the lady, but she didn't even bat her eyes at me LOL. I obviously did not exist in her presence at the time. However, she did make eye contact and asked the lady behind me if they were dining in or not. What the h*ck? I was slightly annoyed. After she seated the lady and her family, she walked back up to the register and still did not acknowledge my presence. I had to tell her I wanted to do take-out... then she saw me LOL. Knocking 1 star down for lack of customer service. Anyway, I got the Blaze ramen bowl + gyoza and large chicken kaarage. Ramen texture was on point. Soup was delicious, but it wasn't as savory as I would have liked. Pork belly was very thin compared to other Silverlake Ramen places. Egg was okay. Chicken kaarage was tender and tasty... I would get this again! I really wanted to rate this place with 4 stars and above, but I'm going to go with 3 stars. Maybe next time I will dine in... perhaps service and food will be better. I'll still recommend this place nevertheless since I do enjoy Silverlake Ramen foods. read more

Honestly, overpriced for the $16 plus fee. The Shoyu ramen was tasty but not completely satisfying. Not enough noodles or meat, probably could have used more veggies. Definitely should've been priced lower for that less amount of food. Also, for how pricey the ramen and dishes are, they should've offered fresh lemonade instead of too sweet lemonade from the soda fountain. So that's why 3 stars. read more

The food was delicious! You get a lot for the price. Great outside seating with attentive staff.

Solid ramen spot! I got the classic ramen with pork and it was great. The broth was creamy, savory, and umami. The veggies it were a great compliment to the rich broth. The pork belly was good, but a bit tough. I wish it was more of a melt in your mouth type of pork belly. I also loved the chicken karaage with the spicy mayo dipping sauce. The chicken was crispy and juicy and a squeeze of lemon on them was perfect. The interior was a bit unclean, the air seemed murky and the surfaces seemed greasy. The bathroom was also pretty unclean. I would suggest keeping the restaurant cleaner for an optimal experience for the diner. The service was also fine. I wish the server made it clear that we could pick up our to-go order from the counter instead of us just waiting until taking the initiative to pick it up. read more

Very tasty! I didn't order ramen but I ordered a grilled pork rice bowl. I loved the toppings on this bowl. The price was also very reasonable. It was $13 for the large sized pork bowl! My favorite part about it is that there is pickled onions on it! I absolutely love pickled onions so much. The flavoring on the pork is also very tasty and delicious my little sister really enjoyed it. The seating seems to be mainly outside which isn't so bad. But if you have a smaller sized party, you could potentially be sat inside. Parking nearby is metered, but there is also a parking garage and lot that is just a short walk away. The bathrooms here are clean. The staff is nice and the clientele isn't bad either. read more

Silverlake Ramen - Blaze ramen - Ramen Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

FOUR STARS The ambience at Silverlake Ramen is beautiful -- I love sitting outside, especially when it's a little chilly and they turn on the heated ceiling lamps. It feels super cozy and relaxing. The environment is clean, and the staff is kind and attentive. Our waters were always filled, and everything looked well-kept. As for the food -- the ramen is decent, but not amazing. I've tried the Truffle Ramen and the Blaze Ramen (mild) and both were just okay. The pork is tasty and tender, but the noodles and broth lack depth in flavor. The Blaze had heat but didn't give me that rich tonkatsu flavor I was hoping for. I'd personally rate the ramen a 3/5. The real star here is the Chicken Karaage Bowl. It's delicious, crispy, and actually a great deal for the price. The rice has flavor, the chicken is golden and crunchy, and the drizzle on top ties everything together. I got the regular size and it was perfect for a lighter meal, but if you're hungry, definitely go with the large -- the regular can feel a bit small. 5/5!! Just a heads up: if you order the ramen combo, the appetizer (like the karaage) is way smaller than ordering the appetizer by itself. I only got four pieces in the combo version (the picture) -- so don't expect the same portion regular appetizer. Overall, this is a great spot with chill vibes and great service. I'll definitely be back -- but next time, I'm skipping the ramen and going straight for that chicken karaage bowl! TL;DR: Beautiful ambiance with cozy outdoor seating and heated lamps. Ramen is okay, but the chicken karaage bowl is the real winner -- crispy, flavorful, and a great deal. Staff is friendly, service is good, and I'll be back for the chicken karaage, not the ramen. read more

Back again to my favorite ramen spot. I came with my family from out of town.we order the garlic truffle and the spicy options. Unfortunately, service was lacking. I signed up for the app which is awesome you get points at check in and freebies on your bday. I chose a free side for with my points and asked for a side egg and even thought The waitress said she added it to my order it never came. The same with my side of chili paste i ordered and didn't at first get it. I had to wait a while before the waitress came back. She then brought it, not to be rude or demanding but ramen gets cold and having to wait can make a difference. Usually I'm always very satisfied when I visit, I understand we have off days so I'm still a huge fan. Also it's was around 50 degrees tonight and it was so cold on the patio even with heat lamps so if you don't like to be cold I'd sit inside. read more
