“Amazing ox tail udon. Very tender. I added a poached egg to it. Broth clean and not salty. We also had chicken karaage and fried whole squid, which was also tender and flavorful. If you are into udon, this is the place to get something that is different from the others. This place gets busy so it's a good idea to get there at opening.“
“This place is great! I feel like enjoyed it even more than the Santa Clara location?! I pretty much stick to the to the tonkatsu ramen (I prefer thin noodles), the broth is creamy and deeply flavorful, the charshu is delicious, I kind feel like I could take or leave the spinach but it’s nice and fresh. The crispy chicken (Karaage) is bomb.The ONLY reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because I’ve had mixed experiences picking up…insert minor rant: They follow some of the requests in the order, but often miss things I’ve paid extra for, last time it was corn and garlic, this time it was charshu and garlic. I caught the garlic and asked for one and the guy helping me first looked in my bag, then checked my receipt while saying “did you order garlic”, and didn’t apologize when he saw I had. I felt like he thought I was trying scam them, when they’re the ones that made the mistake. I asked if I could have 2, given that it’s free in the restaurant and I had missed out last time (though I didn’t mention that, didn’t seem necessary), but he refused. The missing charshu was just a bummer too. Neither are a huge deal, but just takes away from the experience a little, will stick to dining in going forward.“
“Came into the store was approached with a smile, by Ruben. this young gentleman, begin to tell me about the sandwiches, for I only orders melt burger. Told me to try new items.

Great clean areas to sit. And always a helping g hand with a smile from Ruben and Jorge. Thank you! This has been a great experience! Trust this place for your customer service needs, and quality of the product!! GREAT!!“
“Ippudo is a good fast paced ramen spot. I don't think it's the best ramen around in town, but it is good. The service was fast and very attentive! The parking can be a little tough if you want to park in front, but there is a garage with a lot of spots!“
“In the quest for Vegan/Vegetarian Ramen, we discovered another intriguing Ramen spot. This is a newly opened location in San Jose West. We ordered Miso Ramen and Stir Fry Ramen. The Miso Ramen is standard but perfectly hits the right notes. The Stir Fry Ramen is a novel type that we tried, loaded with cabbage, stir-fried veggies, and a delicious veggie broth. Personally, I enjoy cabbage and stir-fried dishes, so I loved this variation. Our server provided spice options like chili oil, Nanami Togarashi, and house-made chili paste, each increasing in spiciness. All of them were excellent at their respective spice levels. Overall, we had an awesome bowl of Ramen for dinner. Other intriguing options available include curry ramen and chilled hiyashi ramen. Regarding the ambience and seating, it's ordinary, and they have limited seating outside.“
“Excellent quality, the best broth, excellent noodles, delicious Tonkatsu, and friendly service... I'd have a picture of the excellent ramen, but I always can't wait to get it in my stomach :) Get the cheesecake if it is not sold out. Wait time is typically moderate and not too bad, and you can easily see your spot in line from your phone after checking in.“
“Up on par with my best ramen experiences in Tokyo. The lone can be seem long, but it goes quickly. They are fast to seat you and serve you. I keep going back to the Red King, but that's a personal preference. Oh, yes, you can customize your order quite a bit, but if ramen is not your thing, there is no point in going here... aside from some yummy sides, ramen is all they offer. Which is just fine by me. Update: still the place to go for ramen in Palo Alto, hands down.“
“Oh...My...Goodness...this place has BY FAR the best bento boxes Ive ever had. Period. Ever. I personally got their pork belly bento box and when I tell you the flavors melted in my mouth man it melted in my mouth. I never thought Id fall in love with food until I had the pork belly bento box...“
“Vegan friendly! Tried the creamy vegan ramen and the ponzu ramen. Creamy ramen was flavorful, spinach ramen was cooked to the right consistency. I also enjoyed the fried kale that came with it. The ponzu ramen might be better if the zest/ citrus peel wasn't actually shredded into the soup, it makes it bitter and less enjoyable to eat.Patio was heated, and dog friendly.“
“I came here on a Sunday afternoon. I had the Chicken Paitan ramen which came with a very tasty chicken leg. The meal was very filling but not too filling - I felt comfortably full by the end of it! The service was quite good too, I recommend this place!“
