Reviews for Uchiwa Ramen in San Rafael, CA
Disappointing experience, tongkotsu not warm at all, grumpy lady serving, perhaps too early after opening but would advise to... try somewhere else. Its a shame, it all looked good, nice interior but here the saying, it's not the looks baby, it's thetaste. Never again. Read more
Excellent ramen. Pork is amazing.
Uchiwa makes the best broth for their tonkatsu. I like to add kimchi to the bowl and their fire spice on the side. I disagree... with the reviews that say the broth is bland. It is the richest that I have found. The only place that even compares is in Japantown in SF. The food is superior and you couldn't ask for more personal experience. It's like going home home for comfortfood! I love Uchiwa! Read more
Short ribs were great. The Ramen itself was inedible, I have an incredibly high spice tolerance, but the way they made it was... just inedible, not spicy, just absolutely destroyed the meal. They made a meal I ordered intolerably spicy when I orderedRegular Spice. I love spicy food, but this wasn't good, the ramen bowl was absolutely destroyed from the level of spice in avery bad way, couldn't taste anything, wasn't even worth eating half of it. So order the spice oil on the side if you actuallywant to enjoy your ramen at all... Read more
Ramen on a rainy day was a perfect pairing. My office and I scrambled to get a To-Go order in for our lunch today: our first... choice was unresponsive to our online inquiry or answering their phones to let us know that To-Go wasn't an option for theirplace anymore.. so we found this spot. Excellent Customer service, first and foremost. I will sing praises of this place fortheir patience, their attention to detail and thoughtfulness of our situation. Both people behind the counter were amazingfolks, and they were swamped with people coming through for their lunch rush and having phone calls and To-Go orders made at thelocation. They were awesome! The food was well worth it. I received the Miso Ramen and it was a beautiful, traditionally madedish. Everything was portioned perfectly and the tempature was still hot when I got to it. They packaged it well and with themost thought! I never had to worry about the Raman dishes spilling or getting ruined! They even added a hi-chew! Haha I lovethat! I don't live in this area, but if I work here again, I know I can come back to this place! Read more
We stumbled upon this place and are happy we did! The ramen is good and fresh with a lot of flavor. We did the karaage as well... and the flavor was amazing but the texture was not as crispy as I'm sure it is when it's fresh at the restaurant. We had to takeit home of course until dine-in is allowed. Really good and I'd go back to try different dishes for sure. Read more
Enjoyed a very delicious lunch. The kale salad was super tasty. I could eat that as an entree. The Spam musubi was great. The... ramen was good. The broth could have been tastier. Read more
Gyouza shouldn't called Gyouza, but deep fried dumplings. The ramen were OK, but there are much better alternatives... The girl... serving us was very sweet and incredibly beautiful ????. Read more
