There will be a line. A long line. A long wait. Bring entertainment, or a chatty partner. The Ramen is good, especially the... broth. The red spicy was a hit in our group. The vegetarian broth can be bland, circle double spice on your order form. TheSpicy bean sprouts on your table can keep you yummy company while you wait for your Ramen. The service is attentive and prompt. Read more
I went today around noon with a friend and we both got the original king. My friend just chose the chef's recommended while I... chose all of the chef recommended levels but went with thick noodles instead of the recommended thin. The thick noodles weredelicious and had that perfect qq texture. The broth was rich without being overbearingly rich and fatty. The chashu was fattybut cut thinly and extremely tender. The flavors were balanced. The service was fast and overall just had a really good time.This is actually my second time going to this Ramen Nagi, and I will say that it's better to go at noon-afternoon for lunch asopposed to dinner.

My wife and I came to this place after realizing that Din Tai Fung has a long hour and a half wait and the Nordstrom ramen... restaurant was replaced. While waiting 15 minutes, the hostess provided the menu to pre-select our customizable ramen. I orderedthe squid ink ramen and my wife ordered the original Miso ramen, which were both delicious. The only thing I thought was weirdwas they did not serve hot tea because all their beverages are either canned or bottled. Read more
Decent ramen, attentive waiters, long wait. Overall the process getting in was good. There is usually a line outside, but they... give you a paper menu so you can prepare the order. For it's price the ramen itself didn't fill me up compared to other ramenspots, you can add more noodles to compensate though, but by default, it wasn't quite enough. The kaarage was bland and had tobe carried by the tomatoes. Good to check-out once if you haven't tried because of the hype, but probably not a spot I'llactively choose since food was okay and a long wait. Read more
Finally tasted their Ramen on Monday noon time. Felt surprised that even on Monday, there was a line to wait. Luckily, one... person only waited for 10 minutes. Their serving was super fast, within 5 minutes. I chose black king, which was indeed superblack as shown in picture. Squid ink looked interesting to me. Overall, the soup broth was great! Chashu was tender and tasty.There were also some minced ground meat, colored in black, but tasted super good. Hopefully next time I can be back and tryother options. Read more
Ramen Nagi never fails to perform anywhere they go. Their ramen is so authentic and tastes very similar to the ones I had in... Japan. Broth is rich, noodles are firm, and the meat is tender. I get hungry just thinking about it. I came here on a Sunday at12pm and although the line seems long, the service is fast. I only waited less than 40 minutes fully expecting it to be a 2 hourwait. The servers are so attentive and friendly despite how busy they are. This is hands down the best ramen in the Bay Area,uncontested. Also, besides the main point, I've tried their Chicken Kaarage and it was so juicy. And the aioli sauce was so onpoint I wish they gave more. Give it a try! Read more
We stood in line for 20 minutes or so?. But it was worth every minute. I live in Japan and have ramen often?. This was every... hit as good! I had the vegetarian with potato patties, extra cabbage and green onions. The broth was a cauliflower broth thatwas perfect! Can?t recommend this place enough, stand in the line. Read more
