Serious EatsOctober 29, 2013This intimate Japanese izakaya is the home of the original Ramenburger, offering different variations such as the Miso Ramenburger and the Veggie Ramenburger.
Gilt CityJanuary 12, 2012The Kaiseki tasting menu takes you through a range of flavors and textures in seven different dishes, starting with the sakizuke—amuse bouche—and finishing with a bowl of fresh, local fruit.- My current must-order: the Japanese breakfast at brunch. Past favorites: the chicken wings, the grilled tripe in sauce (RIP), and the oxtail ramen (RIP).
Ruby AnayaDecember 2, 2013Edamame hummus and taro chips are yummy! Ramen broth was a bit thick/salty, but noodles were great :)
Try the Loco Moco - #kvpinmybelly - Crazy good ground beef, gravy and fried egg over rice for #brunch in #SF Mission.
Brendan CurranNovember 10, 2014Really friendly service and inventive cocktails. Their ramen burger is very tasty.
Susan LohJanuary 17, 2013Nothing too special but great for groups. Grab a few pitchers of Sapporo, order as many small plates as your stomach desires, and enjoy a chill meal.
Ramen alert! New chef brings whole new beef broth ramen. Your choice of beef cheek, oxtail, beef tongue, or short rib.
Best chicken wings in the world. Be sure to save your leftover sauce to dip other stuff in too.
Cristi ScheyeDecember 22, 2014Awesome, friendly staff; edamame hummus and pork belly were very tasty.- Marco Henry NegreteMarch 6, 2013Smallest bowl of ramen I've ever seen, delicious though. I made a reservation and got here 45 min before they closed but was still rushed to order and told I would be last table of the night.
Alexa (@ladylexy) AndrzejewskiApril 8, 2011Try the Chicken Heart Skewers - I never thought hearts on a stick would be my thing... But these are SO tasty! #oishii
Yunah RhaJanuary 24, 2013Really fresh sashimi. Try to make it in time for the dinner dine about town!
Emily LeungOctober 9, 2011Grilled Pork Belly: not to be missed! Miso eggplant also good. Take advantage of HH 5-8pm!
Nancy WuApril 14, 2012Chicken karage and bacon-wrapped mochi were the highlights. Pork belly was alright, but tan tan men and ox tail ramen were terrible and overpriced. Walk the extra 3 blocks to Ken Ken Ramen instead-
Elaine OAugust 22, 2013Pork belly and chicken wings were good! Ramen burger was super greasy, noodles were nearly burnt and not worth the 40-minute wait. Service was eh. Promising but not a Mission must-do.
The ume and coconut sorbet with mango sauce is one of the best desserts I've had in a long time.
Carolyn TillieAugust 9, 2010Put yourself in Chef Nick or Owner Gil's hands and you won't be disappointed! The suimono salad is a favorite of mine!
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Gayle Pirie, chef of Foreign Cinema, eats here on her nights off. She loves the Chicken skin yakitori. Read more
Food is great! Their wings are seasoned with nuoc mam! Just like mom's!
Benjamin RoodmanAugust 27, 2010Maya recommends the Chicken Wings. I say this is a good date spot, everything is delicious!
Christine NgoApril 12, 2010Miso broiled black cod, yakitori sampler, tripe, yellowtail, beef tataki. Do it.
GaryApril 27, 2010get the potatoes with wild nori for a snack. it's a surprisingly good combination.
Karen ChuJuly 1, 2012Hyped way too much. Service was terrible and service staff were jerks. Can find better yakitori elsewhere like at Ippuku. Squid was undercooked, buns were undercooked. Only savior: eggplant.- The marinated kombu is delish. They make their own plum wine, too.
- Carolyn TillieJanuary 29, 2010Brussels Sprouts are *amazing* -- and don't leave without getting a Seagull Egg!
