    Taka Ramen in San Jose is a true standout for Japanese comfort food. We started with the seasoned edamame—simple yet addictive—and perfectly crispy gyoza with a flavorful filling. The Tonkotsu ramen stole the show with its rich, creamy broth, tender pork, and perfectly chewy noodles. The Katsu Curry Chicken was equally impressive, featuring a crispy cutlet paired with fragrant curry over rice. On top of the incredible food, the service was second to none, with attentive servers and a warm, welcoming staff that made the experience even more enjoyable. Taka Ramen is a must-visit for any ramen lover!

    Despite many empty tables, the waiter refused to seat us because one friend hadn’t arrived. Meanwhile, another incomplete group was seated behind us.All of my friends saw that group was seated. My friends said that was racist for sure, I can’t tell but their service is indeed inconsistent and cold.The floor and table are sticky as well.Food is not bad with fair price, but we won’t visit this place anymore.

    Was craving a bowl of ramen for some reason, decided to try this place out, glad I did.Ramen is good, meaning I'd come back here for ramen. They also some other dishes I also would try later, like croquettes and curry, good gyosa, a tonkatsu curry dish.Definitely deserves a return visit.

    Ramen broth was flavorless!Tried the Vegan ramen, and didn't like it at all. It was average, at best. Tofu had zero seasoning -- totally bland!I read reviews here before trying the place, and most reviews spoke very well about the broth. I'm not sure if the day I visited was an exception, but no spice/seasoning on most veggies + bland broth was honestly not the combination I enjoyed.Service and ambience were amazing. Parking can be a little challenging.Vegetarian options: Just or vegetarian/vegan options.
