My fiancé and I visited Rural Ramen on New Year’s Day while spending a couple of days in San Francisco, and it was a highlight of our trip. The ramen was absolutely delicious—while we’re no experts, this was hands down the best tonkotsu ramen we’ve ever had. The ambience was warm and pleasant, and t...

Great ramen, quick service and chill jazz music. I’ve been on a mission to hit all of SFs ramen places and this one is very good. I got the Tonkatsu Ramen and it was creamy, rich, and it had a huge portion of meat (more than any other ramen place I’ve been to) the slices were thick and tender. The n...

First time here with my wife and she has never had Japanese cuisine and she loved it. The ambient is calm and it's definitely a vibe. The waiter is very nice and welcoming.

Cute little spot with great ramen! The broth was flavorful, portions were adequate, and prices were reasonable. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making it a pleasant dining experience. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area

I went to Rural Ramen Bar for dinner, and unfortunately, the experience wasn’t great. First, I had to wait to be seated, which I didn’t mind too much. But once I sat down, no one brought a menu—I had to ask. It took quite a while before they even took my order, whi..." — **Neelu Shah** (a month ago)
