The Best Spots For Ramen In Santa Clara County

A bowl of ramen topped with green onion, seaweed and glistening sliced pork is just one option out of the plethora of different Asian cultures and dishes in Santa Clara County. Ditch your regular routine of late night Cup Noodles for a steaming bowl of authentic ramen at any of these ramen restaurants.

1. Santouka

Restaurant, Ramen, Asian, Japanese

Food court food hardly ever sounds appealing, but Santouka’s ramen is a delicious exception to that misconception. Choose between individual bowls of ramen or a meal with a rice bowl and sliced hard-boiled egg. Among their most popular orders is the Shio Ramen, a single bowl of ramen topped with seaweed, juicy slices of pork and green onions, served in a heavy salt broth. Santouka is a no-nonsense option for fast service and good portions. Orenchi Ramen | © City Foodsters/Flickr

2. Kahoo Ramen

Bar, Ramen, Japanese, Asian

Conveniently located next to Mitsuwa Marketplace is Kahoo Ramen. One of their most popular orders is the spicy miso ramen, which comes with a boiled egg, chopped green onion and lots of tender meat and vegetables. Although Santouka is in the same plaza, Kahoo Ramen has more food options with the characteristic crowded seating, boisterous atmosphere and dim lighting of a traditional ramen bar.
