To go ramen, better have your own bowl for mixin it all. Karaage ramen extra spicy. Delicious!
When I drop my son off at school, we see this restaurant as it is directly across the street from the school. He and I are Ramen enthusiasts so we've been eyeballing it for a while now. Decided to pick him up from school where normally he would take a bus home just so we could try this place out. The restaurant entrance is on a submerged floor off a ramp and stairs. The entrance was a little odd to find and parking is in the back. When we came up to the place, we discovered that there was no dine in, so we made our order and proceeded to walk the street since thee order would take about 15 minutes. The photos you see here are for the to go experience. It was well packaged and did not spill on the ride home. After assembling it together, I sat down for the meal. I ordered the spicy Shumi Ramen because I go for anything on a menu that has a chilli next to the name. #fireeaters yah! This ramen is just ok. All the ingredients are solid. The noodles are a bit on the harder dense side, at least in our sitting but this is neither good nor bad. Stating it for those who have a preference. The broth was fine, but somewhat, plain. I want to be careful here because I am not dinging the restaurant and a sample set of 1 is not something you should overly judge an establishment for unless it is a notable problem. The one lingering impression I had coming off the meal was that it was deceptively thin looking when I put it together. Like there was not much to it. But it is one of the most dense Ramens I have ever had and walked away feeling stuffed. I checked with my son who can typically eat far more than me and he agreed that it made him feel really full. I am giving this 3 stars and would go back and try again but the experience did not leave me with a sense of the soup and noodle's character. At the same time, I would not talk anyone down if they wanted to try it for themselves.
So cute and delicious! :)
One of the best places to get boba
So cute and delicious! :)
Ordered the vegetable shumi ramen and was really impressed with the taste, freshness of the vegetables and kind staff. Highly recommend!
The classic boba tea with jasmine tea was great! You can choose black tea also. The mango lime tea with mango jelly was tangy and really good!
Good tea. A little bit expensive. No real seating. Just a small window to order and pick up food.
Ran into this little gem today across from Ohlone college. Perfect stop to quench my thirst during this 90+ weather day. Not overly sweet , just the way I like it! My grapefruit guava fruit tea got real fruit chunks!!! Love it. Support your local business by making a quick stop and get your boba fix.
This was the same spot as the Shumi Ramen place I dined in last year. It is a shame so many restaurants with great food didn’t survive. I hope this one does bc I LOVE BOBA drinks!I was pleasantly surprised that their default sweetness is at 25%, so I don’t have to tell them every single time like I do with other shops. I don’t like boba drinks that are too sweet. I bought 8 cups total and told them I’m not going home immediately and they put a bag of ice to help keep them cool. I thought that was very thoughtful! I would definitely come back here the next time I’m in the area.
