It was great to see an Asian option early in the morning when other restaurants are closed. However, the product dies not deserve it's $13 price tag. The broth was very watery and the ramen came out lukewarm. Not was I dispensed any utensils to eat with. Accordingly I was very disappointed.
If you arrive SFO at night there’s very little meal option, but if you stay at Aloft SFO (as well as Sheraton next door) you can have hot Ramen anytime with Yo-kai automatic cooking robot.\\n\\nArriving late at nigh, their hot soup noodle really is a life saver, and it is cooked within a minute.\\n\\nThe big Yo-Kai machine is located in the lobby of Aloft, where there is a generously ample lobby area with a lot of table and sofas, you can have fresh hot noodle soup right away. They have 15-20 kinds of noodles and rice dish, ranging from traditional Tonkotsu Ramen/ Shoyu Ramen to Taiwanese or Korean soup noodles, as well as rice dishes with Teriyaki chicken or pork Chasiu bowl.\\n\\nThey also have 2-3 plant based noodle/rice dishes if you are vegan.\\n\\nYou can pay with credit card or airline voucher.
So this really is noodle soup vending machine! You push a few buttons and your piping hot noodle soup comes out of a slot in the box a minute later. And you know what? The food is surprisingly decent! So, while I would probably rate the food quality 3 stars overall, I'm giving this experience an extra star purely for the novelty and entertainment value.I ordered a black garlic ramen noodle soup and it was quite good! The noodles were reasonably springy and while the broth was a bit watery, it was flavored properly. The pork slices were surprisingly decent!And at $12 per bowl, you're not going to break the bank here!
