Great staff and setup. Ordering was a little clunky, and the broth had a very strong flour or cornstarch taste that was a little off putting. Would certainly give it another try though. Pretty cool little place!
Great Ramen and great experience!The only thing that i will suggest is to have Shrimp and Vegetarian Ramen. Beer menú was good and the service impecable ✌️Oh and try the Vegetarian Gyozas yummy!
The San Diego ramen tour continues - this time with Tajima Ramen Bar. Came for happy hour, which really has great deals. ($3 draft Sapporo and $5 Karaage is great, in my opinion, and the chicken was excellent.) I’d say the great happy hour and prompt service is why I’m giving 4 stars, because the ramen itself was pretty underwhelming. I’m not sure if it’s being done differently now than it was in the past, because my bowl of Tajima Ramen just didn’t look the same as previous bowls. Broth was pretty bland, the noodles seem almost like instant ramen noodles, and the toppings just weren’t doing it for me. The ramen bowl I’d rate at about a 3/5, and would say there are definitely spots nearby where you can get a better bowl. The hunt continues.
Absolutely stellar ramen. I wouldn't call myself a ramen expert, but I'm at least a ramen enthusiast. If it were karate belts I'd say I'm maybe a brown belt in ramen. Anyways... LOVED Tajima.The girlfriend got the Tajima ramen which is a tonkotsu style, and I got the spicy sesame. Both were bursting with flavor! We sat outside on a cold night under the comfort of a warm patio heater and practically inhaled these delicious bowls of noodles and goodness.If we didn't live in Arizona we'd become regulars here.
Very hyped. Went in here due to the high ratings. The broth was so watery, I almost thought it was Pho (a flavorless one of course). To add to that, the servers were very uninterested. They behaved as though they were giving off charity despite a hefty price + tip (which you need to pay beforehand). I mean they even pulled a face when we asked for a fork. Not going here again.
$30. Dollars for Bug SoupYou gotta be kidding me
Funky atmosphere, nice selection of beers, and 3 different tasty ramen selections. We also enjoyed the spicy garlic edamame appetizer. Service was quick and attentive. Would recommend for all of your ramen needs! ?
Pay at the door, be seated and served with ease and speed! Drinks and food came in no time! Salmon poke bowl, wontons, and Tajima ramen. I loved the ramen! Pork is sweet and tender, my favorite chashu I've had in SD! QUICK and kind service.
great Ramen!! service was good. seats limited since it was busy on a rainy Monday night!!
I really like the vibe at Tajima, all the locations. Food is great, presentation is A+. Prices are reasonable. The people they hire seem to convey the mission statement and always make me feel welcomed. Keep up the great work.
