We had dinner last week right across the street of Beat Mazesoba and were appealed by its exterior design. Hence, we came to give it a try this week.The option on the menu wasn’t in a great variety and focuses on Mazeman & Raman. We got a Mussel Deluxe Pot and Beat Mazeman to share with a group of two. The portion was great enough with a reasonable price.Everything was amazingly delicious and delicate. We were impressed by their Mazeman, which could be tasted in three ways, no add-on, with vinegar & with rice. Each way had a different flavor and we really enjoyed it.Our favorite ingredient in the noodles was the braised pork belly, which was soft, tender and extremely tasty. The seafood in the mussel was fresh and cooked properly.
Upon walking in, my eyes are immediately drawn to the huge Seigaiha print in the bar area. This theme of blue waves continues on in their dishware and tokkuri. Aesthetics y'all.Mazemen, also known as abura soba, is a soup-less ramen dish served with various toppings and sauce. Definitely try the beat mazemen which is a combination of the shoyu and yuzu shio mazemens. By themselves, they're like little rays of sunshine in the middle of a rainy spring day. Together, they meld into the scorching beam of the sun in the midst of an icy winter afternoon. It really is that much more satisfying.Unfortunately my friend, having just returned from Japan, was not impressed with the ramen. Another miss was the hanger steak. It was oily and underseasoned. Stick with the appetizers and mazemens. One thing to note is the tenderness of the meats. The pork bellies and the steak were soft and succulent and the wings were moist and juicy. Major props to the girl working the night we went. She was the only one in the front of the house and was helpful and friendly despite being busy.
This place is one of my top Grub Hub go to's. Today I decided to eat in house, as usual everything was amazing but it tasted even more special since I was eating immediately in situ.I had my usual Beat Metzoba which is the brothless soba noodle ramon with pork belly, in house you can get a miso soup for a $1 extra if you wish, being my favorite dish from here, always a beautiful eyeful and just as delicious an experience. My start was Karr-Aged chicken bites which are Japanese fried chicken pieces, they were quite crisp on the exterior but moist and tender upon your first bite. The spicy mayo sauce and lemon were the perfect addition, I ate it all myself and was craving more, the portion is big enough to share for two. The main dish I had was Chasu Don which was a pork belly dish with a fried egg and other delicacies, alas it was too much for me to finish in one sitting so I had it packed to go. They packaged it very tenderly like an original to go order, how thoughtful!!The hangor steak is a regular favorite of mine as well and so are the Bao Sandwiches and the Blistered Shishido Peppers. I honestly don't think you can order badly here.The place has a really kool vibe as well with a wonderful modern minimalist style and cool contemporary tunes in the background to set the mood. They are covid compliant with sanitizing gel on every table and all staff wear masks. You are required as by the law to be vaccinated to enjoy indoor dining and it is courteously enforced. In more favorable conditions outdoor dining in the back patio is also available.I'm glad I came the staff were welcoming and professional and I will definitely visit again as time allows.

Very rare ramen options are served in this restaurant (without broth)! Something new and delicious! We had RIBS ($9) for an appetizer, Korean La GALBI DON ($21) beef, rice and wild mushrooms and BEAT MAZEMEN ($14) without broth.Everything was good, especially the Ribs. Enjoyed our time there.The restaurant has a decent selection of beers and other drinks.
First of all, great service! We were a table of 12 people, and the servers did a great job with taking each order and any extra things we requested (side condiments, additional orders, etc.). They allowed us to put our belongings on an extra chair so we could sit comfortably.The beat ramen is not a traditional ramen and does not come with soup, but is smothered in a delicious sauce. It comes with a mini portion of rice to mix with the sauce.The bahn mi fries were fire, too. Yumm!
Beat Mazesoba is a great new Japanese restaurant in this area, I’ve been here twice in the past month! I like that the menu isn’t too big while still having enough variety that I can come back here a few more times and still have different dishes to try out. The shoyu ramen is good but I definitely recommend the beat mazemen, it’s my first time having mazemen and it’s so good! The banh mi fries were good too but the main dishes are already so filling, I wasn’t able to finish it. The service here is also good, and the interior is very comfortable. Would love to stop by for happy hour someday. I highly recommend checking out this place if you’re in the area!
AMAZING NOODLES...BROTHLESS SOUP WAS SUPER INTERESTING AND DELICIOUS, GO FOR THE BEAT MAZESOBA IT HAS BOTH SPICY MINCED PORK AND PORK BELLY
A really special Japanese restaurant where you can eat mazemen. I think the portion is really small for the price. A little overpriced. The food are delicious nonetheless. Overall good experience. Plenty of seats in the restaurant. Street parking is available nearby. Bathroom is available. A good place for dinner with friends.
We ordered a ramen, a sticky rib a Mazemen and chicken skew. I like the ramen soup, it stated that it's made with Fish, pork and duck. So tasty but not too salty. The sticky rib is crsipy and tender. I think it's just try. Mazeme is a brothless thick noodle. I order the beat mazemen. It comes with chasho and minced pork. It's a bit salty. It also serves with a small bowl of rice rice. If eats with that, it will taste better. The chicken skew is just so so, not so impressed. Overall it's worth for a try. I will come back next time for the YYuzu cheesecake.
