Cafe Sketches: Umai Ramen House, San Francisco 02/2023

In Japantown San Francisco, there are some fantastic, overly popular ramen houses. The problem is that they are so popular, you end up waiting for two hours to get a seat. If you dig in a little deeper, there are still fantastic ramen houses that are slightly under-the-radar. We found such a place at Umai Ramen House. It's a smaller restaurant, but the ramen is just as delicious.

I got the standard Tonkotsu ramen but my wife selected the Tonkotsu with a large chicken leg. It's a pretty large leg for ramen, so we ended up taking the chicken leg home and having it for lunch the next day.

Tonkotsu with chicken leg - it takes up half the bowl

So, next time you're waiting for 2 hours for a seat at the table, try some of the other hidden treasures in Japantown San Francisco.
