Katanaya
Amidst surroundings that range from modest (paper and clothespins lamp shades) to tacky (avocado green walls and plastic blinds), one can enjoy the best bowl of ramen I have had.   The broth was VERY nice and the noodles!   They were tasty and had that chewy texture that can be all too elusive in any pasta dish.   These noodles had body and texture that was retained right through the last slurp!   The shoyu ramen was perfectly composed--even the half egg nested prettily among the noodles.   A bowl of nabeyaki was also excellent, as were the gyoza.   In the words of my dining companion, the meal was "Yummy!"   Next time, I would skip the California Roll and just stick to the basics for a fine meal.

This is by far the best ramen restaurant in the San Francisco bay area. The food, including all types of ramen and gyoza, is consistently fresh and well-prepared, and chef is friendly and willing to discuss his cooking with you. Once you have gone to Katanaya, all other SF ramen shops will pale in comparison!
