IPPUDO Berkeley in California

"We stumbled upon this place while we were in Berkeley and wanted to give it a try. It did not disappoint! They have akamaru veggie ramen - one regular and one spicy. Loved the spicy ramen. My friends loved the ippudo chicken buns too. Nice interiors. Service was quick . Staff was friendly. Will come back again!"

"SO good. I came here at least 30+ times over the past year and was never disappointed. The ramen is delicious, and they have great veg options as well. (daizu no chikara) miso is a must try, veg or not, really hits the spot. only downside is that it is $25+ everytime, so certainly a bit pricey but worth it imo. (all the pictures are from seperate visits LOL)"

"Everything taste good , flavorful but not too salty, the fried chicken is bomb ! Gotta give a try! Much more Expensive than regular ramen or noodle place"

"Ippudo Berkeley never disappoints! From the moment you walk in, the friendly staff makes you feel welcome and taken care of. The food is just as incredible—the airy steam buns are perfectly soft and filled with flavorful goodness. The crunchy spicy karaage has the ideal balance of crispiness and heat, making it an absolute must-try. And the ramen? Simply outstanding. The sesame oil broth adds a rich depth that makes every bite comforting and satisfying. Whether you're a ramen enthusiast or just looking for an amazing meal, Ippudo Berkeley is the place to go!"

"for a quick and solid bowl of ramen definitely go here the noodles are always well made. sometimes this locations quality differs but overall great bowl every time I go. My favorite is the shoyu and tsukemen when it was around"

"The service was great as soon as we got there with their attentive and friendly staff. Ordered a few different ramens and my miso tonkatsu was the least favorite. Says more that the other were slightly better, not that mine wasn't good. The karagee (sp?) chicken was very good so can see why that's so popular. Although it is a chain, will recommend giving them a try if you haven't before."

"Chicken buns are delicious - must try. I ordered the spicy ramen with wavy noodles kata and an egg. Highly recommend. Spicy, but the rich flavor still shined through. There is street parking across the street. I came on a Saturday at lunch and parking was not a problem."

"One of my favorite ramen places! If you get a bun, the chicken bun is a must-have. The crispness, crunch, and the sauce are incredible. The noodles were well-cooked and the broth was delicious. My friend and I shared one bowl and it was the perfect portion for us since we had a late lunch and stopped by a dessert shop before an early dinner. We thought we had to wait for 20-30 minutes for a table for 2 at a busy dinner hour but we didn’t wait long! About 15 minutes. Reasonable prices, and friendly staff. When we come back we’re trying the other buns and getting extras of the chicken bun!"
