Nice ramen spot. Food and service was really good! I had the Black Garlic Deluxe and my wife got the Spicy Tantan Deluxe. Huge portions. Only thing I didn't like was paying the bill. They stand there next to you with a machine and review the bill with you. Then when you go to pay the lowest tipping option is 18% AND it's calculated with the SF Mandate included. Kinda shady in that regard. Other than that, great place for a nice bowl of ramen!
Came for lunch , pretty quiet .
Ordered black garlic ramen , noodle is thick one but cooking well , I love this noodle texture , very good match with creamy rich soup base .
Tender chashu is so delicious !
I parked at garage under the Nijiya supermarket building , easy and safe , one hour $2.00
Waraku i had it twice. First time it was very good. 2nd time it was not as good. As if the soup base was not well made. But then the first time the soup was decent. Both time I had the black garlic ramen.
I wish to go back for the 3rd time to see if it has gotten any better but I’ll give it a solid 4 stars
Nice place for tasty broth, and I was surprised by the beef over 🍚. The Ramen was 😋 and since broth flavor is 95% of Ramen, the food is worth the wait. For those that like casual experiences.
The Ramen here was REALLY good. I was so happy to get a chicken Ramen option that wasn't with a pork based broth like other places. Service was fast and friendly. Absolutely recommend and I'll definitely be back.
I got the black garlic tonkatsu deluxe. It was delicious, I just wished that they had hot chili oil. We also ordered the appetizers and they were good. I like the geso fries alot. There was 1 server only when we came in and he was bussing his tables as well. There were many customers that came in, but they would leave due to the waiting and no service right away. That wasn't a problem to us.
Really nice Ramen place minus the large waiting time! While we had gone to SF Japantown to eat at a different locale, most of the "famous" ramen bars were full. Luckily we found this one and boy weren't disappointed at all! Plus it's easy on the wallet as well 😄

My friends and I wanted ramen after shopping in Japantown and wanted to go somewhere I haven't gone before. We found Waruku and immediately wanted to try it. The place is small and has a clean, modern aesthetic. Staff were quick to seat us and take our order.
We got a bunch of appetizers to start. The gyoza was fine, not bad but not great. The chicken karaage was very good. It was moist and freshly cooked. Dipping it in the mayo added even more flavor. We also got brussel sprouts. I normally don't like brussel sprouts but these hit different. They were fried, doused in sauce, and covered in bonito flakes. It was crisp and full of salty flavor from the sauce and flakes.
Then I had my bowl of ramen: the Black Garlic Tonkatsu DX. It looked fantastic! Filled to the brim with toppings. I was a big fan of the chunk of marinated pork. It was so tender and you can tell that it has been marinated for a very long time. The egg was perfectly soft boiled and added creaminess to an already creamy tonkatsu broth. I only wish there was an option to add spice or that there was hot oil. The spice on the table added more flavor but not enough heat.
The dessert was really delicious! We ordered the Black Sesame Mont Blanc. The sesame cream in top had a tasty roasted sesame flavor and inside was a cream and cake. It wasn't overly sweet and was a great end to a delicious meal.
I left Waruku feeling satisfied and recommend checking it out if you haven't already. Definitely get the sesame dessert!
The shoyu is perfect when you want a lighter bowl of ramen, not too salty. I recommend crushing some garlic into it.
Fast service, with wait time being 10-20 minutes. This is an excellent choice for ramen. The broth is consistently good and the ramen always hits the spot. Every ramen on the menu is good but I find if you mix the spicy with the black garlic you get the best flavor possible!
