A new ramen shop has opened up in the neighborhood. The fresh arrival to SoMa, called Tsuta Japanese Soba Noodles, is located in the Metreon shopping center at 155 Fourth St.
This is the first U.S. location of the ramen chain, whose original Tokyo location earned a Michelin star in 2016, the first ramen shop ever to do so, according to The San Francisco Chronicle. The new outpost of Tsuta Japanese Soba Noodles serves the chain's signature shoyu soba ramen flavored with black truffle oil, as well as miso- and shio-based varieties of the classic noodle soup. Add-ons are available, like pork belly, marinated egg and bamboo shoots, and the restaurant also serves a selection of rice dishes and sides.
The fresh addition has gotten off to a mixed start thus far, with a 3.5-star rating out of 20 reviews on Yelp, but it's still early days.
Choco S., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Sept. 30, wrote, "Even though the service is kind of a chaos, the ramen itself and broth taste decent."
Meanwhile, Cherylynn N. noted, "Food-wise, get the shoyu! It's the signature ramen for a reason. The appetizers aren't worth the wait."
