San Francisco, CA: Suzu Noodle House
Wow. Can you believe it’s already July??? It’s hard to believe the biggest holiday of the summer is upon us. My first post of the month is about Suzu noodles in San Francisco’s Japan town. Finally…can this be a decent ramen restaurant in the city? So far, all the good and popular restaurants have been in San Mateo or Burlingame which is quite a drive for ramen. It’s located on the lower level of the Japan town center and when we walked in, there was a line…which to me…was a good sign. The restaurant is pretty small with about six or eight 2-4 person tables. Most of the patrons seemed to get their ramen business done quick….in and out in about 15 to 20 minutes which made the wait not that bad. I ordered the mabo tofu ramen and anthony got the spicy negi (green onions). My broth was not bad…not the best I’ve had but not bad. When I ordered the mabo tofu I was a little concerned that the broth was going to be too thick but when they served it, I was happy to see that the consistency was more soupy than gooey. The really good thing about Suzu is their ramen noodles. It was on hit and perfectly al dente. I think anthony felt the same way about his ramen, thought the noodles were pretty stellar but the soup was only okay. Overall, I would visit this place again and try their shoyu and maybe the gyoza.
