San Jose, CA: Okayama Japanese Cuisine
We had dinner here on Sunday and unfortunately, the food was only so so. There was nothing really exciting about the restaurant or the menu except for one of the specials on the wall and their “secret” ramen menu.
The special: tempura edamame. Very fun to eat.
They don’t offer ramen on the main menu so you have to ask the waitress. The small paper menu lists 3 options: shoyu ramen, shoyu ramen with tempura and shoyu ramen with california rolls. I ordered the basic shoyu ramen which had spinach, nori, bamboo, pork, egg and green onions. It turned out to be quite tasty. The broth had a nice shoyu flavor with a hint of sweetness. I would come back here if I were in the area and craving shoyu ramen but I wouldn’t make a special trip.
