    Great tasting ramen!…read more My family and I made this place a pit-stop for dinner on a Sacramento to Los Angeles trip. Our original target was the Fresno location, but due to a GPS entry error, we ended up at their Clovis location! It was a little longer drive than usual, but still well-worth the drive. And besides, we were on a family long weekend break so who cares about distance... Our orders were quickly taken on the counter and we were off to find our table. A lot of places to choose from inside and outside seating was also available. And the place was nicely decorated and well-lit! Feels comfortable to dine inside! The menu was quite expansive. And you even have the choice of minor changes to the regular menu. I ordered an Oxtail Ramen...a first of this kind for me, so I just had to have it. And it passed with flying colors! Weird ingredient...but absolutely tasty! And at a really affordable price range! You just have to try our this place when you're in the area! You will love it!

    I came back to Ramen Hayashi for a second try after my first visit left me a bit underwhelmed, and…read moreI'll say right away, this visit was a noticeable improvement. The first time I tried the tonkotsu ramen as takeout and gave it 2 stars. The noodles were soggy from the start and the broth just didn't hit the depth of flavor I was expecting. It felt like something was missing. This time, I dined in and ordered both the spicy miso ramen and tonkotsu ramen, plus a side of chicken karaage. Eating onsite made a difference right away, the noodles held up and the overall taste of the ramen was significantly better. The spicy miso ramen was good, but I was honestly hoping for a stronger miso punch and a bit more heat. It leaned a little milder than expected, though still enjoyable. The tonkotsu this time was better balanced than my first visit. The chicken karaage was good as well. Crispy, light batter, juicy inside really solid fried chicken. I personally would've liked a squeeze of lemon and maybe some Japanese mayo on the side to elevate it even more, but that's just preference. Overall, I feel like this place redeemed itself on a second visit, especially dining in. I'll need to come back to try more of their specialty ramens.

    Plenty of uncovered parking just before opening. We arrived 10 min early and were able to sit down…read morein the waiting area although it got full right at 11 am when it opened. This was a Tuesday afternoon. We both got the all you can eat and for the price, we did well. Everything came out hot and fresh. We ordered Spicy Salmon Roll, Avocado and Cucumber roll, Shrimp Tempura Roll, an order of Taro Tempura (6 slices), Vegetable Tempura (Eggplant, taro root, broccoli, sweet potato), Broccoli Tempura (6 florets). spicy salmon hand roll. All were delicious. The place was packed by the time we left around 11;45. Get there early!

Our waitress was very attentive, and the food came out quickly. Nothing was phenomenal, but everything was fine and cooked properly. The gentleman bringing our food was rushing too much, and when he reached a plate out towards me to hand it off, the sweet chili style sauce slid off and dumped down my blouse, into my shirt, all over my Apple Watch, and down my side onto my pants and the bench seat. Unfortunately, the busboy just stood there saying nothing. I asked for napkins and he quickly brought them, and never apologized. The waitress came back by and mentioned she heard we had an accident and she was sorry about that. We were not comped in any way. That would have been a of show excellent customer service, but instead I was just left with a ruined blouse and sticky and stinky for half of my meal. Overall, a decent experience and decent food, but I hope the bus boy moved a little more carefully from now on! And my goodness, an apology from him would have been great. Happy Mother's Day lol

It's rich without being heavy, perfectly seasoned, and you can actually taste the quality of the beef in every bite. Nothing about it felt like an afterthought side dish, it was easily one of the standout plates of the night. And then the seafood risotto... honestly unreal. Creamy, flavorful, and loaded with seafood that actually tasted fresh, not rubbery or overcooked. You can tell they take their time with it. What really made the whole experience next level was our waitress, Kammi. She had that rare mix of being super attentive without hovering. Our drinks were always refilled before we even had to ask, she timed everything perfectly, and she knew the menu inside and out. When we asked for recommendations, she didn't just list items, she actually described them in a way that made it easy to choose, and she was spot on with everything. You can tell she genuinely cares about people having a good experience, not just turning tables.cThe place was clean, service was quick, food came out hot and beautifully presented, and the vibe just felt easy and enjoyable. One of those dinners where everything just hits.

    We've been to Shobu twice now, and it's quickly become one of our favorite Japanese restaurants…read more What I love most is the variety on the menu. Whether you're craving sushi, teriyaki, or ramen, they really have something for everyone. The sushi and sashimi are incredibly fresh -- honestly some of the freshest fish we've had at any sushi restaurant. It tastes like the chef went out and caught it that morning. The 14-piece sashimi platter with a couple of rolls was more than enough for two people, and everything was excellent quality. The ramen is also fantastic, but fair warning: the bowls are HUGE, so definitely come hungry. Their garlic edamame is absolutely addictive, and we really enjoyed the poke in the seaweed poke salad, though the dish does lean very heavily on the seaweed, so just keep that in mind before ordering. Cassidy is new to the restaurant and waited on us. an Shewas wonderful -- super friendly, attentive, patient, and just genuinely great service all around. The only downside was the new menu design. The font is extremely tiny, printed on a small laminated sheet, and honestly very difficult to read. Hopefully they make the text larger in the future because the food itself is outstanding. Overall, highly recommend Shobu if you're looking for fresh sushi, excellent sashimi, hearty ramen, and great service.
