    Ramen Sea is a good spot when you want something warm and satisfying without overthinking it. Their ramen is pretty good, and the specials keep it interesting. This latest time they had a semi- spicy shrimp ramen that packed a tiny bit of heat. The gyoza are a win too, crispy and flavorful and I almost ordered another plate. I visit in weekdays at lunch time. It's rarely busy and the service is quite attentive. Food vines very fast. It's a nice restaurant and I like to die by the window along Murphy Street where it's well lit and you can puerile watch.

    Me and my friends came to this restaurant after watching the wicked for good movie at the AMC nearby, we spotted the restaurant walking down murphwy street we hadn't really eaten all day and we're hungry. The food was excellent it was hot, full of flavor I ordered the tonkatsu and their pork belly and broth was excellent jaut the right amount of salty and just the right pork flavor. Their oolong tea is delicious. The service was excellent they helped us with all our needs promptly and were very friendly, the ambiance was quiet, cheerful, and relaxing. One of my friends loved the ramen so much he got 2 servings! Needless to say we will be back!

    Ebi shrimp ramen

    This is one of the iconic ramen places in Bay Area: Sunnyvale CA and I wanted to give it a try...waited in queue for about 15 mins and my daughter and I were seated at a four seater table next to the entrance. We had a variety style ramen. I had the special Ebi shrimp. One of the best broths and the spice level is kickass. Loved the texture of noodles and the richness of broth. The complimentary bean sprouts are tasty and be sure to order edamame too. Simple menu, full stomach!

    The wife and I haven't been here since we first started dating 7+ years ago and this place hasn't changed a bit. Food quality of ramen was fantastic with flavorful broths. Right amount of spice in mine. Biggest plus was how well they did with our 1 year old. They brought out the high chair, plastic spoons and bowls for her to use without even asking. Very great service and bomb food. Will be returning.

    "Black" Miso Kakuni  Ramen
    Francesca B.

    Great ramen and the service was amazing but the portions are pretty small for the price. There's also a lot of unnecessary add ons that are extra in comparison to other ramen places that would've thrown on these toppings for free. Good taste, excellent service, but you can definitely get a bang for your buck elsewhere

    Tonkotsu Ramen - yummy
    Eva L.

    Went back for more. Tried the calamari this time and Tonkotsu ramen with black garlic on the side. Calamari was good. It's lightly coated with seasoned bread crumbs instead of the more common thicker batter coating. Really good. The dip was mayo based and also had a little kick to it. They go really well together. It's nice that they offer either half or dul size appetizer. The Tonkotsu broth seemed lighter than last time but still enjoyed it. I just addded the roasted garlic oil to taste throughout the meal vs mixing it all at once. Kakuna pork in the ramen was also consistent with taste,yummy slightly sweet which is complementary to the more savory broth. Still good, friendly staff. Ebi ramen still so consistently good. It's also nice that they close pretty late for the area. They close at 930pm.

    Ebi ramen

    tiny ramen at the sunnyvale downtown. ramen was served on a plastic bowl, i wish there was a ceramic bowl which can contain the heat better. i had today's special ramen ebi (shrimp ramen) - the soup was flavorful, not fishy, half-boiled egg was great (only one half egg, not two half egg per the menu picture), the shrimp was overcooked, it's hard to chew. tonkontsu ramen was okay, the pork meat is tender. two stars due to the excessive after-food thirstiness, I was so thirsty after the meal, wonder how much MSG was there in the soup.

    Came to Ramen Seas with a friend on a weekday night. We were seated immediately. Staff was attentive and kind. We got takoyaki to share which was super good but very hot so don't burn your mouth lol. My friend got the veggie ramen and I got the tonkotsu spicy. They give a generous portion of pork and the egg was cooked perfectly! We both enjoyed the restaurant and would come back

    Came for dinner with a friend and a toddler. High chair, kiddo spoon, and a little cup: hooray! Only wish there had been a little bowl, so she could see what she was eating. Lol The folks were friendly and food was delish. The yaki-onigiri is so satisfyingly crunchy! Only complaint is the water tasted heavily of soap. Bummer

    Black curry
    Jasmin M.

    First time here? You MUST try the black curry. It was exceptional. The service is lackluster there was only two workers on a Sunday afternoon. Need more hands on deck to serve, refill waters and check in on tables. The ambience was very millennial core.

    Pork belly Kakuni and Kimchi Don
    Francie M.

    On my quest to try every restaurant on Murphy street. I actually didn't get ramen or Japense curry here because I wasn't very hungry and I saw they offered these "mini bowls" option, so I got the pork belly and kimchi. These were the perfect size of meat, kimchi, and rice for a medium appetite. My friends reported the curry rice was delicious as well, so maybe another time when I'm more hungry. Logistics: - indoor seating for sure, I can't remember whether they had outdoor seating onto Murphy Avenue or not - Murphy is closed so you'll have to walk here but it's close by Sunnyvale Caltrain station or several parking lots

    Ebi Ramen and Takoyaki

    The food is amazinnng, Its my go to place while I'm hungover. The staff is friendly. The place is super cozy too.

    Veg curry ramen
    Sumedha D.

    It a small restaurant with plenty of light. The service was good and fast. Both the veg and the shrimp ramen lacked flavor. It was not bad in taste but compared to other Ramen in the Bay Area I felt like it wasn't up to the mark. With that said my husband had the same ramen he had that night here a few weeks ago( veg curry ramen) and he found it to be delicious. Overall my 2 cents are that this place is a hit or a miss.

    Is dog allowed outside?

    We had a table in-front of the restaurant (not the back) and they allowed my puppy.

    Are they open for to go orders during COVID-19 SIP?

    Yes you can also order via door dash !!

    Anyone know if they're taking orders for pickup?

    Yes, I saw them taking orders today for pickup!

    Is there a way to accommodate a low carb diet here? Can you get shredded cabbage or something besides noodles?

    They have a gluten-free noodle substitute that works for me. :)

    Do they have any vegan/vegetarian options?

    Yes, vegan items are: seaweed salad, edamame, chilled tofu, avocado roll, chilled cucumber and tomato and kimchi. We have vege ramen*, ramen salad and agedashi tofu* are vegetarian. (*Vege ramen and agedashi tofu have fish based broth)

    Can the chilled Ramen Salad be made vegetarian? thanks!

    Yes! Keep in mind the sauce contains egg, but otherwise, just ask for “no pork” and it’ll be vegetarian. Thanks for asking!

    Can the vegetable ramen be made vegetarian (no fish broth)? From the menu, there do not appear to be any vegetarian options here.

    Hi thank you for asking the question. I am a manager from Ramen seas. Actually, Vegetable Ramen… 

    Would it be possible to seat a party of 15? I've been trying to contact the restaurant but have had no luck.

    I strongly believe your entire party has to come in right at the time they open. This restaurant is small and they get very busy. Their policy is first come first serve, and whole party must be present to be seated.

    Do they serve Stir fry ramen?

    Hi Eddie, I don't believe so, sorry!

Overall: 3.5/5 Restaurant is located in a strip mall so easy parking and the restaurant itself is clean. Service was fast and attentive and food was out fast. Chicken Karaage as an appetizer was good, a bit heavier on the batter than other places, but overall a good crunch. 6 pieces for around $13. Tried the aries Aruba soba and the Saturn ramen. The Saturn had a nice large price of soft shell crab and the broth was nice and light with a hint of seafood flavor. Noodles had a good texture. This continued with the Aries, which had excellent soba noodles, bouncy and the texture was right. However, the flavor was also a bit light and one note. In addition, everything we ordered was supposed to be spicy, and that didn't come through in any of the dishes.

    Tried the Uzumakiya Udon, Tonkotsu Ramen and Hojicha Panna Cotta…read more The big difference between the Uzumakiya Udon and Tonkotsu Ramen is the broth. Uzumakiya had beef broth, supposedly oxtail broth. It's lighter in consistency than the ramen broth. Tasted more meaty without being heavy or fatty. The noodles were thicker but not chewy. The chashu (pork) slices that came with it was tender with just enough fat to give it the umami flavor. The Tonkotsu Ramen had the thinner noodles. The broth was creamier and richer than the beef broth but not bold or complex compared to other ramen broths I've had but still has a nice balance of flavor between the pork and dashi. Had the same chashu slices. Had more umami flavor than the Udon. Love the Hojicha Panna Cotta. Very smooth consistency. I felt like I'm eating something fancy but not heavy. Combination of light roasted tea and milk flavor. Just the right amount of sweetness. Enjoyed this the most. They had a $3 discount on their Udon. Food came out quickly. Staff were welcoming.

    This review is long overdue. I've been here many times, and it always satisfies my ramen cravings…read more If you want to minimize the wait, I recommend going on a weekday and getting there early. Even then, the lines can get pretty long, but they are efficient and turn tables over quickly! My go to order is the red king with firm thick noodles and level 5 spice. I usually choose normal or heavy oil/garlic depending on my mood. I usually prefer chashu but I think kakuni (pork belly) is the better choice here as it is more tender and flavorful. It's really nice how they have so many customization options so you can adjust the ramen to your preferences. I enjoy spicier food and think level 5 is a solid medium so you can definitely go higher if you like more spice. I have also tried the black king, which has a more unique umami flavor from the squid ink. The chicken karaage is a popular appetizer, but I think it is just okay. Street parking only but usually not too difficult to find a spot!
