Yeah this review is long overdue. I've been here probably at least 5 times now and will be back in the future. Normally, I'm a Tsukumen hater. My first experience was Taishoken, and I maintain that it's trash. Fundamentally, my issue with the dish is that the cold noodles mix with the hot dipping sauce, creating a lukewarm final product. I prefer my food to either be hot or cold. Not really the middle. Shugetsu solves this by offering hot noodles. Dip your steaming hot noodles into the scalding dipping sauce for a delicious experience. Another busted thing about this place is that, for the same price, you can get any size portion of noodles. Fellow members of value town would be tempted to get the XL for maximum value. It's definitely enough noodles for 2 meals! Finally, I also highly recommend their Aburasoba. It's a delicious dry mixing ramen that reminds me almost of Mongolian bbq. The meat is so tender and scrumptious. Looking back, I hope this restaurant flies under the radar cuz the venue is quite small. If it gets busy the parking lot wouldn't be able to accommodate. read more

Shugetsu - Large Tsukumen - Ramen Near Me - Fremont, California

I ordered the Shugetsu Tsukemen with Marinated Egg. We get to choose the noodle size for all the same price - regular, large, extra large, or mega. I chose large. The noodles were nice and chewy. I enjoyed the soup flavor. Dipping the noodles in the soup was delicious. The only thing about the noodles (before dipping it into the soup), is that they end up sticking together and it's hard to pull apart with just chopsticks. My noodles became like a wad of yarn. I ended up using my soup spoon to break up the noodles so that it was manageable. My friend ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen. She chose mild for the level of spice and chose thick noodles. She enjoyed her ramen although it was a little spicy for her. read more

Tried the spicy miso tsukemen. it was actually a bit spicy not like other spicy miso where you barely taste the spice but there was also a bit of chili oil if that bothers some people. Lastly, you get to choose whatever size of noodles you want... They all cost the same so you might as well choose the largest size and you can save half for a later meal! I was essentially able to create two meals out of one order. Food: Spicy miso ramen- Noodles- 6.5/10. Got the hot noodles they tasted whatevers kinda basic. Maybe I should have went with cold. Broth- 8/10. Very flavorful. Really liked it and liked the spice but didn't love coughing up chili oil. rinated egg- 9/10. Solid good egg Grilled pork belly- 10/10. OMG so good I highly recommend adding this on. The char is so good on the meat and tho the meat is a slight thick cut, it's still very tender. Chashu Rice- 9/10. Bomb but could have better ratio of meat to rice. Overall, everything was generally delicious. Will be back next time maybe to try their original tsukemen or the ramen read more

Bummed that the San Mateo location closed but happy it reopened in Fremont. Easy parking in a strip mall right off Fremont Blvd. Compared to the San Mateo location the Fremont location is bigger with more room between tables and brighter. I like the Fremont location better. Shugetsu's specialty is tsukemen and the ramen is also very good. We started with kaarge chicken. Perfectly cooked, light sauce, highly recommended. 2 had the tsukemen with was great as usual. I had my usual ramen which was very good. We also tried the abura soba for the first time. Instead of a dipping sauce the noodles are served dry with a couple of oils your pour over. Interesting but not our favorite. Good food, reasonable prices and good service. read more

We really enjoyed our first time at Shugetsu and we'll be back when the ramen craving hits. There isn't that many parking options, but since it's close to downtown Fremont, you can just park elsewhere and just walk. They have anime posters and figurines to look at while you're there. Fun for our boys to see the series they're all into right now. They have TVs that had anime playing at the time. They have high chairs for you if you need them. It's spacious in there so you don't feel cramped. I tried Tsukemen, where the noodles come separate from the broth. I asked the waitress the best way to have the noodles because they will ask if you want the noodles cold or warm. She suggested cold because that's how they normally eat it so that's what I did. I'm glad I did because it was delicious. The broth had pork bits in it and you can taste all the flavorful char in it. I'm now hungry and want some. read more

Yummmm!!! I just love noodles. Staff was helpful and nice. First time trying cold ramen. And seriously love it. Got the shugetsu tsukemen special. And the fried chicken. The chicken was nice and crispy. And the noodles were perfect. The soup wasn't too salty. It wasn't crowded during Wednesday lunch. Will probably crave this often! Lol read more

5 stars -- easily one of the most satisfying ramen experiences I've had in a while. The pork belly ramen was incredible. It leans lighter, more shoyu and bonito-forward, which made it feel clean but still deeply flavorful. The broth came out piping hot (the way it should be), topped with fresh green onions, bamboo shoots, and a perfectly soft-boiled egg. The homemade noodles had that ideal chewy bite that really tied everything together. The tsukemen was just as impressive -- rich, smoky, and super flavorful. The pork belly was tender and comforting, and the dipping broth had a depth that kept me going back for more. And the chicken karaage? One of the best I've had. It came out dangerously hot (in a good way), with skin so crispy it almost snapped like a chip. The sauce was packed with flavor -- soy sauce, green onions, and grated radish gave it a punchy, savory finish that elevated the whole dish. Would absolutely come back again. read more

I discovered today that I am not a bold broth person. And the Shugetsu Tsukemen's soup was very, very strong lol. I should have asked more questions on what's in it (there's no description), but I think for my flavor profile I just prefer something lighter so I will try the Miso one next time. Shugetsu Tsukemen Special ($20): It was an extra $2 for another half of a marinated egg and 3 pieces of pork slices, which was a fair price. I opted for cold noodles and the regular size, and I don't know why I chose regular when all the noodle portion sizes were the same price??? Friends. Go for at least large, because you can always take home your leftovers and have Tsukemen again (I don't expect anyone to finish their soup since you're just dipping noodles in it). Non-Spicy Miso Tsukemen Special ($22): My friend ordered it with hot noodles and really liked it! I would get this spicy for the next visit, and I missed it on the menu that they will add extra soup at the end. read more

Truly a delightful little ramen shop with amazing noodles. The interior looked clean as far as I could see, and the staff are so very polite and friendly. The broth of the Shugetsu Tsukemen is not like your typical ramen-like broth. Instead, it's met with a savory and tangy flavor that becomes a bold dipping bath for the house-made noodles. If you find the broth too salty just ask for some hot water to water it down. The char on the meat in the broth was delicious and distinct. The marinated egg was perfectly cooked and marinated. And last but not least, the noodles were my absolute favorite component as they were a lovely thick consistency and had a great bounce to them. I got a regular size and it was more than enough for me. If you're a fan of anime and ramen then definitely check out this shop. Loved the figures and overall down-to-earth aesthetic. Will definitely be back to try out more options on the menu! :) read more

Great ramen spot right behind Bill's Cafe. No wait on a Friday at 7pm but it was decently crowded. I've tried the tsukumen and shugetsu ramen in the past and I think I prefer the shugetsu ramen, the broth is so clear and tasty but both are good. Noodles are thin and firm. It's a bit hidden but worth seeking out, possibly the best ramen spot in Fremont. read more

Shugetsu - Shugetsu Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Fremont, California

I've been wanting to try this spot for quite some time now. It's a cute decent size restaurant, has a nice wall of anime figurines. Very nice staff, my waiter explained the noodle options and the menu is very easy to understand. Today I decided on getting the spicy miso tsukemen with the XL portion of noodles. This is 400 grams of noodles. About little more than 3 cups of carbs. It is a LOT of noodles. When the plate of noodles showed up, there was some regret building in my head wondering about my food life choices but in the end, I slurped it all up! Only disappointment was they didn't come fill up my dipping bowl with chicken broth after I was done with the noodles. I would've loved the experience in its entirety given it was my first time trying tsukemen. When you order the tsukemen, it's the same price regardless of what size noodles you want. They have regular (200 grams) large (300g) XL (400g) and Mega (500g). If you order the broth ramen, there's 3 noodle size options, regular, large and mega (+$5). Overall, I'll be back soon. read more

Such a quaint little ramen spot! We went here on a beautiful Saturday and surprisingly only waited for about 15 minutes. Simple menu and ordering was very quick. Our food came out quick as well. I got the tsukemen and it was delicious!!! Will definitely be coming back with friends and family. read more

There's no wait on Saturday dinner time. The dip noodles (tsukumen). are same price regardless of size, the dipping broth is nice with the right flavor. We opted for tsukumen with marinated egg for $18, the egg was nice but it's cold. The noodles were sticking together like a big dough, I am having some trouble to get them out and dip them into the dipping broth. Shugetsu ramen is the chicken + soya + bonito broth not the normal tonkotsu broth. It's okay, we got the grilled pork belly, it's awesome Love the fried chicken, so far the best I had. It's crispy with tender meat, the minced ginger sauce is a great addition to the chicken. read more

Honestly, one of the best ramen places in all of California. Even better than a lot of ramen eateries in Kyoto. Come here if you love steaming hot ramen with rich, savory broth. Comforting and soul-soothing ramen topped with tender meat and fresh vegetables. Great service! Usually quite a significant wait time on weekends, but very worth it. We love this place! read more

Shugetsu - So yummy! - Ramen Near Me - Fremont, California

Came here on a random Thursday for lunch with my mom, who loves ramen. She was craving ramen, and I was craving tsukemen, so we decided to give this place a try. The menu is pretty straightforward and not overwhelming, which I appreciated. I have pretty high standards for tsukemen, so I ordered the Spicy Miso Tsukemen. Shugetsu met more than half of my expectations, I'd give my bowl a 7/10. My mom ordered the Shugetsu Ramen, and I think she really liked it, she almost finished her entire bowl, which says a lot. For appetizers, we ordered the fried chicken and takoyaki. The takoyaki was good, but the fried chicken was a bit cold when it was served. Now for the downsides. While we were eating, there was a cockroach on the floor that crossed from one table to another. That was definitely the biggest letdown and honestly hard to ignore. The second issue was the wait time. We waited almost an hour for the appetizers, and then another 25 minutes for our ramen and tsukemen. It felt longer than expected, especially for lunch. Will I go back? Probably?? If I'm really craving a good bowl of tsukemen. But I do hope they improve cleanliness and timing because that makes a big difference in the overall experience. read more

Ordered via Uber and got to try dipping ramen for the first time. It was kinda good. I like that the noodles remained bouncy and firm compared to the typical ramen. After eating the whole meal I felt like i had a huge sodium intake due to the amount of sauce I was eating. Overall not a bad experience, the marinated egg was a nice contrast just wish there were a little more toppings included like typical ramen to dip aside of just the noodles. read more

Shugetsu is a new tsukumen noodle shop that recently came to Fremont Vibes give off very Japanese anime aesthetics and the servers are nice and helpful Parking is easy Abura soba was solid noodles with great flavor and had great chewy noodles The tsukumen was also solid and the sauce itself was a bit watery but still good enough to cling to the noodles Chicken karaage was unique and had great flavor as well Overall good vibes good food!

I'd come here with my friend for the first time last week. I was pleasantly surprised as they have a cute anime wall and even the bathroom is decorated nicely. Very cozy vibes and the food was good. Service was good as well. We came a little close to closing time, but didn't feel rushed or anything like that. It's a little hard to find but luckily my friend and I were able to find and try it. The menu isn't very extensive, which makes it easy to narrow down what you want to get. However, I would like to see maybe some rice dishes offered as well if that's possible in the future. Overall, I enjoyed my green onion ramen and it was perfect for a somewhat overcast and cold day. I'll definitely be back. read more

3.5 stars I ordered the charcoal grilled pork belly ramen and we shared the fried chicken/karaage. what's unique about this tsukemen/ramen place is that you can ask for extra noodles at no extra cost but the regular size was enough for me. I did not like the broth for the charcoal grilled pork , it was dark and oily. Maybe the regular shugetsu ramen would've been a better choice if it had tonkotsu broth, i'll ask next time. The fried chicken sauce was pretty good but the chicken pieces were kind of jagged and big, not as gum friendly for those with sensitive gums like me lol read more

This is the place to get a signature Tsukemen, a traditional Japanese dish meant to be consumed by dipping ramen in the flavorful broth. Shugetsu, a relatively new addition to the Japanese cuisine scene in Fremont, has made quite an impression with their simple menu of Tsukemen and Ramen dishes that come with your size preference of noodles (from 200g to 500g in weight). With a few options for its soup base, you'll be able to quickly choose the best combination of ingredients to satisfy your cravings. After making your way into the main parking lot, which is typically full and features extremely tight spots, you'll be able to see Shugetsu in all its glory sharing space with aged buildings of former shop tenants. Because of the vacancy, however, you'll be fortunate enough to find a spot relatively close to the restaurant and if not, just around the corner. Upon walking into the brightly lit dining room, you'll catch a glimpse of the corner populated by well-known anime figurines and collectibles. Do make your way to appreciate the display and if you don't recognize any, I highly encourage you to research and watch some of them! Once seated at our table, we perused the menus that were already made available and the staff provided cups for us to drink from the already served pitcher of water. The menu is broken up into appetizers/side dishes, rice, tsukemen and ramen. Toppings are all pretty standard across their dishes which include the marinated egg, bamboo shoots, green onions, and charcoaled grilled pork belly but the soup base is what makes each dish stand out. We got a variety to get a good taste and were quickly won over with the quality, value, and presentation. Fried chicken (karaage) - comes in two sizes, 3 or 5 pieces, and each piece is extremely crispy with skin intact! Charcoal grilled pork belly rice - a hearty bowl of white rice with three succulent pieces of pork belly and a healthy heap of green onions. It was a light meal compared to the tsukemen and ramen bowls. Shugetsu tsukemen special - with a mega dose of noodles, this bowl of umami-rich soup was the perfect pairing. Dipping in the soup and slurping it all up helped me slow down and enjoy each bite. The noodles were chewy and tender, the bowl was loaded with pieces of flavorful meat, and the soup was savory until the very last drop. Miso tsukemen special - more mild in flavor compared to the Shugetsu special but still enough umami to excite the tastebuds. The broth was clearer so perfect for those looking for a lighter pairing with noodles. The staff were quick, efficient and friendly throughout the service. They handled the ever growing waitlist quite well - the place gets packed during peak meal times so come early or put your name down and be prepared to wait. Fortunately, there are a couple monitors broadcasting anime for entertainment. Overall, Shugetsu gets my vote for one of the best newcomers of the year, not only for the quality of food but also for their unique take on dipping noodles. This anime-themed shop makes a fun atmosphere and although the theme isn't tied into the food which could be an area of growth, it does immerse you in the Japanese culture and enhance the dining experience. The food is reasonably priced for the amount of noodles you could potentially order and its freshness out of the kitchen. Don't take my word for it but hopefully this at least "gets you" in the door to try out Shugetsu! read more

The servers were very nice and accommodating but I agree with others that the menu is not very descriptive. I don't eat pork so I loved that they only use chicken broth, then I realized my tsukemen came with bits of pork all throughout. The menu doesn't really mention what it comes with so I had assume it would just be some broth with bamboo shoots. Otherwise the noodles were the perfect size and texture! read more

Solid tsukemen with fun anime vibes Visited Shugetsu and ordered their tsukemen, which really hit the spot. The portion was very generous, especially the noodles, and perfect if you're hungry. The dipping broth was rich and flavorful, pairing well with the chewy noodles. Service was quick and efficient, and everything came out fast even during busy hours. One fun touch was the anime-themed section inside--they have cute anime items and animal figures you can check out. It adds a playful, cozy vibe to the space. Overall, a great spot for satisfying tsukemen with fast service and a cute, anime-friendly atmosphere. Would come back again! read more

Love that Fremont finally has a dipping ramen (tsukemen) spot. Parking in the area was a little tough, but honestly, that was the only real downside. Everything else was great. Service was fast, there was plenty of seating, and the food was really solid. The noodles were nice and chewy, and the broth was rich and flavorful. My husband's gold standard for dipping ramen is Tsujita, so it didn't quite reach that level--but for the price, location, and basically no wait, it was absolutely worth it. I'd definitely come back, especially to try their non-dipping ramen next time. Overall, if you're a fan of dipping ramen--or curious to try it without committing to a long wait--this is a great option. Just plan a little extra time for parking. read more

I've always enjoyed shugetsu and I first tried them at their san mateo location. Really decent ramen but I've definitely had better. One thing about this location is their hours it's so short. They close too early if I'm being honest. I would definitely say that this location isn't as popular I don't think and that's just my personal opinion. It's tucked in, in a parking lot. We ordered the Shugetsu ramen and the tsukumen. Both were food ramen and they taste well. I do like to try different ramen places and when I do I like going to shugetsu. Their pork belly was good and the dipping ramen was tasty. All in all good service and good food. The restaurant itself looks like the one in san mateo and they have little cute toys by the bar area. read more

Heard about opening so had to check it out. Another tsukemen ramen place in the bay! This is located in the same area where Bill's Cafe is, and I think there was a German Deli by here before and a Ramen place (correct me if im wrong pls) Right at the parking lot you can already see the flashy signs, flags, lights, and can even here the music. This restaurant is very reminiscent of the flashy restaurant in Osaka by Odaiba. The inside is small but still had plenty of tables. I love the decor of anime figs especially Dragonball. Decor reminds me of On The Bridge Japanese restaurant in SF. The menu was simple, the service was quick on a busy lunch time, and our food arrived promptly. We got tsukemen and karaage. I do not think I have had tsukemen like this before but I still like it alot. The broth has the meat chunks instead of having a slice of pork on top of the noodles. Very flavorful, very strong, much umami. At the end of your meal you are asked if you want to top off your dipping broth with chicken broth for easier sipping. I went for it and it was delicious. Karaage was delicious, no complaints there too. Price was reasonable, ambience was casual, food was good. Overall highly recommend! read more

Didn't realize this was the old Yokohama ramen place until I went! Small parking lot now that Fremont bank had a remodel. Street parking is limited due to the new housing right next to it to so be wary of limited parking during peak hours~ Service was friendly and cute little spot. Food was decent! The texture of the noodles was great for me! Broth is seafood based so keep that in mind~ Do note there are different options for the tsukemen- noodles and toppings. I noticed some people complaining about no egg but the picture has eggs- there is a second tier option for both the regular and spicy miso for egg! The noodles have different sizes and can be hot or cold! Really brings me back to Japan hehe read more

We happened to be in central Fremont and wanted some noodles, so we stopped in to see if we could snag a table. Luckily there was a party just leaving, so we were seated within a few minutes, but this place was packed and stayed packed the entire time. We ordered a couple of appetizers -- edamame (my 3-year-old's current obsession) and chicken karaage. We were slightly surprised by them, maybe because we don't usually expect much from appetizers. The edamame was warm and seasoned perfectly, and the chicken was crunchy and juicy on the inside. We were obsessed. Shugetsu Tsukemen. The star of the show. There's a placard on every table with instructions about how to eat tsukemen if it's new to you. The noodles were chewy, and the dipping broth wasn't overly salty like it can be with some tsukemen. I do think it's wild that you can order any size for the same price. Talk about a bang for your buck! Shugetsu Ramen. I would skip the ramen and only get tsukemen here. The ramen broth -- strangely enough -- was overly salty and wasn't what we were expecting. Service was a bit spotty as they seemed busy with a constantly packed house. It was also particularly warm that day, and the lack of ventilation plus hot soup made everything a bit stifling. I also think it's a little strange that the restroom is in the middle of the restaurant, but I know that's not something they can easily control. Everyone will just see you standing in line, and you also need to be careful not to get in the workers' way as that's also the pathway to the kitchen. read more

Shugetsu - Charcoal pork ramen - Ramen Near Me - Fremont, California

We had lunch with some friends at Shugetsu. A new ramen restaurant in the Gaslight Square strip mall. The parking is really bad and the small lot fills up quickly because they are close to the popular Bill's Cafe. It is best to look for street parking if you come during peak hours. Ambience: Cute, similar to what you would see in Japan. Inside seating only. Maybe only a couple of large groups of people (8-10+). They do not serve alcohol. The decor was nice and anime-themed. There is only one unisex restroom. Make sure to take note of the highly informative decor inside. Service (2/5): As other reviewers have said, it was lacking. They need to check on their customers better and view their small restaurant better if they are standing around. I understand their restaurant is fairly new, just 3-4 months. But, you HAD 3 servers for this restaurant. Food: *Shugetsu Fried Chicken (5pc - no pic as we ate before the camera). Nicely fried and chucky pieces drizzled with a sauce (soy sauce, mirin, pepper flakes, maybe). *Charcoal Grilled Pork Belly Ramen (4/5). My wife got the large size. Served only with thin noodles by default. The broth is shoyu based. The pork belly was decent cuts and the char on them was delicious! *Shugetsu Tsukemen Special (with extra marinated egg & 3 pieces of pork slices. Chice of hot or cold noodles. 4/5). I ordered the mega noodles. It came with thicker noodles and the portion was massive! The dipping sauce was different. It wasn't the usual brownish vingerary tsukemen dipping broth like at usual places that serve tsukemen. This was an oily, soy sauce based sauce with meat & menma/bamboo pieces in it. At the end of my meal, they didn't even ask to add more broth. Another minus on their service. The food was good. Hopefully, management takes note of the bad reviews on lacking customer service.

Great dry/soupless Ramen in Fremont. The closest location to this before was in San Mateo and its great they opened one in Fremont! They took over Yokohama Lekei's spot in the same plaza as Bill's and while I'll miss it I do like the food here more. The menu is small and I find places like this tend to have higher quality. The notable thing is the proteins like chashu and pork belly are all grilled or charcoal smoked and have that distinct flavor you get from cooking like this. Tsukemen: Noodles are thicker and the dipping sauce is very dense and heavy. I liked this the most and if you are still hungry after you can ask for some hot water and rice to soak up the remaining dipping liquid and eat it. Ramen: This tasted good but we liked the thicker noodles with the tsukemen and next time we would ask for the the thicker noodles. Fried Chicken: Paler and slighlty sweeter than normal, would pass on this next time. read more

Came here during the first few weeks of their soft opening when they had limited hours. There was already a line outside, but you can put your name down, and the wait wasn't too long. Service was great, and staff were very friendly. There's a small parking lot in front. We started with the deep-fried chicken soft bones, which were excellent and the highlight of the meal. It had a hint of yuzu flavor that added a refreshing touch to the crispy, flavorful bites. I ordered the Shugetsu Tsukemen ($16) in the cold mega noodle size. The noodle size you choose comes at the same price, and the portion was massive. I barely made a dent and ended up bringing some home. The tsukemen broth was very concentrated, giving it a deep, rich flavor that perfectly complemented the noodles. The noodles themselves were good and held up well against the flavorful broth. read more

Shugetsu continues to deliver reliable quality, and their new menu additions are a welcome update. They've recently introduced Vegan Ramen, Miso Ramen, and Spicy Miso Ramen -- though it's worth noting that these new options currently come only with the regular noodle size, which may be limiting for those who prefer thicker or custom noodles. I ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen, and it was excellent. The broth had great depth and richness without being overwhelmingly spicy, striking a satisfying balance of heat and flavor. They opened at 11:30 a.m., and arriving at 11:38 a.m. meant we just beat the rush -- the dining room filled up quickly, which says a lot about how popular this spot remains. Shugetsu continues to be a dependable choice for flavorful ramen, and the new additions only strengthen an already solid menu. read more

Came here for dinner around 5:40 pm on a Saturday. There is a parking area outside of the restaurant. We were sat quickly, service was great. For food we got edamame, it was good to fill our stomachs while we waited. Can't really go wrong with salted edamame. We got 5 pc fried chicken, it's boneless and honestly it was so delicious. Pieces were big as well. We got takoyaki, so heartwarming and steaming hot so be careful but that is how takoyaki is so I expected it to be like that, it was very flavorful. We got the spicy miso tsukemen special with large size noodles, cold. ; and the shugetsu tsukemen special with XL noodle size, hot. very plentiful. The dip was so good and very flavorful. You can choose how much noodles you want with no extra charge. And choose if you want cold or hot noodles. The place is a good size but can get pretty busy when it is peak service hours. There is one bench to sit on to wait and a yelp waitlist if needed. Overall, for traditional tsukemen it is perfect. read more
